I know exactly what you mean by Cannabis helping you reflect on life. It helps me see thing in a more realistic light and even helps me get to the root of my anxiety. It's also easier to stop taking Cannabis than most of the 'legal' drugs being prescribed by pill pushing doctors. And it may even be less harmful, pending further research. I'm on another Cannabis forum and learned about this stuff... http://dixiebotanicals.com/products/...il-supplement/

Supposedly people are getting great anxiety suppression results without the high.

On one hand I agree with Raggamuffin that drugs only mask the symptoms. I think this school of thought includes an assumption that anxiety is a learned reaction from life experiences and can be 'unlearned' through behaviour therapy. The other school of thought is that anxiety comes from brain chemistry, cannot be changed with therapy and drugs are necessary to live with a normal level of anxiety. This has yet to be determined.

I think the most important thing to consider with Cannabis is there is a definite line between using it for medical purposes and becoming a burnout. Some smoke daily and lead very productive lives while others can barely peel themselves off their parent's couch to grab another bag of Cheetos. Just be responsible.
