I certainly have facts that pot does indeed CAUSE schizophrenic reactions on users in some cases.

It’s best for everyone to AVOID pot.

It may indeed cause this kind of reaction. It has, with clinical studies and my personal experience.

Hey, if you wanna say it’s ok to use it and continue to use it, what can I do. Don’t you dare say that I’m lying though.

... and my personal experience.

'Nuff said. You're a schizo. You should try pot. I understand it helps...

"Despite previous media claims to the contrary, researchers concluded: “Although the onset of cannabis use disorder preceded the onset of illness in most patients, our findings suggest that age at onset of psychosis was not associated with cannabis use disorders. Previous studies implicating cannabis use disorders in schizophrenia may need to more comprehensively assess the relationship between cannabis use disorders and schizophrenia, and take into account the additional variables that we found associated with cannabis use disorders.” ...

... Both study’s findings are in line with previous (though virtually unreported) research indicating that marijuana is unlikely to instigate incidences of schizophrenia in the general population, that cannabis use among patients with the disease is associated with higher cognitive function, and that at least some schizophrenics find subjective relief from symptoms of the illness by using pot. Nonetheless, odds are the nobody from the mainstream media will be champing at the bit to report on them. -
