do u relay think pot is bad?

Question

i got some idk if i should smoke it or i dont know what i should do do even no how to smoke it?

Answer 1

It certainly isn't helping you in any way. It isn't making you smarter, cooler, or getting ahead in any way in life. Why waste your time on something that does nothing for you?

Answer 2

A doctor can tell a pregnant women not to smoke cigerettes because of testing proof that it can harm a baby, but there is no proof that smoking weed will harm a baby... Only speculation... Im not saying for a pregnant women to try it, but a doctor can not legally say proof wise that it is harmfull.. Also people would not be trying so hard to make it legal if it caused cancer and other symptoms like cigs... People don't go out and rob stores and banks to get money for weed...

Do I think it pot is bad??? NO, but just like everything else in life it must be done in moderation and with responsibility... SIMPLE

Answer 3

This is from the NIH. (National Institutes of Health)

The short-term effects of marijuana can include problems with memory and learning; distorted perception; difficulty in thinking and problem solving; loss of coordination; and increased heart rate. Research findings for long-term marijuana abuse indicate some changes in the brain similar to those seen after long-term abuse of other major drugs.

One study has indicated that a user's risk of heart attack more than quadruples in the first hour after smoking marijuana7. The researchers suggest that such an effect might occur from marijuana's effects on blood pressure and heart rate and reduced oxygen-carrying capacity of blood.

A study of 450 individuals found that people who smoke marijuana frequently but do not smoke tobacco have more health problems and miss more days of work than nonsmokers8. Many of the extra sick days among the marijuana smokers in the study were for respiratory illnesses.

Even infrequent abuse can cause burning and stinging of the mouth and throat, often accompanied by a heavy cough. Someone who smokes marijuana regularly may have many of the same respiratory problems that tobacco smokers do, such as daily cough and phlegm production, more frequent acute chest illness, a heightened risk of lung infections, and a greater tendency to obstructed airways9. Smoking marijuana possibly increases the likelihood of developing cancer of the head or neck. A study comparing 173 cancer patients and 176 healthy individuals produced evidence that marijuana smoking doubled or tripled the risk of these cancers10.

Marijuana abuse also has the potential to promote cancer of the lungs and other parts of the respiratory tract because it contains irritants and carcinogens9,11. In fact, marijuana smoke contains 50 to 70 percent more carcinogenic hydrocarbons than does tobacco smoke12. It also induces high levels of an enzyme that converts certain hydrocarbons into their carcinogenic form—levels that may accelerate the changes that ultimately produce malignant cells13. Marijuana users usually inhale more deeply and hold their breath longer than tobacco smokers do, which increases the lungs' exposure to carcinogenic smoke. These facts suggest that, puff for puff, smoking marijuana may be more harmful to the lungs than smoking tobacco.

There's a lot more where this came from. See the website below.

Answer 4

It's not bad. The only bad thing would be if you smoked it habitually. Sort of like having a drink once in a while compared to being a raging alcoholic. Even though pot is illegal in most places alcohol is actually worse for you physically.

Answer 5

Well, pot is also called a "gateway drug", because the users tend to go to harder and harder drugs. So the best way is not to start. Think of it like this: If you get hit by a train, it's not the caboose that kills you.........best of luck.

Answer 6

Don't jeopardize your brain any further. You seem to have trouble already. Pot does affect the short term memory, you know.

Pot must be a bad thing. You can not phrase a coherent question.

no, it's in the bible.

God said, "Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed which is upon the face of all the earth.…To you it will be for meat." … And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. (Genesis 1:29-31)
