Schizophrenia and Weed
-
Interesting. I can think of one such case from my undergraduate years in the ‘70’s. The guy is still fucked up last time I saw him about 5 years back. Brought on by some strong pot popular back in those days. It was a bad trip that has lasted fifty years.

Interesting. I went all through school with someone who killed himself at age 18. He was a heavy cannabis user, probably started at age 11 or 12. Years later a friend who was doing microfiche work with medical records tripped upon his. He was schizophrenic.

I can easily believe this. I really enjoyed it before it became so powerful., when it was a social thing to pass around a few joints. Then in the late 70's and beyond it became almost incapacitating and caused very unpleasant thoughts about myself and my life.
Whether it is cause or catalyst, this needs to be looked at very deeply.

Doesn't matter who is damaged or who dies. The money machine for the state is spitting out money and the flow will not be stopped.

Illegal never stopped it, or even slowed it down. That would be pointless. But I do think this should be looked at, like any potential health hazard, mental or physical.
