The health impacts of marijuana are currently the subject of
significant public debate. Past data have suggested a link to numerous
mental health outcomes including substance use disorders (SUDs), mood
disorders, and anxiety, although whether marijuana use actually causes
these conditions, or just shares common contributing factors, has been
difficult to specify. A new study used data on nearly 35,000
participants in two waves (2001-2002 and 2004-2005) of the longitudinal
National Epidemiological Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions, to
prospectively examine associations between marijuana use and various
mental health outcomes.
Like earlier studies, unadjusted analyses of the
data found marijuana use to be associated with a wide range of
psychiatric disorders; but after adjusting for common underlying factors
that predict marijuana use (such as age and other sociodemographic
characteristics), the only associations with marijuana use that remained
significant across all analyses were SUDs—including alcohol use,
nicotine dependence, cannabis use disorder, and other drug use
disorders.
