First you know THC is going to affect each of us differently.
I’ve been using a Delta 8 and for myself it does help
It increases my appetite but it also help to keep me active
G’Luck!🎉

My shrink thinks so I’ve had my med card for 4 years now and I am less anxious and depressed when I smoke sativa bud because it energizes you. If you want to melt into the couch and sleep buy an indica strain

I don't think anything can "get rid of" depression. But like Sandra said "it does numb you and cause you to get that high". Some people like to feel that high. It makes you feel better. I prefer it. Some people can't smoke it. They get a bad feeling with it. Everyone's different. It's up to the individual on how they feel while on it but please don't think it will get rid of depression because it won't.

No it doesn't all it does is numb you and cause you to get that high. When in reality your situation is still there waiting for the high to wear off.

Marijuana is a depressant. Please don't self-medicate.
