The problem with marijuana as “medical” is that there are over 400 chemicals in marijuana - some of which are helpful to some people, and others that are harmful (expecially people who have schizophrenia, or are predisposed towards it).

I’d wait until the specific medication came out that uses only the positive chemical from marijuana.

But ask yourself if psychcentral is a reliable source of information.

its called cannabidiol, it must be extracted and isolated from cannabis. Cannabis alone usually f***s a schizophrenic brain up for 12 hours.
