Cannabis, or marijuana, is often advertised as harmless, non addictive, and virtually side effect free. That isn't really true though. Cannabis can have a number of side effects including anxiety, lung disease, increasing blood pressure, stomach pains, addiction, sleep disturbances, and a variety of other problems that we will get into today!

I am pro marijuana 100%. But when people say “there are no negative side effects at all” drives me nuts.
I smoke it for my essential tremors.
Biggest negative is mofos really just be lethargic potatoes that play games all day
Source: myself
As with all psychoactive substances, it has negative effects. Just as caffeine and especially alcohol. The reality is this: It's way less dangerous then most other allowed substances people comsume daily and it has some health benefits other drugs like alcohol don't have. If you're skeptical, think about this: How many drunk people have you seen that beat each other and then compare to how many stoned people you've seen. There, easy.
I had years to suffer because i was addicted heavily (psychologically). It was and still is a very tough fight but I am very happy to be able to go out and have long days climbing at the rock, finally working and doing a lot for university.
When smoming a gram a day back then I barely had enough energy to go for a walk, instead I would sit at home playing origins all day or recording music when I had enough energy.
Also no creativity loss in music through stopping. I went even more productive.
@@birbdad1842 Alcohol is the substance doing the biggest social damage in the world, it is the devil.
For my body personally weed is worse tho, as I am addicted to weed and cant control myself, whereas i am not addicted to alc, so my enemy is weed... sadly... I would love to be able to just smoke occasionally... But it always leads back into wake and bake in the end...
Not necessarily related to the video, just wanted to thank you for setting the example of presenting the facts regardless of personal bias, and being professional. I've been watching you for almost a decade now, since a teenager and in that regard you've indirectly taught me a lot about how to conduct myself properly and professionally
Same. I started watching this man when I was 12 and I'm in grad school now 😂. He still looks the same too
Same dude! Drift0r is the 🐐
I really relate I’ve been watching since he first started
What? its just as related to the video.
As a daily user, I'm really happy you made this video. People who smoke, more specifically younger people who smoke, never want to acknowledge the downsides of it and think that they're totally ok. Smoking pot is arguably the safest vice a person could have, but that does not mean that it comes without possible side effects.
while i do agree to an extent i think it basically comes down to the person, some people just take it different.
@@TheRealPots Oh absolutely, its subjective to the individual smoking it for sure. Theres broad similarities that can be made from stoner to stoner, but some people just have negative reactions to it unfortunately.
@@stonedperson97 I am sadly one of those unfortunate people, I'm borderline allergic to it. My first time smoking pot was with a bong, one hit and I was in the bathroom throwing up for 2-4 hours and afterwards I passed out. At first I thought it was just because it was my first time and that I took to big of a hit but sadly that wasn't the case. At a later date I tried taking a small hit off of a friends blunt but again I ended up in the bathroom. It seems my body just doesn't like it.
@@TheRealPots true. I honestly can't use Marijuana because I get so anxious it's crazy. I also get panic attacks. It's funny because I didn't try it until I was 29 and it was the first time I ever experienced really bad panic and anxiety attacks 🤣 so it was a big no no for me.
Like what i smoke dabs
Thank you. I suffered from several psychotic episodes in 1999 induced by cannabis usage. Its great that you put this info out there next to the other onzes.
A previous relationship of mine broke down due to weed, I’m all for recreational and medical use but when you watch somebody smoke 8 joints in a day everyday, you watch them gradually decline in their mental health and their personality completely changes. For people to say there are no negative effects is highly ignorant. This is a great video. She also had the syndrome with the vomiting etc, at the time there was minimal research into it too.
Are you talking about cyclic vomiting syndrome….my wife has this
@@Rustyshackleford752 yes mate. My previous partner had it after smoking soo much weed. She lost loads of weight and couldn’t stop being sick or keep anything down.
Jesus man, idk how people can do that honestly but every person is different.
