Hi all you fellow patients!

This is my first post here and I just wanted to stop in and say hi to you all, tell you a bit about myself and my passion for my medication.

My name is Bruce and I am a patient and caregiver. I am bipolar. I tried medications from the doctors but they just made me worse. They made me sick and the side effects were too much to handle. They made me want to kill myself even more. After years of going through that I decided to try cannabis. I had always been against it, like many people I believed the propaganda and thought it was pure evil. But I did my research and found out just how much it did for people like me. I went to my doctor, was referred to someone who could help, after several visits he gave me my recommendation and I have never looked back.

I first started just smoking it with a dry pipe, moved up to small bong. The smoke was too harsh for me, if I had been a little younger I would have enjoyed it more. So I bought a vaporizer, and I loved it! I use it everyday. Soon after I started to buy edibles from my local dispensary. I found that I didn't care for the taste, but the high it gave me was what I was looking for. After trying a few more edibles I decided to make my own.

Thank you all for reading and I hope you are all doing well and taking care of your loved ones

Bruce.

You're welcome bro! Just take it slow! :thumb:

Thanks, I know at least one company is giving away samples of their hemp wicks, but I only vape! ;)
 
I prefer vaping as well. Getting too old for the smoke myself :) I just the novelty of having a singed object from someone famous.
 
I'm sorry to hear that the doctor's medicine never worked and in fact made you feel worse. While the days of locking people up for even the most minor of physiological conditions is no longer the practice and drugs are better with less side-effects, we unfortunately do not live in a perfect world and not everyone has the fortune to have no side-effects. We can only hope that one day science will find that perfect cure-all, but I am glad that you have found something that helps. Even better, I'm glad you did your own research. Nothing is more important or more empowering than knowledge. So welcome to 420 chum! :welcome:
