For sure. And you could say depression is just deep thought. The problem is that non of this stuff is recognised for what it is. So there is no information or guidance available to the people that must travel these paths.

I'm fond of saying I don't believe in mental illness, but in one sense, the reaction one would have to deep thoughts about a world so profoundly sick is really the definition of mental illness, isnt it? And from the perspective of personal, individual interest, we who dwell on such things to our detriment really are crazy.

Just saying. That's why the language sticks. It all depends on your values.

High usage of Sativa dominant or pure landrace Sativa's has been known to cause Schizophrenia, paranoia, etc. The upside is the hallucinogenic properties are greater than an Indica dominant strain. Indica is the way to go if you want to avoid/minimize this...possibility...more relaxing...good for pain relief IMO....

Go back to GLP, shill.

Everyone here knows who you are, and there are no people left who think cannabis is negative.

Tell your handlers that it's not working anymore.

my opinion: they all contribute to a sick society and a sick society increases mental illness.

I pretty much agree with this statement, but I think that Schizophrenia falls into a special category of diagnoses that are actually not mental illnesses at all. Schizophrenia has been known for many millennia as shamanism, and those who had it were a blessing to the tribe because they interacted with the spirit world, and used those interactions to keep evil at bay and heal the sick.

Imagine toking up in your dorm room one day, and all the sudden you realize the planet is swimming in demons, and they're all looking for YOU. the demons tell their human minions, who then proceed to stalk and harrass you with bizarre interactions and energy weapons. You don't understand what's going on, but when you try to put into words, somebody suggests you go see a counselor. You go to the nice counselor, he tells you its all in your head, and all you have to do is take these drugs that shut off a certain part of your brain.

The part that makes you 'see' things.

Then the harrassment stops. Unless you stop taking your medication... they know, because they're watching you.

Alcohol is way more dangerous than cannabis, but authorities don't look at that as it's taxed and holy and all that. Usually no talk about alcohol psychosis, but much talk about the devilish cannabis smoke that people should lay off and start drinking holy booze, sometimes it's like that drunk people get possessed in the way they act, never seen that with cannabis. Sure it can open doors that best stay closed, like alcohol, but to blame it? I think 'Government and schizophrenia' is a better title in that regard.

And besides that politics made it paramount to get everything negative surrounding cannabis in the open, while stomping down everything positive, same old boring story. More and more doctors are looking into the treatment capabilities if it comes to schizophrenia and autism with certain strains of cannabis, even helping people kick off alcohol and other hard drugs with the help of cannabis.

If alcohol would do that it would be frontpage news, but if it comes to cannabis it's just not negative enough. You hear more about cannabis causing schizophrenia than treating it, while the latter is more realistic but not to politics.

Increased levels of cannabis use by the general public is not associated with proportionally rising incidences of schizophrenia or other psychotic disorders.

Schizophrenia and Paranoia and Manic Depressive Disorder and Chronic Depression are all diseases that can be passed from generation to generation as they are carried in DNA. Ironically, a father can not pass any of the diseases to his son since they are carried on the missing leg of the Y chromosome. A mother can pass it to her son or daughter.

There has been a marked increase in these mental disorders in countries with elevated Background Radiation, such as the United States which now has a Background Radiation level twice that of Australia. We all know that Radiation strikes cause DNA damage and thus new cases of mental illness.

All of the mass murders in the United States have been committed by people who have mental illnesses. I have seen several newspaper articles that point out the the murderers frequently have THC in their system when they commit the horrible acts that they have been guilty of.

The correlation? Simple, most mentally ill people try to self medicate. Some use Alcohol and some use Cannabis (Marijuana) because both elevate their moods from the depths of depression.

When I drink alcohol, I feel slowed down, but when depressed people drink they have a sense of elation that I do not experience. Hence many depressed people become alcoholics. Those people who do not like the effects of alcohol (hangovers) switch to Cannabis because you do not get a hangover from pot. I have never seen Cannabis cause anybody to have Schizophrenic mental illness, but I have seen many Schizophrenic people smoke pot.

then why mention it, and where is link to study...
