How is cannabis medicine when so many are going into psychosis. I have a son who went into psychosis and then told he is bipolar. He has gone into psychosis many times using cannabis. I know many others who also have gone into psychosis.

Who diagnosed him with Psychosis? Cannabis does not cause Psychosis! If what he was smoking was laced with something else that he bought off the street, then yes, there is no telling what it led to, but I do not buy into Cannabis causing Psychosis! Big pharma products cause Psychosis! Big Pharma is corrupt, and they do not want you healthy. What have we learned in the last four years? For some, it was nothing
We took him to ER as he was not sleeping, going back and forth from laughing and crying, delusional, hallucinating, talking about random off the wall stuff. Believing he had special powers. His girlfriend and he used cannabis daily for several years. We took him to ER because we had no idea what was going on and we thought maybe he had a brain tumor or brain infection. ER admitted him to Behavioral Health Unit. Of course he was put on meds. We researched for alternatives. Sent him to Arizona for detox and to get healthy, get off meds and stop using cannabis. Our son would come home and shortly after return to using cannabis and within 6 mos. Would become manic, grandiose, delusional, not sleep, wander the streets at night and get picked up by police. Have lived with it for 8 years.
Not cannabis related! What do you know about the Endocannabinoid system? Drugs that do cause Psychosis are Methamphetamine and Cocaine but mostly Meth! Sounds like he got a hold of something that was laced with something other than Cannabis! It also, depends where he purchased his cannabis! Cannabis is benign and is a medication if you know anything about it and it active compounds!
I have a terrible reaction to THC, granted they were heavy doses on two occasions. I experienced pain outside of my body and was going in and out of reality. I know with 100% certainty that what I smoked/consumed was not laced.
I since tried smaller amounts with a milder reaction but still very uncomfortable.
I'm not saying this equals what Gabriella's son went through but just that dosage and individual reactions can be a bigger deal than one would anticipate.
Beverley, I understand, I will be doing a 5-6 part teachong series on the medicinal use of Cannabis! For pain you want to use a sublingual decarboxylated CBD oil that has less than .7% THC which is legal in pretty much every state and has 20-23% CBD however terpene profile of the strain is more important than the CBD percentage!
DonтАЩt no about Endocannabinoid system. I just see the merry-go-round results of my son using cannabis. He did not get his cannabis from off the street, always from dispensaries.

Then what is the cause of my sonтАЩs behavior?
