I'm from California where it's very legal, moved to Utah where it's very illegal. When I first moved here u couldn't even use it medicinally thank God I'm not a huge fan of the way it makes my head fog up. However at lower dosages (lower thc% and higher cbd) it truly does help me. I'm a huge fan of cbd and became a fan after my knees both being replaced I used it for the first knee but not the second and OMG the differences were huge! I used cbd that was derived from hemp not from Marijuana still very illegal at that time. I did just find out that my regular MD is one of the few Dr's here that can prescribe it. I'm thinking about asking her. Not sure yet

Definitely a life saver for me, most people would use an indica to combat chronic pain. I'm wired different so the sativa or a hybrid is best for me

I'm in a state where Medical Marijuana is legal. I have never smoked and was unable to smoke or vape the marijuana. So I use gummies. It does help for pain and is very helpful for sleep. I am allergic to opiates so the only painkillers for me are Aleve and marijuana. The gummies take an hour to an hour and a half to kick in. Also they can sometimes vary in strength. I pretty much know what I need now for pain and sleep. The only side effect I've had is dizziness when I first started using it and that was because I was still determining my dose. I no longer have the dizziness.
