Cannabis has been commonly regarded as an innocuous drug, and has been used for centuries due to its multiple therapeutic effects (analgesic, anticonvulsant, sedative, antidepressant, etc.). However, growing evidence in recent years highlights the risk of adverse effects secondary to dependence and withdrawal syndrome. We report a case of severe cannabis dependence, that led to a variety of psychopathological, cognitive and somatic symptoms. This is compared with the bibliography and we analyze the influence of a possible underlying psychiatric disease. The adverse effects include affective and eating disorders, and the possibility of seizure induction. A novel therapeutic strategy in cannabis dependence is reported. Key words: Cannabis. Mania. Bulimic behaviors.
