Does cannabis really cause psychosis?1 Recent studies and clinical experience have shown that at least half of all UK teenagers use some cannabis. Colleagues from countries which abjure alcohol report high levels of recreational cannabis use. Certain Caribbean countries use cannabis regularly. How come the incidence of psychosis is the same for all these populations?
Many, but not all, in our secure unit use cannabis, but so do many more outside it. Cannabis seems to worsen psychosis in mentally ill people but not in their mentally stable peers.
