This whole thing is such bullshit!Mental illness can be brought on by stress(coincidentally relieved by weed!),alcohol,bereavement etc!I'm sick of papers in the UK linking dope smoking to mental problems, at worst it can act as a catalyst to something you are already predisposed to getting.I remember this lovely piece in the Daily Mail about a teenager who murdered his girlfriend, it had great anecdotal info from a "friend" of the murderer stating he was smoking hundreds of joints a week.I'd love to know how a 15yr old could afford to do that and for his parents not to realise. It also got in the "he listened to Marilyn Manson" crap as well. Scurrilous, scaremongering journalism that people believe cos its written down. Thats all it is fuckin words printed on a page, would they believe something I'd written and printed off?No, whole thing is bogus!
