  1. I have seen a lot of people in UK smoking skunk and have the same psychotic,antisocial, brain damaged behaviour.And then people say, ah skunk is not bad cause there is no proof.People going nuts from it , is enough proof for me.

  2. If Super Skunk is the only strain to cause pyschosis, then we should all be fine then since we all smoke Stardawg, Zkittles, Gorilla Glue, Super Lemon Haze, Amnesia Haze, OG Kush, etc. Super Skunk hasn't been a common strain for about 12 years or more.

  3. This is complete and utter bullshit. Even their facts are wrong. Skunk which can have 20-40% THC which is a lot lower than hash, people claim that the brain damage comes from THC, meanwhile, good quality hash contains sometimes up to double what skunk has and apparently has no risk in causing psychosis. YOU ARD CONTRADICTING YOURSELF AND LYING TO EVERYONE

  4. If they are so worried that "skunk" causes psychosis then all the other strains of marijuana should be legal. There are probably more cases of psychosis caused by channel 4 fake news news than marijuana.

  5. I was at a party and some people were passing around a joint. When it was offered to me i figured whatever happens i can handle it. I got more than i can handle, i got aids.

  6. I agree dubar khan but skunk is just as bad as it gives people mental health I smoked it 1 night and it give me a bad head and dizzynis and off balance then anxiety kicked in then ocd I've had it for 5 months bastard night would be in the same room as it

  7. Having known personally one schizophrenic who's first episode occurred when he was 16 and BEFORE he started using cannabis who now smokes to medicate the symptoms of his illness, I have no problem believing that schizophrenics are more liklely to use cannabis as a medicant. After all, 80% of schizophrenics smoke tobacco. There is no evidence that shows cannabis materially changes the brain to cause schizophrenia. The data simply shows schizoprehnics are more likely than non schizophrenics to be regular users of strong cannabis.

  8. lol.. alcohol is way worse, dont even TRY to make a case for otherwise.

    Is schizofrenia worse than DEATH? Liver failure, heart failure, cancer, depression and other illnesses that alcohol causes? (+++++ way more).

    No.

    And the schizofrenia thing is not even properly proven when it comes to cannabis.. There are studies who sais yes and studies who sais no.

  9. it's not about the strength of the cannabis, i'ts about a high ammount of THC with a very low ammount of CBD.
    when you get to high ammount of thc, the psychoactive substance will overroll the effects of cbd that works against the thc to work psychoactive. But if everyone was more informed about how cannabis works on you, and how it can play a game with your mind it would much likely be no problem. Have a great day smokers!

  10. The study didn't establish causality, it didn't even seek to.

    All the study showed was that a proportion of people with psychosis also smoke cannabis.

    correlation does not equal causation.

    channel 4 thinks YOU are stupid.

  11. Lmao! For real, if you believe this shit, then you'll believe anything lmao!Skunk doesn't make you psychotic lmao your already that way! Truth! This is what we call main stream media! Don't buy into any of it .

  12. Uhmmm.  Has nobody at Channel-4 ever smoked pot?  Ever actually look up what, "skunk", is?  Hash?
    Y'all are nutts.

    And, no, I don't smoke pot.  But I know more than does whomever, "researched", this story.

  13. by making it illegal it has become more dangerous- street 'skunk' has been unknowingly bred to have high THC and low CBD, the latter of which can be used to TREAT psychosis. Of course, that information is left out. If it was legal and we had all the right info, we can make informed choices and not buy the stuff that could potentially make us go a bit mental. End the drug war

  14. This girl is naive beyond belief. She goes to Brixton and asks passers by if they know anyone who uses cannabis. Wtf?
    That's a bit like going to Las Vegas and asking if anyone here knows of any gambling in the vicinity. Ridiculous faux journalism for the over 70s. In fact, scratch that – the over 70s can still remember the Wooton Report, which recommended decriminalisation way back then, (1968). That's how long this tiresome argument has been rattling round the corridors of the chattering classes. Meanwhile the rest of the population slowly shake their heads in disbelief, then sit back and roll themselves a fat one.

  15. liars the study find out that we have corrupt leaders and paedophiles in parliament and the media close their eyes and take my ganja away because hi got stone to forget this sic planet we live in
