If someone has a pot license or prescription in Florida, does that mean they can fire up a "prescription joint" and smoke it in public? LOL

While at the Christmas Parade this year, the smell of pot was wafting in the air.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill that makes smokable medical marijuana legal in Florida. However, qualified patients may have to wait a bit before they are prescribed a smokable form. The new law is effective immediately, but the Florida health department must create guidelines for doctors who are planning to prescribe smokable medical marijuana. Until then, smokable pot won't be available for patients.

Pot linked to psychosis & schizophrenia

He was a shell of the once all-star baseball player.

Psychiatrist Dr. Divya Jot Singh at Banner Behavioral Health Hospital diagnosed McIntosh with cannabis use disorder and a "psychotic disorder unspecified.”

Dr. Singh expects to make McIntosh’s diagnosis official. If McIntosh remains off pot and symptom-free a year after the episode, the psychiatrist can say with certainty he suffered from “cannabis-induced psychosis.”

"What shocked me is that…”
