I have not looked into cannabis for *autism*, so I'm not just going to spout an opinion without something to back it up!. I just want to comment on the fact that most of the answers on this question talk about people developing mental illnesses such as paranoia or schizophrenia as a result of smoking cannabis!. I just want to know where they found this "research," it sounds like something straight from Harry Anslinger's propagation binder!. However I have read studies into cannabis helping with things such as cancer, easing the pain and nausea associated with not just the cancer but with chemotherapy!. There have also been studies in which THC has not just stopped the growth, but reduced the size of tumors in the lung by almost 50%!. It also helps with multiple sclerosis, a terrible neurodegenitive disorder in which the nervous system starts to deteriorate causing more pain that you can imagine!. It has more uses than ANY man made pill you can buy at the store!. AND it is safer, non-toxic, you cannot overdose, it is cheaper, and if it was legal, you could grow it in your backyard!. Thus reducing the production of pharmaceuticals, causing many rich peole to be not so rich!. The idea of it causing mental illnesses is ridiculous, maybe if you never smoked and than smoked alot of high grade in a large dose, and even then you would only be paranoid of getting caught!. The biggest fear you encounter are the very people put around you "to protect and serve"!. Wise up people! Stop believing the propaganda! Look into it yourself, and not just on the anti-drug sites and media that are lying to you! Www@Answer-Health@Com
Marijuana does have a few legitimate uses in medicine!., though not as many as advocates claim!. I have no problem with it for legitimate medical use, and recreationally it is safer than alcohol!. I have never heard of it being studied or used to treat Autism!. I think ethically there would be some concerns giving children marijuana!.

I'm sure marijuana can treat and cure anything, apparently it cures cancer!. "sarcastically"
I think marijuana to treat anything except maybe pain, is retarded!. I'm not against the stuff or anything, I use to smoke before, but too party with my friends not to heal all my ailments!.
I'm not the smartest guy in the world but I'm not stupid, if I catch a cold I'm going to the doctor, I'm not going to smoke a Blunt!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i think people lose sight of the purpose of its use as soon as someone mentions the word "marijuana"!. people erroneously see marijuana as a skull and crossbones, a dangerous addictive drug that makes your dog tell you how disappointed he is in you, and makes you melt into the couch for weeks on end!.
i think if marijuana could be shown to treat autism (which is highly probable, as cannabinoids actually protect the connections between the neurons in the brain, and autism is partly caused by lack of connections), then by all means go for it!. people fail to notice that marijuana has very little side effects, instead choosing to listen to this propaganda that is shoveled down the throats of millions of americans each day!. the worst weed can do is a little smoke damage in the lungs (which is minimized by a bong, and almost entirely erradicated by a vaporizer)!. compare this to perscription drugs that rattle off a laundry list of side effects, everything from nausea to hair loss to blood clots!. and you know they're always gonna have at least 3 or 4!. but because they're fda approved, people assume that they must be ok!.
overall, the use of anything to treat autism would be fine as long as it showed to be effective, and something with as few side effects as marijuana- thats just ideal!.

I have nothing at all against weed for any use--recreational or medical!. But, as a mother of a 5 year old son with autism, I find it hard to imagine my son "stemming" AND high!. I feel this would be more of a hinder than a help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
From what I gather, it doesn't treat autism, but the frustrations often accompaning autism!.
I am skeptical, suspecting this might be something parents might easily over use!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

if it works really well then i guess, but not for the people it only slightly improves!. I can't even begin to imagine what a stoned autistic kid would be like!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I don't agree with it at all!. The long term side effects (paranoia and other mental health problmes) just are not worth the risk!.
I would need to see a hell of a lot more research done!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