@@jamiemills6070 well my wife acquired this affliction after getting pregnant with our only child and hasn’t been the same since, weed is the only thing that keeps her any kind of level thiugh
I’ve had pretty spooky derealization. Granted, it was a mix of weed and anxiety meds that triggered it (essentially a kind of xanax that doctors say NEVER mix with other substances). It can range from amusing to frustrating to scary feeling like your life isn’t real, but most days I take it in stride. It helps me treat life like a video game and do things for the hell of it, because what kind of game would it be if you just plateaued and didn’t do anything the whole time? Don’t know if others have experienced this for a long time, this started over a year ago for me.
I really appreciate you taking the time to talk about the downsides marijuana, not in a "be scared drugs bad" sort of way but in a very objective, informational manner.
Weed makes me paranoid and I've even had a panic attack because of it, something that almost NEVER happens in my regular, daily life. When I bring this up with weed smokers, even friends and family, it's not uncommon for them to tell me I just smoked the wrong strain and I'll feel fantastic if I try a different kind. They won't acknowledge that it can effect people negatively. People just need to be more informed and acknowledge there are downsides to weed, however small, minor or rare they may be.
Very well put together! Great video man
You also forgot to talk about a major problem that occurred with me and that’s a huge brain fog, it was hard to concentrate and really try to study academics and was one of the main reasons I quit
That's depersonalization
Nice vid bro, great information. Keep it up! 👍
I have not seen a video of yours in a while , I instantly clicked on this for the title. This was definitely worth the 23:40 mins, awesome job on the topic!
Thanks man:)
Dissociation is so scary and is 100% real. It’s like a loop you don’t know how to stop either, I would describe it as “lazy town”
Brilliant video mate!
Thank you for the video ❤
I’ve had the best games on call of duty high…
DRIFTO HAPPY THAT YOU CHANGED YOUR HEALTH & channel content to drop gems likes this keep up the great work bee. Smoking since 14 I am 28 & most of these facts were unknown & I am a very research knowledgeable typa person fit work out 4-5 days out of the week
My favorite thing about your content is how objective you seem to keep things. Everything from the stats you'd give in the old Black Ops 2 weapon guides all the way to this topic, it's all facts and any opinions are clearly stated as opinion. I respect it
Hey driftor LONG time fan of the channel, this was a great video. I'm a connoisseur of sorts for over 2 decades.
And every topic you have covered I have either experienced, and you've shed more light upon them.
It would be incredibly fascinating if you could reach out to those people that have suffered that depersonalisation.
Their thoughts and opinions , especially their personal experience on it.
13:29 My friend's cousin has drug-induced schizophrenia. He started smoking weed to control the pain of his rheumatoid arthritis, but now when he smokes he has psychotic episodes where he thinks mysterious people are out to get him, so he freaks out and leaves town on a random bus. We've found him days later in another state.
Not a good situation and getting him to quit is extremely difficult.
Great information and video 👍
Someone I know gets similar psychosis episodes but with Cocaine
my guy you are a GENIUS. Gameplay in the back whilst giving a speech
I didn’t know it… but I actually needed this video… thank you
Man, you could keep doing content like this and I would absolutely still keep coming back. You have a great scientific brain and research everything you talk about and I'm sure many other viewers love this about you. Do what you want but keep up your consistency with research and we'll still love you for it, cod or not
@Text Admin+❶❻❽❷❹❷❷❼❻❺❸ you're kinda sus af
Very glad you made this video to inform people
Thanks for making this video. I use to say I wasn't addicted but now I realize I am emotionally addicted mostly because it makes me feel not depressed and gets rid of my anxiety, when you feel good thats what takes you.
yeah weed is 100% addictive when i was 17 i was like BOOOO no way but now at 26 i can tell its definitely addictive i quickly found out after a while you get extremely restless and easily angered if you cant get a smoke like i just cant sit still and focus on anything without smoking a lil somethin first
@@masterjenkins632 yeah I feel that when I'm on break at work I always want one lol
Thanks for this video, I’ve experienced the good side effects, and the bad, and very bad, I was hooked for a while, and have now quit cold turkey
Great vid!
