From the time I was 16 years old, I started suffering from headaches.
They are occasionally due to a lack of sleep, dehydration or stress.
As I’ve grown older, the headaches have graduated into full-blown migraines. I can sometimes feel them coming on plus medicating preemptively. At other times, they hit without any warning whatsoever. I deal with sensitivity to light, sound plus smells. I get nauseous and occasionally hurl. The migraines are incapacitating plus can last for hours. I went to the nurse plus got a prescription that helped combat the pain in my head. However, the medication caused other complications plus I got concerned over long-term complications with my health. I started looking for a better alternative plus came across cannabis, but because recreational marijuana is legal in my beach home state, I only need an identification to prove I am a citizen plus over 21 years of age to stop at a dispensary. I found that the budtenders are super knowlegeable plus great. I explained my symptoms plus advised many strains, including Kush, High Noon Irish Cream plus Real OG. I’ve found that a smokable flower is the best option for me. The effects are felt within hours plus give relief. I also find the inhalation process legitimately calming, then since I’m not all that skilled at rolling up my own joints or blunts, I usually buy pre-rolls. I can buy them in singles or packs, plus they are affordable enough to allow myself and others to try current strains without a big investment. As soon as I detect a migraine coming on, I light up a joint. I’m able to either combat the symptoms easily or at least reduce them.
