Anonymous Iowan: “When I called a suicide hotline number, they told me to look up the effects of medical cannabis.”

Here’s a testimonial from a young man who found relief when he moved to California:

“I am 27 years old and have suffered from depression and I self harm and cant afford my medication. When I called a suicide hotline number, they told me to look up the effects of medical cannabis. During this time I was diagnosed with diabetic nerve pain so I went and visited my aunt in California for a year and I saw a doc and he prescribed me Cannabis and it was such a life changer for me. My pain lessoned, both mental and physical. For a year I didn’t suffer from panic attacks from my flashbacks of my molestation.”
