I agree. Don't rock the boat. Just pitch 'em down the drain each morning or shove it into your pocket till you can toss it out later. Then a month later you can be like "I don't think those things are working. I don't think I feel or act any different on them."

weed is a natural antidepressant. it should work for you without u having to take Rx drugs. i know people who have been on antidepressants and i always hear them say that they feel so much happier once they go off the drugs. but you have just gotta do whatever works best for you.

Weed is a natural anti-depressant. Who feels worse every time they smoke? If you felt anything but amazing after you smoked pot, people wouldn't pay hundreds of dollars per ounce of dried flower off a natural growing plant.. and there wouldn't be anyone on these forums. Obviously, it works.

Anti-depressants do not always do what they are supposed to, mostly because there is no sure way of "curing" depression. Along with the fact that they are so heavily over prescribed, and have the potential to cause a lot more harm than good, expecially when it comes to addictions. You naturally will get over whatever depression you experienced, and sooner or later, not even remember how you were able to feel like that. So yes, people use drugs and alcohol to cope with that time it takes to get over things.. everyone does it. People incorperate it into their lives to deal with the hardships of life.

And the thought of having to use an anti-depressant in order to go on with my life, would completely diminish my self esteem right off the bat. So unless you *really* need an anti-depressant, I dont see how anyone could ever recommend one.

I'm taking Paxil I still smoke on a daily basis.I like my beer also and I don't notice any side effects.:smokin:

The Paxil and the marijuana will counteract each other, and, neither drug will be as efficacious.

The beer will compound the side-effects of the Paxil, but, at least the marijuana will ease your brain from killing off it's cells.

Thanks,beachguy until my doctor can write me a scrpt for pot I guess I'm in trouble.:D
