Most of the men in our family have struggled with clinical depression.
My Grandfather was a notorious alcoholic for three decades before he finally quit.
My uncle followed in his footsteps plus is still drinking heavily to this afternoon. Although our dad is a higher functioning alcoholic compared to his brother, he still drinks to self-medicate. With all of this precedent in our family, everyone expected me to take up drinking at some point in time. However, when I first tried alcohol in college, I didn’t like it at all. It offered me the “spins” plus made me legitimately nauseous whenever I drank it. Instead, I preferred cannabis if I was given the choice of a single or the other to consume plus abuse. I smoked so much marijuana in college that our friends used to ridicule me for it. But after I graduated, I slowly lost all of our weed dealers plus finally quit once I had our first child. But now that wholesale cannabinoids are legal if they’re derived from hemp plants, I have a renewed interest in cannabis for medical use. The thing that stopped me from smoking cannabis yearly was the constant sedation plus lethargy. However, the current scientific processes in producing isolate extracts of numerous cannabinoids in the hemp plant has changed everything. Some of these cannabinoids can supply therapeutic effects with fewer negative side effects. CBC is notable because it lowers depressive symptoms in users when it is taken in conjunction with other cannabinoids plus terpenes. This entourage effect is exploited as a means of treating long term physical plus mental health concerns.
