Have there been any studies on what the use of marijuana by pregnant females has on the brains of their developing embryos?

Just curious - have they also looked into whether these propensities may be there before and may be a reason why one ends up indulging regularly?

Or are they just assuming the pot causes them and the issues weren’t germane to the high use of pot....

Not saying they’re wrong, just saying the study ain’t necessarily 100% valid.

Pot is the only thing I’ve found that relieves my TMJ issues that were caused by an old basketball injury.

Or I could go around all day with discomfort in my jaw and feeling like I have to yawn all the time.

In a mid sized city in Iowa I see people smoking weed as they walk to the elementary school to pick up their kids.

I’m a non-drinker, and do not use MJ, or psychoactive substances in general, so have no personal experience...It’s all observational and admittedly unscientific ...More of question really...

I question if ill effects might not be more dose and frequency dependent, and heavy frequent consumers of cannabis may aggravate psychosis in the brains of users already predisposed to the disorder?

Just as there are occasional alcohol users who suffer no ill effects and remain perfectly functional, I suspect occasional cannabis users can do the same...

Tequila will cause psychotic episodes, especially the heap stuff.

“I was a pretty good investigative reporter, because I often saw the way companies would deceive, especially when there’s money on the line,” he said. “I mention that because I think this story of cannabis legalization is a story of deception, but it’s also sort of self-deception.

Absolutely and from day 1. The nose of the camel was "medical" marijuana. It was 100% put on ballots across the country by pro-legalization forces. They cared NOTHING for the sick but this was the only way they could get legalized marijuana. Amazingly their propaganda campaign was effective. They convinced enough people that SMOKING pot was healthy! Unbelievable! And today we are nearing the end game of this deception. Full scale legalization of EVERY type of drug. This is ALL designed to destroy American culture and society. LOOK at EVERY city where decriminalization and/or non-enforcement of drugs laws happen. Pure cesspools eventually.

Trump is all for medical marijuana and letting the states decide on legalization => https://youtube.com/watch?v=ZOpgIDMV07o

Trump has done more to facilitate marijuana in the US than all of FR combined and more than any president since FDR effectively criminalized it at the federal level.

Now let’s see if the big-government nanny-staters have the nerve to snark on President Trump.

The Lancet Psychiatry journal

Does it seem odd to anyone else that the
journal of Psychiatry is called the Lancet?
