Answer 2

Suddenly dope seems to be everywhere I go.

In my work, I see lots of people (mainly young men) whose lives have been completely destroyed by psychosis and addiction. Sometimes it is difficult to say whether they started smoking because they had a mental illness, or whether the cannabis caused/contributed to it. And I've also seen people who let cannabis rule their lives, and being stoned all the time makes them apathetic, soon getting bored with everyday life, and also having problems with insomnia. Then there is the irritability from coming off long-term cannabis, leading to violence and relationship problems.

I also see a lot of my peer group smoking cannabis and still holding down respectable jobs, and being sorted, sane people. They extol the virtues of the drug, such as painkilling and relaxing effects, and generally argue that it is much less damaging on society than alcohol.

So I'm not really sure. I think the effects vary from person to person.
But I would personally never smoke it.

Cannabis can be used in glaucoma patients to reduce their intraocular pressure, and in doing so, prevents them from becoming blind. It can be used for cancer patients under going nkchemotherapy and people with AIDs to reduce nausea and increase appetite.

It has been used throughout history by ancient doctors who used it for a variety of illnesses and ailments. These included a whole host of gastrointestinal disorders, insomnia, headaches and as a pain reliever, frequently used in childbirth.

In my honest opinion, I don't believe the plant should be used as a medicine, at least, not in it's natural state. I think the plant should be further studied, so that it can be used as a medicine, without getting the patient stoned. There are a lot of pain killers out there that get the patient "stoned", but these drugs are usually used for short periods of time, until the patient recovers.

As for daily treatment for the rest of your life, or for a very long period of your life to slow the progression of glaucoma, or to increase appetite for chemotherapy patients... How would they ever be able to function normally, without becoming a pothead?

A lot of pharmaceutical drugs are derived from plants and mixed with other things and turned into pills to make it more useful as a medicine, and the same should happen with cannabis.

Answer 4

Bad, and this is my view on ALL mind altering substances, including Prozac etc.

Our brain has a delicate balance of chemicals, and when tampered with by any means, inc stress etc a reaction is seen in a person behaviour.

So why people tamper with such a balance is beyond me, the brain is still uncharted in some aspects and we continue to learn about.
If doctors can't even produce a decent anti depressive drug with out effecting the mind why trust some drug dealer with a human mind......

Answer 5

The law say it is wrong and harmful. But what about alcohol? If you smoke pot you don't get in a car and kill someone. You might gain some weight. You know, God made it and that is no excuse for breaking the law in this confused land that we live in. I would say it's the safest. Can I say these things? The rep., are really getting out of hand with this big brother thing, but you know what, people didn't stand up and fight against it, so this is what happens when you ignore what the government is doing!

Answer 6

its only good for your Brain. when your not under stress or feeling guilty . when you let yourself go and your not being offensive .some people dont like being out of control of thier feelings and mind and soul .so if somebody follows the crowd there in a bit of trouble with the old paranoia . so not good all round but very very good for the thinker.its got to be better than what the doctor gives you .

Answer 7

Cannabis as used by the general population is bad.

It gives rise to chronic lung diseases, lung cancer and quite possibly psychosis.

It has some medicinal uses, mostly in the realm of palliative care medicine where people are very unwell from cancers and from chemotherapy agents. THC (the active ingredient) can give you "the munchies" and promote appetite - very useful in someone who is nauseated from many causes.

Answer 9

whether it has good or bad effects totally depends upon the user... its a natural resource that can have healing properties, ie: asthma, tension, stress, period pain & hemp has sustainable value when utilised in food, fabric, paper etc, however, when used for hedonistic purposes it requires the user to know when to say when & if they have no self dicipline or sense of responsibility towards their emotional, physical or psychological health then people can self destruct on too much, ie: paranoia, apathy, mood swings, etc... as they just keep wanting more... too much of anything can have a bad effect, all things in moderation, even good things

Answer 10

Ask your doctor about an exercise routine. Regular exercise, such as walking three times a week, may reduce neuropathy pain, improve your muscle strength and help control blood sugar levels. Gentle routines such as yoga and tai chi might also help.

Answer 11

It's been shown to slow the progress of glaucoma (common in diabetes) and to ease nausea associated with chemotherapy when your being treated for cancer. If we could cut the use as a social drug, it would be easier to get them legalized for their medicinal uses.
