hi, how is everyone today?
just wanted to make myself known.

a little bit about me:
i am currently not a medical marijuana user, but am seeking resources to do so, hence my joining this community. i have dealt with an extensive amount of pain and issues for the last eight years, from being diagnosed with PTSD, depression, anxiety, to suffering from an inflamed gallbladder, constipation, very intense periods. I have been on and off medication for my mental health issues, but I can't go longer than six months on regular presribed meds before I physically can't handle it anymore. Herbs and alternative medicine have always seemed to suit my constitution more. I have been treating my physical symptoms with acupuncture and presribed herbs for the last seven months, in addition to seeing my regular doctor here in Maine, and was in therapy from August of '07 to October of '07. I have been in and out of therapy for the last eight years as well.
I have been in Maine(New England) for the last three months staying at my mother's house to pursue financial means to attend a treatment program in Massachussetts and to escape what became a very bad situation with our(my boyfriend and I) neighbor. I am unable to return to the apartment we have shared for the last year in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, but now, with financial means available for me to get some quality therapy, I also have the desire to return to Florida to have treatment there as well as be with my partner.
Chronic, intense stress and anxiety has been a part of my life since I was a child. I have used marijuana recreationally in the past, but now since I have consciously and actively been thinking about and pursuing a self healing process, a light went off in my head to incorporate it into my healing process. Since I don't live in California anymore, or Canada, I realize there is a risk to getting busted. But since prescription meds don't last long with me, and I feel like I need more than the herbal remedies I am currently taking just for relief sometimes, I am feeling the need to pursue this avenue.
Anyway, that's a little blurb about me. I'm looking forward to finding resources and getting to know people.
thanx,
Terrell
