The Miracle Oil?

Can CBD really help heal my chronic pain?

The Miracle Oil?
PREXEL

Marijuana, weed, kush, ganja, reefer, doobie, and the green goddess are just some names for the cannabis plant according to time.com. Of course there are more terms and more slang names for this come people are calling the miracle, "herb," or drug in the 21st century, for curing their chronic pain and help manage the various autoimmune diseases that plagues many people in this day and age. Some people find people have found a lot of success with using CBD oil with decreasing inflammation, to having chronic pain completely go away within weeks (where prescription drugs has not decreased their pain in years) Also perscription drugs have a ton of side effects.....and to my knowledge CBD oil does not have any (little to no) side effects, which honestly is amazing. So, some of you are thinking (well, maybe, probably) why are you, the straightlaced Leah, writing about CBD? Easy, because I have autoimmune diseases, chronic pain, inflammation, and have to take a ton of prescription medications. I am sick a lot and in a ton of pain. I wanted to try something else to help my never ending struggle for a, "normal," life. So, last night I decided to look up different reviews on CBD oil and ordered a starter bottle. I am hoping that this is and was the key to myself and many others living a normal life. Because, just like a lot of autoimmune disease sufferers I am at the end of my rope!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
