Marijuana Use Doubles in U.S., But So Do Problems

[rado]

I laugh about that as well. Trying to split hairs and label the feeling differently based on intention. Not condemning marijuana use by any means.

I'm far from trying to hide it or putting it down to make it look like it's just ok. My point with smoking and the claiming effect it has. Well certainly can be achieved by smoking a bowl as opposed to smoking many bowls. I'd rather have one beer or glass of wine as opposed to a 6 pack like most or more.

Rado you ever worry about the lung aspect of it? With cigarettes people worry about lung cancer and rightfully so, but people never seem to mention the danger to your lungs with weed. Is is less dangerous then cigs?

[blm]

The amount of tar is significantly worse with pot. Using a vaporizer is far better.

Why is it that the lung aspect isn't really talked about? It's almost as if people see smoking a joint as "green" and "natural" while cigs are seen for exactly what they are.. shit.

I'm not against weed by any means, I just think people need to be completely real with themselves instead of seeing something for what they want to believe rather then the reality.

I personally would never put anything in my lungs. If I was gonna use weed it would be eaten in a brownie. :P

Only by the people smoking them, lol.

I despise the feeling of not being in "control" of my body. I don't even like to be drunk. I can't understand the attraction to some of the shit out there.

Last night I went to Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios. One of the haunted houses was 3D and you walked through what was supposed to like going down the rabbit hole. It was the weirdest thing ever. If that is what acid is like, I can not understand the appeal!!

Everyone is different some people can't handle getting through life being sober.

You can control yourself on weed though.

Thats true tar from any kind of smoke increases risk of lung cancer.

However head and neck cancers are not increased and one study in 2009 showed a decreased risk of neck and head cancers with moderate marijuana use.

Study: Marijuana Smoking Does Not Promote Head and Neck Cancer

And eating an edible is not a good idea it makes it much much stronger and longer lasting. I did it back in the day and nearly called 911 till my friends calmed me down.

I don't worry about it, no. Funny because I do run ED and it's always a minimum of 3 miles and at times, 4 miles. I honestly keep a pace of 7:40 the entire time. When I use the treadmill, I use same speed for pace and increase to 1.5 degree angle to stimulate road running. I've thought about what my times would be if I didn't smoke, but not enough caring for me to quit:grin:

I don't see it as green or natural. I just see it as if I were smoking a cigar type of habit.

Agreed....Although some people can't control themselves while high.
