Doing drugs will highly increase Tony's risk of developing schizophrenia. Many studies have rated the use of marijuana (cannabis) with those individuals who have a likelihood of developing schizophrenia. More often than not it has been shown that there is a positive correlation between the use of the street drug and the mental illness.
