For many people dealing with mental health issues, to explore using cannabis as a treatment seems overwhelming because of two stigmas. First is the stigma of their condition, and second the stigma still lingering with medical cannabis in some communities. How can we reduce these stigmas? And what do patients with mental health issues need to do to begin that exploration?
In this episode, we bring you a panel discussion from a recent Mind Body expo that explores these questions is some depth.
Our panelists include:
- Sara Makin, of Makin Wellness in Pittsburgh. Her practice provides diagnosis and treatment for many mental health conditions, but especially anxiety and PTSD, which are qualifying conditions in PA.
- Richard Greer, Pharmacy Director for Solevo Wellness, a dispensary in Pittsburgh.
- Chad Rodman of Medical Marijuana Solutions, which provides patient certifications in many locations across mid and western PA. He’s also a patient who treats his anxiety with cannabis.
Recorded on September 28, 2019 in Monroeville PA.
