These studies haven't actually proven anything other than people with mental illness use weed. For all you know these people could have been self-medicating after they contracted the illness. And a proper control group wasn't used. So these studies are less then reliable.

Not to mention at least two of the people managing the studies were working for big pharmaceutical companies with interests in medicines for psychosis.

And most importantly which no one seems to have picked up on. Correlation DOES NOT EQUAL causation. Therefore these studies haven't proven anything assuming everything was peachy from the start.


Maybe you are too stoned to have picked up on it, but this is in the article itself:

Quote:

Scientists cannot rule out that pre-existing conditions could have led to both marijuana use and later psychoses, he added.


Though it's not a huge argument in favor of weed smokers to say "Yeah, well, maybe we smoke weed because we are mentally ill, instead of the weed making us that way!"

I'm the bawss.
