Cannabis psychosis.. Anybody here have it?

[birdgirl73]

I think that was a very important question the earlier poster (I can't remember your screen name!) raised about whether or not the culprit may not be Accutane. The psychosis reaction to that drug has been well reported, particularly in young men. That really is an important thing to relate to your doctor.

Accutane is a strong and scary drug. Far scarier than grass, I feel. And far more likely to be what's causing those symptoms you're having, in my opinion.

I just smoke weed guys. What is Accutane? Personally, I think I just think to much and need to chill out, as I already said in my previous statements.

Nope, no problems as far as psyhcosis.

So I guess there isnt anything wrong with smoking every once in awhile then..

Definitely not. Every once in a while is safe for everyone. I've, yet, to see the studies done on eight year-old tokers ( :stoned: :stoned: :stoned: :stoned: :stoned: :stoned: ).

Teen indulgence, or, just, using too much, has been shown, in test subjects (narrowed down, to be perfect biological samples), to lower IQ.

So, in essence, Pot can make you stupid. Too much, too young. But, light use has the possibility to turn brilliance into an enhanced magnificence. :smokin:

Im glad smoking once in awhile wont do you any harm. I got a question tho. In cannabis there are so many chemicals that can be harmful to the body. But what if you smoke from a vaporizer (I like volcano ) Because it is filtering out all those bad and harsh chemicals and only leaving you with the THC, do you think that could be less harmful to the brain, especially for those that can develop schizo (genetically)

Quote:
On peer review all the claims in these "reports" have been refuted.
For a start the claim that cannabis is "five times more carcinogenic than
tobacco" has been shown to be from incorrect data. the original study
(Berkley carcinogenic tar) use the leaves of the two plants and as everyone
knows it is not the leaves of the cannabis plant that is used. And the study
said "tar" the propagandists turned it into "carcinogen". Cannabis tars have
very few carcinogens compared to tobacco. In fact cannabis has cured
cancers.

And it will, also, filter out active cannabinoids (good ones). Or, at least, deplete them.

Awesome!

I never believed that one joint was like smoking 5 cigerattes. I've laughed most of the time when I heard about that.

But what you were saying had to do with the lungs, I was asking about the brain and how it could be affected.....

[beachguy in thongs]

Affected by what?

Did you ever read these studies?

Good looking :thumbsup:

Very good articles. Like I said before, I smoke every now and then, I plan to smoke next week or the week after. Take care. :rasta:

But if anyone has an interest in meditational techniques that will help you get back a broader high and mental exploration of altered states, I hope this will be the book for you.

This sounds kinda interesting. What do you mean broader high? Is this some wierd breathing shit to make you take in less air and it increases the effects of the dope that way? Any chanting or wearing of orange?
