Answer 1

maybe... unless you've had like a spiritual expierence and now your a happy person with new goals//

Answer 2

Smoking weed for depression does not work....only increases your anxieties..so you smoke more to relieve these feelings.  A vicious circle..get off Pot and get on Meds....only for a short time!!

Answer 3

Sure it is temporary, and smoking it is not a good way to take it.  Have you taken "B" vitamins?

Answer 4

well obviously

Answer 5

Trouble is when you try to quit, anxiety paranoia and

depression come roaring back the next day, week,

or month. Most people I know who deal with depression in this way develop huge habits because of huge tolerances.

Answer 6

Weed was once assigned by doctors to relieve depression, it's illegal to sell and use around in public however. If it's painful to cope with something, talk to a professional or a close friend about it, do that easily helps relieve depression

Answer 7

weed is a downer as it is. it might not help with depression. if it is for you for now then great. but it probably only makes you feel good when you smoke it but not when your sober. smoking it once or twice wont take care of it.

if you struggle with depression you should see a doctor for a perscription

Answer 8

use whatever works for your depression

Answer 9

Is this a smokescreen for you to smoke weed??

Well I do not used weed but it does not do any thing for you smoking it!. For it to do any thing for you, or any one Else you will have to boil it like tee and drink it, but not smoke it, so do not try to fiend excuse to smoked it, that won't work, you should go to jail if you are not drinking it OK??.

Answer 10

Smoking weed is probably the last thing you want to do. I'd get professional help. cannabis has been linked to schizophrenia. Not something you need.

While I know I sound down on you, I'm not. I just think that weed is a dangerous drug if used improperly.

Answer 11

The only relief for any affliction is to remove the cause. Smoking is just like looking in another direction so that you don't see it, but even though you don't see it if you smoke, it is still there.

The point is that there is usually a cause for depression, and if you want to move beyond it, you really need to address whatever is causing it.

So yes, smoking weed is only a temporary fix.

Answer 12

yes,it will come back and be even worse.while u r high it will make u calm and relaxed,but after a couple days of not smoking u will be very moody and snappy. weed oes not cure anything to my knowledge it just slows it down(glaucoma)
