Ooh, good idea! I don’t think I can get a prescription in NY. Is there another way I can buy it?

I did some research on Google to find information about CBD use in New York. Medical Marijuana is legal in New York, but you need to contact a qualified physician to obtain your MM card. The conditions that qualify are being loosened all the time and most recently included "chronic pain" lasting more than 3 months as qualifying! That should be good news for many on these threads. I have included a link for details about the use of CBD in New York:

You can obtain CBD Living Water online @cbdlivingwater.com, and it will be sent to you. I used that for my withdrawal from Tramadol. If you want something stronger, you will need an MM CARD which I think you may qualify for as it is ok'd for opioid withdrawal now. The link has a lot of good information on it about CBD and what New York is doing. I hope this information is helpful in you search for some relief from withdrawal symptoms.

CBD doesn't contain THC - so you can buy it in NY....In the City there's even a truck that sells CBD-laced goodies.
