Unfortunately, the answer to your question is “yes.” A report issued May 4, 2023, by the Mental Health Services in Denmark and the National Institutes on Drug Abuse (NIDA) at NIH in the USA was published in the journal Psychological Medicine. The study involved data from 6 million individuals spanning five decades.

Treatments are available for both cannabis use disorder—defined as using cannabis daily or very frequently—and for schizophrenia. More tomorrow.
