RE: Cons of cannabis
I'm sorry, I don't mean going to a doctor just because you want to smoke weed, however if mental illness is in the family it won't be that stupid to go. Although, I have never heard of a case where someone had their mental illness ''triggered'' by weed.
If one of my parents had schizophrenia, I might go for a chat with my doctor to reassure myself. Drugs (legal / illegal / perfectly natural / perfectly unnatural) might all come up with your doctor but it's best to avoid them if they're old-fashioned / likely to toe the governement line. But I doubt I'd go looking for a quack opinion unless it was offered honestly. You could include hallucinogens in the mental illness debate. The US wanted to develop them to use them as chemical weapons (LSD) yet many people (myself included) think they're the best thing for a damaged mind.
This comment is very true, I really like the LSD part. I am also someone who supports the use of LSD for for example therapy, there is lots of evidence that it works for therapy.
