Levels of anxiety and depression have been increasing dramatically during COVID-19. On top of the pandemic, the west coast is on fire, there's a major social justice movement, and the U.S. has an incredibly contentious general election about 40 days away. Needless to say, we could all do with a safe and healthy way to chill out. Enter: Cannabis!

This episode Dr. Peter Grinspoon gives us a little medical guidance on how to properly recuperate with marijuana and use it to help with anxiety and depression so we can all continue to survive 2020.
