Ep. 231 - Cannabis Use and Psychosis - The MultiDimensional MD

For today's podcast episode, I thought I would talk about a topic that has been on my mind for the last several years: psychosis and cannabis use. 

This is an area that is known in the medical literature but not widely reported. Because of the increase in mental health issues, I thought I would talk about psychosis and cannabis use as a public service announcement. 

I'll be going over the following questions:

What is cannabis?

What is psychosis vs schizophrenia?

What is cannabis used for medically?

How has it changed over the years?

What is the risk of cannabis use and psychosis?

What is the physiology behind cannabis use and psychosis?

How do you to talk to kids and teens about cannabis use?
