RESPONSIBLE CANNABIS USE

These guidelines help those who use cannabis identify ways of accessing the alternative medicine in a positive, safe and mature way.

• Adults should only use cannabis as part of a healthy, balanced, and responsible lifestyle.
• The decision to use cannabis should be made freely, and not as a result of social pressure.
• Cannabis users should be well informed about its effects on themselves and others. These effects include legal risks, health and wellness risks, and personal consequences.
• Never use marijuana as an excuse for antisocial or irresponsible behavior.
• Cannabis users should model and reward responsible use, particularly with new users.
• Develop sensible cannabis use limits for yourself based on personal, health, medical, situational, and cultural factors. It is important to be objective about your personal cannabis use and listen to the constructive advice of others.
• Avoid cannabis use that puts you or others at risk, such as when driving, at work, or in public places. Remember, personal use of cannabis is still NOT LEGAL under federal law, and penalties are stiff.
• Use of cannabis by children is inappropriate.
• Cannabis and alternative medicine use should contribute to, rather than detract from, a patient’s health, wellness, creativity, work relationships, and social obligations.
