Quote:What I meant applies to the Florida law: high-THC marijuana is a tough sell to voters who don't want it legalized, partly because of the potential for abuse by people in search of a high, instead of medical relief. High-CBD, low-THC concentrates are more acceptable because they don't get you high, and the medical benefits, especially for children, are proven. Clearly, that becomes a political discussion. My apologies if mentioning it the way I did was introducing political content, that was not my intent.

 

I said it's a shame because my experience with high-THC cannabis tells me it is very effective in relieving my particular symptoms as compared to lower THC strains. Admittedly, the inferior strains may be lower in CBDs, too. Also, in my case, and some studies corroborate, I've built up a tolerance to the psychoactive effects (the "high")  of THC without developing a need for higher levels to manage my symptoms. There is also evidence of a symbiotic effect between THC and CBDs, in which each enhances the other's benefit, as well as CBDs reducing the psychoactive effect of THC.
