Dude I don't get how you can be in any medical or phsycu field and be so nieve and uneducated on cannabis.

"Hope you don't smoke it and it fucks you up".

Lord.thats your answer to every time legalization or medical cannabis is spoke about.

It has it's place, temporary anxiety is a acute short lived side effect.

We have alcohol and tobacco legal.

Both will 100% without a doubt kill you with regular consumption over time.

Both will produce violent withdrawal and possibly violent behavior during withdrawal.

Alcohol withdrawal can kill you. One if the few substances out there that stopping usage will kill you.

Heroin withdrawal won't even kill you.

We have opiates being used when medically deemed necessary, side effects are terrible if not used to them

Vomiting
Agression.

But the benifit of these drugs out weight the risk

So consuming some cannabis may make you paranoid for a half hour or so.

I know you say you've treated people who have terrible episodes after using cannabis. But these people I guarantee are already on anti psychotics, depression, or anxiety drugs and have underlying mental disorders. One of the classic symptoms of mental disorders is placing blame on anyone bor anything other than taking responsibility for ones actions. It's always someone else's fault.

Cannabis seems to be a perfect scape goat to blame for some nut cases irrational behavior.
