Hello, I’m Chris the founder of CannaChris Health.

I had been on various prescription medications since I was in the second grade, ironically for a health issue I didn’t have (ADHD). Since then I have been on over 40 different prescription medications, mostly just to balance out the ADHD meds with their plethora of dangerous side effects. In 2008 I realized there might not actually be anything wrong with me and slowly and safely weaned off the medications I was on. What I was left with was chronic anxiety and depression, a side effect of being on Adderall for so many years when my brain was developing, and chronic back pain, which was unrelated but important nonetheless.

I tried living all natural between 2008 and 2012 and had an improvement in quality of life, but it was not enough. Even with my healthy and active lifestyle, I was still stressed, I was still depressed, and I had lost my motivation and lust for life. My back pain was also getting worse.

Near the end of 2012, I was getting desperate and saw a doctor who recommended I try cannabis to see if it alleviated my symptoms. I was reluctant but out of options. I made an appointment, saw a specialist, got my medical cannabis card, and went to a dispensary to pick up my first prescription, a strain called "Dutch Treat," which is still my go to for anxiety and depression relief.

I was shocked to find that a plant, a plant that I had thought was so dangerous and whose users I looked down on for so long, was the safe and effective alternative to pills that had messed up my life.

So I started reading and researching. I wanted to know everything about cannabis. I learned about it from a standpoint of botany, neuroscience, history, health benefits, cannabis law, growing, harvesting, et cetera…. I became fascinated, reading every book I could get my hands on and watching every documentary. Some of my favorite books and documentaries are on the website on the “Learn More" page.

So now I’m ready to pass on what I’ve learned to help others. For years I had helped others live healthy clean lives on the side from my main IT work, and now I’m specializing in cannabis-related heath.

So whether you’re just curious about cannabis, especially with it going on the ballot to be fully legalized in California next year, or if you want to see about how it could help you or your health conditions, I’m here to help.
