According to a study by the Dutch Central Bureau of Statistics, cannabis users are twice as likely to suffer mental health problems as those that don't use it.
Around 4% of people aged between 15 and 65 admitted to smoking cannabis between 2007 and 2009. A quarter of these smoked daily. Around 28% of the women who used cannabis had mental disorders, against 14% of non-smokers. 20% of men suffered problems against nearly 10% of non-smokers.
I talk to myself more and more (true), is that a mental disorder? if it is then whack me in the 20%. But shut up and stop interrupting my private conversation
In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is King
They must be using a pretty broad definition of mental disorder
to get 10 and 14% amongst non-smokers.
Perhaps there should be more concern about why the levels are so
high amongst the non-smoking public, given that only 4% of the
populace are dope smokers.
Personally, I'm quite happy to be outside the 'normal' classification,
after seeing the insanities perpetrated by normal folk.
