Marijuana

For many marijuana is a drug used to have fun or to relax, others are killed for getting the best marijuana plant to finally save themselves from the pain. This drug should not be recreational, it should be for medical use and if the disease or situation is serious and this is the only way to cure suffering. Today for many people it is easier to get marijuana than alcohol, not comparing with alcohol as if it were a good drug. There are situations in which cannabis is the only and last option for many people who suffer from constant attacks, whether due to epilepsy or another disease. On class we watch a documentary were many parents who try to avoid using medicinal cannabis end up giving it a try and it comes out to be magically efficient at improving their child quality of life since their children were on the verge of death because of pharmaceutical medicines which highly affects them. This documentary shows how a child suffers more than 100 attacks a day without being able to keep his/her development progress like learning to walk without having an attack interrupting it. On the other hand, there are people who only use marijuana to feel 'cool'. No drug is good, it is true that there are many drugs a thousand times worse than marijuana but what many don't know is that this a gateway drug which leads consumers to consume more and more dangerous and harmful drugs like cocaine, acid, heroin, etc. So in my opinion, I believe that the use of cannabis should be fairly minimal and only for serious and necessary medical situations.