You know watching this video very much helped me and made me feel better about marijuana and the effects it has on you and I’ve definitely had some of the points he mentioned for example most of us experience it getting anxiety is one thing and it’s good too know it can kill you but still nevertheless thank you for all the valid points you have made about it and I’m not gonna lie I am a stoner but I don’t smoke everyday and taking rips off dabs will be less before and I don’t know if it hasn’t settled in yet but I am actually pretty smart for being a stoner and hey man thanks for this video it made my days better from now on and much love and support too your channel you have made many peoples lives better
Great video. More ppl need to accept this. I'm glad I never thought about trying this stuff.
Drift0r you’re such a good UA-camr, I’ve been watching you since the black ops 2 days. I’m really upset that your videos haven’t been showing in my recommended recently, so I’m making sure to have notifications for you from now on. Such organized and thought out content… something that very few produce nowadays. I’m actually taking a “tea” break right now and I always feel better and less sluggish when I am perfectly clean. I suffered from a lot of bronchitis waaaayyyyy too many times and I think I’m my adult life I’ll stick to the edible form, since I’ll be able to afford it. Thanks Drift0r.
Thank you for sticking around this long!
Good video Bro! Long time super good video and I smoke 💨 a lot of weed thanks bro !
The pop tart thing at 7:35 was funnier to me than it needed to be xD
Also, I definitely suffered from emotional addiction to pot when I was younger. If you took all the diagnostic criteria I met and switch weed with alcohol I’d have been an alcoholic. I lost my job and almost got kicked out of my parents house because I couldn’t stop smoking. Obviously I wasn’t physically compelled to smoke but I wanted to continue even when faced with the near certainty of these consequences. I had no sense of moderation either, so a quick toke at midnight before a 7:30 shift in the morning turned into a 30 minute session and staying up till 3am eating junk food. That said, I have no issues with smoking pot now, so my emotional addiction could’ve been mostly attributed to my young age, immaturity, and mental health factors. It still had a big impact on my life, regardless of the reason. Threw me off track for several years before I got it together.
It fucked with my emotional regulation once I had a child I heavily relied on it to get through being a 19 year old father while working full time but I seen a therapist and now work out to help with my emotions and smoke for fun every once in a while when I play video games I feel you man
I’m alright with the legalization of marijuana, but what drives me absolutely insane are the number of comments I’ve seen from people INSISTING that “marijuana isn’t a drug, it’s a plant!”
🥴
God, that and the whole “marijuana isn’t addictive” nonsense. Yeah, it’s not chemically addictive in the same sense as heroin, but it’s insanely habitual. Most people who smoke weed do it all the time because they miss the high, sounds addictive to me. This is coming from someone who does it sometimes but turns down the offer more often than not
Have you ever had that argument with people (irl or on YT doesn't really matter) where they say that and you fire back with "yeah, and so is Opium and look at where that got us" and wow do they _not_ like that.
Like I'm all for legalizing almost anything as long as A) people are held accountable for it, B) I'm not held accountable for someone else's incredibly foolhardy choices, and C) there are regulations on what is being sold (because things like Coke makes people ((usually)) violent and etc) so no one can cut in dangerous products to get someone to buy a more addictive substance. Basically it's like "you can buy a soda at a liquor store without having to buy any liquor nor are you pressured to buy liquor from said store" if everything is on the table, that's the (from a consumer pov) safest way to do things. How all of that will be taxted… who knows.
But I do enjoy whenever people bring up that weed is better "because it's natural" but freak the hell out when I like… talk about taking vitamins as a thing I do. 🙄 Also I know more than a few people who 100% think they know what they're doing with mushrooms and... holy hell I'm not a chemist and I value my own sanity so if I get near anything that is "natural" (when did this become such a huge defense of marijuana anyway? It's been an argument I've had since college in 2010) it's going to be exactly as far as weed and not step into things that can absolutely permanently eff with my brain chemistry. Why people who _aren't_ chemistry degree havers, or worse, _who flunked_ those classes think they can microdoes… why? Why do they think that's safe?? Who lied to them?
