Anyway, this stuff gives me a headache. I used it because it supposedly would "grease" the mind - nowadays whenever I even smell it my brain cells shift into a slippery state going round the flashback approach to new ideas, and it's deja vu all over again. I won't say "never again" but I'm sure my head will explode if I'd really submit myself to a good ole J like I had back in the good ole days. Instead of loosening myself I'd probably end up losing myself... Further and further down the spiral!
But I think everyone has a right to experiment (or should have-). Marijuana is relatively harmless, but daily and/or excessive use is Not Healthy, quite like daily and/or excessive drinking is Not Healthy, etcetera. Just keep that in mind with whatever you like to experiment with. Oh and don't use anything and try to drive and stuff... (or worse: fly) Just in case!

Yes , I smoked weed in my youth, I quit when all it did was put me to sleep. I would smoke and just fall asleep, also there is some misinformation, you can become addicted to THC just not as bad as alcohol or crack, heroin, meth, and others, but it does have minor addictive properties (think caffeine).
Now I am for the legalization of it, but , I hear this it's a plant it's natural ect.. not all plants are good for you and like Jim I found out I have a mild allergen to certain plants, some marijuana makes my eyes and throat very irritated, I will go into sneezing fits, and get bad headaches (It's not just ganja though other plants can do that just from being near them). Lots of plants are poisonous god put em here but don't smoke em.

