This is pretty my situation haha. I definitely do abuse it to escape momentarily from my everyday reality, but hey, I'm probably not the first to and I'm pretty sure I won't be the last to .i don't find weed helps with my depression. i'm miserable with or without it. what it does do is provide a bit of a distraction, which can be a big deal sometimes and mean nothing other times. sometimes it makes me focus too hard on how i feel. i wouldn't recommend it as a first course of action for someone with serious depression but i'd be lying if i said it doesn't make me feel less like crap sometimes in the short term. i certainly wouldn't call it a solution but it's a good distraction more than half the time for me. i'm a miserable fuck so my answer might not apply to everyone.
Former friend? Did he/she die?I can only provide my perspective and that of a former friend.
He smoked a little every day, and it sustained him.
I notice no diff at all with my depression whether I'm smoking or not. cn
I've tried a few times myself, been thinking of getting tattoos to cover the scars on my wrist. I 100% agree that this society we've found ourselves in (because let's face it, it evolved long before we were born) has some seriously fucked up morals and values. But I've started to find myself less depressed that I don't fit in and more proud that I'm not like those people, and now I feel mostly pity for those poor souls who'll never find a better way. Rock the fuck on with your high self.Former friend? Did he/she die?
Anywho, as someone who suffers severe depression, I get off on good buds. Not being proud, but being real, I have attempted suicide 3 times, and have a good amount of depression. I smoke to get by, but I really, honestly, hate this world we live in. Not that I can't take it, but we have fucked up morals.
herb helps with my depressionWhats your opinion on weed's relationship to depression?
Personally I believe that it does have benefits, but I want to see what other people think.
