I actually suffer from mental health issues (which were NOT brought on by cannabis i add!) and i actually found that when i was having a bad time with it, smoking a joint actually helped me through it. Since then I have stopped but that is due to financial reasons and the fact my other half doesn't like it. I have also seen cannabis being used as a form of pain relief in people who have illnesses such as cancer or where there is near constant pain. So there is an argument promoting the use of cannabis... But anything stronger than that I wouldnt personnaly touch with a 60ft barge pole!
