When I smoked pot, I felt this inherent connection with the world and everyone around me. I felt like there was so much more to life than my hatred and animosity, if one would just take the time to stop and listen to the sound of the earth breathing through every creature and plant on this planet.

I was and still am awed at how cannabis completely changed my outlook on life. It doesn't just work when you're high, I think if you truly want to change or if you just begin to let it, cannabis works completely.

They say the same things on those Zoloft commercials and such.

As already stated previously in this thread, don't cover up your depression using marijuana.

I've done this and learned the hard way.

The only way I've overcome depression is changing my lifestyle to fit my pyschological wants and needs.

I think if a highly successful businessman and a manic depressive were smoking the same weed, they'd get along fine.
