For decades, federal policy claimed cannabis had no accepted medical use while opioid prescriptions moved through the health care system by the tens of millions. Cannabis Lies Vol. 10 exposes the contradiction behind Schedule I, blocked research, medical cannabis patients, and the institutions that spent years pretending politics was medicine.
Cannabis and mental health risks are often overstated in public debate.

A new cannabis study claims marijuana does nothing for anxiety, depression, or PTSD. The reality is far more complicated. Decades of federal restrictions, limited research access, and synthetic substitutes have shaped the science. This breakdown exposes how incomplete data and selective interpretation continue to drive misleading headlines about cannabis and mental health.
