Really now? They use marijuana for every gotdayum ailment. I mean, Montel Williams uses it for his MS (multiple sclerosis), Murphy Brown was smoking it on her episode to treat breast cancer. Now marijuana is used to treat chronic pain? Get outta here! Where was this “medicinal” marijuana when I fractured my elbow back in 1997 and I had to go to physical therapy? HMPH! More of why Anthony Anderson uses it under the hood.

“I went to the doctor for this chronic elbow problem, and he told me he had some chronic medicine that he could prescribe to me that would alleviate the pain. So I went to this holistic doctor and basically got a prescription for wacky tabacky. You go to the pot store, or what they call a Wellness Center. They have everything. They make a marijuana butter.”

The mischievous star even shared his medicine with some TV co-stars, explaining, “I was on a show called K-Ville and they heard about my baking goods. So I baked brownies for the whole crew. That’s probably why the show didn’t come back (was canceled).”

But Anderson admits he became a little too reliant on the legal buzz: “I had to renew my prescription and I thought I had to manufacture a new ailment to get it back I didn’t know I could go back and say I’ve got chronic elbow pain. I told them I was seeing spots and they renewed it for me.” (source)

Mmm hmm. Riiiiight.
