A great talk, thank you so much for sharing. I’m also from the UK and also experienced cannabis induced psychosis as a teenager. The episodes are 17/18 years ago now but the experience was so horrific it changed my entire life. It’s so important to get the message out there of the enormous mental health risks cannabis consumption can cause, particularly in teenagers.
For teenagers it is something i wouldn't disagree with, adults aged 25+ to 30+ is a different story, while based on my previous experience i remember it having more addictive and pleasant feeling when i was 18 but as i grew older, it's effects were more neutral and earlier or later i got rid of that habit, it made me amotivated, and plain simply was staring at the ceiling 15 minutes and decided that it's unfit to me and i'm better off with productivity.
Wonderful information ty!!!
You are so welcome!
I bought this book today I am looking forward to getting in to it x
Good book. Short, concise, easy to read and well footnoted.

Sad. 💝
Same as my daughter.
There was a very good reason a past generation passed laws against marijuana. We all lose when we dismiss the wisdom of our elders.
Nah. Knowledge and education of it is more valuable and more of answer.
It's important to notify the public about potential hazards if mis-used or in excess while also when it's regulated and sold to 21+ in a controlled and under regulation and each strain is regulated by potency to minimize the harms and risks associated with higher potency products which gray and black market makes it very likely like in Britian and other places.
Look into keto diet, jungian depth psychology, and supplementing with high dose vitamin c and niacin along with a balanced lifestyle
Terry, please research these topics if you haven’t already..

Does the son still use cannabis ???????
its obvious the lad had issues from the start.. stop blaming cannabis... using the plant had cured my stuttering and has helped millions or billions of people.. piss off
those voices are called your conscience... these people are mistaking already established mental health issues for cannabis abuse...
