I don't know why we even bother telling these blaze it scums why it's bad to smoke weed. These schizoids are so delusional that if you even try to tell them that smoking weed is bad for your health they'll call you a "dare". I guess these young bucks will just have to learn first hand how damaging weed smoking actually is.
I'm surprised why they don't just call joints psychosis on a stick? Because that literally what weed high is, a transient psychosis in most cases, but in some cases a full on psychiatrically tricked psychosis.

Nice try trying to derail a serious issue, the propaganda that weed is anywhere near being considered a safe drug.
Go take another fat bong rip you scattered brain schizoid. Get detached from reality and sanity you cuck.

found the kike can confirm all of this, weed is worst drug on the planet, current efforts are being used to appease liberal faggots who are being led to white genocide.
Duertes isn't harsh enough on drugs.

You only need to use a small amount once a week to get the benefits. I don't know how alcohol is in your country, OP, but Americans are drowning in booze and it doesn't help a single person.

Only 159% increase?
So what chance of getting phsychosis goes from 0.002% to 0.0034%. Oh no whatever will we do!

What about smoking strains with high CBD and low THC?
Since CBD is antipsychotic would it counter the psychotic effect caused by THC?
Also according to the same study smoking tobacco can also raise the risk for psychosis.
Joseph Reyes
>cannot kill you, non-toxic Toxicity is not the only measure of harm. Estrogen pills won't kill men either, yet you wouldn't want to give them to men, and you wouldn't say they're harmless. Smoking weed is like smoking estrogen in plant form. That is why when you picture a stoner in your mind, you picture a docile, passive, smelly wreck of a human with flies swarming around.
Daniel Evans
If you use weed and experience psychosis your body is telling you you have deep-seated emotional issues likely stemming from childhood abuse or neglect. Weed is a tool that will show you the error of your ways. It's up to you to do something about it. Most people can't handle weed because it will force you to face your demons. Better that way than to stay a bluepilled wagecuck with repressed emotional trauma.
Adrian Murphy
I've never met a person that I respect and smokes weed
That's my two cents
Eli Morales
well cbd weed doesnt even really get you high and it's not a psychoactive substance so if you want to waste money and smoke something for its supposed health benefits then go for it.

Except estrogen IS toxic, brainlet. Too much of it and you will die; your organs will fail. You cannot overdose on cannabis. It is physically impossible. Fucking brainlets need to start using cannabis and reducing that brain inflammation they've had for so many years. Lurk more.
Joshua Hughes
I microdose. Helps relieve bordom and doesnt make you feel crazy if you dont over do it. Just vape a lil and feel a lil high.
but I know that WHOA IM LOSING MY MIND feel. just dont over do it. A little bit occasionally helps with relaxing and deep philosophical understanding.
Blake Garcia
It's good to lose your mind every now and then. You come out on the other side a better person. I've have some very simple yet profound revelations about my life stoned out of my mind. Cannabis is a helluva drug. No wonder people have been using it for thousand of years.
Cameron Cox
That's 2/3rds of the threads on Sup Forums but with leaf/memeflag posters
James Russell
Respectful people usually don't tell other people that they consume and enjoy an illegal drug.
it took drugs to have simple revelations because you're a fucking degenerate fuck up to begin with, the cleaner and sharper your mind and guess what? profound revelations become a regular occurrence.
>Helps relieve bordom ever thought of you know fuckin doing something? or is learning and progressing in an interest completely off limits for you?
Carter Perry
And what about those of us who didn't touch weed until we were nearly 30? By us, I mean responsible, non-stereotypical stoners with jobs who weren't stupid enough to use drugs as children.
Matthew Harris
The main danger is that it leads to apathy, lack of motivation/will to do things. If your life is together and you get high on the weekend not a big deal. If you are already in a hole trying to dig yourself out, weed will guarantee you never have the motivation to get out of it.
Ethan Sanchez
>getting this mad over people you don't know enjoying a relatively safe psychotropic
Don't you need a license in your country for being such a detached killjoy?
Sure, if you have a bad heart. It's not the cannabis that kills you though, it's your shitty diet. My mind is cleaner and sharper on cannabis though. This is proven with scientific study. Cannabis is an anti-inflammatory, antibacterial drug that encourages homeostasis and regulates hormones. If you were raised perfectly (100% adequate nutrition, 100% healthy home environment, little to no early-in-life stress) and come from good genetics you'd be okay. But humans are imperfect and life is tough, so I am therefore grateful mother nature has taken care of us and offers us so many diverse, rich, ecosystems full of medical plants. Keep drinking that pharmaceutical kool-aid, faggot. >smokes weed >suddenly realizes how shitty and pointless his job and our society is thanks to endless usury and Jewish nepotism and endless war and poor nutrition OV VEY

You can purchase with high amounts of CBD and little to no THC. Your point about "modern strains" is a fox news tier strawman that only boomers buy into
Aiden Lewis
>Modern strains are high THC retard
There are strains with high CBD and minimal THC. It's mostly medical weed
The richest guy I know smokes weed and all day everyday.
The poorest and dirtiest person I know is a straight edge god fearing christian.
It's almost like as if it might be the individual and you shouldn't trust "recent studies show" with small sample sizes that didn't even calculate other life factors such as diet, stress, weight, and the environmental factors of each individual.
But what the fuck do I know.