Pro Weed for sure but you’ve been very objective which I appreciate it because people either demonize or talk holy about it w no side effects. For me personally the only downsides I’ve personally realized is slight memory loss, loss of appetite/increase of appetite and in one case extreme vomiting Jesus that was the worst day ever but surpassingly working out high is one of the best experiences I’ve ever felt and it works amazingly for me not sure about others! But ty for just being a very interesting and very genuine person for all these years of watching
I’d call myself a marijuana enjoyer. But people who either try to say it’s completely harmless, or their agenda is just “alcohol is worse” pisses me right off.
I’m glad I watched this, you are so informative.
Well alcohol is worse lol
I use delta 9 everyday am 22 and started at 17, been smoking daily for ab 4 years, with slight gaps in between, but I get very vivid dreams, and can remember them and detail them the next day to people
Great video as always drift. What really resonated with me is the iq lowering aspect. I’m in my early 20s and have been smoking pretty heavily since I was 17. So I get the dulling effects of both the use at a young age and heavy dosage. This sounds like I should stop, and that’s probably true. But the problem is, it’s the only thing that even slightly helps with my depression. I was even able to acquire a medical card for this reason. Before trying weed I’ve went through multiple different antidepressants and therapists that just did nothing or worse. So unfortunately it feels like I’m stuck in a sort of catch 22 where I have to either live my life walking around dead inside where I don’t enjoy anything, or hit dabs all day to be happy at the cost of my long-term logical thinking and lung health. I mainly stick to dab carts these days with the occasional joint, and I can feel the effects it has on my lungs (throat is sore/wet sometimes; coughing). I’d do edibles but unfortunately they have no effect on me. Not quite sure why I typed all this out, just wanted to get it out there and hopefully you or someone else might see it. Keep up the good work man.
I empathize with you. I have been sober for a while, since it seems to make the people I care about less concerned about me, but I had a time where i would hit anything with thc just to feel like maybe anything had a purpose. I hope you find happiness, and can walk around a little lighter
I empathize and identify with you. Fr
Lol 9:43 “so DOOBIE careful” 😂
for me, trying to lose weight but also using marijuana medically, to help with anxiety and insomnia, its really hard with the munchies. Excellent video driftor!
If Drift0r switched gaming related content for topics like these and his lucid dream series, I wouldn’t even miss the game stuff. Drift0r you’ve been my longest subbed channel, that I don’t think I’ve ever left and came back. Appreciate the years of consistent, great content. Thank you.
I know of a guy that smoked weed before, now he’s crippled and can’t live a normal life. So sad
Thanks for the info…long time smoker and most of these I was aware of. One thing that did surprise me was the dream suppression…I am a heavy user and I dream like CRAZY. Have been disabled for 12+ years and use heavily on a daily basis and dream of my old job almost nightly.
I currently smoke, got diagnosed with depersonalization and drug induced psychosis, the stuffs real guys he hit the nail on the head. Was recommended to quit for 2 years but havent been able to shake it. Talk to psych nurses or therapists, psychiatrists.. they can help you. Be safe yall. Also, fentanyl is a common one used to lace, very potent and lethal. Get ur drugs tested if its from the street.
Great vid as always.
Very informative.
I like the editing of this video
I agree with your points 100%.
I am a heavy user, or was for a few months and I can say without a doubt if your a child/teen or are a pregnant woman, don't smoke weed. Also depression...
...depression can be amplified by weed a ton. That's why when I feel sad or am thinking about past events I don't typically smoke or pull out the pen anymore for heavy use. I find it only smoking half a bowl/3 huffs of the pen can just relax myself enough to just sleep on it and think about it with a clear mind. But that's what I do, everyone is different. Other than that great video!
