    as someone else may have stated. certain drugs can't "make" you become something. the problems are usually underlying and only are brought to the surface after drug use.

    but yes i would classify marijuana a drug because it alters "reality". but in no way would i classify it the same as certain other drugs like meth or heroin.

    i think its not a question of it being a drug or not because eaither way the majority of people smoking it are probly doing some other drug so in the end we are all druggies.

    I'm pretty high right now

    So yes, marijuana is indeed a drug.

    Very fun research into this.

    for everyone who's been saying the whole "oh it's natural it comes from the earth and everything that comes from the earth is good", how would you explain datura?

    that comes from the earth.


    =/ i'm not saying that pot is bad, but you can't just automatically assume something is good just because it grows in the ground, and you certainly can't use it being natural as an excuse to not classify it as a drug.

    Yeah, it's a drug. A sweet, benevolent drug.

    I think you might be an an idiot, not a joker. I don't have schizophrenia, but I do know people who have had serious mental problems, inculding schizophrenia, from smoking too much pot.

    Weed is a drug but it does not have the negative side effects like many other drugs. Mushrooms are all natural and are a drug as well.

    I disagree. There are negative effects. People with addiction problems will have trouble kicking the mental addiction. It gave me trouble in all areas of my life for 2 years. It took 3 months of NA and realizing that we are all in control of ourselves. Substance abuse is not a disease. When you are abusing any drug, you are in total lack of control of your actions. I listened to people who would say that they had drugs in front of them and they did them because they couldn't help it after 6-9 months of sobriety. That was the last NA meeting I ever went to. I realized that people in NA have no discipline and if they don't have that for drugs, what's keeping them in check for anything else they do. Bottom line: You are in control of your own life. Making the right choices is crucial.

    Drug is an ambiguous term meant to propell stereotypes. It is a plant.

    I said without the negative side effects of many drugs meaning chemically addictive qualities. There i no doubt it has negative effects like everything else.

    I believe the same people who abuse marijuana or are "addicted" to it are the same ones who are "addicted" to video games or porn. IT is an addictive personality.

    For those that believe that tetrahydrocannabinol is not a drug, I put my nose up at you!

    well technically i guess but not in the way that coke or heroin and alcohol and stuff are. in my opinion you cant classify it as a stimulant or depressant, its an original high, and there is mroe to smoking weed to me than just getting high or "fucked up".

    Pot is nice. Like ice. So put some ice in that bong and let it cool your lungs!
