Cannabis pros and cons

I know sum friends that are into smoking it and i just wondered what are the arguments for and against it. I know already that it is damaging to your health, but surely there are positive things, or else they wouldnt do it. thanks, love jennyflower x

 

According to research, it is good for asthma, ADD, bronchitis, anorexia, and as a sleep aid.

Now, thoes are just some of the pros I can think of as of now for smoking cannabis. Now, legalizing cannabis would bring much revenue to our economy. People might try to debate that fact, but there are so many things that can be done with the cannabis sativa plant.

It truley is a blessing.

 

There are pro's and cons to everything, pot isn't great for you, but it does have health benifits particuarly to people slowly wasting away from long term diseases like cancer, it can also help glaucauma, and artheritis.

I quit smoking a few months ago because I'm focusing on kickboxing, thc binds to fat and hemoglobin and makes exercise less effecient, it also makes me feel kinda lazy. And after years of smoking a lot, I just wasn't having much fun anymore, so I decided to quit.

The biggest con is the law.

 

i agree with lodui, their are ups and downs to practically everything..

check out erowid.org for positive, neutral, and negative, but for the most part when u smoke your experience is positive or negative so dont think youll 'be calm and relaxed and flowing easier' and having 'anxious thoughts more frequently' at the same time..

 

Oh yeah, fractual reminded me of another benifit, I used to have some social anxiety, and a few years of smoking basically made it go away completly. God bless that little plant.

 

marijuana helped me focus in school, i have add and whenever i wasnt sleeping from being baked i could pay a lot more attention in class. but then i ended up getting busted/expelled/grounded for the whole summer.

theres nothing wrong with smoking it, but if youre going to sell it be extra precautious.

 

I hear that shit, man!
I was kicked out of school for 'possession.' I didn't have any on me, but the principal liked me and she wrote me up for possession instead of selling. To tell the truth, I actually had a dime on me, but no one ever found it.

 

just check out erowid and know what your gettin into, the pros FAR outweigh the cons IMO and probably everyone elses

 

I don't smoke it because I don't like the side-effects.

Smoking buds makes me anxious, panicky, paranoid, my mouth gets all dry and my muscles twitch. I also hate the taste, and the smoke from the bong kills my throat and lungs. I have never been a regular user so if I smoked it on a fairly regular basis (ie once a week upwards) I would probably stop getting those side effects. I don't wish to do that though, so I just stay away from it.

I have had exactly one magical experience from marijuana and that was from smoking leaf, but no-one seems to sell that stuff anymore.

 

dude...pot helped me waste all my money, lose all my trust with my mom, and lose many memories in the process...
but i wouldnt have it any other way i love weed
its a great thing


i mean who can argue with a few bowls a day


5 to be exact.....

 

to sell what now???

 

I don't know exactly what that is, but I'd like to know.

 

The leaves of the marijuana plant... That's what I enjoyed smoking... it made me mellow, happy and peaceful. Very mild effects. It didn't hit me like a Mack truck the way smoking buds do. Plus I think it was a joint that time, not a bong.

Good way to look at it.

I'm going to be honest, I don't know much about the growing of cannabis, but I do know much about the effects. I never knew there was a difference between the 'bud' and the leaf...
I actually plan on growing soon.

 

Yes, the leaves are WAY weaker than the heads. Apparently most dealers either don't sell it or they just give it away... it's not worth anything to them because everyone wants the heavy stuff.

 

Why would you want the weak stuff?
And how was your experience with it a good one?

 

The leaves are what I was smoking not too long ago when i was growing, because I didnt feel like waiting for the plants to flower. Its like smokingthe exact same, but to get really fucked up you just have to smoke a lot of it, compared to the buds.

 

Marijuana is a truely great plant. But it is also a powerful plant. It should be used sparingly, but reverently. If you are deciding whether to try marijuana, I would advise that you do, but do it in a happy, safe place. This will make it more enjoyable. Don't be nervous, that will give you are worried, paranoid trip. Just remeber that marijuana opens the door, you must walk through, and you must be careful once your on the other side.



I'm afraid I don't have a deep thought.
Peace and love.

I find it ok after going to Drum Circle and getting contact high and stuff. I can spin around and head band without getting dizzy or having my head hurt afterward, but other than that I won't touch the stuff....
