0 RUREADY Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I am a bit leery of this. yes the VA is allowing TRIALS, this does not mean you can start going to the shrink and asking for a dispensary card. This will be a limited study, and i can guarantee the results will be either "inconclusive" or will be 10 years, 20 years down the road (and will probably read like this) "more testing is necessary to establish the efficacy of this treatment option for the general population of Veterans suffering from PTSD and other mental trauma".I am willing to put quite a few sawbucks on this, the VA will not allow weed for treatment for a very long time, and even if they do will be a pharmaceutical concoction of active ingredients they identify as helpful, they will never ever ever start allowing the smoking or ingestion of the plant, only its ingredients in a pill.I will bet you on that you should read the news its already going on for pain treatment they study me all the time just like a ct scan of chest for back pain problem but its nothing there .Less side effects and it grows wild and if that's your choice just remember if you are getting narcotic pills and tell your doctor you are self medicating on pot your pills will be cut offIt is some centers that actually give it to some patients but its all who you know. Don't like it your choice just don't knock it from the ones it help I'm one who it helps Vetsforvets and Harley-1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried it, never liked it, however my personal opinions on drugs are that you should be free to smoke, shoot, snort and scarf anything you want. Its not harming me. However if you decide to break into my house to feed that, then theres been an actual crime committed, the theft, not the smoking.My leeriness is not based on my opinions on right/wrong of drug use, but of the va allowing a drug maligned by the very same government, as well as actually doing something positive and efficient.
