An Introduction to CBD
Introduction Cannabidoil or “CBD” is one of the 113 cannabinoid compounds found in Cannabis. Contrary to Tetrahydrocannidoil (THC), CBD doesn’t alter your mental state, getting you “high” (see also: Baked; Stoned; Wonky; Blitzed). Both compounds do work in a similar way though, reacting with natural Cannabinoid receptors within the brain and immune system to administer their own unique effects. As I mentioned before there are at least 111 other cannabinoids however these two are the only ones we’re concerned about for now.

How Marijuana Has Helped Me Mentally
Marijuana has helped me mentally for several years now. I have an array of mental scars and pain due to past traumas and mental illnesses. I was abused in several ways as a child and it has taken a toll that has carried through into adulthood. PTSD is a serious illness and I am lucky to have a less severe form than most Americans. There have been times that I have felt so low due to these traumas that I have had to be hospitalized and put on so many medications that absolutely do not help. Sure, depression medication can help to a certain degree. Mood stabilizers can help to balance between the highs and the lows. But nothing can really take away that pain and trauma, not even marijuana. However, the medications that physicians push can fry your brain and numb you into someone that you do not even recognize. For me using marijuana as a medicinal alternative has been life-changing.
