Current Events > Is it true that weed side affects are mainly hungry, happy, and sleepy?

(+) Yeah! (+)

If so, why is it illegal. And why do some say it may cure cancer

People who smoke a lot of weed generally have bad short term memory. I believe some studies have actually confirmed this.

Everything said so far, from what Ive heard, is true.

I always get anxiety when I smoke

I can agree with this.

I will say why

I left work, and got some gas (no pun intended. car gas) because I was truly on E. About 5 minutes into my drive I look at my gas, and go "wtf is my meter broken? I haven't gotten gas yet. Why is the meter higher?"

SMH

The psychological addiction is a bitch too. A month of no sleep is brutal.

Which is why if I do it I do it sparingly. It was fucking awful and I never want to go through that shit again. God damn being a chimney in college.

Psychologically addicting and memory loss are definite negatives. Still probably better than habitual drinking, but yeah.

One of my best friends cant remember shit ever and smokes multiple times a day.

Side effects grant cancer and impairs the ability to drive. No one should ever touch the shit.

What does psycho addiction do?

Old politicians that grew up with propaganda like reefer madness refusing to get with the times. That's changing slowly but surely though

^ It really depends on the person. I experienced no side effects whatsoever when I quit cold turkey years ago

I'd say more Lazy than sleepy, but Lazy AF; thats why I can't stand potheads.

Illegal because hemp was threatening the paper industry. With any substance it can get dangerous with abuse or coupled with poor decision making. Since it impairs cognitive function to some degree, common sense would says that you shouldn't operate heavy machinery but stupid people will still do stupid things.

My friend is 28 and just takes dabs all day. He pays for it with his allowance lmao. Anyways, he finally got a job after a few years and had to leave mid application to grab his social security card cuz he couldnt remember it. Maybe hes just a dumbass though.

Lower back pain, no sleep, and anxiety, at least thats what affected me. Anxiety took a week to go away, lower back pain took two weeks, and no sleep took a month. Id sleep three hours a night for a week, then every week Id get like an extra hour of sleep until after a month I slept normally. Also, you get cold sweats constantly throughout the night. Its rough. Anyone that says weed is harmless is ignorant, I speak from experience and Im pro-legalization.

I dont know, I smoked 3-4 times a day in college, earned a double major in molecular bio/chem in undergrad in four years with a 3.2 GPA. I studied on the shit. He may just be dumb.

many factors. strand, potency. also how your body reacts to it and other conditions of your health status.

no one's the same. some people get anxiety every time, some people only once in a while, some never. some people never get munchies or sleepy, either.

it can definitely vary, just like 'being drunk' can vary between sleepy or loud or whatever depending on many factors.

It has some downsides but alcohol and opiates are so, so much worse.

Same with any other veggies or fruits you grow.

Yeah I used to smoke and shit going to school but now that I have a career its a weekend thing at best. My bro is getting an allowance tho so I guess he know the answer to that question.

There are plant limits though. Im willing to bet most will take the convenience and just go to the club. Same reason people generally dont roll their own cigs, its way too accessible not to just buy a pack.

*damn my phone is bugging out

@Cornmuffins
Yep. It's not addicting and it's usually for shits and giggles. Probably once like every 3 weeks to months without doing it.

I did get paranoid the first few times. Now it's just laughing at random stuff because the world made some sense and I found out that doing any errands go by quickly and very interesting.
