"It's Just Pot - What's The Problem?" - Every Brain Matters Podcast

Daniel E. Buffington PharmD, MBA, Clinical Pharmacology Services, Inc & American Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences discusses with Bryn Spejcher and the Every Brain Matters community how he concluded Bryn experiences cannabis-induced psychosis the night she took her friends life and almost took her life. Dr, Buffington has over 35 years of experience as an expert witness in health care law pertaining to Clinical and Forensic Pharmacology and Toxicology and health care practice management. One evening in Thousand Oaks, California, life took a tragic turn after Bryn started her career as a Doctor of Audiology at UCLA. Bryn experimented with cannabis, unaware of its potential dangers. Unbeknownst to her, she inhaled a large hit of highly potent THC, which triggered a rapid descent into psychosis. In her altered state, her perception of reality was severely distorted, leading her to react to intense hallucinations. In a frantic attempt of fear, Bryn grabbed a kitchen knife, resulting in violence toward her dog, her friend Chad, and herself. When the police arrived, Bryn could not respond to the police commands; she was only responding to the internal commands, the voices in her head that instructed her to keep going. The court later ruled the incident as involuntary manslaughter, recognizing that cannabis-induced psychosis caused this tragic event. This heartbreaking story serves as a stark reminder of the potential dangers of cannabis use; it proves that a single use of cannabis can come to such a horrific end. Every Brain Matters extends its heartfelt sympathy to the friends and family of Chad O'Melia and Bryn Spejcher. Had either Chad or Bryn known this could happen from only using THC, this tragedy could have been prevented. This story proves that we need more awareness about the harms of cannabis use.To schedule a presentation from Bryn and learn more about cannabis-induced psychosis, CIP contact us at info@everybrainmatters.orgVisit https://everybrainmatters.orgLearn more about cannabis linked to violencehttps://everybrainmatters.org/thc-psychosis-and-violence/https://everybrainmatters.org/cannabis-science/marijuana-violence/Support the show@EveryBrainMatters

A mother describes how her teenage son became addicted and psychotic from "industrialized marijuana" which are products approved by the federal government through the 2018 Farm bill and products that are approved from state's like California and Colorado. The expansion of marijuana and other drugs has overwhelmed our communities and become a regular part of our culture. This new age of industrialized THC allows predatory practices and well-funded campaigns to target vulnerable populations with minimal accountability. Our neighborhoods and schools are becoming unsafe. Families are under-educated and have minimal tools and resources to prevent, manage, or recover from the impacts of cannabis addiction, psychosis, toxicity, and other mental challenges that come from using these products. Our legislators consistently hear from drug advocates and lobbyists, and they do not hear enough from us.If you want to change this, we invite you to JOIN US.

The 2018 Farm Bill legalized hemp products, which legalized CBD. The Hemp industry is converting CBD to variants of THC, like Delta-8 and THC-O.  These products are being sold in Gas Stations, Dollar Stores, and Smoke Shops across the nation. They are dangerous, addictive, and just like the THC in the cannabis/marijuana plant they can cause episodes of psychosis and increase the risk for suicide.

They didn't know their son was using marijuana until just a few hours before his death.   Listen as these parents plea to the public to get educated on the true effects of marijuana use and for states to actually test for marijuana in toxicology reports.The police reported a very strong order of marijuana in their son's car after he died, but these parents had to repeal the results of their son's toxicology report 3 times before the Corenor would test for the presence of marijuana. The results came back as marijuana intoxication because high levels of marijuana were found in their son's system at the time of his death.Join the Every Brain Matters community of support, advocacy, and science as we call for a cultural change with the widespread use of the EBM merchandise that unites us and promotes optimal brain and environmental health.
