Well I was smoking some nice green at a "friends" and in comes this girl, im not sure if she was a relative of my "friend" but anyway..She storms about, paces back and fourth.
"I need some dope now!"
She was pissed off, she already owed my good friend money, clearly she was having supply problems as I doubt she would have come back if she knew where to go...this making sense? Anyway, I was just a little amazed at how somebody could go so crazy over a little bit of smoke...it wasnt even gonna be a drastic amount....
*empties bowl out*
well...
*walks off*
It's strictly dependant on each persons genetics. I happen to know numerous people who have been psychologically affected.

Pass_the_dubbie: well it's not bullshit man, it's a fact. It's a psychoactive drug.

A psychoactive drug or psychotropic substance is a chemical substance that acts primarily upon the central nervous system where it alters brain function, resulting in temporary changes in perception, mood, consciousness and behavior.

Cannabis is no exception to the rule of Euphoria i.e. give the brain Euphoria and take it away, see how it reacts. Of course it has an effect, it's a drug for fuck sake. I am pro-cannabis, and although I don't feel any effects pandered by the FDA, DEA or republican government - I do feel a withdrawal, something that is specific to my immune system, neurology and genetics. I somewhat take offence at being told what I am saying is bullshit having had a great deal of experience with this drug, and having many physical complaints at which it cures - some of which are mental by the way.

I will say again in some people extreme mental addiction may occur, a.k.a. dependance, a.k.a. mental changes and syndrome like effects manifest and patients can become angry, volatile, upset, depressed, anxious, and many MANY more.

Again, in SOME PEOPLE. :-) It's not a pop at cannabis, I am in love with the drug, please though don't mistake your love with the drug with physical scientific evidence about such psychoactive drugs. Having briefly spoken to a world medical expert on Cannabis I can tell you this, upto or in excess of 1000 differing components exist within cannabis - not just THC.

In peace I would say it's not BS at all, and in peace I would say ignorance is no replacement for your awareness of self and any scientific data that can help prove your awareness and experiences are founded. In this case the definition of psychoactive explains many changes in the mind occur, some of which are indeed associated with addiction. Dopamine for instance.
