OIC. You're right. I didn't know it was separated from the weed and couldn't make a person high.You obviously do not understand what CBD is.

I am one of those weird people who don't mind feeling like my natural self
Yep, and those are usually better off with some drug.some people that are mentally ill are actually feeling their natural selves.
I just checked and Amazon has CBD products, just like pretty much everythng else!I would still be taking CBD if I could find a reliable, reputable source.
That’s why I drink caffeine free Diet Pepsi, though not quite the quantity you describe.I used to use THC to help me fall asleep. Once I stopped drinking 12 diet Pepsi a day I no longer need help to fall asleep. I was so dumb I had no idea that diet Pepsi were the cause of my insomnia.
Caffeine Free Diet Pepsi did not exist in the 70s when I was mainlining DP. It was introduced in 1982 as Pepsi Free and I tried it and thought it sucked.That’s why I drink caffeine free Diet Pepsi, though not quite the quantity you describe.

Boy do I love reading these success stories. It makes it all worthwhile. In the mid 90s I worked with Dennis Peron to help get Proposition 215 passed. It was the first piece of legislation in the world that legalized medical marijuana. It passed by a landslide much to the shock of the conservative community. Most people have no idea how the legalization of medical marijuana started. It began in San Francisco in the 90s when many gay people in San Francisco were suffering from AIDs. They could not eat, drink or take the massive amounts of medications that were required to live a normal lifestyle. As most people know pot gives you the "munchies". By using medical marijuana it was an amazing transformation in their life. They could now eat, drink and take their meds. So the gay community in SF banded together and changed the laws and live a more normal life. You can read about it here:When I was going through my cancer treatments I tried various cannibis products.
I found that CBD in various forms did very little for me, but products containing THC helped with the pain from the surgery and radiation, helped me maintain my appetite and also helped me sleep. Usually 10-20 mg of THC was very effective. Much more than that would get me higher than I wanted to be. I once tried 100mg of THC in a chocolate bar and I've never been so high on cannabis in my life! And I was a pot smoker for most of my life!
On the other hand I have a close friend that has nerve issues from almost being electrocuted many years ago. For him CBD is a miracle drug. It helps relieve the lingering pain, and helps with the tremors he gets in his hands.
So maybe doctors rarely prescribe it because it is rarely effective and not out of fear?Yes prescriptions are rare because many doctors are afraid the government will do something to them. I have tried CBD many times but it never works for me.
Millions of people in the 37 states that have legalized medical marijuana would disagree with that.So maybe doctors rarely prescribe it because it is rarely effective and not out of fear?
So anything that has been made legal means that it is effective for a large percentage of peopleMillions of people in the 37 states that have legalized medical marijuana would disagree with that.

I prefer treatments that solve the problem and not just hide it.Well I don't see any difference between being helpful and feeling better.
