    Does anyone know of any studies that prove that it is or isn't negative or positive over long periods of time. The only studies I can find only mention short term memory.

    Yup, it doesn't. And now that I've been vamping exclusively I find it doesn't even hurt short term memory much. I study blazed and write my tests sober and remember everything perfectly :smoke:

    I think it primarily affects short term never heard of it effecting long term.

    There's a lot more. Go to a library or use a search engine maybe?

    Long story short: There is no apparent impairment of long term memory. Short term memory impairment is more pronounced in adolescent (pre age ~20) brains and can last longer. That's why kids shouldn't smoke. No matter how many do well in school despite it, for the most part they aren't doing their brains favors. If I had it to do over again I wouldn't have smoked until I was grown.
