MENTAL HEALTH: Cannabis as a Treatment

Recent research has debunked the myth about cannabis contributing to schizophrenia. In fact, reports indicate that some mental health problems may be helped by cannabis. Many patients using cannabis to treat chronic pain, MS and other ailments that frequently produce reactive depression have noted that the marijuana doesn't just treat their primary symptoms, it lifts their spirits.

"I think cannabis has a lot of potential in the treatment of mental illness," says Lester Grinspoon, emeritus professor of psychiatry at the Harvard School of Medicine. He says that it can be an effective treatment for bipolar disorder and depression. Like any medicine, he cautions, it won't work for everyone. Grinspoon has, over the last three decades, been one of the few psychiatrists willing to speak publicly on mental marijuana.

When I hear anyone speak of being of African heritage, I wonder, "Who ISN'T??"

We all are.
