Actually, people seem to vary in their reaction to marijuana. Here in California, it is legal. I know that Sativas will give you a head high, help some pain and is supposed to help depression among other things. Indicas are for help with types of pain as well as relaxing you but can also sometimes cause depression. If you live in a place that medicinal marijuana is legal, I would use the internet and do lots of research before using it. But I just was with someone who was using it to medicate his bipolar. And as with any med, he built up a tolerance for it. And when he couldn't afford it any more and couldn't medicate his condition, he ended up manic, psychotic and got thrown in jail, then a hospital stay. So please be careful.
