    Have you stopped doing things you truly enjoy since you started smoking heavily.
    You may be losing aspects of your essence that you once cherished.
    Just a thought,

    Depression is all in your head.

    If you realize that your depressed, there's no reason that you can't stop it.

    I've never felt depression really. Maybe you should lay off the herb for a week or two. Is there any reason why you think you are depressed? Don't worry, be happy:)

    I have been through depression and it is not as easy as just recognizing that you are depressed and changing your thoughts.

    I find that weed helps me with my depression, but everyone is different in that regard. I do know that weed makes my thought patterns more focused and I can easily dwell on things that would bother me. For me anyway, weed does make it easier for me to remind myself that I can't change any of the things that bother me tonite, so I'll just enjoy being high and I am able to let things go more easily.

    If you are young, some studies do seem to indicate that cannabis can worsen depression in younger users. Unfortunately due to the illegal nature of the plant, you'll have to carefully evaluate if it is worth it to continue use for now if it is causing depression. You won't get any help from your doc if you tell him you smoke cannabis other than a blanket recommendation to quit immediately. I say take a break and see how you do, then when you are maybe more stable try again. Do not however be afraid to tell your doc if the depression doesn't go away when you take a break.

    There is nothing wrong with using antidepressants if they are absolutely necessary.
