Marijuana Cause Teen Depression

Government Says Use Lowers Self Esteem And Well Being Worsened
Washington, D. C.- The National Drug Control Policy Office housed in the White House sent out a message for anyone who is using marijuana, especially teenaged users: “ It’s a bad combination.â€
John Walters, who is the Office of National Drug Control Policy Director spoke out on the issue at a meeting with the media, to illustrate the issues on teens and Marijuana usage.
“Our report shows that nearly a dozen medical studies about mental health and marijuana use show that teenagers who are depressed try to self medicate and take marijuana, and it makes the condition worse,†said Director Waters.
“There are two issues and misunderstandings that we hope to clear up. One- That the Use and consumption of marijuana is not safe, and that teen depression is a real problem we have to deal with.†Said Waters
“We are urging parents and adults to talk to their teenagers, and help them realize that if they feel depression they are not alone, to help them talk to people about their depression rather than making it worse by using marijuana.
The new report from the National Drug office is called “Teen Marijuana Use Worsens Depression,â€, and it is to be made available in hard copy and on the Internet for parents, teachers and members of the public to use.
