  Have you already tried Benadryl/unisom/valerian for sleep? All are over the counter. Get generic for Benadryl/unisom so dipphenhydramine and doxylamine succinate- it will save some money.
  
  CBD is good for pain in my experience. I never officially used medical marijuana/had a card for that. I come from a weed legal state so anyone 21+ can buy weed. Where I was they'd label what was in the weed so if you aren't trying to get high you can find something like 9% cbd 1% thc which is useless if you wanna get high but good for pain/anxiety. I have heard cbd can kill cancer but I am not sure of that.

  CBD also comes in pill form and oil form.. I think getting it as the plant is the best bang for your buck though.

  ^ if one gets it as the plant I assume that means smoking it?

  You can now buy portable Vapes that vape the dry herb. Or "edibles" like weed brownies etc. But I think inhaling is the best way. I have tried CBD oil that you just drop in your mouth, but it is not as effective.. I assume pills are the same.

  Papi_Chulo - I use marijuana both recreationally and medicinally.
  
  I use it medicinally for nausea, anxiety, PMS and cramping in general, body pain, and insomnia.
  
  I also use it recreationally; sometimes it's to unwind after working either of my jobs, similar to how people with pour themselves a glass of wine, scotch, or have a beer (etc) after a hard day's work. I often will just use it because I like the effects of a marijuana high, and it is not like other drugs that have life-ruining addiction potential.
  
  Much safer than prescription pain meds which tend to be opiates. Opiates carry high potential for abuse. Opiate abuse is terrible.
  
  Thanks shadowcat for the link. I remember it being discussed recently.

  shadow - I remembered I had posted something about MM b/f but didn't remember the details.
  
  Does anyone know if one needs a MM card to buy that CBD oil?

  If it's CBD from marijuana, yes. If it's from hemp, I think you can still buy it off the internet.

  Papi - We use a CBD based gel that actually heats up like Ben Gay on joints and muscles. It makes a huge difference. For sleep weed is also great. You can smoke it or vape it. Medical marijuana is really no different, other than its grown under rules and regulations. The strains are the same. We bought my favorite, Ghost Train Haze in Nevada, Washington and from the guy I have bought from for 17 years to compare smell, potency, lasting effect etc. It was close but the street guy we buy from grows a slightly more potent product. You will need a card for cbd oil, which although has no psychoactive effects, is still marijuana and subject to the same inane laws. If you eevr want to know more just pm. The last day that I did not have my own weed to get high was in 1989. Ghost Train Haze; Guerilla Glue #4; Chem Dog; Sour Diesel.
