Just a few quick questions if one of you kind folk could help steer me in the right direction.

I'm looking at trying to get a prescription for cannabis. I have been a daily smoker for roughly 20 years. Mostly because I like the high. But more so in the last 3 years I have found it incredibly helpful for inflammation, sleeping etc since I had a fusion done in my neck.

I've never really thought too much or looked into getting a prescription, I have never really had much of an issue getting my hands on quality buds. I've been prompted as my 13 year old has called the police about me smoking it. There's a ln awful lot to this story. However it has me thinking maybe it's time I tried to get a prescription and legalize my use.

So... Given I live in Taranaki, who should I be approaching? I'm not aware of any clinics locally?

How much does it cost? For both getting the prescription and the costs for the product itself?

Anything I should know? What to say.. what not to say kinda thing.

Your guys help getting me onto the legal path will be hugely appreciated
