    hello people,
     
    i have got shitty migraines with aura before it . 
    it looks like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVFIcF9lyk8
     
    i have pills to use when it starts but i feel bad after that and i have done like 4 different brain scans and tests and everything is all right.
     
    weed could help right? but how frequent can i do it? i am not talking about getting baked or stoned , just a little hit every other day , so i am comfortable to think and work . but how could my growing brain react?
    some people on the internet say that weed changes it to the bad direction .
     
    could someone please answer me from his/her experience or give some good studies that i could read?
    please dont give me the governments propoganda shit about weed. i am pretty steep all day and a little bit depressed, it take really personal all things , so weed would help me mentally too-i mean make me a little bit more happy. i dont know how would be studying math or chemistry after smoking a really little , but once i was really baked after 2 days in a row smoking i did some amazing montage in sony vegas for physics project and i got the highest grade possible. i was really into the project and i was really inspired about the work i was working and i didnt get bored from doing it . 
     
    i havent got any migraines for like 3 months and this was time when i started smoking like every other week with buddies. i am writing this because after boxing training it started - the migraines. but this time it was really light , not heavy migraines like it was before like 7 months- after the aura period i couldnt think and i wasnt able to talk :cry:  there isnt any link between boxing and migraines , i got them even before i started training.
     
     
    Thanks for reading , 
     
    have a good day !  :bongin:  :hello:

    Get yourself a little one hitter, OP. Just take small tokes as necessary. That should do the trick. Like you said, it can help you in a lot of different ways

    It won't affect your brain permanently. However, some people report that their short term memory isn't as good when they've been smoking regularly, but when they stop smoking their clarity returns. I've never had an issue with my shirt term memory.


    I think what you're looking for in Granny Storm Crow's list. Not sure where she is, but she has this list about thousands of cannabis related studies. Send her an email at stormcrow@greenpassion.org to get a free copy from her

    Try to avoid artificial sweeteners such as aspartame!
    I haven't  had any aura  migraine attacks for about 2 years now - just by avoiding artificial sweeteners!
     
     
    Before that - i would get them every other week or so.

    Longtime sufferer of cluster migraines. Cannabis is the only thing that has ever helped. However, all migraines are different. Mine are a daily occurrence, and so is my toking. It lessens the duration and severity. Yours may respond to a different regimen and strain. For some sativa does the trick, but for me it's indica. Granny a.k.a storm crow can help you narrow down where to start.
    As for the work you can do on cannabis? That is cheating. Cannabis is a performance enhancing drug and shouldn't be used in competitions like a battle of the bands, American Idol... Shit like that! Good luck OP. Like that other Bill (Clinton) said ”I feel your pain." Literally!
    Storm Crow is actually who I came here to find tonight.

    Use vapes and make edibles!
    Those would benefit you.

    Vegetable glycerin ticnute will help you alot.


    Also, i know i can't mention it, but there is another natural and common hallucinogenic that helps with migraines. They've been doing research on it and find it help people with migraines.

    I think any drug or alcohol use before they age of 21 can probably cause stunted growth of your brain. I have no facts or sources to comfirm that, it just is something they say in AA meetings and most rehab facilities. However its your decisiob. You wont go brain dead, but if you smoke a lot daily it will change you

    Im not sure if this will effect your brain permentally but if you want to you could take Alpha GPC to boost your choline levels. This should help any short term memory problems if you have any. If Marijuanas memory impairment is acetlycholine related. Not really why some people have short term memory problems, but I do know more choline better memory so it couldnt hurt.

    he said no govt propaganda.. haha jk. daily weed use can definitely change the way a young persons brain works, and even an adults as well.
     
    OP you should check out Granny Storm Crow like fearjar said, she has just about every medical use for weed documented and with links to studies and the such as well. a sativa makes a lot of sense, but indicas will help just as much and you can definitely smoke as much as you need. just dont become reliant on it unless absolutely nothing else works, and you live a lifestyle where you can balance weed into.
     
    btw i dont think any Grascity member is going to feed you government propaganda, haha
