Attention is called to the fact that on this continent heavy smokers have not yet been separated as "problem" users from other smokers.A comprehensive review of possible psychological adverse effects of the drug is made. The following classification is suggested: a) Severe intoxications, b) Pathological intoxications, c) Acute cannabis psychoses, d) Subacute and chronic cannabis psychoses and e) Residual conditions.
本文强调有必要尽早对北美“异常”大麻吸食者进行定义和描述。需要注意的是,在这块大陆上,重度吸食者尚未从其他吸食者中被区分出来作为“问题”使用者。本文对该药物可能产生的心理不良反应进行了全面综述。建议采用以下分类:a) 重度中毒,b) 病理性中毒,c) 急性大麻精神病,d) 亚急性和慢性大麻精神病,以及e) 残留状况。
