My cousin that I went hunting with last weekend is a psychiatrist in Denver and he's buried two patients from it in the last year and he has put many young people in long-term institutional care because the edibles cause a lifetime of psychosis because it rewires the brain if first time or casual smokers take a huge dose of edibles. Before moving to Colorado, he'd never seen a single case a cannabis psychosis but deals with it regularly now that it's been legalized.


Ridiculous. You guys have been watching too much Reefer Madness.


GFY. He's a board-certified psychiatrist. People a f'ing dying and the the pot heads are out there talking about how safe marijuana is. Smoked pot. It's a drug and the risks are low. HOWEVER. Edibles are absorbed into the body much differently and in large doses can cause a psychosis.
