Do you suffer or know someone who suffers from depression? Known as the silent disease, depression claims many lives each year. Although many patients turn to pharmaceuticals, there is a need for a natural alternative that provides a better quality of life for these patients. This alternative could be cannabis; the plant that could save many lives.
To begin with, you will surely have some questions such as: What is depression? How do I know if I suffer from it? Would cannabis help me?
According to the Panamerican Health Organization (PAHO), depression is an emotional disorder that causes a feeling of constant sadness and a loss of interest in performing different daily activities. Also called "major depressive disorder" or "clinical depression," it is a disorder that affects a person's feelings, thoughts and behavior, causing a variety of physical and emotional problems. People may have difficulty performing daily activities and sometimes feel that life is not worth living.
According to WHO, it is estimated that depression affects more than 300 million people. It is the 4th leading cause of disability worldwide; in adolescents it is the leading cause of suicide. About 800,000 people commit suicide each year, and suicide is the second leading cause of death in the 15-29 age group. Therefore, there is a greater need to address new therapeutic alternatives such as medical cannabis for the management and control of these conditions and to improve the quality of life of those who suffer from them.
