Quit MJ after 17 yrs a 1/2 oz a week user. HELP

[Iowanian]

Someone explain this to me.

People on chemo will take MJ to stop nausea and make them eat. Most of what you hear about side affects relate to the munchies and eating.......so how does someone who is fighting flubber justify smoking it? Seems pretty damn counter productive to me.

I've softened my stance a lot of medical MJ and legalizing in general, but posts like these make me scratch my head.....It's not addictive, but it makes a guy smoke his rent and food money....
