Cannabis use linked to anxiety diagnoses, worsened anxiety disorders: Ontario study
- Twenty-Seven percent of individuals who had an emergency department visit for cannabis use developed a new anxiety disorder within three years, according to a study by researchers at the Bruyère Research Institute and University of Ottawa Department of Family Medicine.
- The study, which included over 12 million individuals in Ontario, Canada, found that cannabis use may worsen anxiety and increase the risk of severe or worsening anxiety disorders.
- The authors caution against using cannabis to treat anxiety, as there is a lack of evidence for its effectiveness and it may delay evidence-based treatments.
