48. I don't have an agenda here, and this is not MY claim. I simply agree
with the many claims made by mental health scientists and professionals:

Here are more articles from the website that bolster the case:

and more:

A new study recently published in the journal Biological Psychiatry, studying the Israeli draft board records demonstrated that young men between the ages of 16 and 17 who abuse drugs are twice as likely to develop schizophrenia as those men who do not abuse drugs. This increased risk does not exist for other, nonpsychotic, mental illnesses. Furthermore, the authors of the study state that their data did not support the concept that vulnerable individuals were self-medicating.

Believe it or not, I don't have an agenda here. It took me years to realize what happened to my relative. But, there is no doubt in my mind that marijuana (for whatever reason) perhaps it's a common pesticide used on the plant??? caused/contributed to the illness in said rele.
