State Legislature OK's Pot for PTSD

NJ legislators gave the final “go ahead” to a bill that would allow those suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder or “PTSD” to obtain and utilize medical marijuana. PTSD is commonly experienced by military veterans, and a portion of the community believes it may be a step in the right direction towards ending veteran suicides, now at 22 a day. Although it still faces a “veto” opportunity by the Governor, a vocal opponent to marijuana legalization, he doesn’t appear extraordinarily motivated to do so this time around.
