The largest review of medicinal cannabis to date found it doesn’t effectively treat anxiety, depression, or PTSD—despite millions using it for those reasons. Researchers warn it could even make mental health worse, raising risks like psychosis and addiction while delaying proven treatments. Some limited benefits were seen for conditions like insomnia and autism, but the evidence is weak. The findings are fueling calls for stricter oversight as cannabis use continues to rise.

Fascists have been robbing people at gunpoint in their own homes with approval from a serial killing billionaire monopolist state and that article talks about pseudoscience, non-verifiable, self-report based terms like feelings of anxiety, depression, and PTSD. Facts have shown that POVERTY causes anxiety, depression, and PTSD. POLICE STATE ARMED ROBBERIES CAUSE ANXIETY, DEPRESSION, AND PTSD. They’re more likely to happen to people on the antagonist side of the MERCK, PFIZER, GSK MONOPOLY DRUG CARTEL. That is a fact about cannabis possession, cultivation, usage, and sale. Another relevant fact about this study would be the shadow network of BIG PHARMA serial killers with residence addresses somewhere near readers of that article and bank accounts in 0-tax jurisdictions of the likes of Panama, Luxembourg, etc. that funded putting that pile of feces into a format that looks like a scientific article. In the meantime, those unethical bastards have been selling drugs of the likes of opioids, benzodiazepines, etc. from inside hospitals near the readers of that article, drugs that have killed tens of thousands if not millions of humans per year.
P.S. That article totally omits to even acknowledge the variety of types of cannabis with widely different molecular composition profiles.
P.P.S. That article also omits to acknowledge that fact that research on cannabis consumption therapy has been happening outside the fascist states of the american-european colonial (and racist) empire and their ‘universities’ (sites of propaganda) because of a little thing called a decades-long illegal criminalization of the non-violent behavior of personal choice of consumption of a plant flower with numerous therapy applications growable with a small budget in approximately any house.
Dude, pass the joint, you’re bogarting it
