Why Cannabis Is Not A Harmless Drug

Cannabis is used by anyone from curious teenagers to midlife-crisis afflicted grandparents

. It is considered appealing due to its toxicating effects and is used by many, recreationally. It is also used medically and even by those who use it as a way of assigning themselves identity. It is really just dried up leaves of the cannabis sativa flower along with stems and seeds. It is consumed through smoking, eating pure, or an ingredient.

There will always be risks around cannabis. It does depend partially on how much and often you take as to how far that danger affect you but essentially, cannabis, apart from some medical purposes, is never a good thing. When smoked, it contains five times the amount of tar than a normal cigarette. It also contains a number of carcinogens because it doesn't go through the filter like cigarettes. Those who take it regularly are not uncommonly diagnosed with severe coughs or chronic bronchitis.

Cannabis can also afflict on the user, psychological addiction. If starting recreationally or a regular user, it always bears the potential of growing into a full-on addiction. A number of artists naively rely on it for creative inspiration instead of relying on their true talent and inherent ability to use their imagination. Others have claimed that it has helped them regain confidence and to deal with other psychological issues. But that comes at a higher price and one they may not discover until down the line.

Tetrahydrocannabinol aside, cannabis is found to contain other psychoaddictive chemicals. And due to its toxic effects, it weakens motor skills and has been known to cause road accidents. It can also decrease both memory and perception. Less commonly, it has also been a cause of mild schizophrenia.

So even considering taking cannabis for the first time is certainly not a smart move when you take these dangers into account. And for the same reason, existing users should look at how and when they plan to stop.
