unfortunately it's not legal for medicinal purposes here in NC. has that stopped me from self-medicating? nope. it's been a source of disagreement between my husband and me, but only because it's illegal and he doesn't want me to get busted. i have to lie to my parents and my daughter about it, which stinks. they're vehemently anti-drug. it would be different if i had insurance, or could afford to see my doctor on a regular basis and get prescriptions filled. grievously, i am one of those people who fall squarely between the cracks. if i didn't have some sort of pain relief once in a while, i probably would have killed myself by now. as far as side effects go, once in a while i get paranoid, and sometimes i get energetic and try to do too much around the house. usually it just dulls the pain enough that i can do everyday chores, or i curl up and take a nap. i'll step down off my soap box now  |
