Marajuanna may not be all that bad an idea in my opinion.
It does have certain mood stabalizing qualities, and it can help pain.
I have smoked it before, and I can say that it has helped with a host of psychiatric problems ranging from insomnia, loss of appetite, anhedonia, and pain.
It can actually be less harsh and more tollerable than other things pushed on me. I am only 22, and I have been prescribed more psychiatric drugs than people twice my age.
I don't consider myself a drugie by any means, but marajuanna really needs to be studied more in psychiatry, because there is something there.
I recall last summer, I wasn't sleeping, eating, and vomiting left and right. The antidepressants were generally making things much worse. Effexor made me an anorexic insomniac. A very small quantity of pot helped a lot of symptoms at once.Marajuanna is different from other illegal substances, in that it can actually promote neurogenesis like other antidepressant agents.
