    I've only had a couple attacks, but it was some of the scariest stuff I ever felt. In that moment you can't help but think you're dying. I'd rather smoke than take prescription anxiety or depression meds honestly. Maybe not a suitable replacement for everyone , but something to consider.

    Yeah certain strains affect you differently. I typically get sativa but occasionally I have to get indica because different types aren't widely available here. Basically you get what they have. I can't wait for it to be legalized and we can just pick the kind that best suits our needs.

    Thanks for sharing that story, I wish the best for your mother, and I'm glad that it seemed to be curing her temporarily. I do believe Marijuana is definitely medicinal on some ways, but I also see others points on people claiming that they are ill, and smoking it. Both sides are debatable really, I actually have a story I was in my english class about a month back, I had a substitute it was this small african lady who was a bit older, some how the topic of marijuana came a long, and she just completely trashed it, she was saying all this stuff about how it ruins lives (Which is true at the moment due to the criminal laws around marijuana), and how people claim it's medicine, but it's just drug abuse. I disagree completely, exactly what Bayrock said, there is a place for it. I've honestly grown closer to my family ever since they started bringing me along on sessions on weekends, I walk over to my cousins house and grab a few edibles out the fridge, it's a normal thing now, and I don't see anything wrong with it. I also don't see the big deal over how it's still criminalized, the government can tax it once it's legal, which means more money for the greedy bastards anyway. Also, I've just seen this website that is claiming that more tax came from marijuana then from alcohol http://time.com/4037604/colorado-marijuana-tax-revenue/ . I honestly don't see the point of it being illegal still, but personally either way, it's still going to be a part of my life.

    Funny thing is that red republican led states are trying to trash Colorado and Washington for passing that law. Yet their own states are so impoverished that passing a similar law would completely revitalise the state. The hypocrisy is overwhelming at times because you have the politicians that are bought and paid for by the pharmaceutical industry. That's the only reason it is still illegal, politics. Next time you are talking to someone who is trashing marijuana, the best way to get back at them is like this. Ask them "How many people die per year from ingesting marijuana?". More than likely they will not know the answer and probably try to guess that it's in the hundreds of thousands or possibly millions. Then tell them that not only are they wrong about how many people die a year, but the number is the same every year. Zero. No one in history has died directly from the use of marijuana. the only bad thing about it is that it is illegal. A kid can get caught with marijuana and he will have a criminal history for the rest of his life which will effect him getting college loans, getting a decent job, and will prevent him from getting a home loan and possibly deny his application to rent an apartment as well. All because he wanted to smoke a plant that harms no one.

    There are two great documentaries about marijuana. The Culture High and it's older compatriot made by the same people a few years earlier The Union: The Business Behind getting High. Both of which I've linked to a full length video on youtube. Both are very well made and show a lot of the history of it all. If anyone is ever curious on the topic, I would recommend watching them both.

    *Edit* I forgot to mention that the first minutes of The Culture High really set the tone for the whole documentary. A swat team breaks into a house and shoots the family dog dead. All because there was trace amounts of marijuana found in their trash. The father pleaded guilty and was fined $300 for possession. "We can't live in a society that is free and also drug-free" follows right after.

    The culture high is better actually only because it was made by the same people.

    I just watched The Culture High. Really great documentary, and I totally agree with the messages it sends.

    Super strong examples and lessons in that one.

    If I had to choose one over the other, it would have to be sativa. There's nothing better than smoking some awesome sativa bud on a nice sunny day (rare in England).

    Sucks that I can't choose what I want around here. It's just a take what you can get kind of atmosphere. I do prefer Sativa for the most part as It's uplifting. But If I can't sleep or I'm in pain, Indica is the way to go. I actually just bought some last week hoping that it was Sativa only to find out after a 3 hour nap that it was Indica.

    I grew up smoking Trainwreck but it usually leaves me with a dry mouth which just bugs me. Bought some GSC recently but was unpleased because it's SO overhyped.

    Since I live in an illegal state, I can't get my hands on specific strains whenever I want. It's always just whatever is available at the time. I got some stuff called "Grapefruit" yesterday and a few weeks ago it was called "Mr. Nice Guy". Smelled exactly the same so hard to tell if that's the real name or if my guy just named it that to make it sound good.

    In my city you can get pretty much anything, it's just finding the right person, police don't really care but it is illegal, hopefully that'll change soon though, I got some Cherry AK but it's dealt in 1.6 for £20 so it's pricey compared to others

    Damn that's outrageous pricing... that better be some next level shit.

    I rarely smoke anymore but the last bag I picked up I paid £20 and it weighed out at 2.56, great grade too. Gotta love when your mates start dealing and are generous af to you haha

    I usually only pay £20 for 1.6 if it's strawberry haze but it was like dynamite so i'd definitely pay that price for it again, he said he'll do me full grams if I buy weights but fuck that, i like variety

    What's everyone paying for a q where you guys live? I just bought for $70 and it's definitely feeling a bit pricey but apparently high quality.
