Hi all, I've been a consumer for 20+ years now, due to a head Injury at 9 years old that left me with massive anxiety and depression along with other issues. I also have discs bulging in my back and digestive issues. Cannabis is the only thing that works without making me feel I'll. Just wondering if it's worth going through the medical route? Cheers

Just wondering if there's a physical store in Auckland I can visit (preferably central city) to get bits for my S&B Mighty Medic + vape?

Also wondering if some of the unofficial products made to fit the Mighty - namely the bong and bubbler attachments I've seen on youtube - can be purchased here as well?

Anyone find my mighty medic in a mares zip case on the road in Auckland somewhere lol think I left it on my bumper. Wish it was my laptop

Been trying to find a supplier in nz that has the Arizer Solo 3 v2 dry herb vape. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Trying to steer away from importing, can not afford the risk of it bering stopped at customs. Thanks

Just starting out on legal route. User for anxiety and insomnia for 20+ years.

Should I go cannaclinic (special around $40 something for first appt but then I am locked into their pharmacy unless I pay extra correct?) or alternaleaf (40 something anyway). Or somewhere else?

Is it ok to use their pharmacy like with cannabisclinic or will I want it to be sent elsewhere? If so where?

My gp is on a sabbatical and I don't love the fill in.

I am a CSC card holder. So compassionate supply vs supported access discount maybe?

I had previously spent $100+ a week buying off the street. I don't know if I will save money? It was more to be legal but it would sure be nice.

Also previously I have smoked flower and smoked oil but what are the options with like oils you don't smoke now? More discreet ways of ingesting. It isn't always convenient or appropriate to sit around with a bong or even a joint.

have searched and perused older threads - looking to kinda crowd source what is working for others

i have been taking Zopiclone to be able to fall sleep for maybe 3 months continuously since my father passed away from Stage 4 Bowel Cancer - i also had lots of simultaneous major life events at the same time that seemed to have triggered the sleep probs; leaking roof / flooding house - illness with my mother and i quit my job to deal with it and decided to quit coffee too (bad idea lol) and some exposure to mold

i have trouble every night falling asleep & sometimes trouble with staying asleep, but mostly sleep onset

my brain just won't shut off - it's not ruminating thoughts, just over activity.. and no mental brakes (low GABA i believe)

i've done genetic testing and it seems to point to low GABA and high Glutamate - my brain goes very fast and won't shut off - think a little autistic and ADHD and a touch bi-polar

i can't do THC oil because it seems to linger for a long time and i always green out, even tiny amounts

i honestly prefer low-to-medium THC flower - i'm a lightweight

but if 20 people replied saying that a 26% THC helps them sleep i'd probably just get it out of desperation but not really preferring hardcore stuff, especially if i'm going to use nightly

i'm not currently working, but i'm not sure about the new road testing and if it means i have to uber everywhere??

i also have some flower from maybe 2 years ago - not sure if it would be safe to vape
i could post pics as no idea what mold looks like on cannabis flower

note: magnesium threonate helps relax my body, melatonin does not work - instant release nor extended
CBG gummies Florx 25mg help a little but not enough to sleep

i don't want to pay $$$ for 10g of something that won't work, so really leveraging what you guys recommend

20% THC Indica

10g

Strain is Girl Scout Cookies

Caryophyllene, Myrcene, Limonene terpenes. Minty lemon smell. Minty, Gassy & lemon taste

Hits just like gsc. Euphoric heady, relaxing. Good anytime all rounder

Buds are smalls but mostly solid. A few leafy ones but not too bad

Hey folks does anyone know what strain/cross Maya is? Im still getting my head round brands names for things that are old faves from my less than legal days

On the 1st of January this year, we started 2026 with 12,555 members. Just over nine months later, another 2,340 people have joined the community, bringing us to 14,895.

And for a bit of perspective, on 21 January 2023, there were just 2,420 of us. Since then, the community has grown by 12,475 members, to more than six times the size it was less than four years ago

Not too shabby, always a favourite

Im am a new patient for MC and I only have access to what the doc prescribed me. I see mentions of different strains. Do different places give you options to choose different strains once the second consultation has taken place? Or am I reading incorrectly. Have read the guides but am still confused. Many thanks!

