Using marijuana as a medicine can help people who are mentally distressed or suffering from the after-effects of a serious injury.
Marijuana’s analgesic effects can temporarily free a mentally distressed person from mental anguish and reduce the pain of someone who has suffered a serious injury. Despite these benefits, these patients should only take marijuana under the proper guidance of a doctor, and if taken incorrectly, it can lead to addiction. Also, because marijuana doesn’t have long-lasting effects, it must be taken frequently, making it easy to become addicted. For now, marijuana needs to find ways to eliminate these problems before we can talk about legalizing it.
