I know of two people who came from psychiatric institutions and now run very normal lives with no medicines. Both of them found their new lives with marijuana. Both require high amounts and there is also high tolerance - they don't get high and their eyes are not glassy red - but their lifelong depression is gone.
In my lyme wars I got terrible nausea from antibiotics. But I am skinny and cannot afford to have nausea. So I started smoking a little so that I could get 'the muchies'. It worked. But something else happened. For the first time in many years I actually felt a few hours of normal, of being in the world, a part of the world, connected, and from that point on my antibiotics began to work a lot better.
With the benefit of hindsight, cannabis is very helpful for antimicrobials and anti inflammation. It has antibacterial activity on its own.
I have never seen anybody psychiatrically cured by psychiatric drugs. Never seen it. Maybe temporary remission, here and there, spotty, rare. But never a cure. I have seen marijuana actually offer total cures. It fits into my antimicrobial/antitoxin/antiinflammation view of psychiatry. It is consistent with all that.
If it were me I wouldn't wait for it to be legal.
I have tried CBD oil. It helps amazing with anxiety, tremors, nervousness. I wasn't depressed when I used it so I don't know how it does with that. I do know that it developed tolerance quickly and you have to ramp up doses. I have never heard of it pooping out like meds do.
