USA Today Article

quote:

There is great disagreement, however, over the strength of the science linking pot and psychosis. Advocates on either side of the marijuana debate have different interpretations of the connection reported in a National Academies 2017 report on cannabis and other studies. One from the British medical journal the Lancet released in March showed a two to five times higher risk of psychotic disorders for daily consumers of high-THC marijuana compared to people who never used.


I think they are watching us and recording everything we are saying and doing. Madeleine Albright was the key to Waco burning. There is still time.

It's also been linked to eating odd snack combinations and fast food in the wee hours of the morning.

This has been well known for decades. Just another study confirms it.

Causation and correlation. Do crazies just go to pot as a sort of release to calm their psychosis etc, or does it cause it.

I’ll go with correlation but high doses of anything could negatively impact the brain.

I never had any mental illness issues when I used daily, but my overall cognition and sharpness has gone through the roof since I stopped.

Maybe, just maybe, people with psychosis, schizophrenia, and other mental disorders, maybe they turn to drugs like marijuana to ease their affliction.

True for me too. Being dependant on anything is never good, unless it's for a medical reason.

I got tired of my profession in the mid 90's and got a job in a mental health hospital. Every single psychosis or schizophrenia patient was quite normal until they started doing weed. They did acid too. Not everyone gets this way, but those who do usually have this path.

Want to know how to discretely destroy and bring down a society or civilization?

Convince its people:
-not to reproduce and that abortion is merely a choice of convenience
-that drunkenness and mind altering drugs are acceptable
-that individual happiness is more important than duty to community
-that pornography and prostitution are acceptable

Notwithstanding the merits of the article, I can count on one hand the number of people I know who are habitual marijuana users whom I would consider successful individuals.

On another note, while recently looking at purchasing a small pharma company in Houston and its manufacturing plant, we received some details regarding CBD.

Only 4% reaches your system and none of it crosses the blood/brain barrier. Thus, 99% chance placebo effect only. This due they came up with a new substance from two other herbal extractions which actually is taken up by cannabinoid receptors in the brain and also blocks opioid receptors.

Are those two extractions T and HC?

Religious prudes certainly don’t want anyone to ever have any fun. It’s always devil this, or devil that.
