Why this petition matters

Started by Alicia Chesser

There are 25 listed medical conditions to select from while applying for a medical marijuana card. Only one of those being a condition that is related to mental health. Postpartum depression/anxiety is something that women struggle with every single day, everywhere. Many struggle in silence because they do not want to be put on antidepressants. We need to show these mamas more support. More options. Mother’s shouldn’t be shamed for taking care of their mental health in ways that work for them. They should be supported and encouraged to do what feels right for them. Let’s normalize medical marijuana prescriptions for women struggling with postpartum. Let’s support these mother’s. Let’s support something that helps them be more patient with their children. Let’s support something that gets them out of bed to cook for their children and themselves. Let’s support something that helps ease the weight of stress and anxiety. Let’s support these mother’s.
