Is weed really that bad for you? Or are the negative sides nothing compared to all the other Legal"non"drugs

in #weed7 years ago

First of all i want to give my opinion on weed as it is. I think weed is more helpfull then it does damage, i think there shouldn't even be debates about wheter we should legalize it or not because if you look at all the othere horrors in this world weed isn't even such a big deal right? So isn't it time for the world to grow the **** up? If you'd ask me i would say yes but if you'd ask everybody in the world then still 90% or more would say yes or care too less about it to make a big deal out of it. So the big question is not if it's bad for you but why isn't it legal everywhere yet so we can test wheter or not it's bad for you and closely study the EXACT effects of weed. And i know the world will be suprised on what kind of big, powerfull and above all positive impact full legalization would have on the entire world.

But never the less let's find out how bad and oh so terrifying  weed actually is.

When you smoke weed Tetrahydrocannabinol or thc is being inhaled through the lungs and the thc will then get into your blood and go to your brain where it affects multiple parts of the brain.
 

In the picture above you can see wich parts of the brain thc has an affect on.

the thc binds to special brain cell receptors wich makes you feel "high" or "stoned".

The short term affects on this process are:

-Altered sense of time 

-Less good at solving problems or conflicts.

-Short term memory will be affected, but in different ways for everyone.

And these are all the negative short term affects of weed, so why is it illegal you ask? Let's take a look at the long term side affects. This is where it gets interesting because the long term side affects are not really understood by our scientist, some say it decreases your IQ with an average of 8 points i you use it daily for at least 5 years, others say it will stop you from having healthy baby's. But are these claims true and how do we know?

Some say that you could get breathing problems again this is probaly due to inhaling smoke not to blame the weed for that, it's your own choise that your smoking weed instead of eating edibles as example.

So if you compare these negative affects with the negative affects of alcohol, tabacco, caffeine or even sugar you will see that weed indeed has way LESS negative affects then all the other legal drugs. And keep in mind weed also has ALLOT of positive health and mental effects that the other LEGAL drugs just don't have.

So please dont hate on the plant
