Cannabis & Mental Health
from The Kronic Podcast · host Jake, Sima & Jessie
Jake, Sima, and Jessie are back with a real one: cannabis and mental health. They dig into what the endocannabinoid system actually does (CB1 vs. CB2), why cannabis can feel like a mood stabilizer for some people, and where the risks show up, especially with heavy use at younger ages. The conversation moves through anxiety, depression, sleep, PTSD, and the stigma that keeps people from talking honestly, while also calling out how confusing regulation has become with the hemp vs. marijuana gray zone. It’s a mix of science, lived experience, and common-sense harm reduction for anyone trying to use the plant intentionally instead of letting it use them. Educational discussion only, not medical advice. If you’re struggling, please seek support from a qualified professional.
