Marijuana Can Lead to Psychosis
Something from Reuters, 7/26/07, for young people to think about -- including RT students:
Marijuana Can Lead to Psychosis:
Marijuana users have a 41 percent increased risk of developing psychotic symptoms later in life, the risk of which increases with heavier consumption, British researchers report in Lancet. Past research has demonstrated such a link, but this is the most conclusive and thorough review of its kind, the researchers wrote. They also estimate, based on this study, that 800 cases of schizophrenia in Britain could be avoided each year if marijuana smoking were eliminated in the country. (Reuters, 7/26/07)
