The American Alliance for Medical Cannabis is debating medical marijuana on the Opposing Views forum. This is one of the rare places that drug warriors actually show up to debate. AAMC claims that medical marijuana treats the symptoms of ADHD. Without divulging too much of my personal life I’ll have to agree whole heartedly by saying that I’ve experienced the benefits first-hand.
After giving Jeffrey marijuana, the results were immediate.
“Within a half hour,” Debbie says, “I looked over at Jeffrey, and he just had this smile about him, this glow, and he said, ‘Mommy, I feel happy.’ And that’s the first time that he’s ever said that.”
“Jeff has been diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, which is ADHD; oppositional defiant disorder; conduct disorder; intermittent explosive disorder; bipolar disorder - any disorder you can think of,” says Debbie, a single mother.
It will be interesting to see how drug warriors can argue against these claims. Most ADHD symptoms are now treated with psycoactive drugs, antidepressants and stimulants as a first course of action. These drugs, Ritalin, Concerta, Straterra, Adderall, Wellbutrin, etc., have serious side effects and/or abuse potential. Ritalin and Adderall and their derivatives are scheduled narcotics.
Marijuana provides a non-toxic, effective alternative treatment for ADHD with a low potential for abuse (when compared with amphetamines.) There’s no logical reason why Ritalin is legally prescribed to children when people who provide medical marijuana to suffering children are treated like hardened criminals.
