According to the National Institute of Mental Health,” About 40 million adults between the ages of 18 to 54 suffer from anxiety in the United States.” In fact, anxiety is one of the most common psychiatric disorders today with a wide range of treatment options. Currently, many people that suffer from anxiety aren’t being treated for it and often choose to use a substance such as marijuana in lieu of other medication. Substances like marijuana provide an alternative way to cope with mental disorders that are often incurable without professional attention and prescription medication. With the increased popularity of recreational marijuana instead of physician-prescribed marijuana, people now have more feasible access to it than ever before.
