Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello
Welcome to HCM

Marijuana is cannabis and it is a psychoactive substance. Its use can precipitate psychosis and on long term it can precipitate depression. You have been taking marijuana for long time and are having symptoms like depressed mood, suicidal ideation, agitation and irritation. You are also having delusions. You have been advised to take amazeo and fluoxetine. I would advise you to visit your psychiatrist again and tell your drug status so that necessary adjustments in dose can be done.
Hope this helps you.

Thanks
