Top reasons cited for potential cannabis consumption: 4. Mental-health 3. Treatment of minor injuries 2. Sleep aid And the No. 1 reason... (it's not to get high...)
The vast majority of people who support marijuana legalization aren’t looking to just get high, a new poll finds.
Other reasons respondents deemed “very important" included freeing up law enforcement to focus on other types of crime , marijuana use being a matter of personal choice and freedom , providing a tax-revenue source for state and local governments , increased safety for marijuana users due to government regulation , and the belief that marijuana isn’t harmful to users .
Gallup’s main finding tracks with a recent survey by market-research firm Nielsen, which found that one in three U.S. adults aged 21 and up were interested in using legalized cannabis, and those who said they’d consume the drug if it were legalized were most likely to cite pain treatment and other wellness-related reasons.
A majority of folks who would use cannabis and have an ailment said they already used an over-the-counter or prescription medication to treat it. Such ailments include headaches and migraines, back and neck pain, arthritis pain, “feminine pain,” general aches and pains, trouble falling asleep and cancer pain.
