What can weed do to you

ok first off id like to point out how much braindamaged sounds like an NIDA or DEA representative lol, srry if thats really a person there, but id like to point out that even on the off chance that his story is true id like to point out the rarity of it, the stuff he mentioned sounds alot like the things that happen when ur high and stop when u come down, little things like that make me think he is from DEA. but anyways his case if its true is like 1 in 100,000, i dont know the exact numbers but i know that the chance of u developing any mental illnesses from weed is so isignificant that u dont need to worry about it i havent gotten to the "weve been lied to again" post but i think if he is a DEA or NIDA rep it will show up in that post so look for my reply in there.

well weed affects everyone differently which is why it is in constant debate...
for me personally, i have little to no short term memory...it has made me pass out 3 times in the past and makes me light headed...a little anti social....see i was going to say something else but i forgot, not even joking

ill post agian when i remeber

oop ya now i remeber

When Tony Blair down graded cannabis to class C it encouraged me it was relatively safe. Now I wish he would reclassify skunk to class A as I feel it should be, cannabis is not what it used to be, skunk is at least ten times stronger, it is just too strong. I have learnt from experience the hard way and now my life is over, yet unfortunately I am still alive, I am only 26. I feel I have gone totally mad, my personality has been completely burnt away, I am like a vegetable with slurred speech, my brain is burnt out and totally damaged. I stopped a long time ago and have not recovered. Life used to be ok. Thanks to skunk it is now torture and I wish I was no more.

This is not political its just my experience, I don't know if it is due to my genetic make up, maybe some predisposition for this to happen which skunk has just triggered or what. If you don't believe me fine at least I have tried to warn others from what I have learnt the hard way. Read information from mental health charities on the subject which I have since and you will find some people skunk can cause them to lose their mind. I am not saying it will happen I am just saying you are rolling the dice like I did with your sanity, this shit is not 100% safe you could be the one in so many like me. Believe me madness is more frighting than you could ever imagine its like a bad trip all the time. I hope I get the balls to take my own life some time soon.

I understand it's not w/o risk, but I also know that you are likely an anomoly, if this is even remotely true. I know someone who has smoked pot for 35 years and they're fine lol.

why is it bad to do when your still growing(im only 14)

hahahahhahahahahhaha

btw STOP WORRYING if you smoke it and your fine then smoke on... remember that people have been doingthis shit for hundreds of years

JFoster--

Put simply, it stunts your growth-- slows physical development, and you don't grow to be as tall.

Basically, in the chemical mayhem that is puberty, it's bad to introduce outside chemicals that fucks it up even more-- it can lead to weird chemical imbalance stuff, which leads to stunted growth, slower development (where it counts, too, if you get my drift) and even depression.

I don't mean to sound like DEA or anything; it's just that mid-puberty isn't the time to be fucking with your body chemistry.

Ok BrainDamaged i'll copy and paste the same reply I did with your original thread.

"Let me assure you "BrainDamaged" that you would of been pre-disposed to schitzophrenia and/or another illness. I have been smoking for roughly 8-9 years and although I havn't been smoking skunk everyday (around 4-7 times a day) for the past 3-4 years I have been. My state of mind is nowhere near yours, not even close.

Like I said you would have been pre-disposed to a mental illness to get those effects(yours sounds like an extreme case)."

jfoster along with goodman intruducing new chemicals during the most critical time that your brain and psyche are devoloping and growing increases your chances of mental health problems.. such as depression, anxiety, panic attacks, can cause social problems, inhibition and really fuck up your metabolism which causes the physical problems... now all of the above are not guranteed to happen but more lickley then someone who starts smoking in their 20's

i was just diagnosed with hyperthroidism.... the thyoid basically controls your metabolism and how hard it works...in my case it over works and causes alot of strain on my body and especially my heart... i have no family history of it....my doctor believes that me begining to smoke during the main sprout of puberty may have effected it along with other inbalances...this coming from a man who believes weed is basically harmless compared to alcohole and other drugs..

now im 6' 3 so how weed affects you is different from person to person...and it would be ignorant to assume weed is completely harmless...

braindead u posted the same EXACT shit twice, now if u truly have a problem, u had to have mental problems before u started toking or u got a bitch load of laced shit, and liked other said on the other forum, y is it that ur spelling and everything so great....anyway if u truly do have problems cause of it im sorry but i still highly doubt ur telling the truth
