Our society would collapse even further. If you give cannabis to someone with a history of schizophrenia, yeah it could make it worse. Give cannabis to me and I guess according to "studies" I will become schizo after long-term use? Well, its been 30 years of heavy usage for me and the negative effects better get here fast. Who said that? No, that is not what I said. The same way that the fact that you smoke raises the stroke risk factor or the cancer risk factor, smoking weed raises the mental disorders risk factor. It is not a sentence, its a raised risk factor.

If people are concerned about long term mental disorders then why are we still selling opioids. That’s what I want to know.

It is a matter of weighting the risks and rewards. in the opioid balance, the rewards outweight the risks so we use them.

zztop911 1,609 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 There are many examples of where man has extracted the active ingredients from various herbs and plants where the results has been basically positive. Aspirin is a fine example. My opinion is that the various opiate extracts DO have serious downsides. Cannabis could very well be in the same category as opiates if the vast different elements are extracted. My Grandmother was a pretty good herbalist. I wish I'd paid more attention and inquired more into the things she said. I'll always believe that cannabis, when used for medicinal purposes, is best used in whole form and ingested orally.

DavidCore89 7,404 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Smoked it from age 14 to 30, pretty much every day, the strongest stuff I could get my hands on (cheese, stardog, gorilla glue, etc). It seems innocent enough for years and then the reality of the damage it does will kick in eventually. I used to defend it at every opportunity, would ignore the negatives and try to glorify any positive, same as any other smoker will, but one day you'll get the light bulb moment. With the man-made stuff on the streets these days, there are no positives. It's not natural anymore, because people want the strongest stuff available. So any testing is near irrelevant due to such high THC levels in what people are smoking. Most smokers are in denial about the risks, damage and the amount of money spent. Often take criticism of cannabis personally, etc. I've been there too. Honestly, quit while you can is my advice. It's a situation that you can't win. You'll either go broke or things about you as a person will start to change as your ever-increasing habit will never be satisfied. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/9771-do-you-smoke-weed/page/3/#findComment-202997 Share on other sites More sharing options...

See..............That is exactly what I've never understood about some people that smoke pot. Are those the same people that would do the same to other drugs, but have chosen pot? Maybe the reason some people smoke pot is the underlying reason behind that mindset occurring. I smoked recreationally in my youth and from time to time in different time of my life. Since the increasing pain from the degeneration of my injuries, I've used it to help relieve/lessen the pain. "Getting High" is not my goal. Some may understand what I'm trying to get across. I totally get what you're saying DC. I've watched people on youtube smoking like freight trains.I'd be totally zonked outta my mind doing a tenth of what some consume. I really don't think I could get like those people. On occasion, I cut out some of my daily meds for several days at a time.I do this just so my body doesn't get used to them. I hurt like hell those days, especially with the increased damage, but I haven't increased the doses in over 3 years. Maybe it's the same for people that become alcoholics. With ever increasing legalization, I feel thorough research is becoming far more important. Quote I only grow in living soil! Because Fat Buds Matter!

Are those the same people that would do the same to other drugs, but have chosen pot? Hard to say for sure from experience as I've never taken other drugs as regularly, just recreationally. I guess a lot of people have heard a story of someone starting on weed, developing a big habit, and when the weed doesn't have the desired effect any longer, it often progresses to hard drugs. Of course, smoking in moderation or to relive pains might not lead to smoking shit loads, developing health issues or spending thousands. That's quite different to the weed smoking that I experienced, it was purely to get as stoned as possible. IMO any effects of drugs (and booze) are addictive, maybe not all physically. If you like the feeling then you'll probably be back for more Edited March 21, 2019 by DavidCore89 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/9771-do-you-smoke-weed/page/3/#findComment-203011 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Con 5,719 Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Sometimes things are unfair. I just saw that a person who interviewed me years ago for a job is now the director of a cannabis dispensary. The same guy who told me he couldn't give me the job I interviewed for because THC was found in my ur*ne. I hope my wife gets her card soon cause I want to visit him. I always believed he had the power to 'look the other way" back then when my test came back positive. I know there are rules still in place but it got me a little upset just now thinking about how the plant was used against me and now some people are benefiting professionally. Maybe I should stay positive instead and ask him for a job. lol. Oh right, I need a Pharmacist Technician degree or they wont even interview you. lol.
