Episode description

Levels of anxiety and depression have been increasing dramatically during COVID-19. On top of the pandemic, the west coast is on fire, there's a major social justice movement, and the U.S. has an incredibly contentious general election about 40 days away. Needless to say, we could all do with a safe and healthy way to chill out. Enter: Cannabis!

This episode Dr. Peter Grinspoon gives us a little medical guidance on how to properly recuperate with marijuana and use it to help with anxiety and depression so we can all continue to survive 2020.
Dr. Grinspoon is a Harvard-trained primary care physician at Mass General Hospital, who specializes in medical cannabis. He’s an instructor at Harvard Medical School, he’s a board member of Doctors for Cannabis Regulation, and he’s the author of “Free Refills: A Doctor Confronts His Addiction.” Find out more at PeterGrinspoon.com
