Does weed really kill brain cells ? My uncle smokes weed all the time, he's 42, fat, greasy, without a job , no wife, no kids and lives with his parents. He's also a christian. When I confronted him about all of this he said I wouldn't understand.
He's gay
Just like anything in life, moderation is the key. If all you do is smoke 24/7 some of your brains neurons start to slow down overtime, if you dont oversmoke nothing is wrong with weed. (coming from a 6 year stoner)
>>751560813
you killed it.
>>751560587
>I wouldn't understand
I probably wouldn't. Pot doesn't make you a loser, losers tend to smoke pot. If you were a loser before you got high, you'll be a high loser.
>>751560813
And even when you start to get the brain fog you can quit for a month or two and it goes away.
>>751560872
this person is correct and so is >>751560813
>>751560925
Haha disregard all that shit I'm going out of my fucking MIND!! My fucking MIND is just FUCKED right now holy shit tutti fruition I'm in a fucking high ass condition! Man you gotta get high and jack off! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
>>751560587
all addictions are bad
>>751561174
yeah but you can't get addicted to weed, RIGHT ?
>>751560587
I've not smoked for long, literally like a couple months and every time I smoke a spliff I feel super groggy for ages after, durations as long as even a month at times.
>>751560872
>brain fog
This literally never happened to me except for a few months when I first started smoking regularly in highschool. I was maybe 16 or so.
People who say they don't remember highschool because of weed, probably don't remember it because of weed combined with regularly drinking.
They go together like yin yang but it's not an every weekend thing, you'll get stupider than if you just drank every weekend.
Alcohol is like vladmir lennin to your braincells, weed does not.
>>751560587
No but stupid people tend to use drugs like this.
>>751561257
you can get literally addicted to anything if it has a chemically rewarding response and do it enough/make a habit out of it.
smoke weed every fucking day you pussies
>>751561328
>I first started smoking regularly in highschool
>I was maybe 16 or so
>you'll get stupider
Uh oh, anon. Firstly, smoking before your brain is fully developed (i.e. ~18-22) greatly increases the chance of developing certain mental illnesses like schizophrenia. I didn't start smoking until I was around 19 and I've quit several times for jobs, or tolerance breaks, or whatever.
Secondly; Stupider isn't a word, stupid. Kek. You're not helping your case, here.
>>751561587
>stupider isn't a word
weak bait.
>>751561257
well addiction can be psycological as well
It actually stimulates cell growth of the neo cortex so you become literally smarter if you some weed

stoners go to jupiter to get stupider
I would say it kills motivation if not smoked in moderation.
I've been smoking since 14, 22 now. Straight A's through school. Didn't do college. Currently working as a junior programmer working on a new POS system.
>>751561812

Right. I speak English correctly, and it makes me autistic. I'm not going to sit here and brag about what I've accomplished in life on a Phillipian Water Polo forum, but I'm not autistic. Language is how we communicate. The fact that English is your first language and you can't type or speak it properly tells others you're a moron when you try to communicate with them. Go do some dabs and quit maymaying replies to me. It won't make you correct, but it may make you forget how shitty your life is.

English has rules. It's "more stupid." Get over it.
well... take your own conclusions pall
>>751562611
It's fucking text, not an accent.
>>751562611
I was just saying. The rule in English is that if a word has two or more syllables, you use more/most and the original form of the word when forming the superlatives. You didn't have to get all butthurt. Oh, and yeah, dialects absolutely are a thing. Go for a job interview and use only Ebonics and tell me how it goes, champ. Shiiiiiiiiet.
>>751562833

