After three long months of waiting, the data was finally available for a whopping 2,112 patients. And if that wasn’t enough, after a whole year, the number jumped to a staggering 777. That’s right, folks, we’re talking about some serious numbers here.
But let’s not get too caught up in the digits, because what’s truly remarkable is the information that these numbers hold. You see, around 25% of the population involved in this study admitted to having suicidal thoughts at the start. And that’s not all – they were also struggling with depression and a whole host of other symptoms, including difficulty sleeping, poor health, and a low quality of life.
But here’s where things get interesting. After three months of being treated with medical marijuana, the researchers noticed some major improvements. The rates of suicidal ideation dropped to a mere 17.6%, and there were also significant improvements in depression scores. It’s almost hard to believe, but it’s true – medical marijuana may just be the key to unlocking the elusive treatment for depression and suicidal thoughts.
And let’s be real, folks, these are not easy conditions to treat. They can be downright debilitating and can take a serious toll on a person’s well-being. But with the help of medical marijuana, there may be hope for those who have been struggling for far too long.
So there you have it, folks. The evidence is in, and it’s looking pretty darn promising. Who knows, maybe one day we’ll be seeing medical marijuana as a mainstream treatment for depression and suicidal ideation. And that, my friends, would be a game-changer.
