If you smoke pot recreationally will it do any damage?

Question

Like if you only smoked it once a week or once every few months?

Answer 1

Not really, but I wouldn't do it when you have school work to do because it makes you really lazy and effs up your short term memory. Also, ANY combustion (burning) of plants releases carcinogenic compounds(not saying pot causes cancer but it can release harmful compounds you didn't intend to take in) into your lungs so its a risk you have to weigh with the benefits, those risks of course are lessened if you sublime it (vaporize it). As far doing it as every few months you should be totally fine.

Answer 2

It will take some effect on you in the long run. Everytime you smoke pot, you kills millions of brain cells. And you can never get them back. Killing the cells in your brain, make your brain function like a zombie. Have you ever seen some those people living on the street and they are like they don't know what you are talking about, they have killed so many cells in their brain, that it don't work the way it should be.

Answer 3

It could land you in jail. Other than that, I really am not sure. But the laws are so amazingly strict and the penaties so draconian that I would not do it were I you. There are plenty of fun, mind-altering, legal things to do:
1) dry martini
2) mind-blowing sex
3) hot music
4) running, swimming, extreme sports

Answer 4

Well, its not going to help anything that is for sure. As for major health problems, it won't hurt. But you are not doing your lungs a good service when you do smoke.

Answer 5

It will damage your lungs. The gunk in weed is WORSE than in cigarettes, so one joint is like a whole pack of cigs.
Not to mention that it's ILLEGAL......you could get arrested & pay a big fine, or even go to jail.

Answer 6

it kills your brain cells. so yes, it causes damage. now would be a really good time to stop.

Answer 7
