Nah, I mean even for me, it had some positive impacts, again, allowing me to eat for instance. So i'm not blind to its capacity to be a positive force for many conditions.
The problem is that it's really not a miracle cure without side effects for everyone which a lot of people are not willing to entertain. There are people who simply refuse to accept that cannabis is not always the best, or even a workable choice.
In my case for instance, despite the positive of an increased appetite, it increased my pain, it gave me heart palpitations, it gave me sinus tachyardia, etc. Despite this, cannabis users will argue with me and tell me I "must have been doing it wrong" or various other statements along those lines, rather than accepting that like any drug, the reaction and utility of it is down to the individual.
