Body's own marijuana helps us forget traumatic memories
The endogenous compound anandamide—often referred to as the body's own marijuana—plays a role in erasing memories of a traumatic event. This was discovered by an international team led by Leiden chemist Mario van der Stelt. The results have been published in Nature Chemical Biology and may provide a starting point for the treatment of anxiety disorders such as PTSD.

Cannabis is amazing as it can help PTSD ( one remembers too much) and can help Alzheimer’s (one remembers too little) BECAUSE it supplements your Endocannabinoid System (ECS) which controls almost all your body systems, including memory.
