From a personal point of view, CBD didn't seem to work. But it is yet another thing the government is taking away from us.

They have some warped ideas of drugs. I would say Victorian, but the Victorians were far more enlightened.

 

Nothing for it. I shall have to become a keen gardener. :halo:

Running over the same old ground.

What have we found?

The same old fears.

Hi Paul, good to see your around again! :hippy: Without going off-topic too much, I hope you're well and that you haven't had anything serious going on?

 

To be honest, the two or three CBD oils I tried didn't seem to do much for me either. On the other hand, I've heard of several MSers who've said it's really helped them.

 

It seems a bit ridiculous to slap a medicinal licence onto something that's otherwise legal. Only the one or two big boys in the CBD business will be able to afford it. Maybe GW Pharma didn't want too much competition to their own upcoming CBD oil.

Agree with what you say; would just add that it should be OUR choice not proscribed by government or medics. Cannabis is safe like alcohol when used in moderation.