I disagree with the depression part IV had suicidal tendencies and attempts and other mental health issues and it helps massively but I think if you don't have any pain or mental illness then you shouldn't smoke it
@@sonnyhutchins3141 funny thing you should mention that. I have a acute pain syndrome I can't remember the name of, need to get that checked out by a doctor sometime. Basically I'll either feel like I'll throw-up and or will have a random pain somewhere on my body. It can be literally anywhere but it mostly happens in the torso area of my body
Edit: not dying and it doesn't keep me down for long, like 5-10 mins at most
@@AndyLeeVlogs savage man hope it doesn't hinder you too much
@@sonnyhutchins3141 naw, unless it's serious I'm not in any real danger
@@sonnyhutchins3141 you can watch my streams and notice in some I get either super sick to my stomach or I'll get random pains
Hi Driftor we’ve talked before because I have thoracic outlet syndrome also and I’ve been looking into ways to relieve the pain some more. Is delta 8 helping with that pain specifically?
It helps with pain and blood flow but only temporarily
@@Drift0r thanks
I quit smoking Mary about 8 months ago but before that I was some sort of high for 99% of the past 8 years. We all can recognize its still fantastic, but I'm glad there's finally someone who both recognizes that there's still negative aspects about it AND has the platform to finally make that known to the smooth brains who automatically act aggressively to anyone saying that there are in fact unfortunate negative effects of consuming this beautiful plant.
Edit: The reason I stopped smoking it is exactly because of those negative impacts but I have a very unhealthy lifestyle and once I get that under control, I plan on resuming my use in moderation because it absolutely can cause a better quality of life mentally even with the unfortunate negatives.
Drift0r, I love the video, I support legalization 100%, we need to know more about it to help mitgate the risks overall. However. When you said “dumb as hell” I lost it cause your texas showed so hard on hell, keep up the great videos man and thanks for the great content and the laugh.
Hey bro! just want to let you know i’ve been a long time fan since mw3 in depth days and you’re still one of my favorite content creators 🙏 keep up the great work !🔥
Same here.
DELTA 8... has been helping a lot with my chronic pain, but it does make me sleepy and hungry, which is a small price to pay for pain relief that works.
Thank you so much for the Delta 8 review video and great information. 👍
Get sativa
Any recommendations of cbd gummy’s for arthritis pain and sleep issues that are legal in Louisiana. Marijuana is not legal here unless it it medical.
Excellent video
It’s strange I’m contemplating using for my newly diagnosed chrons disease. Been watching you since the bo2 in depth videos. Never thought another coincidence to find you again would involve this 🤣❤️
Smoking once is very unlikely to cause harm and will probably let you know if it helps with Chron's or not.
@@Drift0r only discovering the layout of what the disease is in of itself, smoking helps the chronic pain. I can eat and gain weight back, just as there are many pros, can come with many a con. Wishing the best for you Dr1ftor ❤️
On that note too living in the UK the street risks are as bad as anything it’s still illegal here! 😳
Just got to the part in the video where he's talking about CHS! Thank you so much for spreading awareness! More people need to know this, it's very debilitating. Warm showers are temporary solutions BTW! It only calms it down for a while but it will come back! If you continue your usage patterns it will come back :( so go seek medical help as there are prescriptions that can help more than hot showers :)
As I’m smoking weed I watch this, I’ve also been feeling like quitting. I will sit and watch 23 mins
Moderation is key. Overuse of cannabis does have mental health effects and can contribute to depression.
Yup
Agreed, I am a heavy user but I'm not addicted and I agree to the extent that moderate use can lead to depression, especially if your going through a ton of trauma or had trauma to a limb or body part. Weed isn't for that, drink instead
Would a quarter in 3 days be considered high dosage?
Thumbnail had me geekin
Does delta 8thc give some of the effects of delta 9 thc?
How does it help with Crohn's? Everything I've seen it says that it makes it worse?
Idk about y’all but I love driving while high. Windows down, music off or low, listening to my car exhaust note. Something about it is just hella satisfying.
