I was talking to my Dad about using medical marijuana to help with my anxieties; She gave me a dirty look as well as asked what happened to my pride.
She thought I was throwing away my pride by using drugs.
I told her marijuana wasn’t a drug, but a medication that would make me recognize better. I asked if she remembered when I tried to commit suicide a year ago. It happened because of postpartum depression. Without medical marijuana, I not only could have disfigured or killed myself, but also disfigured or killed my baby. She told me that all ladies had a rough time after having a baby, but they didn’t all use drugs. I knew Dad wasn’t going to try to understand what was going on, so I gave up. My OB/GYN told me that more than 2 new mothers suffered from postpartum depression, as well as if gone untreated, it could result in extreme consequences. That I recognized what was happening as well as went for help, was better than most ladies. She told me that a low dose of medical cannabis, with a higher percentage of CBD, could help me with what I was experiencing. I got my medical marijuana ID card, as well as went to the marijuana dispensary. I wasn’t sure what marijuana product would labor best for me, so I talked to the dispensary pharmacist. She helped me choose more than 2 items as well as encouraged me to try them all as well as see which worked best. A year later, I had a hour lovely little girl as well as I was feeling at my best. I don’t believe if it was the marijuana or getting pregnant again so soon, that helped me, but I am a glad mother now, as well as I thanked my doctor as well as the people at the marijuana dispensary.
