No

yes and no, weed reveals schizophrenia, but not creat it. You are or you are not schizo, weed just speed up the thing

yes. and many more.

O but it wil open up shit that was dorment before..lkke an xbox achievement.

Achievement Unlocked: Schizophrenia

Yes, if you are genetically predisposed to schizophrenia.
It can cause garden variety psychosis in all users, though

No, well that's what the voices tell me.

This

weed turned me gay

This, same with all psychedelics

Yes but the voices all speak spanish znd i have no idea what thier saying

no, it cant

weed has also been known to cause ebola, aids, the common cold and the stigmata.

the voices have also been known to speak like a 70's hippie or gangster rappers

Schizophrenia is just fear manifesting with out you pushing through it
Just accept death and suffering as part of your life and let fear still be there don't block it, recognise it push through it with heart

for those who dont know:

psychosis != schizophrenia

drug related paranoia is not the same

Every addict jumps onto this theory as if its fact to make themselves feel better.

In the same way that flashing lights cause epilepsy. If you are already predisposed for psychosis and/or shizophrenia cannabis can luxate an episode.

I used to smoke a lot in high school with people. One friend has psychotic episodes every now and again. Has been admitted twice to a psych ward so far. Another friend has full blown schizophrenia. I see him every now and again in my home town. Completely dissociated from reality. Quite heart wrenching to see considering we did the same shit, it could have been me. Not saying this guy wouldn't have gotten schizophrenia if he stayed off the drugs but it sure as shit didnt help

heavy use of LSD will actually make you crazy

Is he like a crazy homeless person ?

Mrs. Reagan please stop. Noone cares about your war on drugs

Many drugs can cause psychosis, it is called drug induced psychosis.

Even cigarettes and coffee can cause drug induced psychosis.

no and theres proof of it.
Marijuana use has risen every year since the 60's. so up ward slop if you graphed it.
schizophrenia cases diagnosed each year has stayed exactly the same.
So that would be no slop.
The two don't in no way reflect each other.

>implying photo epileptic seizures is generalized epilepsy

No idea about schizo but it definitely slows the brain with regular use.

>this
its not paranoid-schizo just stop smoking

Sure blame it on the weed...we all know the truth

You are wrong

Only if you're a retard.
-"I hear voices" it's called thinking, dumbass.

I seriously hope this is bait.

prove it

It can trigger schizophrenia prematurely if you already have it but it isn't active. You shouldn't worry about it unless you have schizophrenia in the family.

First part yes, second part you're a moron.

Weed.

americas easy target since 1906

Is this one of those Ching Chong porno flics? Could I please have the original source?

proof?

what do you call that new abstract mathematical metaphor

If your family(father mother grandparents w/e) has some sort of mental illness than you are more likely to have mental illness as well, drugs would speed up the process.

I'd say smoke not as often and smoke weed with a thc percentage lower than 25%

i wasted my trips

No it doesn't. For the love of god what a bunch of ignorance about this topic. We are in the 2016 people!!! and everyone of you has a portable computer on the your pocket.

Ye, it will, i've got a pal whos mom is schizophrenic. Besides the fact that its genetic, the process gets sped up noticably. He got to a point where he was psychotic cunt, but kept smoking, talked with him thousands of times about it. then he stopped, and now hes somewhat normal, but the 'dents' he got under the influence, that werent there to begin with, are still peaking at him, but it helped a ton to quit

I don't need to.

You don't even know what you're talking about, you fucking pleb

I can imagine that heavy use leads to a certain disconnection from reality.

oh ok, cool bruh

No, but it can cause cannabis psychosis from constant usage. Its why I had to stop. 2 ounces a week for 5 years and I was turned into a quivering bitch. Annoying because I'd love to smoke weed still, but the effects aren't the same any more.

ive smoked weed almost every day for 7 years, and although i personally feel fine, i still think the answer to your question is "yes"

I personally believe it can. Drugs have been shown to alter dna of the people taking them in ways that aren't super understood. I think psychedelics, weed, heroin, even alcohol can have strong enough effects to cause a mental illness. Which isn't the end of the world if you have one it's just a new thing you have to live with. Anyways yeah like some people mentioned here there's drug induced psychosis . I really do think drugs can alter brain chemistry to cause things like shitzophrenia or at lest symptoms which correlate with mental quirks that we call shitzophrenia.
I think it's a good thing to happen. t. crazyman

weed just speed it up

damn i recon you had your own weedplants and shit. i smoked 20 grams a week, and i costed me 500 euro a month, had no job ofcourse. couse nobody can work when you smoke so mutch.And i don't mean becouse your high but more becouse your to busy rolling joins and smoking them all the time.

JESUS CHRIST.
2 ounces a week? What kinda job do you have?

I smoked weed for years.

has a nasal surgery on my inferior turbinate that went bad in 2013. had nerve damage in my nose. turbinate stopped functioning. turbinate is basically the air conditioner for your brain. when you have ens it's like your brain is overheated all day long. can't sleep or concentrate. your brain actually sends messages to the body saying it's suffocating. so it's quite severe. it's a condition called empty nose syndrome. feels like there's no oxygen in lungs at all. I know people blab about how their disease is worse well empty nose syndrome is seriously the worst. kills your quality of life. gets worse and no treatment. spent$10k getting it fixed with regenerative medicine and my nasal breathing still fluctuates.

honestly almost killed myself it's a miracle I'm still alive and shitposting on Sup Forums still

don't fall for the nasal surgery meme I guess is what I'm saying.

here watch, learn then stfu. yw

nice try trollin
or youre actually a moron
either way kys
micdrop>>>>exit stage right

First and foremost, negative feelings are manifestations of fear and/or stress. In medicine, we treat that which we call depression and schizophrenia ass illnesses. They are not, in any way. However, they schizophrenia is genetical, which means it's quite different from other forms of depressive states. As you progressively worsen psychologically, you might eventually reach a state of psychosis (it's a progressive motion toward having no ground in reality, there is no definite state). As for why some people are more susceptible to schizophrenia, I can't say.

Weed is a boundry disolving drug, just like psychedelics. Weed is relatively subtle, but all the same it will show you that your previous idea of how the world works is wrong - be it consciously or sub-consciously. This can be both liberating and terrifying. And if you're already in a bad place, it might just make things worse all together. That is, if you have no healthy bonds, no trust worthy friends to rely on, no goal in life - ripping these ideas from your mind and tearing them apart can absolutely be destructive, unless you can find help and create healthy bonds.
Therefore, cannabis CAN help pave the way for psychosis, which for people with schizophrenia in their family means bye bye sanity.

you sound schizo as fuck

Jesus, I can't type and sound like a moron.
I should atleast get points for trying.

>depression and schizophrenia ass illnesses
HOLY SHIT

Yes it can, depends how your brain is wired though. If you are an actual genius it is better to avoid weed at all cost. I know of two cases geniuses that fried their brains with one hit.

Also it should be avoided in the development stages of the brain, especially during childhood and teen years.

People who say it is harmless are idiots. the fact is it is not very harmful for most people but not all.

oh god

...

fried their brains after one hit...shut your fucken mouth.

That poster actually knows what they are talking about.

Yes. Happened to my buddy after only 3 marijuanas.

Stfu

This doesn't mean shit

*FUCK*

oh ok, sure, did you happen to look at the title given to the first guy talking? Professor emeritus at harvard psychiatry. do understand what that means? yup, that means shit. ok ill believe you.