Also I find that no matter how much weed or carts I smoke, I never become addicted to them. I often take tolerance breaks with ease. Never had any withdrawal symptoms.
Good on you man keep up awesome content go Texas
Honestly I didn’t know about half of these things! I didn’t start smoking heavily until two years in college but now it’s more of a once or twice a day type of thing. I will say though working out high or better yet smoking after a working out personally helps me with all the soreness that comes afterword. I even smoke before I dance because I feel like I “feel” the music more lol but I have experienced an increase in heart rate and the dreaming thing kinda blows. Overall very informative video and I do hope they do more research on marijuana in general!
I had depersonalisation from smoking everyday, the worst thing I’ve ever been through, I’m okay now but still get it for brief moments,scariest thing ever, happened right as my mum died so I think that’s the reason, smoke about once a week now and it still happens but only for a few minutes, if this happens to you please stop now for at least a few weeks it’s the worst thing ever if it gets out of hand, so glad you meantioned this
I like these type of videos
Great video
Not gonna lie, the COD gameplay in the background while talking about weed is cracking me up lmao
Pop Tarts with Cool Whip... this is a game changer that needs its own "In-Depth" episode before it gets nerfed.
One point he didn't mention is the paranoia. Also I've experienced most of this, the dreams are kinda wild it's crazy how much you start remembering after you stop smoking
Very very true! On all the information!!! But I did learn more I had no idea they could get moldy ! But yes it’s good and bad . Now that I’m older I can tell it does mess with my lungs and mental health and blood pressure. I used to be able to smoke like crazy . I was that person who just got more focused but now I think it was the depersonalization kicking in because I have notice it a lot more .
I use 20mg delta 8 edibles here in Texas a few times a month. I didn't start using delta 8/marijuana regularly till I was 21-22. I have fortunately never had a problem using these products.
Im a very frequent smoker, and I still have very long, eventful dreams, sometimes vivid. Am i the 10% that still gets dreams?
As someone who used to have a drinking problem and quit years ago, I think its crazy that alcohol is legal and Marijuana is not. Like 95k people die a year in the US due to alcohol.
You can't base alcohol or the like on your own experience. Because your own experience isn't a good way to learn. I don't drink alcohol every day or even every week. I usually have 1-3 drinks each month. And no one in my immediate family drinks alcohol often. And there's only one person in my extended family who has an alcohol problem. I'm not alone in my alcohol consumption.
A lot of alcohol problems has to do with internal problems. Not the alcohol itself. It isn't inherently bad.
@@noobbotgaming2173 Alcohol itself is literally poison for your body, there is definitely something wrong with it. And the big problem is society pushes it as something great and its completely engrained into social behavior. When people drink too much people cheer but in reality people are walking a road to destruction.
I was prescribed baclofen recently for my spasms , reading the side effects it said in large bold writing . Many patients have tried to kill/harm themselves while using this medication 😳 it alters your state of mind . After 1 hrs I felt a change and stopped taking it , I smoke weed even though it’s illegal in the uk . I only get munchies 😂👍🏻
Just don't go overboard with it. Once or twice a day is enough. Every hardcore weed smoking friend I have, got psychologically addicted (they had an extremely hard time quitting with up to a third in weight loss) and they look and sound like they're asleep all day. You're definitely getting lethargic after years.
Baclophen is a weird one-lots of people here in the States like to prescribe it as an alternative muscle relaxant (as if it wasn't more or less addictive/causes less falls etc than the other non-opioid muscle relaxants) and yet, for me, personally, I react really poorly to it. It's more in a "I'm allergic to this" kind of thing (because I get sick in a similar way to antibiotics I'm allergic to and it's mostly my body trying to get whatever it is out of me) but my body full on rebels. That being said, there are a lot of muscle relaxants/medications that were for X thing (like seizures) that were discovered to be good anti-spasm medications that absolutely cause an uptick in self harm/death (which makes sense, I suppose, that something like Neurotin can cause that, since it's first discovery was to stop seizures). Honestly if you read the back of the box of anything that legally has to put it there (so afaik a vitamin company doesn't have to list the negatives of valerian root) something like Ibuprofen (Advil) sounds like it'll turn your insides inside out when we've all probably taken some Advil when we've gotten hurt and needed to reduce swelling-assuming nothing else we take conflicts with it.
