Dear All,

Anyone who doesn't think cannabis can be causative of schizophrenia
should listen to someone who has been there... At the age of 19, as a
junior at Rice University, I was smoking pot nearly every day until one
day I didn't come back down until I landed on the 7th floor of
Methodist Hospital in downtown Houston... That was the beginning of my
battle with schizophrenia... Even now, if I want to get floridly
psychotic, all I have to do is smoke a joint... Even nicotine can make
me ill... Marijuana is not innocuous for someone who is predisposed to
mental illness... Just thought I'd pass that along...
