The largest review of medicinal cannabis to date found it doesn’t effectively treat anxiety, depression, or PTSD—despite millions using it for those reasons. Researchers warn it could even make mental health worse, raising risks like psychosis and addiction while delaying proven treatments. Some limited benefits were seen for conditions like insomnia and autism, but the evidence is weak. The findings are fueling calls for stricter oversight as cannabis use continues to rise.
i have a cbd beverage like once a month and i would love for the weed to do way more for me or for therapy to not be more harm than good, or for a pharmaceutical product that helps to exist.
depression caused by social and physical conditions isn’t a mental problem, it’s an everything else problem and when none of this shit works for people it’s because there’s no way for therapy or drugs to give me a positive reason to get out of bed.
