Anxiety Depression

In your experience, has cannabis treated your anxiety and/or depression?

I am thinking of getting medication for what I currently consider as moderate depression and anxiety. I believe that the more natural, the better when it comes to depression and anxiety medication. I always read about anxiety and depression medication as having some pretty serious side effects. That is why I’ve been thinking about getting a cannabis permit (I’m in CA) to help me relax a little.

Cannabis has been known to worsen anxiety in those suffering from mental disorders. The first study in my sources says “Weekly or more frequent cannabis use in teenagers predicted an approximately twofold increase in risk for later depression and anxiety”. The second study says “Frequent cannabis use is associated with increased AD in young adults independently of whether the person also uses other illicit drugs.”

Cannabis has also been found to be a trigger for psychoses. 3rd study: “cannabis is an independent risk factor for schizophrenia.”

4th study: “lifetime cannabis dependence is significantly associated with an increased risk of panic attacks.”

As such, I would not recommend that anyone with any history of mental disorders would use cannabis.
