Early smoking causes brain damage?

Discussion in 'Apprentice Marijuana Consumption' started by DanKnStickyy, Jul 19, 2011.

    I was just watching "Drugged: High on marijuana" And it stated if you start smoking before the age of 16 that you are alot more likely to come across brain damage and or problems that are brain related.

    That statement kind of got me a little sketched out because I started at the age of 14 I believe.

    What are your thoughts?

    thanks I was looking for something to put on in the background...

    and I haven't watched it yet, but my thoughts would be smoking anything, especially when your body is still developing (<18yrs for the most part) isn't a good thing. Brains especially are still developing until your 20s.

    Thanks for the opinion. I just hope this doesn't effect me greatly because of my poor habits when I was younger.

    What development would it effect? And how would it effect it?

    ingesting anything psychoactive before 25 is bad for development, but its not gonna make you retarded or some shit. dont ever get worked up over any propaganda, its all bullshit
