Does marijuana help with epilepsy

Does marijuana help with epilepsy. There has been studies that it reduces seizures in the brain. And should I try it?

Answer #1

Ok…I’m also an epileptic, and I have used it in the past.

From personal experience - it made things worse.

I was having seizures almost twice daily and it took 3 years after I stopped using it to balance out again.

You may react differently, but is that a chance you want to take? I recommend you stick with your anti-seize medication and leave the dope for the dopes.

Answer #2

NO you should NOT try it.

Maybe it will help, I haven’t read the so called “studies,” but I’m sure it will hurt much more than it will help.

Answer #3

you have to somke it every day just like any outher anti convolsent I use it to help my seizures but you have to smoke a sertin strain liike a strong indick strain like skunk or kush that’s what I use and it helps

Answer #4

I have had epilespsy since the 6th grade and the doctors have never been able to help me. They have put me on so many ant-seizure medication and none have worked. The closes thing that worked was the Keppra, but even then I was still having them. But after I started smoking at first it didn’t work but my friend told me to keep with it, so I did.

To this day I live seizure free due to the Marijuana. I don’t know if this will work in your case, some people are different. But I’m a living story that it works. I also think its better for you too. Marijuana is a natural thing that comes from the earth, unlike drugs. But I don’t smoke anymore I put it in my food, it is healthier for you.

Answer #5

I smoked weed a few days ago and it caused me to have my first seizure.

Answer #6

I have tried many man made medications for years and they have never completely stopped my seizures. I have had brain surgery ten years ago to remove a cavernoma, but the seizures came back six years ago and I have been smoking marijuana ever since. I find that smoking marijuana slows down the frequency and severity of my seizures, it is great. It lifts my mood and calms me when I get frustrated. God created it for a reason, I know it helps me and I know that I can’t ever overdose. So enjoy and don’t worry about a thing.
