You never engaged with me in the first place you just had some sassy one liners. Did I read the study? Yes fuck wit I read all the studies included in the meta analysis 20 years ago. I’m aware of the conclusions drawn by the old studies and their sources of funding: you couldn’t pull a valid scientific critique out of your fucking ass if it was leaking. Maybe stop commenting. It’s easier than blocking all the people that are going to be irate with your idiocy…

How far has the clinical definition of depression drifted since 1980? You’re not even comparing the same disease at that time scale. It’s like no one even thought about what data to use in their data analysis. I think the stigma around mental health in 1985 was only rivaled by the stigma of drug use. What are we really studying here boiz?

Now im in the meat of it. They’re using studies with 35 participants. Seems super thorough. Great number makes the 200 participant study seem massive in comparison. They can barely draw a a conclusion due to the sampling size. lmaooo meta data analysis with bad data. Like I said I didn’t need to read this trash. but here I am. 23% of US adults use cannabis I’m sure they can run a real study if they wanted to learn something.

it said we did a meta analysis and it was in conclusive due to lack of data. They hug tight onto a 2016 study that confirmed what they wanted to say. wonderful abstract paper, that patted themselves on the back and drew some conclusions almost out of thin air. I learned soooooo much.

"There was insufficient data for ADHD, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and tobacco use disorder. Cannabinoids were associated with a greater risk of all-cause adverse events compared with placebo, but no higher odds of serious adverse events or study withdrawal. This Article systematically evaluates the efficacy and safety of cannabinoids for some of the most common indications that they are used to treat, providing clarity during a time of expanding clinical use. Sleep issues, post-traumatic stress disorder, and depression are some of the leading indications that cannabinoids are used to treat, yet there were only four randomised controlled trials for sleep issues, three for post-traumatic stress disorder, and none for depression that examined cannabinoid efficacy."

DID YOU??? CAN YOU THINK AND BREATH AT THE SAME TIME? Said the same thing I did. Not enough evidence.

You’re going to have to point out where I was incorrect, they claim they used a model to exclude bias, but also included studies from the period of time. Is there something I need to look at directly. It reads just like any other cannabis study out there.

Here’s how we debate things when we can rub to brain cells together. From the article.

“There was insufficient data for ADHD, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and tobacco use disorder. Cannabinoids were associated with a greater risk of all-cause adverse events compared with placebo, but no higher odds of serious adverse events or study withdrawal.

What would make data from 1980 relevant compared to data from a current state who’s not under prohibition? Do you think normal people were jumping to take part in a government approved cannabis study when it could have them sent to jail for 25 years ??? Cmon man think about the data sets we’re using here.

It seems like you’re all really happy when some loosely slapped together science that confirms what you think so I can see why that is the common criticism around here.
