🚨 CAN CANNABIS CAUSE PSYCHOSIS? YES — HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW Breaking News NYC x Block Work Media Cannabis is often described as harmless, but for some people, especially those who use high-THC products frequently, it can trigger serious mental health symptoms — including psychosis. 🧠 WHAT CAN CANNABIS-RELATED PSYCHOSIS LOOK LIKE? Someone experiencing psychosis may develop: ⚠️ Hallucinations ⚠️ Extreme paranoia ⚠️ Delusions or strongly held false beliefs ⚠️ Severe confusion ⚠️ Feeling like people are watching or targeting them ⚠️ Difficulty telling what is real from what isn't Research has found an association between frequent cannabis use and an increased risk of psychotic disorders. The risk can be particularly concerning for people who already have factors that make them vulnerable to psychosis. 🔥 HIGH-THC PRODUCTS MAY CARRY MORE RISK Today's cannabis products can contain much higher levels of THC than marijuana commonly used decades ago. Concentrates and other highly potent products can deliver especially large doses. That doesn't mean everyone who uses cannabis will develop psychosis. Most people who use cannabis do not develop a psychotic disorder. But the risk is real, and some people can be much more vulnerable than others. 🚨 KNOW THE WARNING SIGNS If someone using cannabis suddenly becomes extremely paranoid, hears or sees things that aren't there, becomes severely confused, or behaves dangerously, don't simply assume they're "just high." Stop using cannabis and seek medical help. If they're a danger to themselves or others, call 911 or seek emergency care immediately. 💬 Have you or someone you know experienced severe paranoia or hallucinations after using cannabis? #Cannabis #Marijuana #THC #Psychosis #MentalHealth @BLOCK WORK MEDIA GROUP
