Hi.I understand your concern. Depression is biological reason for psychological stress.Marijuana can help to reduce stress intial stages but worsen in long term.Marijuana has high addictive potential also So it would better to avoid it.Depression and stress require biological therapy. It includes medicines.Medicines like combination of SSRI and benzodiazapine will be useful. In SSRI sertraline / escitalopram will be useful. Councelling and psychotherapy can help to reduce stress.For all you need to consult psychiatrist and get help. Still if you have a query then feel free to ask. Thank you. Take care.
