  1. This nation drugs most of its people and they are glad to do it
    Most ppl are out of it on Xanax anti depresents, sleep meds and pain meds.
    But weed it the problem
    This country and its media are a Joke

  2. I always have them, its like my eyes move and focus on objects in a specific way, and i always think that if i dont get them correctly, imma die or smth, but the thing is is that i remember, its like everything had happened before, deja vu basically.

  3. Cannabis is meant for 21 plus who are these “Teenagers” when it’s specifically meant for adults?how about stop thinking about cannabis until your 21 and your brain has fully developed.The problem is the youth trying to outgrow in experience faster to keep up with social media you have no one but yourself to blame.I hate when people want to blame the world and don’t look at the source of the problem,Thyself and the pursuit of high chasing.Its one thing eating shrooms and then not having the same relation with Cannabis again and it’s another when your young af trying to be cool and dab,like I had to graduate from Smoking the Cheba to dab the Golden Oil of the Plant spirits,respect the plant!

  4. Can you please clarify the difference between violent psychosis and marijuana psychosis because there is literally no studies I have a linked marijuana induced psychosis too violent psychosis. Yes, there is such thing as marijuana induced psychosis, but there’s no studies or evidence that suggest that they have turned into a violent person capable of murder.

    Until recently, where a mentally unstable woman looking for any reason to blame her actions on something else
    They quickly blame it on marijuana induced psychosis even though there’s literally no scientific or case evidence of marijuana causing violence. There’s tons of fake evidence that was created in the 60s to demonize marijuana.

    But if marijuana induced psychosis was actually dangerous wouldn’t they have discovered it in the 60s 70s and 80s when they were looking for a reason to demonize marijuana when they were looking for a reason to tell everybody to stop smoking it

    I don’t buy it for one second that marijuana and do a psychosis is a thing I think they are literally just using it as an excuse based on previous psychosis because if someone is suffering from psychosis and smokes weed did they have a marijuana psychosis episode or did they have a psychosis episode Because that’s the problem all it takes is to have a little bit of weed in your system and suddenly you go from a psychotic episode to a marijuana and do psychotic episode instead of it being simply because you are psychotic it is because you smoke weed

    Look at that one case recently, real woman got away with murder because she smoked weed
    She had all the telltale signs of a mentally disturbed psychotic person
    So why are we believing the fact that she had a psychotic episode on marijuana? Even though she had recorded evidence of psychotic episodes not on marijuana maybe instead of marijuana amplifying her psychotic episode just she had a psychotic episode in because there was marijuana in the area she blamed it on the dead guy.

    Because we all know how officers treat females when they’re being investigated, they give them leading questions and give them the answers. I bet when she was in Terra gated they probably ask her. Did he have any drugs around marijuana? Did he force you to smoke marijuana and as soon as they said, did he force you she’s like yes yes they did because when police investigate women for crimes, they treat them like a victim.
    They look for a reason to prove them innocent
    Every single time just look at how they treat females when they know they’ve committed the crime versus when they aren’t sure
    Because if they’re not sure, they treat them with kindness and respect, and give them the leading questions to help prove their innocence
    But if it’s a guy, they hound him interrogate him they give him leading questions to make it seem like he’s going to self incriminate himself. They ask him questions that can be interpreted as self incrimination.

  5. There has been increase three events of psychotic episodes caused by marijuana, but not a single one of those actual psychotic episodes ended up in somebody losing their live marijuana and your psychosis does not cause you murder

  6. I don't have schizophrenia/psychosis but the last few times ive smoked weed ive had a strange dissociation with brain fog and feeling of being flat, is that psychosis symptoms or early warning signs of psychosis?

  7. Ive seen these psychotic episodes in my friends, its random and scared me. I highly encourage people to study it thoroughly and seek clearer ways to relax and produce healthy serotonin w/o negative effects, exercise, diet, hobbies that make you happy, etc. God helped me with my mental health and anxiety while become more sober.

