Shiver do you lift?
You all say it causes no deaths, Yes its true, but it does **** you up alot inside.
The short-term effects of marijuana include:
Distorted perception (sights, sounds, time, touch)
Problems with memory and learning
Loss of coordination
Trouble with thinking and problem-solving
Increased heart rate, reduced blood pressure
Affects on the brain can include...
Hallucinations
Delusions
Impaired memory
Disorientation
Effects on the Heart
Within a few minutes after smoking marijuana, the heart begins beating more rapidly and the blood pressure drops. Marijuana can cause the heart beat to increase by 20 to 50 beats per minute, and can increase even more if other drugs are used at the same time.
Because of the lower blood pressure and higher heart rate, researchers found that users' risk for a heart attack is four times higher within the first hour after smoking marijuana, compared to their general risk of heart attack when not smoking.
Affects on the lungs....
Daily cough and phlegm production
More frequent acute chest illnesses
Increased risk of lung infections
Obstructed airways
What About Cancer?
Although one study found that marijuana smokers were three times more likely to develop cancer of the head or neck than non-smokers, that study could not be confirmed by further analysis.
Effects of exposure during pregnancy
Altered responses to visual stimuli
Increased tremulousness
Problems with sustained attention and memory
Poor problem-solving skills
tl;dr
Smoking weed, or hash, means that you will develop cancer early on, Higher blood presure, if your having a baby, i dont want to say it but its gonna be retarded...
Now, Can we stop with these "OMG WEED IS COOL!!!" Threads, It puts a bad impact on NGU, And will make younger members, think more about it, and probably end up like a junkie through your threads.
This is just like any other thread, its about the side effects of weed, if its closed, then i want to know why NO OTHER WEED THREAD IS CLOSED!
-Thank you! And take your next draw carefully.

First of all, smoking a substance is obviously not good for you. The human body is not meant to inhale smoke. I do not encourage kids to mess with this because they can have a fun time doing other things when they are young.
BUT, there are other ways to consume marijuana. Such as eating baked goods and chocolate, drinking it (green dragon), and even taking THC in the form of a pill. These can still play around with your brain and heart, but are a lot more healthier than burning it.
Also, smoking marijuana different ways can have different effects on your lungs. I will name the safest ways in order from best to worst. Vaporizer, Bong and Hookah, small water pipes, glass pieces, flat pieces, blunts or joints.
Let me know if I forgot anything :y:

Lets see, someone tell me how ANY of these are destructive to your health...

You have obviously never smoked weed. This increase is so insignificant, it is comparable to the increase in heart rate you get when seeing a hott chick at the mall.
Should we illegalize hott women also?

first of all marijuana isn't a drug, it's a herb, it grows its an indigenous flower that after being dried you can smoke it and get euphoric effects from doing so, you can also eat it for a different mixture of feelings. You can also use the plant to weave hemp, and use the hemp to make alot of things, such as clothes, certain plastics(ie. cds), and food.
You don't get addicted to marijuana you get addicted to the feeling, it's not an addiction like cocaine or heroin or meth, you don't have to have it. you will not go through withdrawals when attempting to quit using, like you would with cocaine, heroin or meth. You can cold turkey it so easily it isn't funny.
You think it's a waste of money? well good for you, obviously alot of people out there beg the differ. Some probably thinks the internet is a waste of money and the same thing as purchasing a book to read.
"each for his own"- ever heard this? probably not, it means that if you don't like what someone does, why must you be the one to judge. Does it make you a better man? Some may say you playing video games is worthless and not good for you, and a waste of money. But who are they to judge?
To much of anything isn't good for you. Eat a ton of burgers and you'll get fat eventually.
After i learned that the school system is actually brain washing you into believing what is right and what is wrong I came to the conclusion that alot of the stuff they said about certain things was wrong. Instead i researched things more vigorously and found what I believed to be the truth.
Yes, certain drugs are bad for you, but there are no proven deaths from marijuana, there are actually proven facts that if you smoke marijuana you can excel at certain things that you wouldn't have sober. So you write saying that marijuana causes cancer, then why would it many doctors see it fit to give to patients to help with their cancer if it's only going to increase their cancer?
Your thread is what they tried to teach in school. You sir have been brain washed by henry kissinger, the reason why marijuana is illegal everywhere.
:dance:

:dance:I know when im brainwashed and im not.
I was just stating the facts of Side affects of Weed, and hash.
I do have to admit the feelings are good, But that doesnt excuse what effects it can have.
Im only making this to prove that there ARE side affects, when people say theres not

My dad is 65, he's been smoking weed since he was 16. He's still very healthy. The same can't be said for my uncle, who died aged 38 - alcohol related.
Weed isn't as bad as some people would like to think, especially in comparison to alcohol. At the same time, I don't think NGU is the place to discuss weed, it shouldn't be promoted to our younger users.
