237. there is certainly a higher risk of flipping out by using pot, I'm not saying it shouldn't be used,
not at all, however, to refute the facts is asinine, indeed.

I used it only a few times, I enjoyed it somewhat, however, I felt rather disconnected from life when I was using it (and not necessarily just when I was 'using' it), and the friend I did it with 'changed' and become rather crazy over time, and became irrational when he exhibited calm behavior before using it. There's an argument that perhaps he was going to do this anyhow, but the fact is that he was smoking every couple days, and people can decry that fact all they want, but it is one. Also, 3 teens in a car that I knew, while high, nearly killed one of their friends because they weren't paying attention --- as I've always said to people - driving and smoking is an absolute stupid move.

The report stands on the facts - EVERY situation is different, and of course, some people would surely become mentally ill regardless of their use of pot, but it's still facts based on use vs. non-use.
