Rising tide of pot-crazed lunatics

[subsonic]

Can't escape the stench of weed in New York? Bad news, all those pot-smokers are going to be psychotic, unhinged schizophrenics in a few years.

The link between weed, hallucinogens in general, and schizophrenia has long been known, but a new study shows just how bad it is:

He is 91 and doing just fine.

So that screams BS, and thankfully, had you bothered to read it, you'd see that it was.

"As schizophrenic diagnosis increases so does pot usage."

 

[Arnie-Man]

The problem I have with this "Study" is Mary Jane is still a Scedule 1 Drug on the federal level which means it can not be studied so theirs that. Wear was this study done not in the US ????????

From 2004-2007 Cage was on a role and therefore drownings went up. Right?

If there is such a thing.

"A new study" should be viewed with the same contempt as the word "case" was during the scamdemic.

Anyone can study anything any way they can imagine - it's probably still bullshit.

Okay, I love me some illiterate hillbillies, but you are wrong on all counts. Pot is studied plenty in the USA and obviously the federal government doesn't give a shit about pot anymore.

This study was done in Denmark using their national healthcare records, and they had full access to comprehensive records on history of pot use and schizophrenia diagnosis. It's very old news that people predisposed to schizophrenia are very likely to have it triggered by smoking pot, especially a lot of it and especially early in life, and that it can be triggered in people who would never get it otherwise. Unless you have a family history you don't know if you might be predisposed.

What this study contributed is quantifying how much worse the risk is for men compared to women.

If you have schizo or bipolar family members within a couple of degrees then smoking weed is an incredibly stupid thing to do. Not that it's smart for anyone.

Oh great Willie Nelson smokes pot and he's fine! Let me guess, your grandad smoked three packs a day and never got lung cancer, so smoke away! Have the wifey smoke while she's pregnant and pushing the stroller too, that'll own the libs!

Darth, I know you're a pothead, and therefore a prohibited person who shouldn't have any firearms, but this isn't that kind of correlation. Drug use, weed in particular, has a long-established relationship with schizophrenic breaks.

All you have to do to see the harm of pot is open your eyes to what it's doing to our communities. Losers!

 

[Acer-m14]

years ago there was like 7 people getting govt grown weed ..

in the USA

it helped them

 

[Modean]

Someone else who thought the film Reefer Madness was a documentary…

Fabricated memories is a sign of schizophrenia.

 

[Bustedknees]

Everything I pick up has a disclaimer that it will cause cancer if I live in California. If someone has a point to prove they can also gear a study to prove it.

[Criticalt]

But people who are predisposed to schizophrenia can have their disease triggered by many thousands of things........smells, sounds, medications, injuries, memories, time, illness.....an endless list really.
So, how can anyone PROVE the cause of their break was due to pot?
I have known a LOT of weed smokers in my life....a LOT.
None that I know of have had a mental break.
Maybe hunger and loss of motivation at times, but no schizophrenic breaks.
But, I know a couple non pot smokers who have had schitzo issues.
With so many triggers of schizophrenia episodes, it is a loooooong stretch to say the weed caused it........in my opinion.

Absolutely!
87% of statistics are wrong 62% of the time.

The other 50% is wrong half the time

Golly, homeless, but working, 300 days of the year doing just fine?

Um, roll and if he was from NY he'd be on a bagel.

My Grampop knew a nasty old German guy what was allergic to poison ivy, so he ate the shit.
Poof, no more allergy, after he almost died.

 

[Zerex]

Pot is a hallucinegin......fully 10% of the population cannot use pot without severe reactions like severe intoxication,scizophrenia and suicidal actions....................the other 90% can use it, but can with chronic use, suffer paranoia, short fuses, and attention spans, inability to keep a job for long, and just want to mellow out and listen to tunes.

Munchies?

Adolescents using it @ the THC levels of today, may have serious trouble achieving success in school, and long term consequences, such as drop out rates, are noted in many. Many will have to work for the DHS/CIA/FBI in the long run, at a desk job.

Like smoking, it is its own punishment.

 

[Willyone]

What I believe.... Legalizing weed is just part of the mix of the master plan. Get people stupid and dependent, and keep them that way, and they'll be happy serbs, easier to control.

 

[Bigfoot]

There are some people who are of the opinion that weed is bad for the body and mind.
And they are probably correct to some degree.

But those same people will gladly get the clot shot, over and over... Doh!

 

[Bigfoot]

 

[Bigfoot]

Meh, I think I'll grab a beer and watch the documentary Reefer Madness.

 

[Criticalt]

So how many people think that weed is dangerous to the body and mind?

But will gladly get the clot shot, over and over.

No weed and no jabs.
But im a bad one to ask.......
I do not use tobacco, I dont drink, I dont use caffeine, no illicit drugs....
Im a LOT of fun.
However, growing up in the country, I smoked a LOT of weed.
I then graduated Penn State and Cornell University with a "nearly" 4.0 grade average.
And made it through Army BT and a couple military schools.
No schizophrenia, no munchies and no other ill affects.
And none of the many weed smokers I know and have known have not suffered schizophrenia.

To be completely honest, I do occasionally smoke a cigar and a pipe.

C'mon man, you're not going along with the fear tactics.

None of the many weed smokers that I know don't suffer from schizophrenia either.

Sounds to me like living in Cali. is the root problem!

I think I caught a contact buzz this morning while bringing a customer's truck into the shop. LOL

The thing is, this guy has money and is squared away. Definitely not a loser.
Yeah, I know, blah blah blah... LOL

If someone is going to be successful in life. Smoking weed isn't going to change that.
If someone is going to be a loser in life. They would probably be a loser weed or no weed.
