Can a woman, my sister, who had only one schizophrenic episode due to marijuana abuse (early 20s) accompanied by a suicide attempt and diagnose of bipolar when discharged from a psychiatric hospital, lead a normal life without any treatment AT ALL since? She suffered childhood traumas, today 35 years old, has always been difficult to relate emotionally unstable and accumulated several conflicted personal relationships in all aspects of her life. How likely is that a second episode will happen? She does not accept psychological help and distance herself when the family tries to help. Any advice for family members?

If you smoke pot again it certainly might come back. I would stay completely away from it if that's your risk. I've only had one episode, but it lasted an entire year, so I'm not going to risk it ever again. I'll always slip back in if I stop meds.
