I know that weed seems to be a triggering catalyst for folks with latent schizophrenia. I know of folks that smoked one joint, and never came back, but these are rare incidents.
You hear this type of thing from psychedelic evangelists all the time "changed my life, learned so much" etc but when asked to substantiate these claims or provide any concrete evidence of behavioural changes or otherwise positive effects, they cannot.
By the way, im not a luddite. Done my fair share, but I'm honest with myself, its mostly just recreation, and dangerous recreation at that.
Well glad it works for ya
And wouldnt ya know it, OP responded, wasnt offended, agreed with me, and had special extenuating circumstances that make his situation complete not applicable to the general public (save those with similar situations)
"Invalidating a person" is a ludicrous concept. Perhaps I was a bit brash or rude sure, but "invalidating"? Give me a break.
Youre offended on someone elses behalf, and they arent even offended. By the way, by your logic, you are invalidating me by expressing that my opinion, my experiences, and my perspective should not be voiced because it is invalidating.
Silly concept. Id have much rather you just called me an asshole and spare me all the pearl clutching.