>Totally incorrect, faggot
F10.5 alcohol:[3][4][5] Alcohol is a common cause of psychotic disorders or episodes, which may occur through acute intoxication, chronic alcoholism, withdrawal, exacerbation of existing disorders, or acute idiosyncratic reactions.[3] Research has shown that alcohol abuse causes an 8-fold increased risk of psychotic disorders in men and a 3 fold increased risk of psychotic disorders in women.[6][7] While the vast majority of cases are acute and resolve fairly quickly upon treatment and/or abstinence, they can occasionally become chronic and persistent.[3] Alcoholic psychosis is sometimes misdiagnosed as another mental illness such as schizophrenia.[8]
How is that my statement incorrect? The production and sale of CBD only products is currently happening and only expanding as time goes on. I'm not denying certain strains are altered to contain more THC but it's a two-way street and the opposite case is also occurring.

Everything has its risks you act like alcohol is any better, let people have there generally harmless vices freedom and all that.

I think a large reason it causes depression is because it pacifies you and prevents you from making any changes in your life If I smoke once or twice alone I contemplate where my life is and where I should improve, and it gives me a different perspective than when I'm sober. If I do it with some m8s it can lead to interesting conversation and an opportunity to drop redpills However, when I smoke very frequently I just end up stewing in my own depression, stop making changes/improvements in my life, and play vidya and watch TV.
I don't deny that it increases the risk of psychosis, but for depression this is how it's affected me and I wouldn't be surprised it's the same for others.
Noah Clark
>itt: MUH IRRATIONAL STANCE ON A RELATIVELY BENIGN DRUG IS BEING CONTESTED > I NEED IT TO FEEL SUPERIOR
You guys are fucking pathetic. People who go this hard trying to prove weed is anything other than a soft drug, no different in harm than alcohol, are just as bad, if not worse, than "420 smoke weed everyday" fags.
Jaxson Reed
I'm just enjoying the ride, senpai. I'm experiencing my life one moment at a time. I love smoking cannabis. I don't care what anyone else has to say. It's my choice. It has no negative effect on you.

Caleb Garcia
It's a travesty that drugs are being pushed on teenagers. Your brain isn't done developing until you're 25. Giving kids drugs as they go through puberty is particularly fucked up. Now with even easier access to weed in Canada our next generations are going to be even gayer.
Isaac Morris
Moderation is key with anything. You can be a healthy meth addict if you use correct moderation. Sadly it's fun as fuck to get high.
Levi Robinson
i learned this the hard way and it has ruined my life. i didnt even smoke that much but unfortunately it had a negative affect on my mind. some people have a brain that is not suited to taking strong strains of weed and unfortunately i eneded up being one of those people.
used to smoke casually with my friends probably smoked less than 100 times in my life though. one day i had a massive panic attack and was unable to touch the stuff without having a panic attack every time so i decided to stop alltogether. then slowly slowly over the space of 4 years i would have mild panic attacks for no reason but i never paid them any attention since they werent that bad. then some time last year i took an ibuprofen to help with a injury i had and boom i experienced the worst panic attack i have ever had in my life. this panic attack didnt go however and lasted a good week straight of nonstop panic attack-like symptoms. thats when i developed a deafening tinnitus that is worse than anything you can imagine and which i think i will be stuck with forever. then the panic attacks went away and came back in waves for a month or two. the panic attacks have stopped sort of but my body is in a constant state of anxiety and adrenaline rush. the anxiety has led me to develop derealisation/depersonalisation which is worse than the tinnitus and anxiety combined.
before i smoked weed i never had a panic attack and no i do not have any deep rooted or underlying emotional issues i was as happy as a pig in mud before all of this happened to me.
in my opinion mind altering drugs are too risky to mess with especially if you have an overly analyitical and hyper self aware mind. dont do it this has ruined my life and if it wasnt for the fact that i have what i think is a very strong reslove i would have probably gone insane or committed suicide by now. you might be somebody who can smoke weed with no problem at all but theres no way to know 100 percent until it is too late
