I don't smoke and couldn't give two shits about anyone who does or doesn't, but why are you citing a study aimed at tracking young teenagers (and their psychological development) and then trying to extrapolate those findings to the adult population?

No, I'm saying it's b rate work rehashed from the early 80s or late 70s. My buddy's dad founded uf's addiction medicine department, wrote some similar bullshite in the 80s, based on case studies of 4 teens. Will openly admit over 25 years + female or 28 male poses 0 threat to your brain.
May not be false, but misleading as frick. And btw there are plenty of strains of marijuana being sold with less than industrial hemp levels of thc, 0.3% since you likely have no idea wtf you're talking about.

Fact:
Cigarettes and Alcohol are much more dangerous and kill many more people than marijuana.
Both are legal.

Found the problem.
Regular drug use of any kind in a developing brain has serious effects.
Now, let's talk about adult drug use.

Pretty fun tbh. I think everyone should spend a night out in the woods with a quarter ounce of mushrooms, a campfire, and Live at Fillmore East. It'll change your life.

Because these studies move into the young adult age.. 21-26.
Brains are still developing.

Many things aren't optimal for us to do/consume. It doesn't mean they should be illegal

Exactly. Should we ban alcohol, cigarettes, red meat, sugar, butter, french fries, pizza, soda, etc. as well? That way people can end up buying them from violent gangs that make massive profits on their prohibition instead?

I once blared Flight of the Valkyries and other Wagner across the Chattooga River while naked, folded as frick, and shooting a .45 in the sky. I felt like a veritable reincarnation of Hunter S. Thompson

quote:Well yes. This is why people who advocate for marijuana legalization, often argue that it should be treated like alcohol.
"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.
Furthermore, I would imagine that teenagers who persistently use any substance, are more likely to have clinical (or subclinical) issues anyways--especially as they get younger. Therefore, it is a self-selection issue, and often people use substances as a self-medication.
As it relates to these specific symptoms, they are symptoms that typically present themselves as individuals reach their later teens. So I could access the article, but if there isn't a control group, and we don't know how these symptoms would typically develop anyways--especially the lower threshold of subclinical symptoms.

Have you ever heard of someone dying from a marijuana overdose?
Yes.
marijuana-attributable deaths:
December, 2014: The National Institute on Drug Abuse updated its marijuana research paper, saying, “Marijuana is the illicit drug most frequently found in the blood of drivers who have been involved in accidents, including fatal ones,”
May, 2014: A study published by the University of Colorado School of Medicine found that, “the proportion of marijuana-positive drivers involved in fatal motor vehicle crashes in Colorado has increased dramatically since the commercialization of medical marijuana in the middle of 2009.”
The Office of National Drug Control Policy released a report analyzing traffic accidents from 2005 – 2009. The report noted, “Among fatally injured males who tested positive for drugs, 28 percent tested positive for cannabinoids compared with 17 percent of females,” and that, “Cannabinoids were reported in 43 percent of fatally injured drivers under age 24 who tested positive for drugs.”
