- labrador 3y agoI think you're missing the point. If millions say CBD reduces their pain, then CBD reduces pain. I think the proper scientific attitude should be "we don't understand how CBD reduces pain. We can't find a physical basis for it, but there may be a psychological effect that changes the perception of pain to make it more acceptable"
- ulfw 3y agoYou've never heard of the Placebo Effect, have you?
- labrador 3y agoI thought about it but what I am saying is different from the Placebo Effect
- MultifokalHirn 3y agoI thought about it but it isn't. (Just poking fun at your "argument".)
- labrador 3y agoSo you think I thought about it after ulfw mentioned it and decided it I wasn't talking about the Placebo effect when I meant I thought about it before ulfw mentioned it and decided it wasn't but can't articulate now why what I said is not the Placebo effect but rather a mechanism which alters perceptions that we don't understand that is quite different from inert sugar pills that provide a purely psychological response? (I hope that clears things up lol)
