[QUOTE="Littleboylost, post: 725914, member: 21895"] AK Annie I have to tell you our sones behaviour was so irradic and off the wall that even as a nurse being told his behaviour was most likely drug related; I could have sworn he had MH issues. We had him going to a family therapist when his troubling behaviour began and he had full comprehensive testing done with now signs of any issues. Also our therapist reminded us that his erratic behaviour was not president before his drug use began. There are many studies that prove drug use can cause psychotic behaviours, this included pot. No diagnosis is made for MH disorders unless a person is clear of all drugs for a min period of 3 months. My son often tries to convince people that he has many ailments that no prescription drug can help him overcome. Surprise surprise only pot helps him. When I explain to him pot used medicinally for the ailments he claims to have ishigg in CBD and and has often no THC he continues to justify his need for pot. And of course pot is new the reason he can’t get out of bed, make effort to do well in school or maintain a job. Even many true sufferers of MH disorders and substance abuse have far fewer symptoms and issues when they are free from illegal drugs. I do not know about your prison systems. But ours are well equipped with medical, MH and addiction support services. Ther are also ways to access illicit drugs. It all comes down to a matter of choice. In my province in Canada we do not have court mandated rehab. We were very fortunate to have the courts allow for my sons release to attend a long term intensive rehab program. If he does not go or does not stay in the program he will be sentenced and go to prison. Choices are his to make. [/QUOTE]
