Link between Adolescent Pot Smoking and Psychosis Strengthens
Research presented at a Berlin psychiatric conference shows teenage cannabis use hastens onset of schizophrenia in vulnerable individuals
By R. Douglas Fields on October 20, 2017
BERLIN—Society’s embrace of cannabis to treat nausea, pain and other conditions proceeds apace with the drive to legalize the plant for recreational use. Pot’s seemingly innocuous side effects have helped clear a path toward making it a legal cash crop, with all of the marketing glitz brought to other consumer products. But that clean bill of health only goes so far. Marijuana’s potentially detrimental impact on the developing brains of adolescents remains a key focus of research—particularly because of the possibility teenage users could go on to face a higher risk of psychosis.

Right there. At a
PSYCHIATRIC CONFERENCE (that's a Sales Meeting/Brain Storming session in plain English)
Best reason I know of to throw the BS flag.
No, I'm not defending pot smoking, especially for kids.
But psychosis?
It will burn them out, and leave them stupid, but psychotic?
And I don't give a rat's hind foot that it's in Scientific American.
When it comes to what makes people think and behave in any given manner, the answers are to be found in how they're Taught to think, by their parents, their friends, and Society at large. Answers/Bio Modifications of those who don't fit in/Cures are not to be found in the field of physical medicine.
