Cannabis decreased the number of depressed days in a patient with bipolar disorder


A case report of a patient with bipolar disorder was presented. Mood data was prospectively collected over two years of total substance abstinence and two years of extreme cannabis use. Cannabis use did not alter the total number of days of abnormal mood. However, cannabis was associated with an increase in the number of manic days and a decrease in the number of depressed days.
