So, here's the link for your perusal...

Still, if what they say is correct, then surely we would be living in a society full of mentally deranged, schitzophrenics...

...pity they aren't as concerned about the health issues connected with cigarettes and alcohol, as they seem to be about a herb that has been used by millions of people for thousands of years, with no documented evidence that supports their claims.

sorry bud but all my years as a mental health pro. I've never heard off anyone suffering mental health problems through tobacco...respiratory. cancer..ect....the only mental health I have seen concerning alcohol is Korsakoff's syndrome its a brain disorder that is usually associated with heavy drinking over a long period. Although it is not strictly speaking a dementia, people with the condition experience loss of short term memory.
