I have to keep reminding myself that China’s drug policy has its origin in historical trauma and the opinions of its people reflects that. They really think weed is like heroin or something it’s tragic.

Gonna go smoke some weed about it

    Yeah, I think this really just feeds into my point. People aren’t even always wrong to withhold drug use from doctors/health care workers because so many of them are judgmental freaks- that is another layer of the problem in itself. That is why the attitude towards drugs are so irrational here

    On top of that, cannabis hyperemsis is something that is poorly understood and poorly researched. It was sort of fringe even less than years ago, with only one or two good papers coming from outside the US… And no research at all in the US is generally conducted because of federal issues with legality- historically, the vast majority of research in the UA is usually stuff that is incredibly biased
