If you don't mind me asking, what state are you in? I know in my state THC requires a medical card, but CBD is available at stores.

I also believe it is available federally to the general public. Some states may have a much lower demand for it and not sell much though. If you do need a card you can ask your PCP about getting one— they probably won’t be able to do it themselves but can lead you in the right direction.

Electroconvulsive therapy helps a lot with my mental health disorders! If meds haven’t worked, it’s worth it to look into it. Most psych hospitals do the procedure outpatient.
