It has been suggested that marijuana is at the root of many mental disorders, including acute toxic
psychosis, panic attacks (one of the very conditions it is being used experimentally to treat), flashbacks, delusions, depersonalization, hallucinations, paranoia, depression, and uncontrollable aggressiveness.
