Cannabinoids are a promising future treatment for depression; however, right now they are unproven.

There is already stigma associated with being on antidepressants. The consequences of discontinuing SSRIs or SNRIs can range from catastrophic to deadly. Please keep in mind that posts promoting alternative treatments can add to that stigma.

Not the poster, but exercise and diet really helps with my side effects. Sometimes I think about tapering off or trying some other drug, but then I get scared. I don't want to go back into the tunnel of depression.
