Mother discusses how cannabis saved her autistic son's life.

I have Aspergers and one of my stimming behaviours I have had since the age of about 2 has been head banging. I hit my head with my hands or the nearest object I can find. I think we counted and they put me on at least a dozen different pills. It got to the point that I was on high doses of benzodiazepines, antipsychotics and barbiturates. During my second year of college my friend was smoking a spliff and asked if I wanted a hit, I took one hit and didn't stim for about 8 hours!

Marijuana when legal (secure, not contaminated) is the most complete and powerful healer that we can find in this planet! Such a miraculous herb cannot be illegal anyway! Let's stand together all over the world for the legalization! Legalize marijuana now! _\|/_

getting addicted to cannabis is like getting addicted to carrots. we eat carrots because we need the nutrition for our bodies and many of us like the taste. most of these doctors who mention addiction havent got the knowledge to realise that what they are saying is misinformation. you cannot get addicted to cannabis and there are no mental problems that develop when you stop taking it.

I have all the respect for you as a mother. Cannabis is one of the least toxic plants on our world. Politicians: the bubble is going to burst and you are now being exposed as the liars.
