Cannabis‑induced psychosis (CIP) is not just a “bad high.” It is a serious medical event linked to elevated risk of future psychotic episodes and even long‑term schizophrenia‑spectrum disorders. In Ontario, people who experience CIP have a 241‑fold higher risk of developing a schizophrenia‑spectrum disorder within three years compared to the general population.  cmaj.ca

Because of this elevated risk, ongoing support is essential, and group therapy—when facilitated by an addiction specialist—offers several unique benefits that individual therapy alone cannot provide.