Lol! This is a shameful statement in my opinion... unfortunately, many ppl, mostly non users or reformed users have the impression that pro legalizers have only one agenda and that is to legalize marijuana so we can sit around and get high all day... I resent that... Number 1: I would never insinuate that you are an idiot because you believe strongly in say... Music (your drug of choice,my friend)... lets see here, do you get irritable when you cant make music for a length of time? Do you find yourself thinking about music when you aren't around it? If you were suddenly denied music would you have withdrawal symptoms? Do you make music when no one else is around?.. I rest that case... unfortunately another bad habit is to associate any negatively construed behavior associated with hard drug use with marijuana users... Like you might find me out on the street trying to give blow jobs for weed or that im pawning my tv for it... Another is that weed users are stupid... (IQ of 127 and will debate with anyone), finally I would like to give you a few of the reasons that im for legalization:
10. Prohibition has failed to control the use and domestic production of marijuana. The government has tried to use criminal penalties to prevent marijuana use for over 75 years and yet: marijuana is now used by over 25 million people annually, cannabis is currently the largest cash crop in the United States, and marijuana is grown all over the planet. Claims that marijuana prohibition is a successful policy are ludicrous and unsupported by the facts, and the idea that marijuana will soon be eliminated from America and the rest of the world is a ridiculous fantasy.
9. Arrests for marijuana possession disproportionately affect blacks and Hispanics and reinforce the perception that law enforcement is biased and prejudiced against minorities. African-Americans account for approximately 13% of the population of the United States and about 13.5% of annual marijuana users, however, blacks also account for 26% of all marijuana arrests. Recent studies have demonstrated that blacks and Hispanics account for the majority of marijuana possession arrests in New York City, primarily for smoking marijuana in public view. Law enforcement has failed to demonstrate that marijuana laws can be enforced fairly without regard to race; far too often minorities are arrested for marijuana use while white/non-Hispanic Americans face a much lower risk of arrest.
8. A regulated, legal market in marijuana would reduce marijuana sales and use among teenagers, as well as reduce their exposure to other drugs in the illegal market. The illegality of marijuana makes it more valuable than if it were legal, providing opportunities for teenagers to make easy money selling it to their friends. If the excessive profits for marijuana sales were ended through legalization there would be less incentive for teens to sell it to one another. Teenage use of alcohol and tobacco remain serious public health problems even though those drugs are legal for adults, however, the availability of alcohol and tobacco is not made even more widespread by providing kids with economic incentives to sell either one to their friends and peers.
7. Legalized marijuana would reduce the flow of money from the American economy to international criminal gangs. Marijuana's illegality makes foreign cultivation and smuggling to the United States extremely profitable, sending billions of dollars overseas in an underground economy while diverting funds from productive economic development.
6. Marijuana's legalization would simplify the development of hemp as a valuable and diverse agricultural crop in the United States, including its development as a new bio-fuel to reduce carbon emissions. Canada and European countries have managed to support legal hemp cultivation without legalizing marijuana, but in the United States opposition to legal marijuana remains the biggest obstacle to development of industrial hemp as a valuable agricultural commodity. As US energy policy continues to embrace and promote the development of bio-fuels as an alternative to oil dependency and a way to reduce carbon emissions, it is all the more important to develop industrial hemp as a bio-fuel source - especially since use of hemp stalks as a fuel source will not increase demand and prices for food, such as corn. Legalization of marijuana will greatly simplify the regulatory burden on prospective hemp cultivation in the United States.
5. Prohibition is based on lies and disinformation. Justification of marijuana's illegality increasingly requires distortions and selective uses of the scientific record, causing harm to the credibility of teachers, law enforcement officials, and scientists throughout the country. The dangers of marijuana use have been exaggerated for almost a century and the modern scientific record does not support the reefer madness predictions of the past and present. Many claims of marijuana's danger are based on old 20th century prejudices that originated in a time when science was uncertain how marijuana produced its characteristic effects. Since the cannabinoid receptor system was discovered in the late 1980s these hysterical concerns about marijuana's dangerousness have not been confirmed with modern research. Everyone agrees that marijuana, or any other drug use such as alcohol or tobacco use, is not for children. Nonetheless, adults have demonstrated over the last several decades that marijuana can be used moderately without harmful impacts to the individual or society.
4. Marijuana is not a lethal drug and is safer than alcohol. It is established scientific fact that marijuana is not toxic to humans; marijuana overdoses are nearly impossible, and marijuana is not nearly as addictive as alcohol or tobacco. It is unfair and unjust to treat marijuana users more harshly under the law than the users of alcohol or tobacco.
3. Marijuana is too expensive for our justice system and should instead be taxed to support beneficial government programs. Law enforcement has more important responsibilities than arresting 750,000 individuals a year for marijuana possession, especially given the additional justice costs of disposing of each of these cases. Marijuana arrests make justice more expensive and less efficient in the United States, wasting jail space, clogging up court systems, and diverting time of police, attorneys, judges, and corrections officials away from violent crime, the sexual abuse of children, and terrorism. Furthermore, taxation of marijuana can provide needed and generous funding of many important criminal justice and social programs.
2. Marijuana use has positive attributes, such as its medical value and use as a recreational drug with relatively mild side effects. Many people use marijuana because they have made an informed decision that it is good for them, especially Americans suffering from a variety of serious ailments. Marijuana provides relief from pain, nausea, spasticity, and other symptoms for many individuals who have not been treated successfully with conventional medications. Many American adults prefer marijuana to the use of alcohol as a mild and moderate way to relax. Americans use marijuana because they choose to, and one of the reasons for that choice is their personal observation that the drug has a relatively low dependence liability and easy-to-manage side effects. Most marijuana users develop tolerance to many of marijuana's side effects, and those who do not, choose to stop using the drug. Marijuana use is the result of informed consent in which individuals have decided that the benefits of use outweigh the risks, especially since, for most Americans, the greatest risk of using marijuana is the relatively low risk of arrest.
1. Marijuana users are determined to stand up to the injustice of marijuana probation and accomplish legalization, no matter how long or what it takes to succeed. Despite the threat of arrests and a variety of other punishments and sanctions marijuana users have persisted in their support for legalization for over a generation. They refuse to give up their long quest for justice because they believe in the fundamental values of American society. Prohibition has failed to silence marijuana users despite its best attempts over the last generation. The issue of marijuana's legalization is a persistent issue that, like marijuana, will simply not go away. Marijuana will be legalized because marijuana users will continue to fight for it until they succeed.
The most harmful thing about marijuana are the laws the govern its use... lives are ruined, families torn apart... not from the effects of marijuana but from the effects of being arrested for using or possessing marijuana... and I rest my case... just cause it wasn't right for you and you've learned to associate marijuana with the drug hazed days of your misled past, doesn't make it bad for all... some people are able to control the things they come in contact and experiment with, some are not... for those there is rehab.

Myth: Marijuana is Highly Addictive. Long term marijuana users experience physical dependence and withdrawal, and often need professional drug treatment to break their marijuana habits.
Fact: Most people who smoke marijuana smoke it only occasionally. A small minority of Americans - less than 1 percent - smoke marijuana on a daily basis. An even smaller minority develop a dependence on marijuana. Some people who smoke marijuana heavily and frequently stop without difficulty. Others seek help from drug treatment professionals. Marijuana does not cause physical dependence. If people experience withdrawal symptoms at all, they are remarkably mild.

Myth: Marijuana is More Damaging to the Lungs Than Tobacco. Marijuana smokers are at a high risk of developing lung cancer, bronchitis, and emphysema.
Fact: Moderate smoking of marijuana appears to pose minimal danger to the lungs. Like tobacco smoke, marijuana smoke contains a number of irritants and carcinogens. But marijuana users typically smoke much less often than tobacco smokers, and over time, inhale much less smoke. As a result, the risk of serious lung damage should be lower in marijuana smokers. There have been no reports of lung cancer related solely to marijuana, and in a large study presented to the American Thoracic Society in 2006, even heavy users of smoked marijuana were found not to have any increased risk of lung cancer. Unlike heavy tobacco smokers, heavy marijuana smokers exhibit no obstruction of the lung's small airway. That indicates that people will not develop emphysema from smoking marijuana.

