My understanding is cannabis can trigger schizophrenia in those with a predisposition. Some people will have this triggered in their lifetime, and others will not. Some things like stress can trigger this, as well as some drugs like cannabis


> as well as some drugs like schizophrenia.

If someone offers you schizophrenia at a party, don't take it


Lol good catch, I was in a waiting room and didn't get to check grammar. Fixed


This makes sense.

Also it's known(both by researchers and users) that cannabis can increase/create paranoia in some people. And paranoia is stressful so that can lead to schizophrenia(and paranoia is a part of the diagnostic criteria for schizophrenia).
