marijuana

[lol123]

hi.im not promoting this first of all....
well a couple of my old friends have been asking me if i wanted to smoke weed with em.i always wanted to expearinace it and i have asked other people and theyve said yes u should do it for the expearance.so i wanted to come over here and ask if i should do it im just worries of getting addicted and stuff.:confused:

[iam14]

nah mate i wouldnt recommend it cos my bros gf tried it once and realised that its great at first but then got addicted and she fucking her brain up

[alsoknownas]

im 17 an not tried anything drug related including ciggies and even large amounts of drink.

[theOperaGhost]

I definitely do not recommend it. It has no addictive chemicals, but the high is addicting. It is not physically addicting but it is mentally addicting. It fucks up your life...don't do it.

[byee]

Blandino, you know, there's just so much going on for you right now, I seriously doubt that you need another issue here to deal with, trying pot certainly can complicate all that other stuff. So, I'll break a longstanding rule I have with myself of avoiding telling people outright what to do: You shouldn't be trying pot.

Focus on your school work, focus on self control, slow it all down a bit and practice getting your house in order there, be responsible with the committments you already have.

[Requin]

Just no. It's serioulsy not worth it. All it does it make you feel high for a bit..then it goes and people want more and become addictive. Ignore your mates...just don't do it.

If you want a care free life then let it go and don't take it. But if you want your life ruined...

[Φρανκομβριτ]

we can't answer that question unfortunantly. However....


It is not physically addicting

It is not harmful in any way if ingested orally (in cookies and such)

[Halibut]

i have done it a few times. i have never really felt any diffrent. just a tad more hyper and weird lol. i would stay away from it though. that kind of life can lead to nothing but problems. depends where you live, where you get it from etc but i have decided to tottaly ban it from my life ..including all drugs and smokes :)

[thiscityisdead]

dont do it, it screws you up for a long time, ive been sober from it for 3 months and counting, i couldnt help myself the first time, my life sucks and people told me it would make it better, wich it did until the high wear off, then you need more, and more, and more, it gets ADDICTING, but if you just refuse to do it and never turn to it as a option anyone can quit.

hope i helped/influenced =]]

[Fiending_the_freedom]

you dont need to experiment with drugs just because your friends do it.

[Nihilus]

Do not start it. It is really bad for your body but mainly the brain and lungs. Don't try it even if they say its safe. Just don't do it, its not worth it.

[Capote]

I honestly believe you should not trust anyone who gives you bad advice. If I were you, I would stay away from the drugs, bro. Let's use an example. Let us say that you do try marijuana. You get addicted. You do realize that you will bring shame to your parents. Kiddo, simply stay away. Resist!

[Callwaiting]

I'd have to say, based on your other posts, that it wouldn't be a good idea to try it at this point. The risk of getting physically addicted is basically zero, but when you have a lot on your plate it can become a problem to stop.
When you're less stressed and comfortable you might find a time for it, but you shouldn't be pressured into doing it at all - I'm glad I didn't start up when all my friends did.

So yeah, just enjoy life drug-free for now!

[Hippie]

You shouldn't smoke marijuana just because of friends. I've been smoking for 4 years now, I started because of depression and it helped me through hard times. But you will get hooked with a mental addiction; or at least I did. I can't last a day without it without getting extremely depressive. Like right now.. I'm almost tearing. I've been clean for 1 week since I was busted. And I can't stand this. So no, don't try it unless you really have a need to.

Smoke weed because you want to. It doesn't matter what anybody else does. You can only become mentally addicted to it, but not physically addicted. It depends on the person you are and how you can handle it. Weed isn't bad for you; not like all the negative propaganda or what your parents tell you. Chances are, your parents probably smoked. Research and learn about it. There are many medical benifits. Scientists have discovered new data that disproves the myths of memory, cancer, and so on. Read. Learn.

Fuck his parents. They're not living his life. He is.

Dude, we're talking about weed, not injecting heroin.

Fuck his parents. They're not living his life. He is.

The people who've taken care of him since he was born? You have to realise that other people's opinions matter, especially those of people who are a massive influence on his life. He's 14 and you're telling him to disregard the people who raised him because they're not him?

