Legalizing marijuana

How can anybody promote mental illness? Is it ignorance or pure indifference that make people willingly ingest a plant that induces madness?

Fun fact: the CB1 receptor that is responsible for the feeling of being high also emulates schizophrenia.

>Cannabinoid intoxication can provoke toxic psychoses or symptoms similar to the positive symptoms of schizophrenia
>cannabis seems to provoke an amotivational syndrome similar to the negative symptoms of schizophrenia
>In humans, mounting evidence shows that CB1 receptor densities are altered in schizophrenia

>Our finding of increased CB1R binding in paranoid SCZ could reflect a greater involvement of the endocannabinoid system in the DLPFC in this subtype of patients with SCZ as may be suggested by their more marked positive thought disorders and delusional symptoms.

>We provide evidence that regular cannabis use is associated with gray matter volume reduction in the medial temporal cortex, temporal pole, parahippocampal gyrus, insula, and orbitofrontal cortex; these regions are rich in cannabinoid CB1 receptors and functionally associated with motivational, emotional, and affective processing.

>The strongest evidence that cannabis use is a contributory cause of schizophrenia comes from longitudinal studies of large representative samples of the population who have been followed over time to see if cannabis users are at higher risk of developing schizophrenia.
>15-year prospective investigation of cannabis use and schizophrenia in 50,465 Swedish conscripts. The study found that those who had tried cannabis by age 18 were 2.4 times more likely to be diagnosed with schizophrenia than those who had not 16 and the risk of this diagnosis increased with the frequency of cannabis use.
>27-year follow-up of the Swedish cohort that also found a dose-response relationship between frequency of cannabis use at baseline and risk of schizophrenia during the follow-up. The relationship between cannabis use and schizophrenia persisted when the authors statistically controlled for the effects of other drug use and other potential confounding factors, including a history of psychiatric symptoms at baseline.
>supported in a three-year longitudinal study of the relationship between self-reported cannabis use and psychosis in a community sample of 4,848 people in the Netherlands
>These findings have been replicated in one German and two New Zealand cohort studies.

>A NIDA-funded brain imaging study has shown that regular users of marijuana have less gray matter than nonusers of the drugin the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), a brain region that contributes to impulse control, decision-making, and learning. Such a deficit could make it more difficult to change counterproductive behaviors, including drug use.

Oh look, it's this thread again. Fuck you, retard.

>lol only pussies develop a panic disorder

Why do I feel like the person who made this image couldn't handle their weed and now they're butt mad?

safer than alcohol, sugar, and caffeine. These 3 kill MILLIONS of people per yer. Marijuana=zero.
you should try some, OP. it may settle your autismo anxiety and rage

its an anti weed autistic who clings to the same 4 studies that prove the negative effects of weed

he makes these threads every week or so with the same links

lol its this retard thread again, that guy has nothing better in his life than spam this bullshit

hes on Jow Forums so no

>safer than alcohol, sugar, and caffeine.
Lawl.

weed is an extremely overrated desu, its alright when your life's in order but can be hell if your life's all fucked because it make you more unmotivated and lazy, also it keeps your brain fogged up even after the high, just smoke on occasion and not everyday and you'll be fine.

regardless of whether weed is bad for you or not, our society needs LESS intoxicants, not more. stop numbing yourself with beer/weed/heroin and wake up and see what is actually happening

Imagine taking a narcotic.

Marijuana is incredibly stupid as a drug to use, as is the case with all other drugs and intoxicants. Where I live weed has been "legal" since forever and there's no real fuzz around it. Smoking weed more than very rarely is looked down upon.

This user got it right

a few puffs of weed and a heavy dose of fentanyl has been known to completely cure most if not all of the ashkenazi genetic disorders.
my Rabbi told me to smoke half a joint and snort a big long line of fentanyl to get rid of my maple syrup urine syndrome and it worked!!!
spread the word, fentanyl will free my people of their ails!!!

>inhaling anything besides oxygen
Absolute brainlets.

BREAKING NEWS ON CNN NOW:

Ah, this shill thread again, it's been what, 2-3 months? Also, when I get back from holiday, I'm gonna buy a 20 bag, smoke a joint with a friend or two, then smoke some by myself the next day and there's nothing you can do about it. :)

Just to clarify, it's a weeks time until I leave for holiday, just in case anyone thought I wasn't actually British

because Id rather have high on weed bydlo than drunk bydlo.

could you make an infograph that shows how fentanyl cures all the ashkenazi genetic syndrome?
