[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This only happens to people who have psychotic features already present. [/quote]

My sister had schizophrenia and out of the countless medications she took marijuana was the only medication that allowed her to sleep. Just the opposite.

My friend smoked weed every morning and various other times since she was 14 years old.  35 years later she’s still smoking it. She was a petite teen and as a grownup never gained a pound.  Same teen body and no health concerns.

I do think psychosis would be triggered only if you were predisposed to it.    But not everyone knows their family history or who might be predisposed.   [/quote]

Those are anecdotes.

The linked article builds on the body of evidence demonstrating marijuana is 
 harmful to the developing teen brain.[/quote]

I know they are anecdotes but if you ask anyone about weed quite a few would have stories about the teens who smoked every day.  Not too many stories about ending up in the hospital. [/quote]

And most smokers don’t have lung cancer! Your comment reveals a profound lack of understanding of how life altering psychosis can be. [/quote]