Sorry if this is a bit of a negative post, but I also have to say that next time when you post, just put all of what you have to say into one post.

Of course he's going to use his parents as an influence, as well as other people, but he shouldn't take their word as holy scripture. He's going to have to make up his own mind and live his own life. There's only so much his parents can do. Sometimes, in certain issues, he's going to have to be an individual and decide for himself.

"Fuck his Parents" is a hyperbole for his actions. Don't take everything so literal, even though it is hard to on the internet.

And no, I will post as many posts as I want.

[Callwaiting]

That's why I said he should take into account their opinions and values, he doesn't have to be a clone or a puppet to them, but obviously he should respect them.
The statement "fuck his parents" had a pretty obvious meaning, being that he shouldn't take into account his parents wishes whatsoever.

And however you personally feel about double or triple posting, it's still against the forum rules and will get you in trouble if you keep doing it.

I did a huge project on Marijuana once. I look into a lot of stuff about it, because I want to fight for legality.

I have done it, and I can say it's only psycologically addicting. You will want to do it again. It's not like cigarettes where you cough everywhere, so people are inclined to do it again.

The "Gateway Drug" thing is also partially true. Some people will say, "Marijuana just leads to other things, it never stays there." I have friends who smoked Marijuana for a long time. One example, Smith, smoked Marijuana for years. He flat out stopped. He decided it wasn't worth the money so he just stopped buying it.

Unfortunately, it can still mess you up. You may do stupid things when you're high. What goes up must come down, and the higher you are the farther you have to fall. It's tiring and really not all that fun.

Although I fight for legality, it's still not something I'd recommend. Alcohol, tobacco, pot, or whatever drug you're thinking of isn't worth it. You're only happy for a while, then everything gets way worse.

.

you cant say he WILL do it again, because its only psychologically addicting (which every substance can be) that has a greater chance of people not doing it again. over half the people that smoke or have tried it dont even like it there first time, a lot of people dont even get high the first time. Just because you dont cough as much doesnt mean people will do it again because of that. And anyone who hasnt smoked before probably will cough there first time trying pot.

[jamesman50]

dont do it

[FROSTBITTENWINTERPOT]

I am not promoting marijuana but I do smoke it. It isn't physically demanding but the highs are self-addicting. don't cave in to peer pressure. I tried it cause I was ready and wanted to for my own reasons. Although, I do disagree with the claims above that it will lead you into a druggie downfall. I have been smoking for 4 years and I have been a top 10 student every year in high school. I work almost 40 hours a week and I have a very lively and fulfilling life. It only goes too far far when you allow it to. I am not telling you what to do, I am just telling you how I feel about it. I hope this helps.

[Θάνατος]

Thanks for the insight here. It is appreciated when some one new will tell us about their experiences.

I have to agree with you the feeling from being high is awesome. I have smoked it twice and I won't smoke pot again because at my job we have random drug tests once a month and I don't want to lose my job over it.

[Ninja Noob]

Ignoring the idiotic posts above, I'm sharing my piece of mind and proven facts.

For everyone telling people you get addicted, YOU DO NOT ADDICTED. You only have cravings or it can become a habit after having smoking for so long. But guess what? Do you get craving for pizza or cookies or your favorite drink? YES! Like anything, you get cravings. It's not like a marijuana craving will be more intense than your cookie craving. It has no chemicals that can be more addictive then ones inside your sprite. Now am I saying this drug is harmless and you should do it? Noooo. It totally kills your short term memory but that is about it. Now whether you are responsible to experiment with this or not is different. If you can realize that you can't have good things everyday like this, than good for you. If not, I recommend you do not try it. I'm not encouraging this. Whether you follow my advice is purely your own mind.

Except anything can become a mental addiction..

And food CRAVINGS is actually your brain telling you: I need vitamins!

