Answer: THC, the euphoriant component of marijuana, has psychotic-induced effects, whereas another component, CBD, has antipsychotic effects. One problem is that the relative content of these ingredients has changed over the last 20 years. The amount of THC has increased whereas the amount of CBD has decreased. Several recent studies suggest that cannabis use increases the risk of developing psychosis.
