finding the right mj for my medical issue

[lady_sakura]

I am new here! i am not sure if this is the right place to ask, but if it isn't i am hoping the moderator could move my question to the appropriate place. i was reading in another post about different ailments marijuana has, i am 23, never smoked it but got high from smelling it. since i saw the properties about what mj has and never knew about it, i was wondering about the omega 3s in mj? i would hear ppl who smoke pot say weed makes me smart!

i read that mj seems to i was reading inretain info in ur long term memory. does info stay in ur long term memory after u smoke mj? the reason i wanna smoke mj is because of its different medical properties it has. my prob is i believe i am suffering from MS and i have been having a bad memory since i was younger. i cant really retain info in my long term memory because it it stays in my short term all the time.

i am wondering what mj is good for me? i really cant get medical mj here in Arizona because it isn't offered here and growing it would be out of the question lol. high times or treating yourself that mj is great for adhd people, which is somethin i strongly believe i have since i have struggled with academic issues all my life. does anyone have any links about people's success with memory issues using mj?

omega fatty acids (3, 6 & 9) are found in any significant degree in cannabis SEED not in the whole plant matter. You do not smoke the seed. The oils in it are nasty on the lungs.

Hemp seed is the only known complete natural single source human chow in that it has everything essential for humans to live (not everything we can use just everything we must have) and in the perfect balance to sustain human life. Eating hemp seed is good for the central nervous system.

Eating hemp seed would be beneficial to your condition most likely. If you actually have MS cannabis can help fight it. I have a great article in TY issue#8 (http://www.treatingyourself.com/pdf/Issue8.pdf) on MS and cannabis that you might want to read. Be patient as it takes a while to load. The article starts on page 24. :)

Marijuana Therapy for Veterans with PTSD (http://www.benefitsofmarijuana.com/ask/reader-questions/marijuana-therapy-for-veterans-with-ptsd/)

June 3rd, 2008 Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) afflicts at least twenty thousand
U.S. veterans. There is no known cure for PTSD. Common treatments include counseling and sedating drugs. They are just a stop gap treatment until a real remedy is found. Marijuana Therapy is that remedy! It definitely helps the symptoms of PTSD, and over a long course of treatment, may even cure it. But that doesn’t matter to the U.S. Government. With severe emotional trauma, the brain region called the amyglia becomes destabilized. Its function of filtering out past horrible memories does not work. The person keeps reliving the horror over and over again. Amazingly, fortunately and definitely, Marijuana Therapy restores balance to the amyglia. Within this part of the brain, there are many cannabinoid receptors which can be restarted through the cannabinoid compounds (like THC) in marijuana. For some reason, with the shock of the horrific event, the natural brain cannabinoids become ineffective – or are not produced in sufficient quantity – or maybe the receptors themselves become dysfunctional. So far the scientists do not have that answer. But it is proven that the (cannabis/marijuana) plant cannabinoids restore the functioning of the amyglia!!!!! which then can do its job of filtering out the emotions of the past horrific event. This is the experience of the thousands of veterans suffering from PTSD who attest to the relief that Marijuana Therapy imparts to them!!! The truth of this wonderful and safe ancient remedial plant for PTSD first began to surface with the Vietnam Vets. But the government turned the same deaf ear to those veterans then as now. It will not even address the issue. As a matter of fact, the government only recently admitted there is such a thing as Post Traumatic Stress! caused by the horrors of war.
For everyone who suffers from PTSD – for whatever reason – Marijuana Therapy has been shown to be very effective and safe. Not like the talking therapies which have a dismal record of helping trauma victims, and nothing like the dangerous, numbing, and addictive, but legal drugs that cost a fortune and deaden one’s mind. BTW: it just so happens, that starting in 2004, the Israeli army began to conduct controlled studies with Marijuana Therapy for PTSD. They heard tell from their soldiers that it worked. Preliminary findings actually resulted in government-issue THC for their soldiers. That’s right!! Israeli soldiers are given THC as part of their rations!
thats from her book
the benefits of marijuanna
a must read

the reason i wanna smoke mj is because of its different medical properties it has. my prob is i believe i am suffering from MS and i have been having a bad memory since i was younger. i cant really retain info in my long term memory because it it stays in my short term all the time.
Ladd H. (47) of Iowa, lives with the pain of multiple sclerosis, has been approved to use cannabis therapeutics under the government's compassionate IND program, but the final forms were delayed and did not get processed by the time the program was shut down. He smokes cannabis to relieve constant pain and stop his muscle spasms.
Kenneth R. ( 42) of Ohio, has multiple sclerosis. A U.S. Veteran, he uses cannabis to combat severe spasticity and to restore his balance. Although he has had limited success with conventional medication, Cannnabis makes him feel “normal.”

there is scientific studdies that support these claims

i am wondering what mj is good for me? i really cant get medical mj here in Arizona because it isn't offered here and growing it would be out of the question lol. high times or treating yourself that mj is great for adhd people, which is somethin i strongly believe i have since i have struggled with academic issues all my life. does anyone have any links about people's success with memory issues using mj?
i would guess any Indica would be a good start
but tis a strictly personal choise

There were so many studies that displayed very helpful effects from administration of marijuana – in varying forms, for all kinds of mental expressions of disease,
such as SAD, ADD, ADHD, bi-polarity, depression, etc.,

The only real option is to grow your own.

Sadly and depending upon where ya live in AZ your only real choice to do grow your own. Since you needs meds bad you need to get a hold of some af's to do up..75-80days from seed to smoke. Watch out for Sherriff Butthead in Maricopa County...

It's not always true that pot when growing has a strong odor to it.. Not till flower time really. AF's are callled Auto Flowering. No wasted time having to sex them out.Males generally appear in 17- 21 days form start.. Scottsdale is a huge town .Look under the couch cushions and scratch up some change and go get your self a grow book. "Closet Cultivator" by Ed Rosenthal is very very informative on all aspects of the plant grow cycle.. Best of luck.. If you decide to garden indoors minimal lighting I would use is 250w hps and that would only really work well for 1-2 plants. Do an Amazon.com for that Rosenthal book. it might be cheaper under the "used" section..

You will learn many tricks from the books, it's good to get an understanding first before jumping in. As far as smell...Your gonna need a carbon filter and an exhaust fanaswell as a light and a timer. The filter will take your smelly air and turn it into a more neutral smell, the investment really lies in your equipment, once you have those basics you will have the ability to add on. Any good beginning grow book will go over how to get you set up, If there are any questions we are gladly here to help.
