Just want to put the issue out there. I'm interested in other peoples experiences of smoking weed and becoming psychotic?
There are many people who do use drugs and weed and don't have psychosis BUT is there a connection between the smoking of pot (usually Skunk as its 20x stronger than just pot) and people having psychotic episodes. Have other people smoked and had mad episodes and psychosis? Have people over tiime continued smoking and develped SZ or was SZ latent and weed activated it?
What do people think about the legalization debate? Weed being cat. B drug?
Do people sTill smoke? WhaT efFects does it have now?
I mySelf started smoking twenty years ago and continued as a heavy dope head for 10 years after my first psychotic episode. If I had stopped after my 1st episode would I have recovered or not? That question haunts me as I have developed chronic SZ.
But my mum said I was weird as a kid!! So I just don't know the answers to these questions. What I do know is there are millions of people that use weed and DON'T have psychosis - is it just a very small %?
Any thoughts very welcome