There are a lot of medications that alter our brain's chemicals enough that it's unpleasant but not so badly that whomever is taking it ends up as part of that warning label. As far as Baclophen altering your state of mind… so does weed, just differently. I have friends who can't function because they are so used to having their emotions blunted from trauma (because why go to therapy and smoke weed when you can just smoke weed) that they can't get off of it without breaking down. :/ That we (as a species) haven't studied it enough to know how it might effect people who have gone through XYZ (such as people with PTSD) it makes it so people who smoke/take any amount of weed are doing it because it's "a natural remedy" as opposed to other prescribed medications that have been studied to know how it effects people. We don't have tons of research into weed because it's illegal to know how many people might have tried to kill/harm themselves or might have accidentally hurt themselves because of anxiety related attacks because it's not legal to study.
I started smoking at 18 and this is the slimmest and most in shape I’ve been. Weed actually helps with my appetite sure it causes you to over eat but whenever I don’t smoke I don’t eat anything at all so it balances out and I’ve actually lost weight without trying
A 17 year old Indiana kid did die from Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome related symptoms. I have the condition myself and have dealt with it for the last 5 years after first smoking for 10 years with nothing bad happening. I manage it now by only smoking 4 or 5 days a week in moderate amounts and avoiding dabs at all costs
I'm emotionally dependent on Delta 8. It reduces my inhibitions, which is the only thing I have ever wanted in my life, and it got me out of suicide. I usually don't go any higher than 30mg since it just lowers my blood pressure and tires me out, but the 25mg pills I take on a regular basis really bring out the fun parts of my narcissism. I have gotten a lot of insights from my experiences with Delta 8 and it is low-key scary seeing the mental imagery symbolizing my cynical narcissism corrupting every innocent and pro-social idea I've ever had and making it look cool.
Spoke to the Devil a few times on this substance (played by Robert DeNiro, naturally) and his main points are:
1. Keep your head in reality
2. You are as powerful as the ones you respect
3. Grandiosity is hubris
4. Don't feed the trolls
5. Despise the free lunch and never do favors
I actually really enjoy sleeping when going to bed high. Not sure why but it's the best feeling. I have had some vivid dreams going to bed high lol.
Very interesting stuff, I have seen people around me change after they kept smoking and smoking and smoking.
I'm not against it at all though, I am for it really, but it certainly is something that needs to be kept under control. Addiction hardly ever does any good.
It's not for me though, regardless of the strain it can put me into a full frenzy anxiety attack. Not all the time but definitely worse than 50/50. Which sucks because I didn't have that the first time and I quite liked that first experience.
When I was about 17 I was a bit more independent and started to smoke weed everyday about 5 times a day. Definitely experienced some psychosis that I never want to go back to. It didn't derail my life, but the world became a strange and creepy place for me. I still smoke everyday, but only once when I get off of work and have no errands. The key is to be sober more than you're high so that you brain actually knows what it's normal state is.
You should make a separate video talking about edibles and how important it is to respect them and take a proper amount so you don't green out and have a panic attack
I Too get nightmares horridly vivid death one at times, and yeah suppressing dreams, is a blessing
I have servre IBS constipation and puked for over 10 years and doctors couldn't fix it and overtime the stomach acid I kept puking caused damage to my espshguas. Stomach cancer and colon cancer and stomach issues in general run through my family. At this point the doctors are blaming my marijuana use saying it caused all of this from the start. I know that's not true because of the family but how else can you conivce a doctor?