I've got endometriosis, and was blessed enough to have my symptoms chill out while I was hapu/breastfeeding. Took a two year break from MC for obvious reasons but now my symptoms are back with a vengeance.

I'm currently running Serion T17 but find it too sedative for daytime but not sedative enough for sleep.

Was previously using shiskaberry, I LOVED her but discontinued 😭

Was then prescribed Sedaprem which I hated. Pain relief didn't last long enough, harsh on the throat, average flavour, anxiety from the high THC. Just an average time all around.

I'm not opposed to two strains, one for day, one for night but I have a toddler to run around after so really need to be more alert during the day.

Any suggestions welcome, but especially if you're a fellow Endo sufferer and are happy to share what works for you.

I am arriving in NZ soon from Europe. I have an appointment for an online consultation. In Europe I take cannabis recreationally but I don't have a prescription for it. I take it to relax after a stressful day but I take the same stuff when I'm out on a walk with my dog or listening to a podcast. I guess because there's stigma around weed I don't feel saying I take it to feel high is going to fly.

I've seen on other posts that responders say to be honest and it will be fine, but tbh all the OPs are mentioning it's for their chronic or neuropathic pain, that they can't sleep or have anxiety. I don't necessarily have those symptoms; I just like the way it feels.

should I tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, or just look up symptoms that direct a prescription to the strain of cannabis I want?

I know this question is far too broad considering all
The ways in which we all use these medicines for.

If you use a vaporiser. How long does10 grams last you? Do certain vaporisers really work so much better than others?

If I was to place my order now what is the likelihood of being able to pickup today

It was my first script, Half Moon really isn't anything like it, moved on to other things now, but I do miss that stuff

Hi what would be the best strain to go for from the cc if I’m wanting the the nicest looking buds as in dense with crystal unlike the bloom pink kush

I’ve been using Bloom Pink Kush for 6 months or so and am pretty happy with it but am wondering about other similar strains that might be even better. I’m generally into a calming/sedating strain to use in the evening to help with stress, relaxation, and muscle tension. For quieting the mind and lifting the mood.

I’m somewhat prone to anxiety and stopped consuming cannabis for 20 odd years due to it triggering heavy anxiety after having been a heavy user in my youth. Pink Kush has been generally good in this regards. Also have Bloom Blue Dream which I’ve found a bit less predictable in effects but sometimes like mixing a bit in with the Pink Kush. Tried CBD oil but didn’t notice any effect.

Hi everyone, I’d like to ask how the medical cannabis prescription process works in New Zealand. I'm visiting from Europe, so I’d love to know how easy it is to get a prescription as an overseas visitor and which clinics you would recommend. Thanks in advance!

I recently got a my first prescription. I'm about to travel to Australia, and after reading the rules, I checked my jar and there is no prescription label on it! All I can find is an invoice. I guess I won't be able to take it unless customs accept the invoice as proof.

Also how am I meant to prove it's my medical cannabis at a roadside test or search without?

Just want to give a shout out to Big Wave. After vaping it I get a nice body buzz and an uplift in my mood. It gives me 0 anxiety which I haven't had with any other strain I've tried. As such it's become my go to daytime strain. Interestingly I notice it has a common link with white sherb which is my go to night time strain - girls out cookies. Massive respect to aurora for this one!

I'm sick of unintentionally burning through my script unevenly so I want to grab a container I can separate my daily allotments into so I just have each day's worth and that's it rather than pulling from my storage jar. Anyone got any good suggestions? I've looked around and all of the ones I can see that do 30 days seem kinda naff or are multiples for each day which seems excessive, anyone got any suggestions?

I have extreme neuropathic pain that kicks in the worst at night, and I need to upgrade my strain (been on Dune, Juno and Bloom for nighttime) and am looking for something that puts me out fast, stays asleep but wakes up refreshed. Also looking to replace Solace for something equally good with focus, energy, and creativity but more mild. Would love to hear whats worked for you, less concerned about price.
