antidepressants for marijuana dependency

[Cannabis Rehab Guest]

Marijuana dependency is caused by depression. The user self medicates depression with marijuana and as a result the depression gets worse and worse. If have an issue with marijuana dependency you should try taking antidepressants for a few months and see how you feel. It can't hurt. You can't get addicted to most antidepressants.
Antidepressants help with anxiety just as much as depression because anxiety is a part of depression. If you want serious treatment for your problem instead of just quitting cold turkey then go to a psychologist and explain your situation. I can almost 100% guarantee that a doctor will reiterate everything that I have said in this post and that with medication you will be able to recover. Without medication you are in for a very bad time.

Hi and welcome.

Some people do find some anti depressants to have some addictive potential, but that’s not to say they don’t have their place for those who may need them. People who stop taking marijuana can certainly suffer from anxiety and depression, some to the extent that they may need medication depending on the severity and length of time that they experience them, although of coarse whether or not to take anti depressants is a personal choice everybody has to make for themselves depending on how they feel about it, you will always get those who are for psychiatric medication and those that are against, there have been times when I have taken them in my life.

For those who feel anti depressants are not for them there are alternatives like theanine and hypnosis.
