So far, this all has been simple enough, but many find it difficult to figure out on there own whether they will qualify.
If you meet these criteria, you may qualify for a medical marijuana card in Florida:
- Be diagnosed by a certified medical marijuana doctor with a qualifying condition, and
- Be a permanent or temporary resident of Florida.

It goes on further to include the following under the umbrella of qualifying conditions for medical marijuana in Florida:
- Any other “diagnosable, debilitating conditions of the same like, kind, or class” (such as anxiety, depression, or migraines)
- Terminal conditions that have been diagnosed by a doctor other than your medical marijuana doctor
