Between this, and 20% of boys on mind altering perscritpions (Ridalin) for the high crime of acting like a boy instead of a grownup or a girlie man, our current situation is quite predictable

So, maybe there was some truth in those old movies like REEFER MADNESS after all!

You can't take the results of one research study as gospel...even if it's from a respected researcher.The results need to replicated by other centers...preferably ones in Boston,New York,Baltimore,San Francisco,etc.

Yeah, I think the article was saying that 25% of the newly diagnoses illnesses in all young men may be related to marijuana use, not one in four users going crazy.

Finally, people are starting to come to the party...

Why now?

Pot causes psychosis. The degree of psychosis depends on how much is smoked and the make-up of the person smoking.

But it causes psychosis in the smoker. It is seen by the almost immediate sense of irrational fear and you take it from there.

No, the feds should stay out of drugs and probably state governments as well. Nevertheless, education about the truth of the harmful effects of pot needs to be published widespread. Maybe this will start to happen.

"Title and excerpt say two completely different things."

*****

I made a mistake. At least I'm not full on schizo from that dank Texas skunk weed, so there's that.

Here's your excerpt:

Like The New York Times, psychiatrists may finally be waking up to the imminent mental health disaster coming after decades of lies about the risks of cannabis to the brain.

Last week, at the 2022 International Congress of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, a Danish researcher suggested that cannabis might be responsible for 25 percent of new cases of schizophrenia in young men.

This figure is far higher than previous estimates, which generally ranged from 5 to 10 percent. It would translate into tens of thousands of additional cases of new-onset schizophrenia annually in the United States and Europe.

“Why all the hating on weed? Give it up Nancy Reagan!”

It’s making people hear voices, color their hair purple, and cut off their yin yangs.

“Explained a lot, really.”

Really really? That's real!

How much is a lot? I mean there was your understanding then this study came to your attention. Did it confirm all your suspicions? Exceed them beyond your expectations?

Also, what was explained, exactly? Are there any other explanations? Seeking an explanation on that.

All this stuff makes me thirsty. Maybe a cocktail, but who’s counting? Oh, yeah, I don’t drink.. but you go ahead. Or a cup of coffee might do the trick.

Even though it has been mocked incessantly for 90 years, “Reefer Madness”, the 1930s movie was truth!
