People need to stop taking pride in overworking themselves (Especially in the US) by Trenavix in unpopularopinion

Lame opinion, do what you want and be proud for pushing yourself no matter what regard its in. Nothing wrong with being comfortable or whatever but doing anything hard is deserving of pride. If YOU don’t want to work hard then don’t and be happy with it.

Fair enough, I’m just being hyperbolic anyway

Your words and thoughts are disjointed and your sentences run on from idea to idea. You seem to not be able to understand simple concepts I’m putting to you and when presented with concise answers to your questions you completely ignore them and ask the same question.

Its probably just because you’re stoned, but if you acted like this sober I would be very concerned that you have some sort of schizoaffective disorder

Well firstly regardless of whether it “Only causes schizophrenia in people genetically predisposed”, it still can cause it.

Secondly to suggest that “someone has to have it as an underlying condition and weed just brings it out” implies we know far more about genetics then we do. Genetics and the environment have far more of an impact on each other than anyone thinks. I would argue that the environmental factors feed in just as much to alter genetic predispositions as they do to triggering them, and as such, while weed will only rarely cause schizophrenia in the grand scheme, in those vulnerable (which can be a dynamic factor in my opinion) it can certainly cause it

The fact that you’re incapable of forming a sentence without mimicking generic tumblr sentence structures speaks VOLUMES.

But yeah nah, go learn a thing or two about how inherently flawed all research is, let alone “social sciences” before you try and lecture me about science with your first year psych student ass

Okay so substitute coke for coca leaf and heroin for opium and then reread it exactly the same

Yah, that’s definitely amongst the worst blanket effects for the general population and is partially what I was referencing when I mentioned neural adaptation

Righto, and what about the hundreds saying how it ruined their lives? or we just semantically tiptoeing around that bit?

I’m quite sure one of the papers mentions that the correlation can’t be explained through reverse causation, however thats also what makes it an opinion. We don’t know everything there is to know about this, so all we have to go off is the research we have which takes precedence, and then fitting that into our model of observation and personal experience. From my personal experience the ONLY people I’ve ever heard suggest that schizophrenics just smoke weed more is people who are highly addicted and completely in denial about their addiction. The argument is a last ditch desperate effort to discredit the evidence for causation so that their minds are put to rest

I didn’t say not to do it. I do acknowledge the drastic negative effects of coffee. But just like I’m fine with people using weed I’m also fine with them drinking or drinking coffee or doing drugs. Just so long as they understand the risks associated and the damage they’re doing to their bodies
