what are the side effects of smoking pot?

Question

and what is a bong and how do they use it?

Answer 1

One bad side effect is that it is inclined to make the smoker lazy. However, for others, the release of anxiety can be a highly motivational factor.
In my experience, smoking pot is different for different people, and so are the side effects,
But there are NO dangerous side effects, except as one responder said, the possibility of getting busted.

A bong is a water pipe.
It is a tube, sealed at one end, with a spout about half way down. The pot is put in the mouth of the spout, and water is put in the tube to just above the spout level. By sucking on the top pf the tube, the pot smoke is drawn through the water, cooling it and cleaning out any debris.

Answer 2

There was a time when people who smoked pot regularly claimed there were no adverse side effects. When i was much younger, i did smoke pot a few times just to see what it was like. For me, there were many side effects, some not very pleasant. THC, an hullucinagenic present in pot, caused me to see things that other people could not. Some of the things i saw did frighten me. Most pot smokers are not as sensitive to the THC as i am, and smoking pot might not cause another person to hullucinate.Also, after smoking pot, there would BE NO WAY that i would be able to drive. My motor responses were way off. My response time was delayed considerably. And one thing else : the munchies. I found myself craving whatever was availabe to eat. Pot smokers have a tendency to pick up some weight because they are always hungry after smoking and always snacking on something. Pot just wasnt for me but some of my best friends swear by it (the use of). Remember, marijuana is illegal, unless you have a doctor who is willing to prescribe it for you. A bong is one way used to smoke pot. The smoke from the pot is cooled by water before it enters your mouth.

A bong is a water pipe through which cannabis smoke is filtered. It requires two people to use it, one to smoke the joint and exhale into the pipe, the other one to inhale at another area of the pipe.

Answer 4

short term memory loss is the most common documented
side-affect of smoking marijuana, it's also considered to be a
stepping-stone drug that may lead to heavier kinds of drugs.
also a bong is a water pipe, theres a whole in the bottom that
is called a carb you light the bong while holding the carb, once
the bowls lite you inhale on it, then you take your thumb off of the
carb, this causes a suction that shoots all the smoke into your
lungs, these kinds of pipes usually can be purchased at any
tobacco store but you usually have to atlest be 18 to enter them.

Answer 5

some memory loss - like remembering lock combinations and such

probably some lung damage similar to smoking

a bong is a water pipe . . .the pot is lit, and then people inhale and the smoke goes through the water and cools

Answer 6

Very moderate use has practically no side effects, but the more you smoke the longer the list gets. But even long-term heavy smoking hasn't been shown to be as bad as the fear-mongers would have you believe. However, I think you should find better things to do with your time than getting stoned. It's a waste of time.

Answer 7

smoking pot as long as you ask and don't start !!!