Know a friend who smoked in his teens. He has coronary artery disease. I don't know if it's the cause or something that's exacerbate the condition, either way he has problems with stress management and yet he remains thin as a pencil.
Honestly I want to quit just for the dreams.
I'm a lucid dreamer and have been practicing for a few years (my interest in dreams started way before that though) but my lucid dreams are few and far between because of how much weed I smoke. I miss those adventures I'd go on. If I knew how smoking effects dreaming I wouldn't have even started smoking. Sadly I'm addicted and keep binging it for comfort

I suffered from chs (cannabis hypermesis syndrome) and it's not a condition you get for a couple hours. It's a recurring issue that only goes away if you stop smoking for a few days, some people have forever, for every time they smoke, some people recover (as myself, for now) and can keep smoking after quitting for a few months. The vomiting is terrible, and can be fatal, only because you vomit up to 40 times a day, and obviously that will severely dehydrate you, which is why one of the symptoms of chs is kidney failure. The condition can be fatal, but it's not the weed that kills you, it's the dehydration from uncontrollable vomiting which leads to kidney failure. It's a long lasting syndrome, and there has been a "confirmed" death due to it that i am aware, i am not sure though, but I am glad you mentioned this, maybe some people will watch out on how much they smoke
I use to have cannabis hyperemesis, it usually happened the morning after smoking and lasted most of the morning, it did not happen right after consuming
No negatives if you dont abuse moderation is key TO EVERYTHING

Yup. Found that out the hard way. You absolutely can get addicted. I have used it daily for the last two years. I took about a month break recently. I didn't notice anything until about the 3rd week. My anxiety was through the roof and had really bad insomnia.
Lucky for me, I never vaped nor smoked weed.
I quit smoking weed last month and before that, I tried dabbing for 2 weeks. Like 2 hits a day. Once I quit I had a weed anxiety attack and I couldn’t sleep at all until 7:30AM. I had major withdrawal symptoms. I couldn’t eat that much at all and I didn’t go out that much at all because of feeling anxious. I’m never smoking weed again. Plus it probably dropped my vitamins low because smoking weed makes you feel full so i didn’t eat in the morning. I only ate at work because I worked in restaurant. Also you will get anxiety if you have withdrawal symptoms. The first 2 weeks were tough but it gets better around 4
I would like to point out that you a vape the Marijuana herb. This helps avoids the issues with vaping the oil and burning the herb. Just watch the temp!
Thanks for pointing out the dangers.
I prefer to use a dry herb vaporizer. Which seems to be the most healthy way to "smoke" it from the research I did. Also got the munchies try using Listerine usually helps.
Huh, iv been smoking weed almost consistently sense about 16 or 17 and I'm 26 now and iv kinda been thinking my T might be low...I'll have to get that checked out when I can
Been smoking marijuana for about 26yrs and have never had any bad experience with it. Its been all positive for me. Dont over do it smoke responsible and smart and you wont have any issues with it at all.
I remember being depersonalized for a little bit sophomore year. Weird times
I had my bud laced with PcP years ago. It was the one of the worst experiences in my life
Yes I used to have absolutely 0 dreams and when I stopped it was awesome to dream again and yes they are very vivid
been wanting to quit smoking gas for a long time… its been tough ngl. but i have been using it less and less so hopefully quitting all together will be easier soon 🙏🏻
i actually developed chs (cannabinoid hypermethis syndrome) 2 years ago...i have been hospitalized many times due to the kidney failure because the nausea is so bad that i couldn't keep anything solid or liquid down... i would lay in the hot shower for days it was the only thing that kind of helped the nausea.... just very unfortunate for me because marijauna helped me with my mental illness's... some people don't believe it's real or exist or is caused by marijauna but it is.... it's super rare an even my dc said im his first patient he ever diagnosed with having it.... now i smoke maybe 1 time a month an im fine but anymore then that i will feel nauseous for like 3 days after an risk a full on bout an going back to the hospital... im still 100% pro marijauna but am glad that you brought it up because so many people have said it's not real
