going to throw it out there... anyone smoke pot or know...

does it really make you more depressed?

I used to smoke it as a teen and it made me happy and giggly. FF 10 years and the THC content went through the roof and I had a major psychotic episode (on a third of a ready rolled joint bought in NL) - 3 weeks of my life lost and it took 4 years to re-build the pieces and convince myself that my reality was real. I tried again 8 weeks later, one puff and another week lost of my life.

I suspect that the inquiry would probably have been to the public health team (part of all PCTs) to do some research - most likely a review or literature search rather than original research. It's the sort of thing we were asked to find out more about when I used to work in public health - all sorts of one off requests came through from the acutes, on effectiveness, impact etc.
