Cannabis use leads to psychosis

[piercehawkeye45]

Acid flashbacks are the release of tiny amounts of LSD that has remained in your body. I believe LSD can remain in the body from 1 to 20 years. Although I do agree with your main argument Clodfobble.

To break down my logic:
1) I consider weed a weak psychedelic as opposed to LSD and others which I consider strong psychedelics. When I used to smoke particular strains of weed, especially after taking LSD, I noticed that some of the visual and psychedelic effects are similar but on a much weaker level. I have also once taken a weed brownie so strong that two friends and I basically had an acid trip for five hours. For about three of those five we completely forgot it was weed and thought we were on acid. Although, three other friends, taking the same brownies, did not have the acid trip effect.

2) I believe there is enough evidence to make a legitmate connection between strong psychedelics and schizophrenia. I personally know someone whose uncle is permanently in a mental hospital after accidentally absorbing a sheet of acid when attempting to sneak it across the US-Mexico border.

As I mentioned earlier, every legitimate article I've read on the topic has stated that if psychedelic drugs are related to psychosis or schizophrenia, the relation is increased probability. For example, if you have a 30% chance of becoming a schizophrenic, smoking weed or LSD will increase the probability of that happening.

UT's arguments are strong and may prove to be true but at least until more evidence is shown, I believe there is a connection.
