    POSTED MARCH 07, 2011, 11:03 AM , UPDATED NOVEMBER 30, 2011, 2:28 PM

    Ann MacDonald
    Contributor, Harvard Health

    Teenagers and young adults who use marijuana may be messing with their heads in ways they don’t intend.
    Evidence is mounting that regular marijuana use increases the chance that a teenager will developΒ psychosis, a pattern of unusual thoughts or perceptions, such as believing the television is transmitting secret messages. It also increases the risk of developingΒ schizophrenia, a disabling brain disorder that not only causes psychosis, but also problems concentrating and loss of emotional expression.
    InΒ one recent studyΒ that followed nearly 2,000 teenagers as theyΒ οΏΌbecame young adults, young people who smoked marijuana at least five times were twice as likely to have developed psychosis over the next 10 years as those who didn’t smoke pot.
    Another new paperΒ concluded that early marijuana use could actually hasten the onset of psychosis by three years. ThoseΒ most at riskΒ are youths who already have a mother, father, or sibling with schizophrenia or some other psychotic disorder.
    Young people with a parent or sibling affected by psychosis have a roughly one in 10 chance of developing the condition themselvesβ€”even if they never smoke pot. Regular marijuana use, however, doubles their riskβ€”to a one in five chance of becoming psychotic.
    In comparison, youths in families unaffected by psychosis have a 7 in 1,000 chance of developing it. If they smoke pot regularly, the risk doubles, to 14 in 1,000.
    For years, now, experts have been sounding the alarm about a possible link between marijuana use and psychosis. One of the best-known studies followed nearly 50,000Β young Swedish soldiersΒ for 15 years. Those who had smoked marijuana at least once were more than twice as likely to develop schizophrenia as those who had never smoked pot. The heaviest users (who said they used marijuana more than 50 times) were six times as likely to develop schizophrenia as the nonsmokers.
    So far, this research shows only anΒ associationΒ between smoking pot and developing psychosis or schizophrenia later on. That’s not the same thing as saying that marijuanaΒ causesΒ psychosis.
    This is how research works.Β Years ago, scientists first noted an association between cigarette smoking and lung cancer. Only later were they able to figure out exactly how cigarette smoke damaged the lungs and other parts of the body, causing cancer and other diseases.
    The research on marijuana and the brain is at a much earlier stage. We do know thatΒ THC, one of the active compounds in marijuana, stimulates the brain and triggers other chemical reactions that contribute to the drug’s psychological and physical effects.
    But it’s not clear how marijuana use might lead to psychosis. One theory is that marijuana may interfere with normal brain development during the teenage years and young adulthood.
    The teenage brain is still a work in progress. Between the teen years and the mid-20s, areas of the brain responsible for judgment and problem solving are still making connections with the emotional centers of the brain. Smoking marijuana may derail this process and so increase a young person’s vulnerability to psychotic thinking. (You can read more about how the adolescent brain develops inΒ this article from theΒ Harvard Mental Health Letter.)
    While the research on marijuana and the mind has not yet connected all the dots, these new studies provide one more reason to caution young people against using marijuanaβ€”especially if they have a family member affected by schizophrenia or some other psychotic disorder. Although it may be a tough concept to explain to a teenager, the reward of a short-time high isn’t worth the long-term risk of psychosis or a disabling disorder like schizophrenia.

  21. Joy McArthur on September 11, 2020 at 11:58 pm

    Whether you partake or not, you have to ask yourself if it makes sense to spend your tax dollars to prosecute and jail someone for using or selling weed. Some bozo across town is smoking weed and I am supposed to pay hard earned tax dollars to maintain him in a prison? This should happen while there are violent criminals out there running loose? Absurd.

  25. owenswamp on September 12, 2020 at 12:00 am

    Banks don’t care whether you’re depositing cash or not. A lot of different businesses deposit and deal in large amounts of cash. Banks are concerned that marijuana is illegal on the federal level, which makes depositing or loaning out money on behalf of any marijuana business potentially illegal and extremely risky.

    i have no problem with legal grows because they are produced for the health and comfort of folks suffering difficulty health issues. BUT when I see all these illegal mexican/cartel pot farms going in ALL OVER THE DESERT around us, it infuriates me. They will build an 8 foot fence around a 10,000 sq ft "grow area" and grow their illegal grow. They don’t have permits, and they care how it is a blight to the neighborhood. We scared away one cartel telling them we knew what they were doing and were going to inform the police. They split so fast so we KNOW they were illegal. Those of you who have a legal enterprise have to go through so many hoops and inspections and taxes and taxes and fees and permits in order to conduct business. I personally don’t agree with smoking pot for recreation because I know a lot of potheads and they are like Spicoli from Fast Times. Unless you have a medical problem it’s bad. BUT I respect those of you who take the business seriously and learn everything you need to know about all the different plants out there. My husband is on CBD for Lyme Disease and it was a God send. He doesn’t need the THC. Anything with THC makes me sick, but for those suffering pain and other maladies its a God send. It’s getting harder and harder for the cartels to get their stuff over the border with the wonderful Trump Fence GOD BLESS HIM, and yet they’re looking at an easier way to get "product to make their bucks" by growing within our U.S. border.

    Don’t try it in California. They just say it’s legal, but it really isn’t…

    I had a question if your still doing your page? I need help…and don’t just want to ask just anyone? But im a first-time grower got my clones the other week from my husband’s friend and they did not tell me how old the Clones were. Needless to say I transplanted them Sunday morning into bigger pots. But come to find out I think I planted them to soon…..can I try to save them if they aren’t dead.?

    Yo, Shane is not good at growing weed there boss



  45. HerbGrowingLegal on September 12, 2020 at 12:19 am

    Everyone assumes it’s all about selling your weed. Nope that’s only one part of this buisness.. you could..
    sell genetics
    Open a business helping older people and noobs grow perfect
    Sell supplies (hydroponic store)
    Set farms for others
    Write books on it
    Logo design
    Making items from hemp
    Promoting others
    Competing in cups
    The list could easily go on and on. Think smart don’t waste money when another company can make you the same amount if not more.
    I thought of these on the spot , think if you took time and over a year planned something out to perfection. I hope everyone reading this makes a killing πŸ₯‚πŸ”₯
