I honestly knew nothing about medical marijuana

I truly didn’t know what to think at first when my parents decided to open up a cannabis dispensary.

  • At first it was all about medical marijuana because that is the program that was legal in our state.

Eventually, they decided to legalize recreational marijuana. I have to say that this was all very confusing to me because I was always taught at school about how marijuana is a gateway drug and it would surely lead you down the path to dangerous narcotics. I finally ended up talking to my parents about it and I even went to the cannabis dispensary and talked to some of the budtenders. I was amazed at how much I didn’t know about cannabis products and how they are incredibly beneficial for just about everybody. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing when I was learning about the endocannabinoid system. We all have it, and it regulates all the crucial functions in our bodies. The thing about THC and CBD is that they happen to be some of the most important cannabinoids and they help us improve various functions in our bodies. They help us to get better sleep at night, they help with muscle soreness and severe pain. Some people even get cannabis for chronic pain and I feel that I could benefit from that alone. I certainly do have trouble sleeping at night so now after learning more about the benefits of cannabis, I think I will give some of the products a try. If my own parents are advocates for the benefits of cannabis, I suppose it can’t be as bad as I used to think.
