Is it that bad to smoke marijuana?!


Question: Is it that bad to smoke marijuana!?
Ive got an option to smoke a joint with a friend tomorrow in a controlled setting!. Im kind of curious, but understand the possible health risks, and those with addictions and it being a "gateway" drug!. Is it really that bad just to try one!? I mean isnt it kind of like raiding your parents liquor cabinet for the first time with friends!? Except maybe a a little more addictive and costly!?( controversy about which is worse, alcohol or marijuana is big)!. I mean I just want to try it!. Im not going to be like instantly addicted am I!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Marijuana is not a highly addictive drug!. There are hundreds of people who smoke it occasionally!. Its the persons conscience decision to smoke pot!.
Interesting fact!. Right now, its cheaper for me to buy a bag of weed then it is to put gas in my car right now!.
Weed increases your body's formation of white cells which can help you fight of sicknesses!. (Why it is used has a healing drug) It also gets your metabolism going which is why people often get hungry or have the munchies!.
Different kinds of weeds can give you different kinds of high!.

However
Weed is illegal!. You will loose your licence if ever pulled over high!. Weed does damage the lungs!. (If your going to compare it to drinking alchool damages the liver)!. Weed does increase the heart rate, moving the blood in your body faster which can be hazardous if you have high blood pressure!. (Drinking lowers your red blood cells which makes the blood thinner)!. Some experiments claim to have found a clear link between brain damage and weed, where others have not!. (Bienge drinking has been medicaly proven to shrink the Hippocapmus in the brain, responisble for memory loss) Weed is also a relaxant, the person smoking does become relaxed and with constient use May become lazy!. (Where as drinking can often make you aggresive)

Add: Just wanted to clear up the fact that the coming down from weed does NOT take days, and it doesnt make you all messed up, you are just a little tierd!. As well that its much more expensive to get drunk!. You only need to smoke more and more weed if you have smoked it ALOT and built up the 'immunity' to it that heavey pot smokers get!.

I don't think Marijana is anymore a gateway drug than alcohol!. It doesn't do you any good though and is really an expensive waste of money!.
The initial buzz of giggling soon wears off and withing a year or so you end up doing bucket bongs and stuff getting completely monged out and starring at the wall for 4 hours!. This leaves you wondering where that $50 went and you would have got better value for money out on the beers!.

One significant factor about many illegal drugs is that unlike alcohol where you quite clearly feel when you are hung over, you don't always know when you are coming down from drugs!.
The comedown can go on for several days and lead people to seriously question your inappropriate behaviour which you are completely oblivious too!.

Let me see, its very bad for your health, it has 3 times as much times tar as a ciggarret and kills thousands of brain cells!.
About gettin hooked on it you dont have to worry much, unless you do it alot alot over and over then you can get hooked!. but marijuana unlike cigarets has no nicotince so you wont get addicted but it can become a very bad habbit!. honest opinion, dont do itWww@Answer-Health@Com

Okay, so like the DARE program scared of me out drugs so I didn't touch any!. But I promised my friends I'd smoke on Senior Trip and I thought, you only live once, might as well try it once!. Normally people don't get high their first try, I didn't and I think thats why people do it again!. But honestly, I think it depends on a lot of factors on how bad it can be!. I'm not addicted or haven't tried anything else!. I mean, they use it for medicals reasons sometimes don't they!? I really don't think its that great of a drug!. Just be careful when you do it and it seems like you are in an controlled environment!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You'll either like it or hate it!. But if you do decide to try it you don't really have to worry about it turning you into some kind of runaway who can't live without a fix!. You can't get addicted to marijuana like you can with alcohol or caffeine!.
It's worth a try if you're a level headed type of person who doesn't freak out easily!. I've not smoked for a few years now but I did it a few times with friends in college!. I had both good and bad experiences with it!. Much of it does depend on your surroundings!. As long as you're smart enough not to do anything stupid that will get you caught or someone hurt!. And despite what most people say you will have control over your own actions!.

Sometimes you see things so clearly you don't want to stop!. Then, eventually everything gets kind of hazy and smoky if you know what I mean!. Experimentation is life but bad habits can suck if you get my drift!.!.!.Don't get sucked in and you should be fine!. Try it from a vaporizer and make it healthy even!.!.!.!.just don't stumble, stronger men than you have fallen to the sweet leaf!.

Its not addictive at all!. Alcohol is alot worse in all aspects!. I agree with the person who said live life while you can!. Its not a big deal!. Its not even really like a drug so being in a "controlled setting" shouldnt even matter!. You dont hallucinate or anything from pot!. I also agree with the gateway personality comment!.

i would say definitely not!. trust me!. there are grave consequences!. 1) you can easily get addicted!. 2)it can kill you and make you extremely ill!. 3) its illegal!. drugs are wrong and you should not do them!. its your choice!. and if you make the wrong one then you could ruin your life forever!. drugs are bad!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Its really no worse than alcohol when you think about it, but its illegal for a reason!. You really have no idea what people could put in it and everyone always tries it just once, then once becomes another time, and another!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

just Do it their not as bad a cigarettes their actually better for you!. If god didn't want you to do it he wouldn't have gave it to us!.
Only thing that i hate about it is you always get hungry after ward!.

P!.S doing it from a bowl or a joint is the best!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Not worth it! Consider your consequences prior to doing it!? If you can write down on paper what the worse case consequences will be and decide you can live with that, then I would say go for it! But honestly, I do not think you will be able to!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

More people have died from, and become addicted to, alcohol, than ever from marijuana!. If you'd be willing to take a drink there is no reason for you not to!. It's not good for your lungs though!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No way!.!. Ive had more then my share over the years!.!. Enjoy life while your still young!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well, too late to answer! But yeah, it's exactly like raiding your parents' liquor cabinet!. The thing is, though, you don't know what the out come of that will be !. !. !. I mean, no alcoholic ever started with the intention of ending up on skid row, he began by raiding his parents' liquor cabinet too!. So you took a risk then and you're taking a risk now, becuase no one, not me, not you, knows what's going to happen, whether you'll say "Huh" and never do it again, or just do it occasionally, or end up a functional stoner, or a wasted stoner, or go on to meth and Heroin!.

But, you know, life is full of risks, besides which you've already done it, so what the hey !. !. !. I think what I'd really like to say having been through this is HAVE FUN but keep it occasional and don't get sucked down into the hard drug whirlpool, each new thing you try you don't know what it will do until wham, youre stealing your grandma's church money!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
