Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29729580 you're just trolling, aren't you. I don't even smoke anymore, it's been years; but it seems to me you are just looking for some kind of argument. No one "needs" marijuana to live. If anyone is inferior, it is YOU for the need to point out perceived personality flaws in others to allow you to feel 'superior'. |

If that is how adults think, I don't want to be one. You know Cartels are not the sole suppliers of Weed in north america. In fact, they supply the very worst kind of weed. It doesnt take a complicated criminal network to distribute Cannabis. Alot of dealers sells their own shit they grow without having to get into territorial dispute. Criminals shoots each other for the harder stuff. You are sleeping and we forgive you, but time to wake up. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 17431247 United States12/18/2012 09:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Long-term marijuana abuse can lead to addiction; that is, compulsive drug seeking and abuse despite its known harmful effects upon social functioning in the context of family, school, work, and recreational activities. Long-term marijuana abusers trying to quit report irritability, sleeplessness, decreased appetite, anxiety, and drug craving, all of which make it difficult to quit. These withdrawal symptoms begin within about 1 day following abstinence, peak at 2-3 days, and subside within 1 or 2 weeks following drug cessation. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29729580 The withdrawal alone is evidence that it's doing something negative to your brain. I hear potsmokers say that alcohol is so much worse. That really depends, doesn't it? I know longtime pot smokers who have psychological issues as well as physical, from the weed. Let's not forget that weed grown today is something like 100x stronger than it was in the 60s. It's a drug like any other. Cocaine comes from a plant and it destroys your heart. The natural claim is bunk, as many, many natural things are detrimental to human health. Anyway, all I am going to say is there are longterm pot smokers in my immediate family and none of them are in good shape mentally whereas once they were quite shapr and creative. It kills something in you. Brain cells, it would seem. |

Brain cells, it would seem. it was easy to quit, even after 24 years, if you really want to (i did, for a job change) i do acknowledge i know other smokers who have turned into what i term as a "burn out" but i don't entirely blame weed on that, it depends on the person i suppose. one thing i miss is the spark of creativity it gave me musically, it made me want to pick up the guitar and write music prolifically, which i haven't done much at all since i quit. |
