Parents of Children with Cannabis-Induced Psychosis (CIP) – Episode 9: Our Son is Missing & Homeless

My son was a bright, kind, athletic, hard-working, compassionate, and caring young man. In college, he started vaping high potency THC cannabis products. Soon, he wouldn’t leave his dorm room or attend classes, he withdrew from friends and family, and he started experiencing delusions and paranoia.… Read the rest

Parents of Children with Cannabis-Induced Psychosis (CIP) – Episode 8: The Damage is Done

My name is Jennifer Kelchner, and my 27-year-old son is, hopefully, healing from cannabis-induced psychosis.

Danny was once a blessing. He had a loving home — a mom, a dad, two sets of doting grandparents. At four years old, he could locate every country on a map.… Read the rest

Parents of Children with Cannabis-Induced Psychosis (CIP) – Episode 7: It was Like a Switch Flipped

Let’s talk about Cannabis-Induced Psychosis. Many people say, “It’s only weed. It’s harmless!” Three years ago, I believed that too. I didn’t know the marijuana industry had re-engineered the plant to be super potent. In my day, weed had 2 to 3% THC, which is the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana.… Read the rest

Parents of Children with Cannabis-Induced Psychosis (CIP) – Episode 6: My Son was Deceived

When the Farm Bill of 2018 passed, the predatory addiction-for-profit industry used a loophole that allowed them to create psychoactive THC products from hemp. The industry markets these products as legal, natural, and safe to treat many ailments, even though they have not been FDA approved.… Read the rest

Parents of Children with Cannabis-Induced Psychosis (CIP) – Episode 5: He is NOT the Same Person

Have you ever heard of Cannabis Induced Psychosis? Until 2 years ago, I had not. THC, the main psychoactive ingredient in cannabis, caused devastating effects for our family. And I want you to become more educated about it, so you can avoid the same problem.… Read the rest

Parents of Children with Cannabis-Induced Psychosis (CIP) – Episode 4: We Were Absolutely Blindsided

Hi, I’m here to speak to you, parent to parent, about our family’s story with THC.

When my son developed severe cannabis use disorder at 18 and cannabis-induced psychosis at 21, we were absolutely blindsided. We didn’t have the science, education, or resources that exist today and had no idea how addictive THC is.… Read the rest

Parents of Children with Cannabis-Induced Psychosis (CIP) – Episode 3: CIP Has Devastated our Lives

In 2018 I celebrated the graduation of my first-born son, who was an Eagle Scout and honors student. Little did I know, he had begun using marijuana to deal with his social anxiety as he entered college.

When he came home for Thanksgiving break his sophomore year, I noticed changes in his behavior.… Read the rest

Parents of Children with Cannabis-Induced Psychosis (CIP) – Episode 2: A Truly Horrible Drug

I knew weed wasn’t good for the brain. I was never interested in it, nor wanted any of my children to use it. But until three months ago, I had no idea how truly horrible this drug was.

My 18-year-old son used to be social, funny, outgoing, and a fabulous athlete, until a friend at school gave him a THC vape.… Read the rest

Parents of Children with Cannabis-Induced Psychosis (CIP) – Episode 1: He is a Different Boy

“Your son has Cannabis-Induced Psychosis,” said my son’s psychologist. That was in 2021, just two weeks before his 18th birthday, during his senior year in high school.

His initial symptoms were delusions of grandeur. He was going to change to world with his music because of the special vibrations in his hands, which he covered with a glove.… Read the rest
