The sad part, is anecdotal evidence seems to indicate a very high probability that its beneficial from a medical standpoint
i have many friends who say that they experience some bad affects directly from it that they can really notice like:
-Not being able to remember what happened yesterday or what they were doing five minutes ago, randomly.
-tiredness all the time, in varying degrees to how much hes smoked lately
-addiction(only 1), doesnt get as high anymore, knows hes going to end up having to go on to a harder drug, says shrooms probaly. (addiction to some degree will develop over a period of time proportionate to the amount and quantity of intake)
actually thats about it.. ...
But you have to remember that marijuana usage in groups can be extremely fun, hilarious, and random. If you didnt do it as much, you probaly wouldnt notice the side affects as much, or it would take longer before you began noticing them. The problem is, it isnt just the high, but what happens when your high.. the stories ive heard are hilarious.
I havent ever smoked and wont for a variety of reasons:
A- i will know the feeling of it and throught trials and crisises the temptation would be inevitabley larger.
B- i
know that it has side affects, mostly dealing with the accumulation of THC, which erodes short term memory, and exhausts your body.
C- i have a theory that it was one of the causes in mental illness for my sister and my cousin, they were/are both about the age, with the social group that would most likely be capable of attaining it. specially my sister.
D- it stays in your system for about 4 weeks-2 months depending on quantity and amount consumed recently.
E- you arent always 100% sure of what your getting, black widow, the so called high quality goverment weed, is really just another type spray painted black, with red painted seeds. The spray paint aids to the high, and has extreme health affects. I have a friend who had his weed laced with loveboat(his high lasted for 2 days, so did the migraine), a less potent variation of acid with little side affects in comparison.
F- what if i got caught?
G- what if i got caught?
H- there are minimal dangers while high, but minimal.
Reasons i would like to smoke it:
A- i have a theory that it can make you more spiritually receptive at the time, and maybe after, but that this affect is more likely to come after a long time usage 1month+, no idea if it can be induced. This theory is based on many many things from many diferent places/people. You can become more spiritually receptive through God tho, so it isnt a just weed thing.
B- would like to try meditating while high
C- to be with my friends while high, have something to talk about later.
But the reasons not to outway the reasons to, i would never smoke just to get high.
ne1 can do this: Still-minded mediation, do not confuse with something Jesus related after youve done it just because of the feeling. I dont know if this is satanic or not, nothing to show that it is, not inferred to in the bible anywhere. Bliss(varying in your skill) can be achieved after a time(varying in your skill), 2 hours is longest ive gone, but i got bored of it and havent done it much since. i know someone who quit marijuana cas he could get "spiritually high" much easier. he however, is not christian. this does sound stupid but oh well.
maybe i'll reply to other things tomorrow (like Marissa's post) when finals are finished
