I'm on 17 different meds a day. Pain meds, depression meds, anxiety meds, sleeping meds, ADD meds & meds for neuropathy. I'm a walking pharmacy.
It's dawned on me recently, & more often in frequency, that I could lose most, if not all of my meds if weed were legalized. Now, I'm in Oklahoma, where we sell 3.2% beer & you have to buy wine from a liquor store. Marijuhana legalization is probably not going to happen for at least 50 years in my state.
As a teen, I smoked pot. Not my proudest moments but, ya know.... I don't like the way it made me feel & smoking it is kinda bad for my asthma. It occurs to me that, with the legalization in other states & other methods of delivery, if we could legalize it here, even if just medicinally, I could potentially solve most of my problems. My anxiety & depression, my pain, my nausea...poof.
I'd love for this to end happily for me. My meds have caused me to gain 100 lbs, have screwed with other functions, & has cost me a fortune.
This was just a thought running thru my head today as I lay writhing in pain & anxious from the night terrors. Oklahoma has an advocate for legalization or decriminalization- Connie Johnson. I do so hope you'll join me in helping her get elected starting in August.
