    Cannabis & Mental Health: The Soft Escape

    Why do people use cannabis?For some, it's about relaxation. For others, it's sleep, anxiety, overstimulation, or simply finding a way to switch off after a long day.In this episode, we're having an honest conversation about cannabis and mental health — without taking sides.We explore the reasons people turn to weed, what science says about its potential benefits and risks, the relationship between cannabis and neurodivergence, and the difficult question many of us avoid asking:Is this helping me heal, or helping me avoid?From personal experiences to current research, we discuss the fine line between relief and reliance, calm and numbness, coping and escaping.No judgement. No agenda. Just a conversation.