Myth: Marijuana's Harms Have Been Proved Scientifically. In the 1960s and 1970s, many people believed that marijuana was harmless. Today we know that marijuana is much more dangerous than previously believed.
Fact: In 1972, after reviewing the scientific evidence, the National Commission on Marihuana and Drug Abuse concluded that while marijuana was not entirely safe, its dangers had been grossly overstated. Since then, researchers have conducted thousands of studies of humans, animals, and cell cultures. None reveal any findings dramatically different from those described by the National Commission in 1972. In 1995, based on thirty years of scientific research editors of the British medical journal Lancet concluded that "the smoking of cannabis, even long term, is not harmful to health."

...again, The consequences mentioned are related to hard drug use... not marijuana use. And I know you cant isolate the causes of your problems as a youth to marijuana as I happen to know you were into hard drugs back then at the same time... And again... I can appreciate your beliefs as far as I dont presume to call you ignorant of the facts even though one might be inclined to believe so... and if you dont think legalizing marijuana is of some importance then i would argue that you didnt read my post in full... But yes, of course, man... to each his own and thats all im saying... dont call us deluded because we dont believe as you believe... our reasons are our own and some of them actually are good and altruistic ones... No hard feeling, Brio...I know our friendship is stronger than a forum debate, but I still feel pressed to express that this is all in good spirits and still consider you as much a friend now as ever...
Well, ok... I can see how some could be affected that way, I find it really f*n hard to attribute 50 speeding tickets to marijuana as Im cautious driving in video games when im high, but then again... I've seen people react adversely to Nyquil so its definitely possible... And certainly, there are people who have trouble with any addictive behavior be it weed or gambling to stamp collecting, but certainly those ppl would be affected that way regardless of the substance... Im just troubled that we bought what they sold when they told us it was a hard drug... there are so many studies now that prove that those were scare tactics used back then but we still persist in believing what was said... Why is it that marijuana use goes back thousands of years into the past of many cultures with no word of its evils until the 1920's? Like suddenly we realized how evil it was? I dont think so... It served a purpose to demonize it when they did and people are still believing that shit regardless of how much truth we try to throw at it... why, because its not government backed truth? And I would like to strongly point out that the studies referred to above were not conducted by stoner scientist or anyone with a political agenda and in some cases were in fact government funded studies... I encourage anyone to actually read about this stuff instead of regurgitating propaganda (this is not in reference to you, M...) as it is so often the case...
There does seem to be some contradiction... I need more than one doctors statements... (could be biased) I prefer it when people are able to quote several long term studies put forth by several reputable sources... Again, agree to disagree... But Ive known so many pot smokers in my time... none of them were experiencing respiratory distress let alone cancer... this must be happening every where else?
hahahahaha!!!!!!!!| Even Experts Can't Agree |
| re: Even Experts Can't Agree |
That's a great link indeed.
Other than that I'd like to ask the daily user who thinks there's nothing wrong with this:
How do you describe someone who drinks daily until this someone experiences the effects of intoxication?
An alcoholic! And what do we know of alcoholism? It is unhealthy, and to be avoided.
And how does this relate to someone who smokes pot daily until this someone experiences the effects of intoxication?
Right on. One of the differences is that the one addiction gradually destroys the liver and the other gradually destroys the lungs (although not much more than normal smoking would). Both addicts are likely to suffer memory and learning disorders, distorted real-world perception, lack of energy and motivation and last but not least: bad breath.
I rest my case

Well well well.
I DO love this site......lol
Just so happens.......Michigan passed the right to grow medical maryjane in the last election. That's just across the water from me.
Now....you have to be screened & your Doc has to write a RX for it. There are only so many conditions that meet the criteria.
Just so happens..... I qualify.
Geeeeezzzzz.....couldn't have happened when I was 18. Now that I'm over the hill.......I get TOO FRIGGIN' PARANOID to enjoy the stuff.
'Course......that hasn't stopped some of my friends fro wanting to rent a little patch of land in my backyard.
& as for addiction.......I can say that a few people I know.....maybe have a problem in this area. They practice what if called "Wake & Bake". Open your eyes in the am....& spark one up.
Dunno.....I have a hard enough time making it through the day as it is......some people can handle it. I just can't anymore.
