Background: The aim of this paper is to assess the mental health system in Brazil in relation to the human resources and the services available to the population.

We present the course of a mania most likely induced by cannabis in a young cannabis-dependent patient, but apart from this, healthy male adult. Mania developed in parallel to increasing cannabis inhalation and remitted quickly and completely within one week of abstinence without any antimanic medication in a protective inpatient setting. Simultaneously, the THC-COOH level decreased in serum and urine.
