+1 UPGRADE for cannabis.

But THC is just the tip of the iceberg for compounds in cannabis that make you " high" Cbd, Cdb Cbb Thca/thc, hundreds..

There is nothing that a little marijuana doesn't make better. Pain, insomnia, eating disorders, eyes, depression, hyperactivity, even sexual problems.

I guess if you are a paranoid schizophrenic it may be bad.

A great organization:

MAPS (Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies)
MMAPS' mission is 1) to treat conditions for which conventional medicines provide limited relief—such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), pain, drug dependence, anxiety and depression associated with end-of-life issues—by developing psychedelics and marijuana into prescription medicines; 2) to treat many thousands of people by building a network of clinics where treatments can be provided; and 3) to educate the public honestly about the risks and benefits of psychedelics and marijuana.

MDMA for PTSD
MAPS’ top priority project is funding clinical trials of methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) as a therapeutic tool to assist psychotherapy for the treatment of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and other illnesses. Preliminary studies have shown that MDMA in conjunction with psychotherapy can help people overcome PTSD. MDMA has empathogenic effects, and it is also known as the popular drug Ecstasy (although "Ecstasy" does not always contain pure MDMA). In laboratory studies, MDMA has been proven sufficiently safe for human consumption when taken a limited number of times in moderate doses.

LSD/Psilocybin for Anxiety Related to Life-threatening Illness
LSD is short for d-lysergic acid diethylamide, and was discovered to be a psychedelic substance by Dr. Albert Hofmann on April 19, 1943. Psilocybin is a psychedelic compound also discovered by Hofmann which are found in psychedelic mushrooms. These mushrooms have been used for thousands of years by a variety of indigenous cultures for a variety of religious and therapeutic purposes. Both of these substances are well known for eliciting personal growth and mystical experiences in people who use them wisely. MAPS is interested in these substances for their potential to help people with a variety of conditions. Currently we are focused on developing these drugs into prescription medicines to treat anxiety associated with life-threatening illnesses.

Though there has been substantial prior research with LSD in cancer patients that demonstrated safety and some degree of efficacy, that research was conducted over 35 years ago. In order to generate data that will be accepted by today’s regulatory agencies, new protocols must meet modern drug development standards. Our research has had to start from scratch and has been designed carefully. Our LSD and psilocybin studies will be used to guide the development of future treatment approaches.

I was going to say the same thing. I hate it when they make the claim that THC is the only compound in grass that gets you high. In fact, increasing the potency of marijuana by increasing only the THC leads to more "paranoid" weed. You need the other compounds to mellow it out.

You can beat the science drum all you want. My expirence is that Pot is no longer an option for me because of my ptsd. I was a recreational user (4 times a week) through my teens and twenties, and even a little while I was in the service, but as soon as I suffered my first incident and became aware of my disorder, pot became the last thing I wanted to touch. When I smoked it my paranoia was through the roof, to the point were I would get anxiety attacks. This made sense to me after my shrink had told me what had happened to the chemical function of my brain. I'm effectivly supercharged to the point that the most benign stimulation will send me over the edge. Either with anxiety, or prolonged enporhine disharges that usually result in flying into a rage and pumeling some sap. Weed has always acted as that little push that sends me into anxiety fits. I haven't touched the stuff in about four years, and I used to love smoking, and tripping. Now those things
