Anxiety can be a persistent and overwhelming condition, affecting every aspect of a person’s life. One particular case I encountered involved a 23-year-old woman who had been struggling with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) for over a decade. Despite various conventional treatments, including therapy and medication, she was still finding it difficult to manage her anxiety.
When she first approached me, she had been using cannabis recreationally for several years but noticed that her inconsistent usage was making her anxiety worse. She hoped medical marijuana could offer her a more structured, reliable form of relief.
Together, we created a customized plan that involved regular, low-dose cannabis use in a controlled, safe environment. By focusing on the right timing and form of medical marijuana, we aimed to help her manage her anxiety symptoms without the unwanted effects she had experienced previously. Over time, her condition improved significantly, and she was able to participate more fully in her personal and professional life.
This case illustrates that medical cannabis, when used correctly and under professional guidance, can be a powerful tool for managing anxiety. Self-medicating is rarely successful and can lead to developing problem. Working with a physician specializing in cannabis medicine will lead understanding how cannabis can fit into a larger therapeutic approach.If you’re struggling with anxiety and looking for professional guidance on how medical marijuana may help, Dr. Jordan Tishler’s expertise can provide the insight and personalized treatment plan you need.
