In reply to Marijuana with AD's can cause depression?, posted by charly on September 3, 2003, at 17:40:20

> Any MJ users or ex-users find that MJ can cause or exacerbate depression?i have been an occasional user since age 14 (23 now) (also been depressed since about 12). It used to be great. But more and more whenever i "partake" i can often get exTREMEly freaking depressed. The deep introspection it brings coupled with my pathetic life and the wasted years-- and the reality of who i am-- it's just too much for me to take. And then oftentimes this feeling & mindset can last for days and days afterward even-- not to the same extent exactly but still strongly. Plus the slight apathy, lethargy, and , well, depressive-type state afterwards doesn't help. So...
i think cannabis can be and would be a wonderful, wonderful drug for those who are happy and confident. But for those with depression or inferiortiy issues-- i would definitely be careful.
