People who are opposed to weed think it’s only consumed by people who smoke to get high. The medicinal benefits from consuming edibles have been life changing for my sleep and anxiety.

That is not true. I oppose getting high because it lowers a person will but I am totally ok to use any drug even psychedelics if they can improve someone life. It's the misuse of drugs that is not ok because it underlines a desire to escape from the world. If people keep living in a world they would escape from but instead of actively doing something to fix it, just turn off the light... Well it's not going very well.
THC binds to anandamide sites. It is in cocoa and black truffles too. Some people especially autists have lower levels of anandamide. So the idea that one compound in a plant full of different medicinal compounds is somehow not medicinal because it can give you bliss like state is absurd.

Some people are always going to use tools wrong, I have met people who cant even use a hammer correctly, yet we don't look down on hammer use and suggest people should never use them, we blame the user instead.
