I would be real careful stopping medication. I do not have depression. Although 2 out of the four women i have seriously dated have had it at some point in there lives. How can smoking a depresant..~marijuana ~ help your depression? That does not seem to make sense, we know alcohol does not work. I know it works for anxiety in some and makes it worse in others. show me a well published doctors paper stating that pot helps and i might believe. best of luck to all you depressed peeps.
