How Can PTSD Be Treated?

Hi, i suffer with PTSD due to being sexually abused as a child. Over many years I have tried the tablets from the dr s but they ve not helped at all. My friend introduced me to Marijuana last year and I ve been self medicating with that. I ve honestly never felt better. I hardly have dreams or flash backs and I feel able to get out of bed and live my life. I know Marijuana is illegal in the UK but I have seen a lot of coverage on it as of late and I was wondering if I could go to my own doctor explain this to him to see if there is anything he can do to help me ? I know he s not going to prescribe me a ten bag, but is there anything else I could try that would help me
