Re: Cannabis

My children used to find it hard to credit that neither I nor their dad had ever tried cannabis in the 60s. I did point out to them that when pot was everywhere (my daughter says the only people who still call it pot are me and Paul McCartney) we were too busy changing their nappies etc. The point is, pot was relatively innocuous compared to the stuff that's around today and less likely to do so much harm.

Who's to say Cannabis is more harmfull the Alcohol in the mentally department.

IMO its down to the user whatever the drug, how far they take it.

If I was to smoke a whole load of weed, I would feel sick, throw up, be ill or go asleep or Whitey as the saying goes.

If I was to drink a whole load of Alcohol I could poison myself to where I need URGENT medical attention.

Which is worse?
I agree with that!! How many times have we heard of people dying by choking on their own vomit after a shed load of booze, and other related diseases, Kidney failure, fatty liver etc .......

AND Alcohol abuse CAN be worse for you than Cannabis. Lewy Body Dementia is usually the outcome of Alcohol abuse.

Re: Cannabis

Me was once offered drugs - and said no thanks i take enough as it is... next oh which one you take have you got some on you now - i said i take phenobarbiton and theyre at home in the bottle that the pharmacist gives to me every time i take a prescription in to him. Never touched illegal drugs - the only ones that i take are the ones the docs give to me and i have enough hassles sometimes taking them!!!

Re: Cannabis

I saw a rather interesting documentary on TV. the reporter spent a month working in a cafe in Amsterdam, researching cannabis during her time off under medical supervision. The first joint she smoked made her violently sick because she wasn't used to it and smoked the full joint all at once. The next day, she smoked a different one and smoked it slowly. She was happy and relaxed.
She likened the weed to drinking red wine or spirits. The different sorts had different effects.
Test were done in a lab with her smoking and a test was done with her driving under the influence of drink with these dolls lined up had the dolls been babies they would have been dead. The drink had made her over confident.
Then she drove under the influence of weed. She was very cautious and more a danger to her self. The dolls were OK. It was concluded that reports in the paper were ott in reports of it causing any serious damage and the worse to smoke is skunk that's not mixed with tobacco.
I smoked it everyday all day for a long time and had no problems stopping. Wish it was as easy to give up tobacco. The only time i miss it is when i have a bad headache or am in a lot of pain with my arthritis.

Re: Cannabis

Thought I would bring this back into the debate, as since it was posted, Cannabis has been classified back to Class B.

Can you see any differences from when it was a class C?

This is one substance (HEMP) that is being so miss informed on its shocking. The uses that this could bring into the modern world should be allowed to be developed much more than it is now.

Propoganda is why its being classed as being so bad as it would be a danager to other Multi Million ££ $$ Business's.

The medical benefits need to be looked into more aswell.

I say Decrimanalise (SP). Not re Class, Even most police (The Good Ones) will not bother with cannabis as they know and see the real truth.

Re: Cannabis

I have recently looked into the nutritional and health benefits of hemp, and they are quite astounding.
The problem lies in that the public perception of the whole of the genus of hemp plants, and there are several varieties, has been coloured by misuse and criminalisation of use.

In Uk there is a farm producing hemp oil - and you can now buy it in supermarkets labelled Good Oil.

It has to pass rigorous gov tests to ensure that it does not contain any mind altering substance. It is better for health than cod liver oil and has good protein content.

You can use it as a skin moisturiser too.

I am having 3 big bottles delivered from Sainsburys next week
