Criminalizing marijuana to keep it out of the hands of teens and addicted adults is, in my opinion, a fallacious argument by the government. We'd probably all be shocked to know exactly how easy it is for teens to access pot, and how many teens in the U.S. use it. Underage drinking is illegal, but plenty of teens drink alcohol. Remember the Speechless episode, where the kids were drinking at a party? His parents were a little proud that their disabled teen was "normal."
The current administration wants to privatize prisons, so keeping recreational MJ illegal increases the prison population.
We have an opioid epidemic in the U.S., which needs to be addressed, as well as a problem with meth labs. MJ is not a problem, compared to these two issues.

Since you are nervous about taking Marinol, perhaps you should just take one and allow 24 hours to see what your reaction is. You may not need to take 3/day. I always think it's wise to start with the lowest dose and work up to the full dose with certain medications, which can be taken that way.
It's probably a good idea to take it at the same time everyday, and I would guess it should be taken on a full stomach. It might make you drowsy, so plan on a quiet, uneventful day. No driving. You might get hungry, so have some nutritious snacks on hand.
I don't think that Marinol is nearly as scary as many of the pharmaceuticals given to treat spasticity and neuropathy, as well as MS. I would rather give THC/CBD to my son than the three poisonous drugs he takes to control his seizures, which have caused his physical deterioration over the years. And, all three interact with just about every pharmaceutical in existence, including antibiotics. It's too late now to try this as an option for Jon.
One of his seizure meds is Valproic Acid. Its chemical make up is derived from Valerian Root. Decades ago, I found research describing the basis of most pharmaceuticals was taken from naturally growing plants on Earth.
If you can, try to relax and keep an open mind about this option. It will probably help you in tolerating it better. I pray that it works for you.

I agree with Howie that your friends should have informed you that they were serving pot brownies. I'm sorry that you had that experience. Edible MJ is typically described as more potent than other forms of delivery. And you definitely ate too many!
