Is Cannabis Dangerous to Health? How Marijuana Negatively Effects Mood & Anxiety
Update: 2024-02-12
Description
Despite the widespread legalization and acceptance of marijuana, there are significant mental health risks associated with its use. Particularly concerning is the rise in marijuana use among young people, potentially harming the developing brain and increasing the risk of schizophrenia. Adults are not exempt, with links found between marijuana use and depression, social anxiety, and even long-lasting mental disorders, including schizophrenia.
In this episode, I discuss:
- Marijuana use, especially among youth, is linked to significant mental health issues, including schizophrenia and depression
- The marketing and normalization of marijuana often mislead people into thinking it is safe, which has led to increased use, especially among young people
- The history of marijuana use has troubling roots in occult practices and is often a gateway to more potent drugs and harmful lifestyles
- Individual responses to marijuana can be influenced by genetic factors, which can lead to adverse effects even in occasional users
- Despite the arguments for legalization, the negative impacts of marijuana on mental health have only increased since its legalization
