That's the only one of your definitions that fits marijuana at all and that's the phony one the prohibitionists made up to associate marijuana with dangerous addictive drugs. Are you sure you want to call marijuana a narcotic? It's detrimental to getting the stuff legalized.

I never said it wasn't - only that it wasn't for me. Of course, aspirin wasn't invented until 1897, four years before Victoria died, which didn't give the queen's physicians a lot of choices. It was either cannabis or opiates.

Yeah, and I'm sure they don't want the Queen of Britain to be smoking opiates!

Let's just claim that. We'll be like, "What?! Queen Victoria smoked it!"



Seriously though, that's messed up.

Medicinal cannabis and opium were administered as alcoholic tinctures, not smoked.

I'd rather claim the Gandalf smoked it in Lord of the Rings. "And he's a f***ing Wizard! yeah!"

Which reminds me, someone was saying on the wooden pipe thread how they wanted a long stemmed wizards pipe, which would be totally sweet.

Such pipes are readily available. The style is called "churchwarden".

If only it were! I experience chronic back pain. Marijuana doesn't help a bit. Doesn't work for headaches, either. I think the analgesic effects of marijuana are very idiosyncratic and depend a great deal on set and setting, i.e. you have to believe it's going to work that way for it to work that way. Opiates work whether you believe in them or not.
Man, I feel bad for you. GOOD WEED(keep in mind I grow my own dank, and the thc content is off the charts) makes me a little dumb everytime I get real high. If I dont smoke for a day or two(rare) and then I smoke a fat J to myself of my shit, I am more numb then if I just injected 1000CCs of novicaine. Also, I too have back problems and occassional headaches and weed blows; aspirin, ib profen, opium, and tylenol out of the water. Only thing that is a better painkiller(FOR ME) is some strong vicodin, which im not a fan of due to its narcotic potential.
BTW: I'm not at all doubting what you said, but drugs have different effects on different people and apprently I get MESSED UP while you only get buzzed from weed.


And for the record, weed is NOT a narcotic, hence the no getting addicted.

You really have no relief as far as headaches go? Is that true for all methods (including culinary ones?)

The kind of high I appreciate makes me more aware of my aches and pains. I'm into Sativas and vaporizers. Heavy indicas put me to sleep. I don't know if they kill pain because I'm too out-of-it to know much of anything. While being unconscious is probably preferable to being in pain, I prefer painkillers that allow me to function more-or-less normally.

I do yoga when I get high. The greater awareness of what hurts and structurally why it hurts helps me to do the yogic postures that will relieve the pain.

For sinus headaches, the only kind I get, two ibuprofen and two pseudoephedrine do a fine job.

I don't know. I don't eat marijuana because I'm after the cerebral high, not the body stone. I don't notice any difference, pain-wise, between vaping and smoking.

If you prefer the Sativas, then I suppose it's no supprise that you get no significant relief. And if a few ibuprofen do the trick, there's no reason to knock yourself out, especially since it is virtually harmless in low doses.
