Prob isn’t going to change your mind, but tobacco and alcohol both have higher chances of inducing some form of psychosis than cannabis.

CIP isn’t very well studied yet, and is mostly symptomatic in patients that indulge in prolonged and heavy cannabis use at a young age. There hasn’t been enough evidence collected to rule out correlative conditions like schizophrenia, which is known to be exacerbated by any psychoactive substance unlike cannabis.

There are of course people who shouldn’t smoke cannabis on a regular basis, but for the most part, cannabis is a healthier choice for most healthy adults than alcohol, tobacco, and a large amount of prescription drugs.

so you kind of overdose most of the time as the cannabis from then is not the same as the cannabis from now. It’s something entirely different now and what association you had with it is not valid anymore.

Lol, you can’t “overdose” on cannabis, unless over dosing is just taking a nap.

my personal friendships are several people who have lost family members to cannabis, either by schizophrenia or them getting smushy in the brain and stranding on the street or living by at minimum wage and healthcare.

Kinda just sounds like your using cannabis as an excuse to abandon your friends and family going through a rough patch.

healthcare for psychological evaluation and coordinating hospitalization and care. When cannabis was legalized some time ago, all who are working there could not believe their ears and eyes, they were horrified

Lol, you are clutching at pearls. I work in a hospital in an area of the US that’s known for addiction. No one here cares about pot because it’s nothing compared to dealing with patients addicted to meth, alcohol, or opioids. All of which are less popular now that pot is more widely available.

I quit smoking more than 15 years ago, but I don’t understand it either. And I mean worldwide.

Alcohol and tobacco are way more harmful to our health, why not legalize this?
