What’s the percentage of developing CHS compared to psychotic disorders?

CHS? Cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome?

One reason why alcohol companies may not warn of all the risks involved is that they may not be required to do so by law or regulations. We can get this right with cannabis companies!

There is a significant body of peer-reviewed evidence that suggests a link between cannabis use and an increased risk of schizophrenia. Studies have consistently found that people who use cannabis are more likely to develop schizophrenia or other psychotic disorders than those who do not use the drug.
Some examples of peer-reviewed research on this topic include:
- A 2019 meta-analysis of 83 longitudinal studies that found a clear association between cannabis use and the onset of psychotic symptoms, including schizophrenia. The study concluded that cannabis use increases the risk of psychotic disorders by about three-fold.
- A 2020 study published in The Lancet Psychiatry that used a large dataset to investigate the relationship between cannabis use and schizophrenia. The study found that heavy cannabis users were more likely to develop schizophrenia than occasional users or non-users, and that the risk increased with the amount of cannabis used.
- A 2018 study published in JAMA Psychiatry that used brain imaging to examine the effects of cannabis use on brain structure and function in people at high risk of developing schizophrenia. The study found that cannabis use was associated with changes in brain regions that are known to be involved in the development of psychotic disorders.

While marijuana and psychosis can cause similar symptoms such as paranoia, confusion, and altered perceptions, there are important differences between the two.
Marijuana use typically leads to mild to moderate cognitive changes and euphoria, while psychosis involves more intense and persistent mental disturbances, including delusions and hallucinations.
Marijuana use is often temporary, lasting only a few hours, while psychosis is a serious and long-term condition that requires medical attention.
It's important to note that marijuana use can potentially trigger or worsen underlying psychotic disorders in people who are already at risk. If you are experiencing any concerning symptoms or have questions about your mental health, it's best to talk to a medical professional.

Leading people to vote yes for safety can be seen as a strategy to promote policies or actions that prioritize the well-being and protection of individuals and society as a whole. Ultimately, the goal is to create a safer environment for everyone, which can improve quality of life and reduce the incidence of harm and risk in the community.

National Institute of Mental Health, the heritability of schizophrenia is estimated to be around 80%, meaning that 80% of the risk for developing schizophrenia is due to genetic factors. This information is also supported by a meta-analysis of family studies, which found that the lifetime risk of schizophrenia is approximately 6.5% among first-degree relatives of people with the illness, compared to a population prevalence of around 1%.

According to current scientific understanding, there is no definitive percentage for how much schizophrenia is inherited. However, it is generally accepted that genetic factors play a significant role in the development of schizophrenia. Studies have shown that individuals with a family history of schizophrenia have a higher risk of developing the disorder, and certain genetic variants have been associated with an increased risk. However, it is also known that environmental factors can contribute to the development of schizophrenia, and the interplay between genetic and environmental factors is complex and not yet fully understood. But we should warn of potential risks such as schizophrenia.

Yeah so I’ve been busy today reaching out to people. But I messaged someone at the usda ri about this idea of starting a tree/shrub nursery. I just need help getting started I guess. Not sure where to apply. But I want this to be a small nursery with a fenced in area and a few greenhouses. I have always had a green thumb 😁🌱
