Friend experiencing severe mental issues
My friend who was diagnosed with manic depression recently faced a complete breakdown. He is mumbling incoherently, getting aggressive and cannot function normally. He has been a regular user of weed. The doctor he is seeing right now seems to think that his mental state was caused by weed and that he has psychosis. Is this a logical conclusion?
Yes may be,because the weed is a hallucinating agent,Better continue with psychiatrist and take psychiatric medicine.
Deaddiction needs self awareness. So,consult a counselling psychologist for better management of the case.
