Let's look at the percentage in terms of how cannabis use is being used, the way that it's being ingested, if you will, or taken in drinking it- water, pipe, e-cigarette or vaporizer in the form of a blunt. However, if you consume it in some type of edible gummy, berry, chocolate or if you drink it it's infused into something, the effect on the brain shows up in about minutes to hours.
Ever wondered how cannabis legalization affects mental health? In this episode of 'TALK with Timmy G', TimmyG tackles the multifaceted world of cannabis. He sifts through recent news articles, shares facts from Dr. Deji Ayonrinde's eye-opening presentation on 'Cannabis and the Adolescent Brain', and reflects on a documentary titled 'Chronic State', which examines Colorado's experience five years post-legalization. Dr.
Ayonrinde, an associate professor at Queen's University, offers his expertise on marijuana's mental health implications and introduces listeners to the early intervention psychosis program he leads. The episode doesn't stop there; TimmyG also highlights the Mindwell Support Group, a valuable resource for those grappling with mental health challenges. Personal anecdotes, like a touching story of helping a homeless woman, add a human touch to the episode.
Ending with a provocative question about society's unmet emotional and spiritual needs, this episode is both informative and heartfelt. Whether you're curious about cannabis or seeking support for mental health issues, TimmyG provides a balanced and engaging perspective.
