Weed is actually ‘rarely justified’ to treat anxiety or depression, says major scientific review

A little green might not be a cure for the blues.

New research suggests medical marijuana isn’t the mental health miracle many hope for, finding little evidence that it can effectively treat conditions like anxiety, depression or PTSD.

“In the absence of robust medical or counselling support, the use of medicinal cannabis in these cases [is] rarely justified,” Dr. Jack Wilson, lead author of the study, said in a press release.

The study, billed as the “largest review of medical cannabis to date,” analyzed 54 randomized controlled trials published between 1980 and 2025.

  1. Weed is legal now, if made illegal again, it will be like prohibition all over again. People will smoke it, but go back to their tax free sources.
