Who was diagnosed with depression 30 years ago received a recommendation from her psychiatrist. She had been using but not legally and had asked her doctor. She was the first he recommended, but that number has grown significantly. Vaporizing without fear or guilt, and an edible before bedtime to sleep, she has been extremely stable and on an extremely low dose of anti-depressants. A side benefit is that it has been very effective in reducing arthritis symptoms and other orthopedic pain.
