Question by Psycho: Will my doctor drug test me?
I’ve been suffering from anxiety and depression since I was 5 years old, off and on. I’m 18 now. They are both back now, worst than ever. I just recently started smoking weed for my chronic migraines, anxiety and depression. If I go to the doctor for it will be drug test me? If so, what kind?

They wont drug test you. The doctor will test your blood and probably offer you prescriptions to help with your anxiety. All doctors have different opinions, but mine had told me that weed can help anxiety by relaxing you, or it can make you panic more. If you find it helps you should keep to it and try to find someone to talk to about your problems. Prescriptions can be dangerous. Personally, it made mine worse and I had to stop. It all depends on the person

Also this is in Canada, New Brunswick, it maybe different where you are at
