> After reading all these stories about anti-depressant RX medications,I didn't see one word about a natural herb call "Marihuana"...
James here....You have got to be kidding ! Did you really read some of the stories here. Most of these people are not dealing with minor mental illness but the big major mental illness and here pot may be a comfort but to advocate as a treatment is reckless. I guess you have never been to the dark side of mental illness.....the kind where you try to kill yourself and sometimes are sucessfull. Or take a knife and cut up your body because you hurt so much or because "they" told you to. Pot has its place in wasting or as an adjunct to chemo in cancer treatment. I never pass up the odd joint at a party but to advocate not taking studied meds for major mental illess is stupid.
i do herbs and I hate uninformed persons and thier stupid opinions ! Really...stop giving herbs a bad name, please...they do have their place. next time you happen on a bi-polar in a manic phase....with delusions et. al. please don't offer them a joint !james
