IT SLOWS DOWN YOUR BRAINS ABILITY TO COMUNICATE WITH YOUR BODY

I have a friend who smokes 2-3 times a week and I've noticed he's not as motivated or focused.

it kills brain cells (which do not regenerate), so pick something your brain controls and picture life without it. Uggggh..What was the question again ??

If someone will help me find my deadbeat dad of an ex-husband, I'll let you know. I have a feeling it's going to lean more towards the negative, though. i.e. deadbeat

it keeps the arteries open in the brain..I read this in a senior citizen newspaper Look at all the washed out hippies walkin around town. You can find a lot of them at easy jobs, like retail stores and so on, even at concerts. Take a nice look at them. Yea. Thats a pretty good representation of a pothead in their 40's and 50's

There is an increased risk of mental illness (psychosis, depression etc).

Positive? Hmm I guess you might be less stressed. But then if you are using a drug to cope with stress your problems will just exacerbate because as soon as the high weras off you can't cope and you become reliant on it to help you cope

if ure thinking about smoking pot i would highly recomened it you fell great ure cool and it can even help you lose weight i feel fine after 3 years i've never been addickted really i simply need it to survive JK stay clean! it can seriously damage your reflexes and long term memory Short term memory deficits, lack of pleasure doing anything unless stoned, lack of motivation, personal appearance and housekeeping less important. Psychological dependency on cannabis.

No positives that I can think of, and I don't have the time or energy to list all of the negatives.

no positive effects are listed,but many negative ones,as addiction,disturbed social life and career and lastly amotivational syndrome.

Dr.solo Long term effects? No. Not really.

Short term effects of long term use may include reduced anxiety and depression or increased anxiety and depression. It really depends on the person. Some persons may find that smoking pot is so enjoyable that they lose motivation to do anything else, but in my experiance that's not likely for most people. Same with pot addiction very unlikely! Alcohol is more dangerous and addicting than pot and many many people drink without becoming alcoholics.

There is a possible corelation between marajuana and an onset of schizophrenia, but this is in people who are already predisposed to mental illness and might develop it anyways.
