LONDON - on Monday.
Their findings have important implications for countries such as the United States, Australia, Britain and Canada, where medical cannabis is being made available for patients with certain illness, said Louisa Degenhardt, a drug and alcohol expert at Australia’s University of New South Wales in Sydney.
Medicinal cannabinoids include medicinal cannabis and pharmaceutical cannabinoids, as well as their synthetic derivatives, THC, or delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol - the main psychoactive ingredient of cannabis - and cannabidiol, or CBD.

The truth is that no 2 individuals are the same. In research, we usually generalize from a sample. WEED may help some stay cool but induce Psychosis in others. Self awareness is the key
Who cares? Legalize it anyway so we don’t throw away billions arresting and prosecuting people for it.
You would think if a person already has a mental problem and by giving them cannabis would make things even worst for the person using the cannabis. Especially since it's a hallucinatory drug and a lot of mental people already have this issue. Scary!!
Blast them with pills and it all new good !!!!
Oh, I don’t know, probably better than the big pharma shit that gives people suicidal thoughts and causes them to shoot shit up. 🤷♂️
Yeah... It's not medication. It provides a pleasant feeling while the influence lasts then you come back to reality. For some with strong anxiety and/or depression, though. Those can be VERY welcomed vacations from their stress
Scientific evidence is necessary, to be analyse before anyone utilise for medical reasons link to depression, anxizety or psychosis any medication or the define as: *medicinal cannabis* embrace by most people, without screen seriously, one more product commercially imposed.
Yeahhhh I call BS.. but I’m sure those same Doctors would love to prescribe a much more harmful more addictive drug. . . .
Not with buds like that. Geez, learn to trim.
Don't burn it Mix it with milk Dry fruits Drink it in small amount If exess Take a 🍋 lemon and drink it That's mahadev do Mahadev do no duan duan
Canabis causes free radicals. They make cells sick! Therefore, the brain is not capable of clear judgment! Alcohol also causes free radicals! A state that allows the use of cannabis and alcohol is doomed!
Science harder then. 🤓
Why hasn't the research been done?
Just give the doctors/government free gifts like they did with Thalidomide and everyone will get a cannabis script
BS
Cheap medicine from the ground. Obviously not recommended.
These are the types of illnesses that it works on the best. And it's cheap compared to the pills they want to sell you instead. Oh did I mention that unlike many drugs that treat mental illness, cannabis doesn't make you want to kill yourself as a side effect?
The young generation has generally abstained from narco, drugs, marijuana etc. These Cannabis companies will probably not care very well.
I'll stick to my Trazodone, and Quetiapine thanks very much. I'm not touching Cannabis unless a pharmaceutical company comes along, creates a none high inducing analogue, then puts it through the full battery of tests, and trials before having it approved by the WFO, and the NHS.
There is plenty of evidence. It’s just being suppressed by the multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical industry.
It’s simple: are you feeling down? Smoke some weed and you may feel happy for a bit. Weed will not solve your problems or cure what ales you.
More research is good/sane/warranted and . . . Pot is not a miracle drug that cures everything!
If anything the long green can exacerbate such conditions. Though vastly less dangerous than alcohol, like any mind-altering substance smoke can have its pitfalls.
Evidence is weak....oh, so you mean there is evidence? Well hold my bong
Worked for me...Wanna know what didn't work? Alcohol/tobaaco/caffiene/ and sugar...imagine that?
Is safer then opioid
Now do beer.
Let me guess who the study is from. Lol
You might still be ill but music is better and god that pasta, pizza and ice cream was good
What research?
Works for my depression
I don’t care what ya researchers say.. I’m believing the patients turning their lives around with medicinal cannabis for many medical issues including mental ones. Didn’t they just start researching cannabis extensively just recently after years of not researching?!?!
The evidence is also pretty weak for whether it CANT relieve mental illnesses. Because it's been illegal so long, we haven't had a chance to properly research it.
No kidding
Yeah and if you chew it, it can lower colesterol, helps you grow taller and makes you younger. Making soups has even more beneficial effects.
We have plenty of evidence that 480 000 people die yearly from tobacco in USA and nobody cares . Why struggle for evidence if it’s useless ?
A cotton candy - light weight article . Do better . Ya know - DO YOUR JOB !
But take these pills!
I don't know about anxiety and psychosis, but it helps greatly with depression, as well as headaches and general pain.
Weed causes all that. It's the ups and downs of life that can leave people feeling out of control, and staying stoned replaces those emotions with the feeling of being stoned. It is total escapism.
That's certainly true. We need to be absolutely certain that any prescribed medication actually works before advising its use on a mass scale, and as such caution should be exercised. There is a place for treatments like this, as they are researched, but on a smaller scale.
It helps with my depression but then you start depending on it for literally everything and that’s where its fucking me up 🤣😒
Or not at all.
And opioid was not addictive
We need to legalize weed nationally so you ghouls can just shut the hell up already
I love weed
Researchers who work for big pharmas 🤣
It treats mine great!!
What if marijuana is just a placebo...
