When the seagulls follow the trawler it is because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea.

I think he will give you the lemon, no charge. Imagine if we had a curry-dish with curry, nuts and bananas, he would charge for the bananas...? 🙂

He may be a very shrewd business man. 😉

Actually the gulls are looking for the insides of the fish the fisherman clean on deck which they eat, obviously you have never been on a fishing trawler. 🙂

Have you ever seen a sardine?

Cannabis-induced psychotic symptoms are rare but very serious. Experiencing psychosis with marijuana use is more likely in people who already struggle with some type of psychiatric disorder. Marijuana use may contribute to the onset of schizophrenia in young people already susceptible to the psychotic condition.

I didn't win lotto and very few people do. I never had a ...[text shortened]... e to be. I am smart, I replaced the drugs that the government robs me of with my own choice of drug.

Drugs aren't prescribed by the 'government' but by qualified medical professionals who don't prescribe them out of spite but to help the people diagnosed with mental health conditions.

And I don't want to get into your particular case, other than to say a great many people diagnosed with schizophrenia and other mental health conditions lack insight into their own mental health and believe they have been wrongly diagnosed. (Perhaps some have, but I'll borrow your 'rare' classification here).

Not all people who use cannabis with trigger an onset of schizophrenia, that's true, but it is something I have seen often enough to warn against the risk. (As the damage caused is permanent and life destroying). Self medicating in this way is not smart.

Sure, cannabis can elevate mood, but it can also exacerbate mental health symptoms, especially the longer you smoke it.

Your life sir, but would advise weaning yourself off.

Over the past year I have smoked over $200 worth a week. 1/2 an ounce plus tins. I watch the mental distortion and ill effects of schizophrenia medications fade away.

Schizophrenia itself causes the mental distortions. Medication is the treatment, not the cause. - It's like having a headache and taking a paracetamol, and then blaming the symptoms of the headache on the tablet you've taken.

But yes, all medications have possible side effects.
