Anyone that still thinks marijuana kills brain cells is tripping balls.Health Question & Answer

I smoke weed everyday and I have the highest grades in all my classes and I go to school high ALOT. When Im high everything is slower and I have more time to react and think about things. It makes everything better. It fixes headaches, nausea, and alot of other things.

Weed does affect memory, but only while the THC is in your system. Contrary to popular belief, it does not cause long term effects. THC does not cause cancer, in some cases it can stop or slow the progression of cancer and tumors.

When you're high, you're in a better mood, you dont want to fight or cause problems.
The only really bad physical effect is lung problems and that only if you smoke it, if you eat it Ina brownie There are almost no harmful effects. THC does not kill brain cells, that only happens when you smoke it and hold in your hit(you're not getting oxygen to the brain) But smoking is alot quicker and easier. I chose to take those risks and thats my decsion.

Some arguments against it are the side effects, but there are legal perscription drugs that have much worse effects and yet people can go out and get them.

Alot of people are afraid of drugs and thats where all the negative stereotypes about drugs come from.

This has been debated for decades. Here are the raw facts and I am not lying about the bad things because I smoke weed so I;m not one of those people against it.

Marijuana smoke is very damaging to your lungs.

THC kills brain cells.

Marijuana has positive effects if inhaled via a vaporizer, thus eliminating the harmful effects of the hot smoke.

And marijuana does make you stupid, it take a while but you become lazy so you aren;t really becoming less intelligent but you just don't care.

It should be legal is alcohol is legal because alcohol is much more poisonous, the reason it is illegal has also been debated but it likely has to do with some body making a lot of money.Health Question & Answer

I used to smoke weed many times a day.. Then got sent to rehab for heroin and had to quit ALL drugs. Well, I was one who always thought weed was harmless too. Suprise, suprise. It is not. There are so many downfalls to this drug. Did you know that smoking 1 or 3 (i forgot the exact number) joints is equal to smoking 20 cigarettes.? Its true. Do research on the web (make sure your not on a pro-marijuana site) and you will get the truth. Believe it or not, there is more carcinogens in weed, as well as tar, than in cigarettes. It damages your short term memory, and over time it will damage long term as well. ANY time you are inhaling smoke, you are damaging your body. And as for weed VS. cigarettes, think about it. Weed you dont use a filter, and cigarettes you do. also, smoking out of a bong is no more healthier than smoking out of a pipe. The only thing it does it cool the smoke so it is less harsh on your throat. Marijuana DOES cause cancer.

Why people say marijuana makes your stupid-
It decresases blood flow in your brain, making some areas not function anymore. So, when your brain wants to send a message (as a movement, thought, or something else) to another part of your brain, it has to go around these spots, making it take more time to get the message sent to the part of the brain it is being sent to. This is what causes the delayed thinking (EX.en someone asks a stoner a math question and you get a 'uhhhhhhhhhhhh... 4!')

You must have a serious conversation with your dad and explain to him, i say prepare a LONG list of real FACTS, and also Facts that explain why or arguements against propaganda... basically you must deucate YOURSELF first to be able to explain it well to him.

Hope he sees through, and you show him the way!Health Question & Answer

heres afact marijuana does not affect the lungs majorly of course bringing smoke in is never good for you but not as bad as youd think...
my friend is a cross country runner and his personal record is 15:47 seconds for a 3.1 mile course... he smokes... someone please tell me how its bad for your lungs.? someone.? anyone.? yeah thats what i thought...
the only reason why its banned is because you cannot lace a tax on it... and the govt doesnt want people running around wasted so i think its perfectly reasonable to be illegal... still doesnt mean you shouldnt do it lolHealth Question & Answer
