I never said it was caused by smoking weed or dropping acid. I said (or meant at least) that smoking weed or dropping acid can increase the chances of you getting schizophrenia. I know someone who has an uncle in a mental hospital because, why trying to smuggle acid in the states, accidentally took over 100 hits at one time. I would be extremely surprised if there is no connection between hallucinogenics and schizophrenia.

Funny you bring that up. I actually have residual visual effects from taking a single hit of acid. Its not bad, just minor trails behind moving objects, but even something that small can fuck you up for a few months. All strong hallucinogenics are double edged swords. They can potentially have a strong influence in your life but they can also have some very strong, and many times permanent, consequences. True definition of risk.

I couldn't imagine getting something as bad as HPPD.
