You’re relying upon the effects of recreational use for relief of anxiety much as someone who drinks alcohol. Very regular use in my experience, not heavy but daily, leads to tolerance and the need to consume more to achieve the desired effect(s). Over a period of years those effects begin to change, it certainly did for me and for a number of people in my acquaintance. It builds up in fatty tissue, maybe the body begins to reject it, I have no idea but it’s a very real thing. So, I wouldn’t be touting it quite so hard as you have been, personally.

Actually I use cannabis ONLY because it successfully treats depression & anxiety plus all the goodies that come along with both for ME. Prior to Feb 2015 I was not a cannabis user of any kind on any level.

This can be true if you are not careful in how you use cannabis. I’ve found I can maintain a level tolerance if I juggle the ways I ingest or inhale cannabis. One day I might eat an edible in the early evening & vape before bedtime. The next day I might smoke in the lat afternoon & vape right before bedtime. It’s important to me to keep my tolerance low as I can’t afford to buy larger quantities of cannabis than what I currently use.
