This is certainly true. There are some people who should never indulge. I well remember the case of my best college friend's brother, who smoked for about six months and then went off the deep end. He seemed pretty normal up until then, but there are subtle signs of a pre-schizophrenic personality.
It's hard to predict. I would say, when in doubt, don't. But these guys never listen to me...

Many drugs can induce illnesses such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder to manifest themselves.

Based on my own experience, that's everyone. I was one of the first in my highschool to try it & the first to stop. After the first few experiences, which were very pleasant, being stoned turned into horrific, paranoid self-persecution. I recall being extremely sensitive to people's moods, also frightening.
Anybody have a similar experience? The paranoia I experienced then makes me wonder if these researchers aren't onto something.
Someone told me the stuff kids now smoke is 10 times the potency of what we were on. Scary.
