A recent study shows Ma*****na is not effective for mental health disorders such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD.

The largest review of medicinal cannabis to date found it doesn’t effectively treat anxiety, depression, or PTSD—despite millions using it for those reasons. Researchers warn it could even make mental health worse, raising risks like psychosis and addiction while delaying proven treatments. Some limited benefits were seen for conditions like insomnia and autism, but the evidence is weak. The findings are fueling calls for stricter oversight as cannabis use continues to rise.

While medical cannabis may help with chemotherapy-induced vomiting or muscle spasticity, Dr. Alta DeRoo, Chief Medical Officer at Hazelden Betty Ford, says it is not the answer for mental health disorders.

When people use cannabis to attempt to manage mental health symptoms "many experience rebound anxiety, insomnia, and depression. It really doesn’t help in the long run,” says Dr. Alta DeRoo.
