Cannabis can precipitate the first episode of psychosis
If someone has a predisposition to a psychotic illness, such as schizophrenia, use of drugs such as cannabis may trigger the first episode in what can be a lifelong, disabling condition.

Actually it IS true and it DOES happen, even to long time users.  You never know what mental illness is just waiting to be tripped off.

CANNABIS PSYCHOTIC DISORDER

Further research is urgently needed to help validate the diagnosis of cannabis psychosis by health professionals (Greyner, Luborsky and Solowij, 1995; Dews, 1972; Gruber and Pope, 1994), especially since up-to-date research has not been done on the new strain with very high potency.

In 1994, (Ashwood, 1995) a number of young people, aged between the late teens to late twenties, were affected by florid psychotic episodes.

"There was, and as is [sic] now, no known evidence for the cause of their problems, other than their heavy cannabis use, whether it [is] chronic or acute. Laboratory tests and histories failed to reveal any use of the psycho stimulants one would expect to see involved. Nor was there any pre existing latent or prodromal psychotic disorder as the alternative explanation." (p. 49)

As Goodman and Gilman explain, "Because of the high prevalence of marihuana use, dysphoric reactions and psychiatric emergencies as a result of smoking marihuana... can also cause an acute exacerbation of symptomatology in stabilized schizophrenics, and is and independent risk factor for the development of schizophrenia." (p. 3).

I doubt this part of it. Highly unlikely. Long time users? Where is pot gonna take them that they haven't already been?

More research is urgently needed to determine if abusive treatment centers can induce mental illness. Individuals predisposed to mental illness would certainly be more likely to develop them when placed in these conditions.

 I wonder if there is any research suggesting treatment centers are a contributing factor to drug abuse. It's not much of a stretch. People with mental illness, those suffering from trauma and even those who suffer from learning disabilities have been known to self medicate.

Most mental health professionals would agree that long term abusive conditions like those found in Straight can precipitate a psychic break.

I wish a study could be conducted to determine which is more hazardous to your mental health, Straight or Marijuana. Having done both, Straight gets my vote as the clear winner. Not even a close race. In fact in terms of  disruption to my coping skills, self esteem, relationships, mental health & happiness, there is nothing that is even a close second.

I wish some genuine statistical research could be done on the subject. I'll eat my car if it doesn't prove that Straight was hazardous to your health.

The sadist cannot stand the separation of the public and the private; nor can he grant to others the mystery of their personality, the validity of their inner self...in order for him to feel his maximum power, he wants the world to be peopled with concrete manipulatable objects...
-- ERNEST BECKER, The Structure of Evil, 1968.

another pointless morsel from Scarstruck to drive home the fact that he believes his addiction is cooler than yours.

Cannabis can precipitate the first episode of psychosis

If someone has a predisposition to a psychotic illness, such as schizophrenia, use of drugs such as cannabis may trigger the first episode in what can be a lifelong, disabling condition. There is increasing evidence that regular cannabis use precedes and causes higher rates of psychotic illness. Psychotic illnesses are characterised by:

Delusions - for example the person believes they have special powers.

Hallucinations - for example the person hears voices or sees things that aren't really there.

Thought disorder - for example the person has difficulty organising their thoughts.

When people experience psychotic symptoms, they are unable to distinguish what is real. They lose contact with reality.



"


Cars CAN kill people if they collide with them.  Water MAY cause death by drowning if it is inhaled.  Food HAS BEEN KNOWN to cause some individuals to choke and asphyxiate.

Don't post your DFAF anti-weed propaganda here.

I am NOT in favor of mere legalization of marijuana, I want marijuana use to be MANDATORY, with the death penalty for you squares that won't smoke it.  With us or by us, YOU WILL GET WASTED!
