I wrote this a few months ago as a comment on another blog post. I feel very strongly in helping others educate themselves and our story of advocacy for our son.
-Cannabis has been life changing for our son and our family. He’s only 11 1/2- but his severe autism behaviors and comorbidities (ADHD, OCD, PTSD, Bi-polar, and list goes on)… nothing was effective in helping our son. And he only was growing, getting bigger and stronger. We absolutely tried the “traditional” route in all therapies, medications….
and the meds only made things worse for him. His system could not tolerate any of it. Desperate after ER visits, police being called to the house, him continuing to put himself and our family in danger- and having no where else to turn-
we got “the note” from his psychiatrist and after 6 months of trying to dial in on dosing, what works for him- he still lives in our home, he is so much less aggressive, he plays , he sleeps, – there are so many positives it’s hard to believe not everyone can access Cannabis.
Based on my son’s story-
our families story-
no other child or family should have to suffer when Cannabis exists.
It’s wrong-
So glad we live where we do and could access Cannabis-
it has brought back hope to our family-
it keeps our family together-
it is helping our son when nothing else did!
Keep up the good fight- we have to advocate for our kids!
