what are negative effects of weed?

Discussion in 'Experienced Cannabis Enthusiasts' started by timbs, Feb 26, 2005.

  1. Is there any truth to the messages the anti-drug organizations send? Obviously some are true like short term memory loss and slowed reactions, but about loss of motivation and loss of brain cells? Sorry, I know this isn't a fun topic to discuss, but it's something I'd really like more info on.
     
  2. damn my bad I thought i could add another sentence before it went through
     
  3. THE NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF pot you say? il tell you a negative effect.. the people who don't use it make anti drug commercials and become republicans and shit... i do know some pretty chill republicans though hmmm i take that statment back.. but il have you know it does make your appreciate the color green a bit more.. that was a hard one for me :smoke:
     
  4. Youll kill some brain cells from holding it in; so technically if you arent a bitch that just blows it out yeah it does kill brain cells.:)
     
  5. well when u smoke weed, u get tar in the ol' lungs too, that isnt very good for u
     
  6. the only problem i see in smokin MJ is the tar
     
  7. It turns you into a lizard!
     
  8. dude, you lose brain cells by hittin your head, and you do that at least once a week (prolly) and if you smoke tow times aweek, i mean shit happens, brain cells die all the time. so uhhh yah tar is bad, but its better than being sober...

    peace

    jeff
     
  9. You feel good.
     
  10. you sleep. is that bad? i like it. yeah. it kills some brain cells. so does alot of things. it hurts your lungs a bit. but hell, your not gonna live forever anyway.
     
  11. See, there are so many descrepancies (spelling?). Erowid.org says that it doesn't kill brain cells, but most people here are saying that it does. Wtf?
     
  12. erowids probably right. formulate your own opinions. smoke some for yourself and see.
     
  13. I smoke heavy weed, and oen of my friends who smokes as much weed as I do, went to college, and went through withdrawal of not being able to eat and puking and being sick..

    it has some effect on the body.. but its mostly due to tolerancy and buildup... that's why its a drug... and a awesome one at that :)
     
  14. It probably does. Most people are saying that lots of things do. Chances are you lose more brain cells from holding your breath(what I said). I can tell you right now if you smoke weed on weekends youll only loose some of your coordination during and feel sleepy later, thats about it.

    If it makes you feel good and everything is 1000s times funnier then what the hell. You like to laugh, dont you?
     

  15. that's what I was going to say. lol



    And NO IT DOES NOT kill brain cells. There was a study done in the seventies that said it did, but that experiment was condemned by the scientific community for poor control practices and "monkey abuse." Subsequent attempts to repeat experiment have all resulted in the conclusion the marijuana kills no brain cells.
     
  16. Oh no!!! I feel it coming! Ahh!!! Psychosis!!!
     
  17. the tar is probably the worst part IMO... and STML sucks but after afew years you just learn to live with it... i dont remember when it was (erowid i think) something about how marijuana smoke helps release some of the toxins and radioactive elements of tobacco smoke from the lungs... (tobacco constrics the bronchi, marijuana dialates)

    i dunmo, i found the article... read it yourself :p
