I wouldn't read too much into this story, as any people who do benefit from THC probably wouldn't be visiting an emergency department for cannabis-related reasons. I'll also say, as someone with an anxiety disorder, that it certainly didn't make it worse. For me, it worked pretty much like Xanax: did wonders for my anxiety, but I couldn't manage to get anything done, so I had to switch back to my usual not-completely-effective meds.
