"just try weed bro" is the absolute worst most condescending advice you can give to someone suffering from chronic pain who didn't ask for advice.

Do you really, really think someone just "went to opiates" before trying absolutely everything to identify and treat the underlying cause?

CBD is not equal to THC, its not psychoactive at all. So no it is not “just try weed bro” and the fact you are so confident about something you know nothing about is quite shocking to be honest. Also opiates are over prescribed for many things they shouldn’t be, so yes a lot of doctor “just went to opiates” and it is literally ruining lives.

P.S. the only condescending person in this thread is you.

Thank you for your article. I am interested in the topic of how marijuana influences us. I usually take cbd hemp oil vape juice https://askgrowers.com/cbd/cbd-vaping/cbd-vape-juice when I have heightened anxiety and it always helps me. Now I want to try it for better sleep. So, I want to know if it is so useful in this case

Given that doctors regularly prescribe opiates and pretty much never prescribe cannabis that would seem highly plausible.

Depends on the medical system in whoever's country

It's really different depending on where you are

Also I think "weed" and "large doses of CBD" are really different things
