Study finds no evidence cannabis helps anxiety, depression, or PTSD

It's good to see science confirm what anybody who has accidentally taken too large of edibles dose understands.

Ive overdosed edibles multiple times and I dont know what you talk about.

The studies cited by this metastudy all suffer from the same issue: They aren't studying the cannabis plant at all and even if they are, it's not in the chemovars (chemical makeups) that real consumers are actually consuming - due to cannabis sourcing issues stemming from cannabis's continued illegality.

For randomized controlled trials, even in "legal" states, university scientists can't just walk into a dispensary and buy cannabis to then administer to test subjects.

That's Post-Prohibition for you.

As far as I can tell, most (EDITED FROM ALL) of the studies utilize isolates - and not necessarily in conjunction.

For instance, none of the 6 anxiety studies included in this metastudy used THC and CBD together.

The headline could read instead: No evidence cannabinoid isolates help anxiety, depression, or PTSD.

Cannabis advocates are the first to mention the entourage effect. Cannabis prohibitionists on the other hand, love nothing more than to cite incomplete science.

Well how do you know if you overdosed? What else happens besides anxiety and paranoia? Some of the reaction may be genetic, but I think many people have a negative reaction to taking mass quantities of cannabis. I don't know if you want to take a poll here but it's pretty common...