A desire for pizza is different xD, though almost always whenever we really want some food, we just need some vitamin that is in the food, even if its unhealthy food

[Noodle]

lol the thing the guy above said is true...well all of you guys are true... i mean i have just started marijuana and like i know i shouldn't because what every one eles says but i wanted to see what it does probably not the smartest thing to do lol but... well there is no more for me to say because the thing was allready said it isn't an addiction like most other drugs it is a craving to want... oh and i have a question

My Question:

Scince marijuana is a drug made from an herd shouldn't be legaized?(i am not saying it should be done or promoting it in any form to be used if i am sorry) i am just sayin that it is used for medical porpuses right? like the treatment of cancer(brest i think?) and anorexia nervosa so...?(and if it looks like i am promoting this drug you can delete my post i just want to know the answer to be honest i am really cusrious)

It's actually any chemical compound that your brain can crave. It actually isn't different at all. Since marijuana isn't addictive and along with pizza, you can get the same cravings. You'd acquire a taste for pizza that you like, and you acquire a feeling for high. It really has no difference.

And let's try to stay on topic lol.

Not everything that grows naturally shall be legalized. You wouldn't go ahead and consume some uranium since it's natural? And for the herb part, look at opium. Opium is an herb, and guess what derives from that herb? Heroine! It's like saying to legalize heroine but marijuana is incomparable to heroine. And that explanation is the government way.

The real reason why is because it's been illegal since the 1800's to keep the Mexicans out of towns. There would be so many illegal immigrants and they would bring their 'Devil Herb' with them. Ever since then, people got the wrong perspective of it. The effects of alcohol are actually worse the marijuana. But in all respect of the law, I shouldn't be saying this.

[HeatherBreannaa]

I've been smoking pot for five years and I can honestly say it hasn't messed up any aspect of my life...yet.

I still do well in school, I have maintained wonderful relationships, and I have never gotten addicted to it, physically or mentally. I know this because I quit for more than a year at one point and I was not once tempted to go back to it. I got back in to smoking pot because I believe that it is natural and spiritual. Yeah, I'm a hippie, sorry. That is just me though. You could be affected in a different manner.

However, you are the only one who can judge whether you want to try it or not.

I'm not trying to promote the use of marijuana, but I see nothing wrong with enjoying it occasionally.

It's your call.

[xXJDXx]

Marijuana cannot be physically addicting.

[GanjaChronic]

first post here, might as well save it for a subject im quite experienced in.
First off, i smoke weed everyday. Though at your age (if you're fourteen) i wouldn't dip my toes into the drug pool yet. If you really want to try it, wait till your in high school. And you do start craving it after a while, i cant go a day without smoking some herb, but i dont care because i have become enthralled with cannabis culture and its cultivation, and accept it as part of my life.

note: not promoting, just sharing some experience.

[rette_mich]

It is possible to become addicted. It is that simple.
It is a stereotypical `because everyone is doing it´ situation.
I can promise you not everyone is doing it.
I honestly hope that you will not take that risk, because pot still is a drug and it still is illegal.
A lot of things could go wrong.

[Cindex]

Views:
I have done pot. I enjoy it. I will do it again. I don't care if it hurts me.
You shouldn't do it.
It will hurt you're short term memory.
My blood alcohol level is currently around 0.5. No, I did not miss a zero in there.
All of that is true.

[Commander Thor]

My blood alcohol level is currently around 0.5. No, I did not miss a zero in there.

Eh?
You'd be unconscious, with erratic breathing & heart rate...... Or dead.


@ the OP: Instead of asking around here (Where you're obviously getting biased opinions on the subject, instead of straight facts), you should go do some research for your self. Learn more about the drug, and what effects it has on your body.
(And now for the biased opinion(But while not promoting)): Personally, I think Marijuana/weed/pot/dope/whatever is fine. Been smoking for 3-4 years now, and it really hasn't affected me that much. I'm still an A student, (Well, ok. I have ONE B) but you get my point. (Still not promoting here) Marijuana is fine, if you want to smoke it, fine, if not, fine also. But do your research first!

[Toilet Water.]

Actually, it isn't very addictive. I've had a lot, and I'm not addicted. And it doesn't really fuck you up, just sayin'. I'm not promoting it or anything, so chill.

Yeah, this thread has been bumped about 2-3 times. Please don't bump threads people. They died for a reason. Plus, once their old their most likely no longer useful to the origional poster.
