I used marijuana when I was in my early twenties, but once I got married and had a baby, I quit using everything, including alcohol.
Ever since I have had my kids, I have been going through RLS.
Restless leg syndrome I had heard of and wasn’t sure if it was a real thing. I have varicose veins in my legs, which are a precursor to some RLS patients. I would lie in bed and my legs would jump and there was a lot of pain. I wasn’t sure if I could handle it long. OTC drugs weren’t helping anything, and I was using creams and other products my doctor suggested. I talked to my doctor again and asked him what he thought about CBD. Since they legalized recreational marijuana, I didn’t need special paperwork to purchase marijuana. The problem was that I didn’t want actual marijuana; I wanted CBD. CBD was supposed to be the part of marijuana that helped with pain and made the muscles relax. I went to the marijuana dispensary and told them what I wanted and why I wanted it. They gave me a marijuana product that was 90% CBD and almost no THC. The good part about using CBD is that there are no munchies. I’ll be using CBD for quite a while, and if I got hungry every time I used it, I would be in trouble. I can’t afford to gain too much now that my kids are growing up. I still need to stay in shape for my kids and for myself.
