shiet man , i have depression and i am only 16 , and i have trouble sleeping and eating and marijuana definately helps me through it alot .

Cannabis helps with depression and anger. In that way, suicides and murders could be prevented. Its easier to forgive people, meditate and connect with the great spirit light energy. It could also help with sleep disorders. It can help with designated drivers who still wanna party, because there isn't the same effect as alcohol.

this is true!!!

It should definitely be used as a treatment.I suffer from PTSD from near death experiences buy gang members and things like almost drowning.When I smoke cannabis it doesn't matter what my mood before smoking was, even if I was the most depressed, Cannabis would help me feel happy again and appreciate what the present has to offer.It doesn't make you forget your problems but it just gives you the feeling that "it will pass".

A friend of mine gets ecstasy for his PTSD.

After he takes it, his nightmares are gone for the next weeks---

The only prob. is that his psychiatrist charges him alot everytime he visits him.

I think canabis could help him as well and isn´t as expensive ---as he could grow it for his own..but he gave up smoking cannabis 20 years ago....

...[continuation from previous comment]the entire research experience. sure they have been studying on animals for long enough to juxtapose the effects on the animals to the effects it could possibly have on the humans.. however, these studies lack the part where they get positive/negative verbal or written feedback from th test subject.

y do scientists and chemists get to bypass this whole animal cruelty law? it's like if u wear a wite coat it gives you liberty to blow weed smoke on your cat.

[kntwksol]

i think scientists need to stop playing it safe with animals. they need to introduce the "steaks" element and put something on the line, like themselves..

i am pretty sure that anyone who reads this will agree with me that Marijuana isn't something that humans least of all scientist-who know full well the effects of the drug should be affraid of. these scientists are weak and the fact that they are studying on animals with completely different genetic structures to us is dramatically slowin down

Medical Marijuana can be used to treat many different disorders, and for good or worse no one has ever died or become deathly ill from such experiments. Keep up the excellent work Neuro.
