[admin]

It is still controvertial whether cannabis is the cause of schizophrenia. But cannabis may increase the chance of developing schizophrenia by about 5 to 6 times especially if you are using it since young for long time.

It is because cannabis induces some chemical changes in the brain and that kind of changes can cause psychotic symptoms. In the long run, cannabis's effect on the brain can increase the chance of you developing schizophrenia especially if you are vulnerable to the condition.

Cannabis can never do good, it leads to many problems due to the intake and the person taking cannabis starting to get addicted. Schizophrenia is only one thing, there are innumerable things that cannabis causes.

Ah so cannabis leads to schizophrenia.
I see, so its like forexample, taking drugs could lead up to cancer
(for example)
Thanks for explaining :)

Good thing I never do drugs then :D I think I myself would never resort to start using drugs because I'm afraid of them lol. I've seen what it's done to people and I can't imagine taking them. Also I had good parents who raised me well, that helped too :D

[Salazarr]

Drugs is one thing, I would never even smoke either. I dont even like it, it chokes me to death when some one smokes...Quit Smoking Folks! But can drugs and cannibas relate?

There is nothing wrong with it when taken in small doses like a midisanal but it does cause problems ^^ in the long run when using every day at high amounts

Everything is bad for you if you use/or eat too much of it.
Even chockolate, makes you fat etc
Too much computer is not healthy...
Too much fruits might make sugar level high especially grapes...

Yes, that is true, but you can't compare cannabis to something like grapes. Grapes are good for you up to a point, and then they start being bad for you. You need to eat an extreme amount of grapes. Cannabis is bad for you from the start.

[Salazarr]

Yes, but it wont harm you as much as it would if you used it more.

Cannabis consuming schizophrenic patients are younger at onset, are likely to have started abuse before onset of schizophrenia and show more prominent positive symptoms than nonabusers. It has been suggested that cannabis is a risk-factor for schizophrenia. Our aim was to assess prevalence and pattern of cannabis use in 125 chronic male schizophrenic subjects and its impact on socioepidemiological and clinical variables as well as which disorder precedes the other in onset. Assessment of consumption was made with a semi-structured clinical interview. Clinical status was assessed by means of the SANS, SAPS, PANSS and BPRS scales.

there is no doubt in my mind that smoking cannabis is bad for you, as it destroys your lungs. Though I don't believe it causes cancer or anything. Ingesting it however I think is quite good for you. Not daily of course. You need to let your body find equilibrium again, ya know? Asides from possibly increasing your chances of developing schizophrenia and an increased chance of heart attack, which returns to normal after the drug wears off, I think the positive benefits strongly outway the negative. I'm a healthy guy, I mean i run 2k everyday so Im not too worried about the heart attack

Both are the worst things because of its deadly results I strongly warned all of the member's here please never tries these products if you want to live long.

Cannabis is never good, it leads to many problems caused by the ingestion and the person who started cannabis addiction. Schizophrenia is one thing, there are countless things that cannabis causes.

I personally feel that body must be build on natural ways & means and it can be occurred because of the heavy dosage of drugs.
