[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You should care. I know someone who smoked a bit of weed around that time (started as a way to relax after a tragedy) and after a couple of years was a paranoid schizophrenic. No family history of any psychiatric disorders at all. A really promising life completely down the drain. Heartbreaking.[/quote]

You have no idea what he was doing he could have easily hit his head or eaten bad meat w a parasite. [/quote]

He had very good medical care and was tested for everything. He's been this way for decades now.[/quote]

Of course, schizophrenia usually manifests in males in their late teens or early twenties. And he could have been smoking pot to cope with initial presentation.

Have you heard of correlation?[/quote]

Thank you[/quote]

You think Harvard Medical School doesn't understand the concept of correlation?  :roll: [/quote]

Seriously. Did nobody bother to read the link somebody else posted here on page 2? https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/teens-who-smoke-pot-at-risk-for-later-schizophrenia-psychosis-201103071676

Pot is also strongly linked to lower IQs in developing brains (through about age 25 in boys). Plenty of studies if you google. Focus on the studies that track kids as they mature. [/quote]
