Does smoking weed make you stupid?!
Question: pot, or does it make your memory worse?
Answers: pot, or does it make your memory worse?
Weed doesn't make you less motivated, or more stupid, or anything of that nature.
It doesn't kill brain cells either..
"Fact: None of the medical tests currently used to detect brain damage in humans have found harm from marijuana, even from long term high-dose use. An early study reported brain damage in rhesus monkeys after six months exposure to high concentrations of marijuana smoke. In a recent, more carefully conducted study, researchers found no evidence of brain abnormality in monkeys that were forced to inhale the equivalent of four to five marijuana cigarettes every day for a year. The claim that marijuana kills brain cells is based on a speculative report dating back a quarter of a century that has never been supported by any scientific study."
Temporarily, it can make things harder to remember [like remembering a sequence of numbers], as it can impair short-term memory, but it's something that goes away after the effects leave. Nothing is "permanent".
It's also important to define what you think is stupid. Marijuana effects everyone differently. Someone may experience the same high as another person, but one person will try to be funny and have a blank stare on their face and resort to couchlock, while the other goes out and does something productive. It really is up to experimentation to see what you make of it. Just remember that it IS illegal and you can get caught [realistically, it's probably the most dangerous thing about marijuana -- getting caught with it].
Educate yourself about it, learn more, and then decide if you want to try it, or whatever. It's up to you.
yes
huh?
No, it makes you more smart. It lets you see past all the bullshit....like government. Its all a game really, nations are there to control people. The only place nations exist is in the mind of man. The system sucks, it is made for and by the greedy. There is no moral reason why millions starve and others have a millions times more then they need. Did you know that 1% of the population controls 50% of the worlds wealth and resources
No. There are no scientific facts to back any of this up.
no it affects your short term memory for a short bit such as forgetting a phone number or somthin simple.you dont lose brain cells or go into denial or anything.long term use may affect short term memoy permantantly ....still not that big of a deal
It does slow down your reaction time and kill brain cells and I have to say, everyone I know who smokes pot would certainly bear up the idea that there's something going wrong with them.
It DOES kill braincells, but so does lightly thumping your head.
Technically it does make you less intelegent, but other than that, it makes you lazy and less motivated (and anyone that argues with me on that is just a pot-head in denial and you know it).
