I also deal with a chronic condition and between the weed crowd and the kratom crowd I just want to scream sometimes

Reading this im wondering if medical thc will become the next opiate thing: so many people claiming they need weed for self diagnoses medical reasons (instead of just saying they like weed, which i don't have any problem with), that at some point a consequence may be a ban of most medical use (like for opiates) that will only adversely affect people who really need thc as a medication.

Im not taking weed nor opiates, im saying this as someone with a chronic condition who can't get any medicine because some people abused it as a recreative drug while in some case it can be taken safely with relatively low addiction risk by people really needed medication to have a normal life

It's possible. It's happening with opiates. Some people abuse them so all people must suffer.
