What exactly are the psch concerns. Doesn't weed psychosis only last a few hours? Isnt it basically someone getting to high and freaking out?

Posted a link earlier that went into some of them. I've seen it send people into hypomanic states for a few days.
Again, this is something that really happens to a select group of people. The concern isn't about them. The concern is that group widens and "normal" users also start to experience the effects.
Another imperfect analogy: when people who are fat and skinny eat mcdonalds and only the fat ones have heart attacks, you tell the fat ones to stop eating mcdonalds.
When fat and skinny people eat at Burger King, and they both start dying of heart attacks , you tell everyone to stop eating at Burger King.

Not necessarily. From the link that was posted earlier
quote:
We present a unique case of a young college student, with no family history of any psychiatric illness, who presents with psychosis secondary to cannabis abuse. His psychosis persisted long after he stopped abusing cannabis, and he needed to be treated medically for new onset bipolar disorder with psychotic features. In the face of no known genetic predisposition, it is interesting that cannabis was his only trigger for psychosis, which warrants further study into understanding the exact mechanism that cannabis affects the neurotransmission at various receptors.
Obviously its not commonplace, but I had a similar experience to this minus the longterm bipolar diagnosis.
