That presumes you have depression. If you do, I am as well. In grad school, my university counseling center tried several (some of which had been tried in childhood), and then diagnosed me with CPTSD and GAD from the treatment I endured in K12, handed me an alaprazolam script, and encouraged me to try to live a fulfilling life on top of being on the autistic spectrum. OTOH I found cannabis helps when other things didn't, but there were supply chain issues since I was rapidly shifting from nearly joining the NSA to, by my mid 20s, authoring the beginnings of a PhD thesis on how we could better design anonymnity tools for non-computer scientists, which I recently posted in new but don't want to spam. The issue is that we pretend there is one treatment for all sadnesses, when often sadness is reactive. Combine that with the fact folks often want to do drugs to feel good, and that IMHO adds value to cannabis -- it's less addictive than alaprazolam or SSRIs and can be stopped more rapidly with less dangerous side effects. (Feel free to drop contact details if you want to discuss this further, today is the last Friday I will be posting about anything but tech on HN, but it's hard to do that: the personal computer is political.)
