Question
QUESTION: Is marijuana considered an 'herb' for real. As an hebalist do you consider (thc) a viable and/or valuable source of pain relief or consider 'grass' good for us in any way?
I do...

ANSWER: It is legal in some states for eye pain and others things  like chemo relief but I'm not sure good for a valuable sourse of pain relief.  Jayne

QUESTION: Have you ever even tried it? No offense... But for an "expert" I was expecting a little more..

I never asked about its legality and if you took the time to proofread your response, you'd see how it contradicts itself.

Answer
I have many times tried it and consider it no way a reliable pain relief. It is an escape herb.  And I'm not an expert in all herbs This is not an herb they present in classes Understand? Or any training.  I do know it will stifle you emotional growth.  May be good to take occasionally but not as a habit as all habits. So I believe the only thing it's good for is in the mometn of wanting to be creative and stress relief.  that's my opinion. Jayne