I love weed but have massive anxiety.
How to smoke a bunch without losing my mind?
>>751561587
Stupider and more stupid are both accepted
Just like cleverer and more clever
Don't worry it's not very intuitive
I guess it depends on you as a person
Started smoking at 13, before i started i wasca morbidly obese faggot, i lived in filth and had social anxiety. Just a total slob with no value
In 1 year of smoking pot i started hanging out with people, kicked my social anxiety, went from 272lbs - 185lbs, had my first GF since fucking kindergarden and got laid a couple times, i also became a cleaner human and started doing better in and out of school.
I smoked all the way till 4/20 of this year and had to quit because of medical conditions i got from alcohol withdrawls (quit cold turky after a year and a half of drinking everyday during college)
Since i quit i will say that i hate being as clean as cleaning while high was always a pleasure!
I grow and can't even smoke, so in my experience alcohol is WAY fucking worst then cannabis!
Also, it does kill brain cells, but, it also supports new cell growth. So its kind of a double edged sword. Smoking in moderation is actually beneficial, if you smoke alot every day and abusing your going to see mental fog and other problems, specifically effecting short term memory.
It has always been beneficial to me, but others may have different results.
>>751563047

The point is to speak the language properly. You like being understood when you speak, yeah? English has rules. This is why everyone with more than two brain cells fucking hates ebonics. "Shiiiet, nigga. We bees poppin' fawtys and gettin' lit like kangz" illustrates to the listener that the speaker is fucking retarded. Just because someone, somewhere, disagrees with the centuries old rules of the language doesn't mean you should just fucking go "Oh, ok. Bob1537 on Reddit says it's fine. I'm the stupidest."

Dumb thot.
Protips for anyone having anxiety attacks or paranoia: there's two types of flower we can smoke, indica and sativa.
Indicia, or in-da-couch, makes you sleepy, euphoric, and "stoney" AKA heavy and wobbly. Sativa is more energetic, hits the head and makes you think.
Stay well and far away from sativa if you have panic attacks, social anxiety, or paranoia. Also, look into terpenoids, they affect both taste and high as well, and can affect psychosis in different ways.
23, been smoking for 10 years.
I work in a kitchen 40-50 hours a week, every week.

Smoking kills braincells, but vaping (at the risk of u looking like a faggot) does not. Also you get to be high as fuck anywhere and people cant smell it.
>>751561328
Solid guidance, would tell kids/10
Anything fucks you up if used compulsively. Any substance or activity that completely hijacks your thought process is not good without moderation.
>>751564081
Vaping doesn't smell like weed? I'm an every day user (holy shit tutti fruition) and I've never smelled it.
>>751560587
Did some academic research on cannabis in the past - although not relating to cognition
Most effects seem to be reversible within 1-6 months after you stop smoking, *providing* you started smoking after your early 20s. If you smoke when you're under 21-23 years old, then there's a chance things may be permanent.
This is why I root for legalisation of cannabis, but with a legal age of 25

I actually deal with Hispanic people who know very little English and they're always greatful I know Spanish so I can ease what they need. Sometimes they asked me where I learned, but I've never had one insult me because I use formal Spanish. Most I got was a lecture from a chick about how a pen is a "pluma" and not a "boligrafo" but she was like Puerto Rican, so whatever.

No, cannabis does not kill brain cells. In fact the opposite seems to be true in that cannabinoids act as neuroprotectants and may even stimulate the growth of new neurons. (Citations lacking, I know).

These all tend to be side effects of too much THC rather than a problem with weed in itself. It's rare for these things to happen to someone smoking higher CBD weed.

Hello andrew
Cannabis does not kill cells.
If you smoke all the time your of course going to have memory recall degredation. Youre stoned! But dont let them feed you half-truths. This recall is not permanently affected (unless you remain stoned forever)
Anyone telling you cannabis is bad and does bad things to your brain and society is shilling or regurgitating false information to virtue signal. Cannabis is not harmful and allows you to explore depths of your mind and work thru existential problems. This makes you think for yourself and thus you are a threat to the ideals of big government and their constant effort to enslave and stupify you.
Think about it. All legal, alcohol,cigarettes, soda, processed foods. They all kill you. Its proven. Cannabis has caused zero deaths in recorded history and is well known to expand the mental scape. Its risks are extremely minimal. Yet its illegal and has so many people in jail. Stop being stupid.
I'm smoking around 6 joints a day. I can say I'm addicted
>>751563805
>It's just lazy and unmotivated people.
Like yourself? At 23 you should be thinking about more than just the kitchen. Wasting 30 man hours a week in the pub restaurant really is no achievement.
>>751563805
no it really helps make people lazy and unmotivated.
>>751571777
Holy trips of truth.
>>751560813
this.
same goes for alcohol for example. a little bit every once in a while gets rid of the slowest and weakest links in your brain. its like thinning out a horde of animals. if the sick and old one get killed, the whole group can move quicker.
>>751572174
no weed amplifies many mental states. People who are prone to lazy behavior or schitzophrenic tendencies also have these traits amplified. Paranoia is not caused by weed but by a system of fear of the police. Weed merely amplifies the fears and feelings already present. Muscle relaxation and increased hunger are affects. Not motivation and desire.
>>751572174

