Hi everyone, I have a quick question

I was diagnosed bipolar type 2/general depression a few years ago. Over the past 6 months or so I've used cannabis a few times and I'm starting to see a positive effect on my general mood.. even after the high is gone.

The main thing is that I feel more clear-headed. I'm starting to wonder if I am over-medicated and the change in perspective helps me realize it.. does that make any sense?

I've talked about this a little bit with my psychiatrist, but he seems to be a little dubious of medical marijuana so I don't always feel comfortable bringing it up (other than that he's great though).

Anyways, I am hoping you guys might have some advice or relevant anecdotes.


Heres the medication I'm on, in case that makes a difference:

Lithium
Lamictal
Welbutrin
Zoloft



thanks!
