Episode Details

A mother is desperately warning other parents after her 15-year-old son, Max, was hospitalized with psychosis she blames on vaping THC-laced vapes. Max, who spent weeks obsessively using the vapes—costing him $100 a week from odd jobs—stopped eating and sleeping. Within two weeks, he was taken to the hospital under the Mental Health Act after being found outside at night. Tests confirmed THC in his system, and doctors linked it to his mental breakdown. The situation spiraled when Max became violent in seclusion, allegedly ripping a sink from the wall. His mom fears the vapes may have contained even more dangerous synthetic cannabinoids, and warns of possible lifelong mental health damage. Max will need medication for up to two years—and she’s now sounding the alarm to prevent other teens from suffering the same fate.
