well, i have to agree with stroodle and maguru.
Atma, i have not looked at the cannabis-psychosis link YET, but have experienced it for myself, however i also retained enough strength of mind to overcome it and that was at the age of 17 after not smoking for 1.5 years due to psychosis / a psychotic episode. So i dont belive it to be a be all end all situation, unlike schizophrenia.
I am also sickened by the wide use of marajuana amongst young people in society because i would not like anybody to experience what i went through.
I also think there are many others factors that contribute to the extreme devastating affects of maraujana use in SOME young people, such as genetic factors, i.e being prone to schizophrenia, psychosis or watever, traumatising experieneces and so on so forth but dont belive canabis is to blame.and dont belive it should even be outlawed. my personal belief is that it should be legalised and controlled with class a consequenes for under 18's.
but back to the point, Yes i whole heartedly belive that cannabis, can instigate a spiritual awakening but furthermore leads to a permanent spiritual change amoungst SOME people.
I would also like to ad i am on day 17 of a 30 day cannabis free period and no matter what i am going to have a smoke at the end of it, i was a bit hesitant about smoking again as i have changed and grown for the better once more, but after reading this thread i can rest knowing that i will not be addicted again and that it is probably good for your mind, to have a smoke once in a while, although i strongly reccomend a 30 break for any weed smoker as i belive you will appreciate and respect the drug more and also hopefully not lose your marbles.
I have thoroughly enjoyed this thread and thats all i have to say on the matter im not arrrogant but belive im right in this case, if that is'nt to much off a contradiction, lol.
peace too you all and let the good times ROLL
