It is surprising how defensive people get when risks related to cannabis use is brought up.
Regardless of any factual errors in the article. Anyone who has been around smokers for a long time will know that paranoia of various degrees of severity is very common side effect of cannabis use. For some, it is merely unsettling, for others it becomes a debilitating condition.
As I said, everyone who's been around smokers for a long time knows this (the plural of anecdote is data). I guess that leaves the hipsters and intelligentsia casual users to get upset when their cool and sophisticated drug is shown to have problems too. Well it does.
- nate_meurer 12y agoI look forward to seeing your data compiled and peer reviewed. Until then it really is just plural anecdote. And yes, I too am around a lot of smokers, and not a one of them shows any sign of hightened "paranoia", whatever that means. See the problem with anecdotes?
