Growing up in a bad neighbourhood is worse.

Being physically or mentally abused is worse.

So you're telling me that a natural plant, easily grown anywhere in the world is a fucking problem when it comes to mental health?

You have to be mentally ill to not see what living in the west can do to you. I believe the term is called western cancer.

Opium a natural plant.

They forget to add "Study paid for by the US Government as a means to scare the populace".

[OhJstFkOffAlrdy]

Like we need the government for that. The populace is exceedingly efficient at scaring itself.

Really, this shouldn't scare anyone. It's information and nothing more; and anyone who didn't already have a hunch that introducing foreign compounds into a developing brain will have negative effects probably just didn't think about it enough to begin with. It's just plain 1st-world common sense.
