Can Cannabis help with my bipolar?

There are nearly 40 million people living in the United States with bipolar disorder, which affects both men and women equally. Treatments for bipolar typically include pharmaceutical medications and psychotherapy, although medical cannabis is showing to be a safe and more natural alternative depending on the type of cannabis used and the method of ingestion. Various studies show that chronic cannabis use by people with bipolar can improve cognitive function and reduce risky decision-making. Other studies show that the cannabinoid CBD provides pharmacological benefits to people with depression, anxiety, addiction, and schizophrenia. Many people with bipolar disorder self-medicate with cannabis use to help manage manic and depressive symptoms.
