“ he may be also self medicating besides what he is prescribed.”

Marijuana, and all the THC concentrates now available from it, are particularly bad for borderline psychotics.

Most anti-psychotic prescription drugs work by limiting dopamine in the brain. Marijuana and THC are potent at increasing dopamine.

In addition to that effect, marijuana/THC is well documented to reduce motivation and ambition.

If you and his father could get him working to stay clean of recreational drugs, that would give his body a better chance to heal. It would probably require a formal program (like AA), and a lot of time and effort.

But the mild psychotic symptoms and the lack of holding a job or forming a career are both characteristic of heavy marijuana/THC use.

“Marijuana, and all the THC concentrates now available from it, are particularly bad for borderline psychotics. They make you go off into a fantasy world of how experimental vaccines are good for you.”
