Technically, no one "needs" a joint. You "want" a joint. Why that is, only you can answer. It is horrible living as a slave to substances. I can remembering wanting the high so bad, I thought I needed it to get through life. I found out that all I really need, I already possess.

What I needed was to face the fact that running from reality never solved any of my problems.
I tried drink I tried pot and other things - nothing ever filled that void in me.
Funnily enough, living sober helped me to heal that void. I rediscovered a me that I thought I'd forgotten.
I learned I was more capable that I'd ever thought or been told I was, and I learned that reality, for all its ups and downs, was actually pretty cool
how long have you been clean and sober?

I suffer a lot of pain, in physical, mental and spiritual factors. I near the edge a lot of the time with depression , anxiety, and invasive thoughts that are so off the wall and extreme.
I was in the services and I think I have issues, It was in CA I obtained a RX for bi-polar manic depression. I have had psychotic breaks in the past, wired naturally I am unable to sleep, never have dreams, am tired from wake up to lay down and fitful sleep with cold sweats and pain, I quit because I desire to obtain VA Vocational Rehabilitation and Education which they deny me while I have any drugs in blood tests ie narcotics which they class marijuana as such. I am against a wall and hard place and hope I do not amp up or break off...

Problem is, to even hope to use medical marijuana appropriately you need to have it coordinated via your primary care physician and with the rest of your medical team. Since the VA isn't on board with that, you're off the reservation.
I would never be able to survive an arrangement like that - I'd be chimney-ing it again in no time.
