Look. I was the poster child for pot in 1973. I haven’t smoked it in decades, but what is available now is a LOT more potent. My knee-jerk reaction to this psychosis talk was “more reefer madness,” until I read Alex Berenson’s Tell Your Children. Who can really say how damaging it is after heavy, long-term use?
You’re not going to become a mindless zombie from smoking marijuana once or even occasionally. I once smoked and drank my brains out 32 years ago. I don’t live that way any more. 32 years later I’m doing fine(except for high blood pressure).
Honestly some of the bs abut ‘’the evil weed’’ is like a resurrected Harry J. Anslinger.
Canabanoid psychosis can occur with one use.
You actually have no idea how years of alcohol abuse has damaged your brain.
Listen pal. I don’t know where you get this bullshit about marijuana affecting you after smoking it once. You need to smoke it enough to build up a level of THC in your system.
And as far as my cognitive abilities, after thirty two years of being sober I know what time it is, if you know what I mean.
I’m not going to engage in a spitting contest with you over this.
Have a nice life.
The potency has gone from 4% back 40 years ago to an average of 15% now. The extracts and edibles, can range from an average of 50% all the way up to 90% THC.
So yeah, single use could result in psychosis, especially when morons don’t understand ratios or basic kitchen measurements when making their homemade gummies.
That's because it's being legalized in more states. Duh. Also, it's being prescribed to more patients with PTSD, glaucoma and other issues, whether you like it or not.
This article is total horseshit.
Equating weed with opioids?! Are you freaking kidding me?!
Nailed it.
Sorry but no. You don’t get high off of marijuana from the first time you smoke it. You have to smoke quite a bit to build up a level of THC in your system.
Can the legal pot growers get hit with the same lawsuits that the oxy.manufactorsvdid for the damage it has done? Including the states that licenced these drug dispensaries?
Nobody said smoking. The term used was “first use” which these days is just as likely to be edibles or dabs of very high potency. There are many unintentional poisonings of kids and pets these days.
Do a little research as I just did and you’ll discover that illegal marijuana is far more potent than the legal stuff.
It’s still the edibles causing the most problems, particularly the homemade ones.
There are a lot morons out there that can’t measure and do not understand ratios. Same as the meth heads burning down trailers.

More than just the left....but the left is using any distraction...our cultures do not supply any durable answers to the cursed earth....but leftism is a historical big time failure...and a drug addled population( with social approval) is an easily controlled population..
There are regions of the world that have used cannabis for thousands of years, and they look like it, and the people act like it.
Democrats want voters hallucinating during elections as they will vote for democrats. In other years they can be easily manipulated as they cannot hold down a steady job and will become dependent on the democrat handouts.
No kidding!
“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.”

With or without pot.
