Alex Berenson, in his recent book: Tell Your Children the Truth About Marijuana, Mental Illness, and Violence, reported data from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration in 2017 showing that about 2.5 million young adults met the criteria for serious mental illness, a rise of more than 25% from the previous year and double the rate in 2008. Among adults not using cannabis, fewer than 4% met the criteria for serious mental illness, and 13% for other mental illness. In contrast, about 10% of all cannabis-using adults over 18 met the criteria for serious mental illness, and another 25% met the criteria for less severe conditions. Is the increase of problems among cannabis users due to a causal relationship between cannabis use and mental illness?
