The Three P's

New study links medical marijuana laws to lower suicide rates

shortformblog:

• 11% reduction in the suicide rate of men ages 20-29
• 9% reduction in the suicide rate of men ages 30-39 source

» Who would have guessed that getting high reduces stress? While the study stopped short of conclusively saying that medical marijuana was the direct cause of the lower rates, the authors did note that, when used in moderation, cannabis acts as an anti-depressant. The authors also found that states with medical marijuana programs saw a reduction in alcohol consumption by young men, and note that alcohol is a known depressant. Read the full results of the study here.
