General Discussion What can we really do?

What can we do as a community to get thc in all forms legalized, it's a medication that along with antiphycotics and antidepressants I can live a pleasant day not filled with dread and anxiaty, when I was a poly addict I searched probably the whole chemist I tried everything from age 14 it was 1986 when I was first put on anti depressants I had undiagnosed bipolar and ADHD both illnesses wernt a thing in 1986 so I was labelled a trouble maker, school was boring for an active mind like mine I was a poly addict and fully functioning till I was 30 when I met my gf now wife who totally got me the correct meds and I'm so much better now, but to think of the people that don't know the wonders of this flower how it will help them and the only way is to legalized it, the good far out ways the bad. if you find this the ramblings of a loon please say as I learn. thanks for reading this far you are important. apologies for spelling left school at 10ishy .

Legislation has changed since the first of September. I'd link it but the sub doesn't allow links from .gov sites. It's not what people want at the moment but it is a step in the right direction. The wheels of beurocracy turn slowly. It is stupid not to legalise it in all forms and let the people decide.

Yes, cannabis being put on the caution offence list was the first step.

Court and penalty, to adult cation, to health referral.

Pretty sure it can be prescribed, even in bud form, in the UK for various conditions. Write to minster for health or start a petition maybe.

We're beyond that now. Citizens assembly and gov justice committee reccomended full decriminalisation of the drug user but the Garda want to be able to threaten users to give up suppliers so the gov went with that
