This film by Johnny’s Ambassadors offers a candid and intimate look at cannabis-induced psychosis through the eyes of young people who lived it, revealing the silent epidemic that’s tearing apart families, and the long path to recovery. This film is appropriate for adults, as well as middle and high school students.

This 45-minute film is FREE to show from this page. You have explicit, blanket permission to show it in any public setting without specific approval from Johnny’s Ambassadors. Audience Q&A are below for screenings in your community, moderated by a clinician or community coalition. Add a panel discussion with local law enforcement, medical professionals, school personnel, and therapists to discuss their experiences with youth THC use in their areas.

Cannabis-Induced Psychosis: A Silent Epidemic documentary pulls back the curtain on a crisis that too often goes unnamed. Told through the voices of young people who’ve lived through psychosis and the parents who tried to hold them together, the film offers an unflinching look at how high-potency THC can fracture lives and upend futures. Families walk us through the hardest moments of their lives as they watch their kids unravel, search for help, and face a system with few answers. Doctors offer clinical insight, while the young people themselves reflect on what it felt like to lose touch with reality and how they found their way back. This film is provided by the nonprofit, Johnny’s Ambassadors, as a community service to raise public awareness of the dangers of youth THC use.
