Combat, car accidents, and abuse are just a few of the events that can result in PTSD. PTSD is commonly caused by two factors: (1) a traumatic event (2) followed by several weeks or more of fear, nausea, dizziness, depression, and\/or sleep disturbances The symptoms of PTSD can last for several decades.<\/p><p style=\"color: #000000;\">The three main characteristics of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mymarijuanacards.com\/michigan\/ptsd-qualifies-for-medical-marijuana-in-michigan\/\">Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder<\/a> are:<\/p><ol><li><p style=\"color: #000000;\">The reenactment of traumatic events<\/p><\/li><li><p style=\"color: #000000;\">Increased arousal<\/p><\/li><li><p style=\"color: #000000;\">Avoidance<\/p><\/li><\/ol><p style=\"color: #000000;\">Reliving can take the form of flashbacks or nightmares. Increased arousal is a hypervigilant state that can manifest as paranoia. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) can help people with PTSD, but it is not always effective. Prior to the legalization of medical cannabis in Michigan, many PTSD patients would use cannabis illegally to help relieve nightmares, panic attacks, control overwhelming emotions, and reduce self-destructive behavior. Medical marijuana has been shown in studies to help treat the symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. The FDA approved the use of medical cannabis for veterans suffering from PTSD based on the findings of these studies. How does marijuana affect the body? Cannabinoid receptors are found throughout our bodies and brains. When activated by cannabis, these receptors provide restorative and palliative properties. Cannabis has been shown to alleviate the following PTSD symptoms:<\/p><ul><li><p style=\"color: #000000;\">Trouble Sleeping\/ Insomnia<\/p><\/li><li><p style=\"color: #000000;\">High
