Anything can be used as an excuse for illegally smoking marijuana. There are a few studies related to marijuana and bi-polar conditions, but I am not aware of anything conclusive that has been published.
Bipolar disorder
No, because medicinal marijuana is prescribed only for cases of terminal pain (i.e. with cancer). Marijuana doesn't alleviate any symptoms of Bipolar disorder or Schizophrenia.
Nope
Almost certainly not.
An imbalance in the naturally occurring neurotransmitters in the brain
in and of itself no. however there are somewhat more cases of bipolar disorder that appear in the years following puberty than in the years before puberty.
Bipolar disorder does not cause other disorders. However, people with bipolar disorder have an increased risk of simultaneously having or developing other mental disorders or substance dependence problems.
Overindulgence in activities or substances can exacerbate symptoms of bipolar disorder but is not a direct cause of the condition itself. Bipolar disorder is primarily influenced by genetic, neurobiological, and environmental factors. However, excessive indulgence can lead to mood swings and destabilization in individuals already predisposed to the disorder, potentially triggering episodes. It's important for those with bipolar disorder to manage their lifestyle choices to maintain stability.
It can cause a whole lot more than just biploar disorder. That stuff will mess you up for life.
With the exception of Antisocial Personality Disorder, Bipolar Disorder is the mental illness most commonly associated with alcoholism. Over 40% of individuals with Bipolar 1 have a history of alcohol abuse.Basically, Bipolar Disorder and alcoholism tend to go hand in hand. Being Bipolar can cause increased mood swings in alcoholics.
Extremely doubtful, unless the trauma produced anxiety or insecurity, which are bipolar triggers.
