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.

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....

really i found a recent study that if you eat cheese all day long you'll turn into a cow... oh wait that's made up too....

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.

i really high right now and reading the thread freaks me out

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....

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.
