I support the legality of cannabis and alcohol.

However, on an individual level, I think people need to know about the psychosis risks. It undoubtedly can trigger schizophrenia and make it much worse once it exists.

I know more than a few people who have severe alcoholism problems in their families, and just chose to never drink alcohol. I think a similar choice may be wise for cannabis if there is a history of psychosis.

On a public health level there was a theory that people would substitute cannabis for alcohol. But unfortunately, this doesn't seem to be bearing out.
