Actually yes there is such a thing as THC induced psychosis but it’s not so simple as “I smoked weed too early.” I’m more speaking to the negative impact on adolescent development if you smoke (usually somewhat regularly) too early. One toke is not going to have a big impact. The risk of psychosis has a lot more to do with family history and other conditions someone may have that may have not been diagnosed yet, such as BPD and schizophrenia. So yes I guess technically it would be higher risk for adolescence because they may have an undiagnosed condition that they’re not on guard about, but not exactly in the way that you’re implying.
The other thing to consider is that weed is exponentially stronger than it was 15 or 20 years ago. Hell it’s increased in potency a lot even in the last 10 years. Shit is jet fuel at this point, you almost have to go out of your way to find bad weed now. I can take one hit from my dry herb vaporizer of bud from our mediocre medical dispensary and I’m more than good, even as a regular user.
what exactly is gonna happen to me? Is the psychosis a Symptom?
