17 yr old with Depression

Hello All,

I have a 17 yr old teenage girl in my life who's struggles with depression and anxiety seem to be peaking(this whole generation seems to be struggling with similar issues). Therapy has been ineffective, and it seems the doctors don't know what to prescribe as they just keep taking shots in the dark, with this poor girl the guinea pig. I know how cannabis has helped me and I can't help but feel that it would free her from some of the shackles, perhaps illuminate the end of the tunnel, and maybe even provide a little hope. She is on an anti-depressant and ADHD medicine.

I don't have the knowledge, nor can I find unbiased information, on safely regulated cannabis use for teenage girls with these struggles, other than some potential issues with a CYP enzyme effecting the absorption of the prescription meds. Kind of at the end of my rope but need to find this girl some relief.

I'm hoping this forum might have some experience and information to share.
Thanks in advance.

This is an old thread, but I can sure relate to the story. I lost a daughter to mental health and opiates.
