How long have you took this for exactally?
My mother works with people with poor mental health just because they took this, i don't think this type of drug in the long term will make you feel better.

It is ILLEGAL!!!
|
|
In the past I didn't worry so much about the illegal aspect and used this to self medicate myself almost daily for 20 years. I gave it up in 1997 and my roller coaster has been much more severe ever since. If it EVER becomes legal it will immediately become a part of my daily regime once again.

reduced productivity

Sparingly as suggested it can be useful but for me I tend to like it too much and over use and then it becomes a trigger for mood swings rather than a stablizer. It does help with sleep so if one can limit its use I can see how it might have some benefits.
I don't mind that it is illegal. It ensures I can know who grew it and how. I prefer the organic varieties and if it gets regulated there will be no way of ensuring the qualities I'm looking for remain consistant. Less government is always better as far as I'm concerned. Misdemenor is all I want to see and that's pretty much how it is in Canada.

Pros:

calms nerves, increases appetite and sleep aid
|
|
Cons:

$$$ and somewhat addictive.
|

I have extreme PTSD. I have tried about 18 different types of psychiatric drugs and not one helped. Finally 3 out of my 4 doctors said go ahead and took me off of the prescriptions. My over all condition has improve by 3points (out of 10) in the four months of use.
It is illegal so I won't recommend it but, they better hurry up and legalize it.

short term effects and hallucinations
|

Personally did not work for me...at all.
I used it during a manic episode following a suggestion from a non-orthidox therapist that it would help me "mellow out"- I took two puffs of non-laced marijauna and began to hallucinate visually and auraly. During my manic episodes I do suffer from severe delusions- these don't effect every bipolar case.

Pros:
|
definity helps me sleep and helps me "chill" out
|
|
Cons:
|
makes me eat alot, laziness, and not always able to react to surroundings
|
|
I haven't smoked in years, but I do still want it occasionally ecspecially when things are really bad. It definitely can be addictive and I have seen it take control of people's lives. I mostly quit because I have kids and I don't want them around it. I can almost positively say it effects the memory. It is also a short term fix and the more you smoke the more it takes to get the desired effect. Can't say I don't miss it though. If it was legal, I would probably take it up again. Just not do it all the time.

I really think marijuana helps me but because it is illegal, it makes it very hard to access safely or confidently, at least.

Pros:
|
Relaxes some people. Helps with chronic pain. Marijuana definetely has some medicinal value.
|
|
Cons:
|
Makes me paranoid, manic, psychotic
|
|
I'm sure there are some severely mental ill people who have had no ill effects from marijuana. I cannot recommend the drug to people who are prone to hallucinations and delusions, as I am. The drug mimics the psychotic phase of a severe manic episode. For me it has acted as a trigger, so I haven't smoked it in about 20 years.
Back in the early 1970s, I didn't have this problem with it; but the marijuana nowadays is usually much stronger. Also, I did not become severely mentally ill until 1977.

If you have decided that you will quit smoking marijuana then that’s ultimate. You have to be psychologically strong to put a stop on yourself.Chantix

slows racing thoughts

Cons:

i love it
|

I'm bipolar and I smoked pot to stabilize my racing thoughts and bring me down from the mania.. I'd like to think I can still do that because I love the feeling of getting high. Unfortunately I'm an alcoholic and I smoke alcoholicly so i don't recommend this product to people trying to stay sober.

Pros:

It helps me with manic phases
|
|
Cons:
|
It is a depressant & can cause paranoia
|
|
It is very helpfull too me as well, but is illegal unless you are a card carrier, and even still is not excepted by employers in the USA who may UA you. So it's not good if your trying to find a job. Also it's a deppressant and can lead to long-term side effects such as paranoia and depression. I would reccomend it to only those who have been percribed it for madicinal purposes only.
