I have a question. I was wandering if anyone would be interested in me beginning a study and documenting it. The study will be the "Use of Marijuana to treat psychological diosorders.
A little background....
My wife is suffering from Bipolar Disorder with Manic Depressive episodes. She has had this since she was young. Over the last 10 years she has gone through several different prescription medications, which by the way are NOT CHEAP. 230 / month is the cost of the latest one. They in my mind are not effective as they should be. There are also several side effects she has to deal with, one being weight Gain.
My idea:
I have been a long time smoker and my wife has accepted this part of my life although she does not smoke herself. I have been trying different strains of high grade pot and examining thier effects on my mood, my functionality, and my overall health. I believe certain strains of MJ could help her more than these "man made" alternatives, with less side effects as well.
My Question:
I plan on pitching her this for a trial period and ask her to go off her prescription stuff and trey MJ to guage its usefullness in treating this disorder. I would like to know if there are people here interested in seeing this study in a "journal" type discussion. We could all do this together type thing......interest?
