I have two friends who started at a young age and they fucked their lives with this shit. It's not anecdotal at this point.
Similarly, I know of several persons that went schizophrenic after car accidents, but were the car accidents the cause?
Not suggesting people should smoke weed when they're young etc, but there's a reason that we do these gigantic, extremely complex, extremely failure-prone things called clinical trials to actually ascertain the effects of drugs in the body.
It's because we've found over and over and over and over and over that the "I know N people who X then Y" claims were wrong.
For example: Why did those two people start smoking weed so young? Were their lives, families, and personalities otherwise the same as everyone else? Probably not!
