A lot of them admit to smoking canabis, which is then pointed out to them that this drug can produce paranoia, and may explain why they are having trouble believing that their partner isn't cheating on them, or that the children are in fact their's.

Re: Cannabis

It seems strange that Queen Victoria wasn't 'amused', as most of the time she appears to have been smacked up to the eyeballs.

Personally I can't see that waving your hands in the air for hours on end, smiling manically, and telling everyone you love them, will be much of a relief, as I do that anyway.
I saw a documentary about this, and so the difference it had to the sufferrers all I can say is If that was my relative I would willingly score them Ecstacy as it improved there life untold amounts.

Would you say out of interest alchol makes you violent like week makes you paranoid?

Having Parkinson's myself, I think anything that may bring relief is worth investigating.

Re: Cannabis

I see a lot of comparing with weed/alcohol. As I see it you can lock people up for misusing alcohol to a point where they are becoming a danger to others.

As for weed, you can't lock people up for damaging themselves mentally (except in extreme cases), hence it's illegal to try and stop people getting in that situation.

I guess this all depends on your personal philosophy. Is the state there to protect your liberty from being invaded by others, or does it go further, should they be able to interfere in your own personal private liberty (kind of 'We know best')? Your answer to that question should sway you either way in the legality argument, but you'll find that your other views on things may conflict with your decision, if you apply the liberty argument elsewhere.

Are you refering to being sectioned?

Who's to say Cannabis is more harmfull the Alcohol in the mentally department.

IMO its down to the user whatever the drug, how far they take it.

If I was to smoke a whole load of weed, I would feel sick, throw up, be ill or go asleep or Whitey as the saying goes.

If I was to drink a whole load of Alcohol I could poison myself to where I need URGENT medical attention.

Which is worse?

Well that's the point of the rest of my post. Clearly cannabis doesn't affect your mind. It's a lot harder to cure mental illness.

Re: Cannabis

When I inhaled (a long time ago)- the first time made me sick.
After that it just made me relaxed and happy.
One most remarkable benefit was improved hearing- Pink Floyd sounded superb
still sounds great but I miss that fine detail
