such a beeeaaautiful morning:D hahaha:)
i just finished reading 'I never promised you a rose garden' by Joanne Greenberg:) it's a story about a sixteen-year-old girl who 'retreats from reality into the bondage of an imaginary kingdom'...simply put, it's about this girl who had mental illness and her route to finding the real world once more:D it's very interesting... very insightful:) allows one to review oneself more too.
oh...look at this:
MARIJUANA USE LINKED TO MENTAL ILLNESS
Regular marijuana users are seven times more likely to become mentally ill, according to a study by Robin Murray, one of the world's leading authorities on mental illness. His research shows a link between long-term use of the drug and psychosis. Speaking at a Royal College of Psychiatrists' conference, Murray said: "A number of studies have confirmed that marijuana consumption acts to increase later risk of schizophrenia. This research must not be ignored." Scientists now fear widespread use of the recreational drug could lead to an epidemic of schizophrenia, Sky News reports.
