I consider myself lucky for never trying it. Some might see that as naive, but i feel it wouldnt have done me much good. I also have never struggled with depression and only minor spouts of anxiety. If i had struggled with these, i would prefer the Weed over a prescription drug.

This article just came out: Does CBD Really Do Anything? (TLDR: Yes for epilepsy, the jury is still out about almost everything else.)

For instance, pot might aid sleep, but it will not cure (or even come close to curing) a manic person's insomnia. I guarantee that if you find some crazy homeless person in a manic phase and smoke him out he will not go to sleep (unless he literally smokes enough to pass out from it). I'm not saying that anything you said is false, just that maybe whoever diagnosed her got it wrong (psychiatrists don't make accurate diagnoses 100% of the time). Maybe she was taking drugs she didn't need as a result and then weed cured the real issue that the doctors failed to diagnose, allowing her to ditch the drugs and their side effects (which weren't really solving her problem anyway because she wasn't really bipolar). Don't get me wrong, I <3 weed; all I'm saying is, it doesn't cure bipolar, and it's not exactly super rare for psychiatrists to misdiagnose someone. But it's great that whatever her issue is your girlfriend found a solution for it in pot, especially since the psychiatric establishment failed to help her.

But that doesn't change my point: pot will not let a manic person get sleep, unless they smoke so much that they pass out (at which point they won't get good sleep). It won't make your speech slow down, or make you not want to max out your credit cards, or remove the fiery fiery passion that accompanies bipolar mania (or even hypomania). It similarly won't cure depression either. Again, I'm not saying it can't help with bipolar symptoms ... though I'm not saying it can either. What I've seen suggests it can help, but I defer to science and there's not enough published research on the topic to say one way or the other. I'm just saying if you can drop all your meds and live symptom-free just by smoking pot, you probably (again, I'm not a psychiatrist) didn't have bipolar. It seems much more likely to me that the guy's girlfriend got a bad diagnosis, since there's ample evidence that happens fairly often. The brain is a hard thing to diagnose, and there are plenty of other conditions with overlapping symptoms: even ADHD can be misdiagnosed as bipolar (or vice versa).
