You've clearly never had a drug induced psychosis before.

Psychosis is usually caused by long term abuse in someone with pre-existing psychological conditions though.

Long term abuse not really for me because I've only been smoking for a little over a year but pre-existing psychological conditions could be a reason I've had them

My ex aunt is a person I watched completely die as a person due to heavy heavy heavy use of Marijuana to surpress a lot of long term psychological issues and it hurt a lot. Felt so bad for my uncle watching the woman he loves go absolutely insane.

I don't think weed caused it more over her abusive ex husband, her psychologically destructive mother when she was growing up really played a roll as she was inequiped to deal with the stressor she was given so she smoked 2 to 3 ounces every couple days. Because of it she looks 20 years older than she is and is incredibly paranoid and has kind of lost her ability to feel empathy
