Question: Could prolonged use & abuse of marijuana cause the brain to stop producing endorphins?
Answers:

Long term use of marijuana changes the pleasure pathways of the brain, so that you can have difficulty experiencing pleasure from other, non drug sources, and this can take a considerable time to recover from, even partially, and it can permanently affect short term memory adversely, and shrink the emotional centres of the brain, affecting the ability to form lasting relationships. It may permanently destroy the ability to perform higher mental functions, such as theoretical physics, or mathematics. The new strains of super potent marijuana are bred to have high TetraHydro Cannabinol, but it is at the expense of the levels of the stabilising cannabidiol, which are reduced accordingly. After quitting, there will be a huge void left by the absence of drugs, and that void will need filling, so have a plan in place for when you get over the physical withdrawal symptoms.

Accept that you are only human, and therefore fallible, but use that failure to re-double your resolve that you won't allow it to happen again.

I'm no doctor and don't have any scientific evidence to back me up, but from others' experiences and from what I learned so far: No. Absolutely won't affect the production of endorphins. If someone disagrees prove me wrong.

Abusing marijuana is nasty, and will leave it all damp.
