I often see members on here stating that weed doesn't physically harm the brain (which is true) as if that means it won't harm your psyche.

Psychosis: "A severe mental disorder, with or without organic damage, characterized by derangement of personality and loss of contact with reality and causing deterioration of normal social functioning."

Weed can and will cause that. It isn't harmless.

haha... this is great. OK, first of all you claim that it "can and WILL cause psychosis" Wrong and wrong. Close, but wrong. See, to say that it will CAUSE psychosis is where you failed at making a valid point. It is true that there are individuals who have a genetic or otherwise linked pre-disposition to psychosis that can be brought on earlier by marijuana usage. But to say that it causes the psychosis by itself is categorically incorrect.
Now that that's covered, I have to question your motives and intentions for posting this thread. Do you seek to convert smokers or warn us of the imminent doom from smoking? Wouldn't your time be better spent volunteering for truth.com or AA, or some other organization that seeks to prevent people from using/abusing HARMFUL substances? Or are you simply looking for attention....

Yeah I dunno, but the way you sounded zalami, it's like your out to disprove all us bottom-feeding tokers. I mean it's cool that you're *trying* to look out for us, but I think most of us can handle it.

Throw out that govt. brochure and light one up with us zombies.

Yeah, and so can any traumatic experience in life. What would you suggest, suicide?

you should read all of what ever you read then and not just the title man. And if your gana say somthing dumb like that then you should put a link to where you got it from. Some people are geneticly fucked and weather or not they smoke weed they will end up with psycosis. Same with weed as a gateway drug, do you really think that if marijuana didnt exist people wouldnt try heroin or anything anyway? Marijuana if anything delays the use of other drugs.

i actually felt a weird state of psychosis 1-2 days after i had a panic attack from smoking weed, but it has gone away and hasn't happened since

Yeah i smoked down a friend of mine and she flipped to shit and started having a panic attack once. Luckly my friend's mother knew what to do and we didn't have to go to the hospital.

Reality sucks and I'm already functioning abnormaly in society, I'm a social misfit. So I'll start smoking even more and leave reality and society in the dust...armed with knowledge!:rasta: :dance: Do a little dance

It would help if you first presented evidence, as to what would be considered a severe mental disorder, before expecting your arguement to be considered by even the most naive audience.

(got this off a recent study..spotlighted by panorama(i think))
its not deffinet, its actualy a 1/4 chance that you will develope psycosis later in life if you smoke heavily during your teens...irrevalent of wether you've stopped or not...then theres also a 1/10 chance of the developement of skitz (tho its higher if its in your family) ...........
its fucking stupid tho...some people think that weed is completely harmless
....anything that fucks with your head IS fucking with your head....

notice how i put "will" in CAPITAL LETTERS, just because you smoke it doesnt mean your inevitably going get that condition, theres a chance you might die today from a car accident when you get into a car...that doesnt mean you will.

you have to watch how people phrase things, the english language is notorious for having different meanings and play on words.

your a fucking asshole, burn guy.

All the guy was trying to say that it is incorrect that weed is 100% Harmless,

shit.. im in love with the stuff and i still know it aint all roses and fuckin sunny skies,

weed is a gateway drug, believe it or not.. once you experice weed, if it IS your first high, then you wonder.. If weed is so simple, i wonder what MDMA is like.. I WONDER WHAT Heroin is like..

Fuck people with smartass, trying to act intelligent, bullshit, attention grabbing post.
