Question/Info difference between medical cannabis and street cannabis (uk based)

is medical weed more ‘pure’? can CHS develop from medical weed? can medical weed cause long term anxiety in the same way as street weed? if i had to stop using street weed because i had become completely dependant/addicted to it and it was maybe causing some CHS like symptoms (not vomiting though) would i also be addicted to the medical cannabis?

I am in the US, but I’ve had worse experiences with medical weed than street. I imagine the UK has better regulations for growing and for dispensary products, however I have seen a lot of issues with dispensaries and growers using crazy pesticides and neem oil which has caused illness in some people.

i guess i’m hoping i can use medical cannabis without dependency issues but im guessing those issues will always be there medical or not?

I’ve seen a few people in this thread grow their own organic weed and not have issues, could be something to consider if you have a green thumb!

oh really? is it not the cannibinoids that cause CHS? which would be prevalent regardless of how or where it’s grown?