  8. It's more like they're allergic to it but keep taking it anyway and then say everyone don't take this thing I'm even though I'm the only one allergic to it and keep having psychotic effects 😂😅

  9. It doesn't matter what strain – it can be plain old bud. My sister became full blown schizophrenic after smoking loads of joints and bowls in college in the '90s. It's been 30 years and only clozapine treats it. I smoked a bit in 2001 – regular flower (like an idiot, I'm younger than her) – and one time had a psychotic break. I have bipolar 2. I stay away from that stuff. Terrified. It's bad for anyone with a family history of schizophrenia, bipolar, autism – these are all related to schizophrenia. If it's legal it should come with a black box warning – known to cause psychosis and schizophrenia. Our grandfather had it, but there's no guarantee my sis would have gotten it if she hadn't smoked tons of weed. Psychiatrists have known for over 30 years that THC can induce psychosis and schizophrenia. The concentrated stuff means it can do so far faster and with far less use – even just one episode. Smoking weed is Russian Roulette.

  10. When you actually look up the definition of psychotic episodes and what can cause them you will notice so does high sugary drinks and missing your daily cup of coffee in the morning.

  11. Reading these comments, if you don’t have the tolerance to take a dab. Use your brain and don’t Simple as that. You are just making cannabis look bad, once again.

  12. Yea, well what do they say about alcohol? Give me a break. I never met anyone who smoked a joint and wanted to beat their wife up, that's alcohol. I wonder how many of these so called "experts ever smoked pot" ? My guess big, fat zero on that one.
    So how does one become an expert if they have never smoked pot? Give me a break conservatives.

  13. I've had cannabis induced psychosis at least 6 times that have landed me in the mental hospital. Never again. I finally had my epiphany and realized that it is definitely the weed that has caused this destruction in my life. I am prescribed Adderall for ADHD and this combined with weed is the worst mix of drugs ever. Please, I beg you, do not do this as you will have psychosis and it will eventually ruin your life.

  14. I've been in discussions with a range of experts, including chemists and psychiatrists, and they've opened my eyes to a distinct drug that's been sidelined from research, not for medical reasons but possibly due to political influences. This drug eludes traditional classifications like stimulants, depressants, or hallucinogens. Its effects, causing a profound sense of unreality, are unique and potentially extremely dangerous. It's important to note that this drug doesn't discriminate , even individuals with robust mental health can fall prey to its adverse and unpredictable effects. Those with pre-existing mental predispositions are at an even greater risk. The banning of this substance, which I believe was heavily influenced by political corruption during Nixon's era, may have obscured its potential for legal and medical use. Understanding this drug requires a multifaceted approach, one that acknowledges its wide-ranging potency and the varied susceptibilities of different individuals, also I've come to understand that handling the effects of this particular drug demands an exceptionally strong psyche and robust mental resilience. Even for those who might possess these qualities, I would still strongly advise against its use,.Amidst a global debate, there's growing concern over reversing the legalization of this drug due to its alarming association with psychiatric disorders. Reports indicate an increase in psychosis cases and a surge,up to eight times,in the incidence of bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and various other psychiatric illnesses. Particularly concerning is the drug's impact on individuals who belong to groups with previously unknown predispositions to these conditions. This trend highlights the drug's potential to unearth latent psychiatric vulnerabilities, even in those who might have been considered at low risk. Such findings are fueling arguments against its legality, as the risks seem to overshadow any perceived benefits. The debate is complex, encompassing not just the drug's direct effects, but also broader public health implications and ethical considerations around drug policy and mental health.

  15. This really isn’t the problem with concentrated weed, it’s more addictive than anything else. We distilled opium and made heroin, we distilled alcohol and made vodka now we’re doing the same with cannabis causing the same cycle to weaken the population

  16. Turn to CNBC for stock market reports, not bogus stories about pot. 47 years ago in college I began a personal case study that has involved hundreds of individuals and over 20,000 joints, countless bong hits and packed pipes, and not a once did anybody have any "episodes". Today I buy my papers by the case and the 7 dispensaries within a mile or two offer oh-zees of 31% for $125 incl taxes on discount day. I'm retired, healthy, and smoke so much pot, the Zig-Zag man has a tattoo of ME on his arm!

  17. Most of this is misinformation get your weed from a recreational or medical dispensary that are certified but no yall are smoking prolly spice or laced weed or the synthetic thc so stop playing an disrespecting the name of weed as if its worse than cigs or alcohol like this is ridiculous people are mindless when it comes to this stuff
