I'm Mexican. I'm 23 years old and I'm an artist in process. I've been through a lot of traumatizing events in my life like bullying all my mid school wanting me to end with my life and other stuff that happened on this last years. As I abused of MDMA and other "uppers" to lose weight I ended up going to the psychiatrist. He diagnosed me with a heavy depressive-anxious disorder. He told me I have to take "Rivotril" in the morning and before going to bed. I've tried medicinal marijuana and it helps me perfectly with my life, but as it's still illegal here in my country, I have to get it by my own ways. People around me recommend me to don't use weed since it's bad for you and makes you unproductive. I lost my best friends in life because I used LSD and DMT (even though I found enlightenment with that), and now weed. My neighbors tell me every time I smoke they will call the police and they will tell the owner of my apartment to kick me out. I don't know what to do and I don't want to become a zombie. Should I keep on with medicinal marijuana? Should I quit and try the meds? Weed helps me composing and singing, and that's the only thing I care about in life.

ask your psychiatrist for non-medication treatments, try cognitive behavioral therapy.

There are some people who do genuinely need prescription medications in life, however rivotrill is a fast acting one time use per attack drug and is very addictive its a sedative, i would suggest if youve exhausted all non medical options and your daily life is completely ruined and marijuana doesnt help and you feel like the end of the world is crashing down that you ask for a drug that is a slow release these typically zoloft, effexor, etc . they take 4-6 weeks to actually go into your system they are daily medications.

i have no idea why any doctor would prescribe a sedative like that twice a day thats absolutely ludacris especially given your former drug issues., you may want to consider switching to a new doctor.

If cannabis really is helping you, then I question if you should stop. But you say you don't want to become a zombie. Is it making you one? Then stop or do a lot less. I'm not saying stop especially if you think it helps, but it also concerns me you say it helps you in composing and singing and that is the only thing you care about. I don't know how to exactly to say this, but if you don't care about anything else besides making music then you probably have a lot more work to do to get better. If you can get it, talk to more therapist. Follow your instinct whether to use weed. Hallucinogenics I don't think so.

I was thinking he's in Mexico which seems rough but I guess I should let him answer and hope he's okay. I just saw a show on how you can buy any pharmaceutical in Mexico without a prescription so maybe he's self prescribing which be another reason to worry about you, Senor Skreamau.
