Dear client Marijuana is a naturally occurring psychoactive substance.Its active  ingredient THC is responsible for altering the state of mind  temporarily. It gives a sense of well being. However it is not approved for use as antidepressant.It has strong addictive potential. Ther is no standard preparations and no long term advantage over conventional medicine. Its long term use can give  symptoms which are similar to depression. So its better that it's  banned for use.

It doesn't lower symptoms of depression. On the contrary stop smoking it as it will cause schizophrenia. It's banned for good reason
