So I'm curious if it feels like Cannabis helps me focus more and put me in a state where i can safely say i read the bible and can understand it a bit better while on the stuff.. Is it still considered sinful if it can help someone like me do that?
Usually I'm very autistic and my mind tends to get bored rather easy and starts to wander.. but with cannabis it helps me focus and during that time I usually am focus on the bible.
I've been using cannabis for medical purposes for a few years. Here are some of my thoughts:
1) when you use "too much" it can
definitely have negative effects, like increased anxiety, which cannot be compared to other
things like alcohol. cannabis is not harmless. if you smoke it in huge amounts you're setting yourself up for negative experiences.
2) everybody should try to find his individual dose, which does not cause any negative side effects, i use a fine scale to measure
my dose. my single dose is usually around 40mg. when i first started i didn't really know how much to use and i used doses
which were too high and i definitely noticed negative effects.
3) i'd advise nobody to smoke it. i'd use a vaporizer. this guarantees a slower delivery and this way you can also dose much finer.
4) with cannabis it's just like with alcohol. know your limits! imagine you drink half a bottle of wine at once then you'll be drunk
in no time. this is not how you do it. BUT if you have a glass of wine then you won't have any negative side effects. people need
to use their brains and be responsible!
5) cannabis strains play a HUGE role. every strain is different and works different. it's not just the THC content but also the terpene
profile. terpenes play a huge role, too. this is what sucks a bit. on the one hand there are so many strains to choose from, but at
the same time finding good strains can be hard. it's also possible that you find a good strain and then it's discontinued.
6) for me cannabis sometimes (not always, i dont know why) can have REALLY positive effects, like feeling calmer and having a
strange sense of well-being. sometimes within a few minutes i feel calm and then i also find it much easier to talk to God cause
my mind isn't so restless. but these effects only occur sometimes, which sucks. sometimes i don't get any positive effects and
it only cost me money.
7) i know some christians say that cannabis is bad alltogether, but is it? then what about other natural substances which can also
have negative effects when you take too much? what about st.john's wort? if you abuse SJW then you can also mess yourself up.
or what about coffee? you can also kill yourself with too much coffee.
people need to use their brains and act responsible. it's the same with alcohol. i do not avise getting drunk and damaging your liver
and the rest of your body. but if you for example like sipping on a whiskey just for the taste of it then i see nothing wrong with it.
there are many other comparable examples. just take chocolate or ice cream. if a person eats a bucket of ice cream at once or eats
an entire bar of chocolate within seconds like normal food then such a behavior is destructive!
i have a problem with 250 pound pastors who like to tell others that alcohol is bad or that cannabis is bad but overeating is no
problem at all... LOL
