Big Pharma and Big Tobacco are helping market high-potency, psychosis-inducing THC products as your mother’s ‘medical marijuana’
{Dr. Libby Stuyt], a recently retired addiction psychiatrist in Pueblo, Colorado, treated patients with severe drug dependency. Typically, that meant alcohol, heroin, and methamphetamines. But about five years ago, she began to see something new.
“I started seeing people with the worst psychosis symptoms that I have ever seen,” she told me. “And the worst delusions I have ever seen.”
These cases were even more acute than what she’d seen from psychotic patients on meth. Some of the delusions were accompanied by “severe violence.” But these patients were coming up positive only for cannabis. Stuyt wasn’t alone: Health care professionals throughout Colorado and all over the country were seeing similar episodes.
Ben Cort, who runs an addiction recovery center in Steamboat Springs, Colorado, watched a young man jump up on the table in the emergency department and strip naked, claiming he was the God of thunder and threatening to kill everyone in the room, including two police officers. A collegiate athlete Cort worked with also had a psychotic episode and was shot five times by the police with a beanbag gun before he was subdued. In Los Angeles County, Blue Stohr, a psychiatric social worker, had a patient who climbed a 700-foot crane and considered jumping off of it, not because he was suicidal but because he thought he was in a computer simulation, like The Matrix.
Those patients, too, were high only on cannabis.

I’m not qualified to comment on the issue of psychosis.
And maybe I’m just a grumpy old guy.
But lately I see a lot of people struggling to buy things in stores. How do I push this cart? Do they keep the meat in the produce section? Do I put things on the conveyor belt? How does my credit card fit in this machine? How does money work? What? Who? I don’t know?
I’m assuming that at least some of these fools are using cannabis.
The left has been pushing cannabis for at least 60 years, they want people to leave the running of the world to them, so welfare, pot, and all the sex distractions they can smother the population’s thinking with, the better for them.
Close to true and I grow Weed. You can overuse it.
FDD/USDA regulations on potency is the next logical step.
Because meth clears out of the body more quickly.
Haha! 👍
Super Weed,
Yup.
Thumbs up!
How many fingers am I holding up?
Perfecto
That’s one vice I have steered clear of in my life.
This stuff isn’t your 70s sinsemilla, let alone Mexican.
Cami is induced psychosis is not something new, however in the past it generally too years and years of high use to happen… now that they have bred higher abs more potent Mary Jane it happens much sooner.
Have a friend who’s daughter is now completely psychotic due to drug use, primarily weed….
So sad to watch all the potential thrown away…
Heard it before.
