Marijuana and mental illness
I knew a guy who had older brothers, this guy was tall, and he had a father who always had his sons in basketball (and baseball). All the brothers were tall. His name was Jeff. He did not smoke weed. He had a promising life as a basketball player, he was one of our city's best.
No weed, he shot himself in the head, in his room, when he was a junior in high school.
The whole family would be so different had marijuana been a factor in the American Family Way of Life. The stress would not have caused him to shoot himself in the head. I remember being at his house and seeing his father, whom I've known since I was little, Jeff was my age. Then a year after, his father had set-up a city-wide memorial basketball tournament and, after the games one Saturday, a bunch of us went back to his house. He had a keg in the garage for everyone.
At this point, I realized that marijuana was the last thing that Mr. Johnson would have wanted his son, Jeff, to do. Maybe, he should have advised it.beachguy in thongs Reviewed by beachguy in thongs on . Marijuana and mental illness I love it when these government and media types say that 'smoking marijuana causes schizophrenia, suicidal tendancies, etc etc' BUT have they ever thought of this - the most common form of cannabis on out streets today is still (sadly) the humble block of hashish called 'soap'. As I'm sure everyone is aware, this is adulterated with toxins and chemicals that 99.9% of people would'nt even dream of consuming! This is frequently consumed by teens, thinking that its 'cool' and smoking herb makes Rating: 5
