Weed's effects on the brain
just wondering, can anybody tell me if there's any actual negative effects on the brain? I know there's a lot of controversy about that, but some real scientific info would be great. seems everything I hear is biased, consisting of "it'll make you go psycho and use heroin!" or "it's good for you and will actaully make you way smarter!" blah blah blah. anywhoo, if anybody knows anything, feel free to chip in.

I pray use of the internet has hindered me from detecting your joking tone.

incase it didn't tell you enough, what i meant is that marijuana is harmless. it may stimulate your mind and sedate your body but thats what it does. it wont make you insane.
in my experiences with drugs i've never done before, i've noticed that i was more prone to do them because i had already been smoking weed.
you remember the first time you smoked? all paranoid about doing it...well, i was. i think once you get over that fear with something like marijuana, it makes all those other drugs you haven't done yet easier to do.

I was sorta wondering more in the region of long-term brain damage, like permanently decreased motor skills or memory or something. plus, I only use it 2 times a week on average, so don't know if it would still do anything if it does at all.

Personally weed has not affected my memory in the slightest. This guy was president and he smoked a little weed.
(prez = guy on the right)

2 times a week? is that by choice or you just can't always buy it?
my short-term memory is horrible. but other than that i'd say i have a better memory than most.

naa that wont happen unless u smoke weed for 50 years and 5 times a day. And this isnt a bad thing but if ur thinking ur only gonna smoke 2 times a week ur very wrong, i was gonna do it every other week once and now i do it eeveryday. U will too most likely but at least ull be happy

Actually, I'm been smoking for 11 months and used to every day. I cut down because my lungs were getting a bit clogged (and didnt' want it go get worse), I don't have a lot of money for it, and I find I get a bit (but only a bit) permafried, usually if I smoke 4 days in a row or more. though it always wears off 100% after 2 days of abstinence, sometimes only 1.
