Study: Marijuana Tied to Persistent Subclinical Psychotic Symptoms

The study is published in the August issue of the American Journal of Psychiatry.
quote:
The researchers found that for each year the teens engaged in weekly marijuana use, their level of subsequent subclinical psychotic symptoms rose by 21%. The increase was greatest for paranoia (133%) and hallucinations (92%).
quote:
"For every additional year adolescents engage in regular marijuana use, their risk of exhibiting subclinical paranoia and hallucinations in future years increases in a linear manner, and the effect of cumulative use remains significant even during periods of abstinence lasting a year," the investigators note.
The effect of prior regular marijuana use on subsequent subclinical psychotic symptoms persisted even after the teens stopped using marijuana for a year.

He was invited by the "cool kids" to hang out at some kids house whose liberal parents had left for the weekend.
My brother, always a moral and thoughtful individual, wanted to attend because it was one of those massive house parties that he'd never been to.
Well, as was later recalled by some of his friends at the party, he was pressured into smoking marijuana. He ended up smoking the entire pack of marijuana cigarettes.
Not long after he went into convulsions and started foaming at the mouth. The people at the party held back calling 9/11 for almost 10 minutes.
When the paramedics finally arrived they could do nothing to save him.
The autopsy revealed he had 3 times the lethal dosage of blood in his THC.
But I'm sure everyone here will deny my story and the fact that my brother died after smoking that illegal narcotic.

Marijuana shouldn't be used by teens - it's fine for adults tho

1972 called and they went their one strain of marijuana back.
It's 2017 we have thousands of strains - many of which do not call paranoia.

It also led them to playing/listening to jazz like those dangerous negros.

For years, now, experts have been sounding the alarm about a possible link between marijuana use and psychosis. One of the best-known studies followed nearly 50,000 young Swedish soldiers for 15 years. Those who had smoked marijuana at least once were more than twice as likely to develop schizophrenia as those who had never smoked pot. The heaviest users (who said they used marijuana more than 50 times) were six times as likely to develop schizophrenia as the nonsmokers.

Brother, I love you, but that's not true. THC is in all of them.

I'm pro-legalization, but you have to really bury your head in the sand to believe that there are no problems associated with marijuana usage and developing brains.
If you're an adult, go ahead and light up.

I may or may not have, at certain points in my life, emptied most tobacco from a pack of cigarettes, filled them with marijuana, put them back in the Marlboro pack, and resealed the package for the purpose of going in to a concert.

Are you saying the study is fake?
Posted on 4/13/17 at 11:35 pm to HempHead
smoking an entire pack of 420 is a fake story.
get someone else to write your gags.