brain cells aren't a "one and done" type thing. They die, and more are grown.

>>751572669
No I'm just saying that literally is where most ofit comes from. I'm from the midwest even and that's where it's coming from. After the crackdown on pseudoephedrine its been cheaper for them to flood the market with cheap meth. Trust me.
>>751572848
It absolutely has to do with a predisposed sense of fear that the police or whoever is your oppresssor that having this plant and consuming it will get you in trouble. Wether thats conscious to you or not, it will be expressed when high on cannabis. Paranoia is amplified, it is not created by the experience.
>>751560587
Weed kills brain cells in the hippocampus. Look it up, it first increases the activity creating many connections, and then they die or something.
It creates a lack of motivation among other things in chronic long term users

Treatment of neurons with THC stimulated a significant increase in the release of arachidonic acid. We hypothesize that THC neurotoxicity is attributable to activation of the prostanoid synthesis pathway and generation of free radicals by cyclooxygenase.

Actually it is.... it literally triggers areas of the brain associated with paranoia in many people. I smoked for years and years and then it started making giving me panic attacks. My girlfriend works at a local 72 hours hold psych ward, mostly all short term residents and about a third of people are people who come in having panic attacks or freaking out, mostly because of dabs but still. It indeed induces feelings of paranoia and panic in people though.

Just trying to convince you to not use weed because weed will cure all your problems and they won't be able to make any money

16 year daily stoner here.
I own a flat, have a gf and a job.

It Does not necessarily mean that it's the weed..
>>751576393
Living in that feel. Not a good feel.
>>751577304
It always depends on the grade stuff you're getting, but if its high grade, that's a good price for where I live
>>751573354
this
weed might make a 0.01% slower but the good outweighs the bad
rather weed as a way to past time than alcohol for me
>>751577096
Nice image.
Completely supports your worldview.
No sources.
Complete lack of nuance.
No watermark?

>>751577304
An ounce of what? I can get glue from the dispensary for $330 an ounce here in Michigan. Check out leafly.
>>751578578
Duuuuuuude that's such a good deal you're such a fucking uberstoner
>>751578662
I don't know if it is or not. I'm a patient, I don't buy from dealers.
how much you guys pay for an oz weed where u r?
i pay £200 - hertfordshire
>>751578768
Dude that's so fucking awesome, you're awesome.
>>751579097
Thanks, friend. You're awesome too.
>>751579205
So fucking cool, you get a better deal then everyone else in the whole world I bet it's probably the best shit too right ?
>>751579478
I order off the menu like everyone else.
Listen friend, you're doing that high school thing where you tell a guy how cool he is to get him to be self-conscious and embarrassed and eventually leave. You're literally in a weed thread right now trying to mock weed. If you want me to be the awkward one, I can try to help though. Here's a pickle Rick gif, surely someone will come help you mock me for even having this saved.
>>751579873
No I'm mocking people like you
>>751580342
You mock people like me...who buy weed? In a weed thread?
>>751560587
Recent studies suggest "excessive" marijuana consumption prior to age 25 can mildly, but permanently inhibit long-term memory retention duration (but not time-to-memorize).
Anecdotally - I personally observe that marijuana consumption is not a cause of being a loser / wasting one's life, but a symptom. That is to say that people who are already slow, losers, and wasting their lives away seem more drawn to marijuana as an escape from their otherwise dull lives.
You don't see a lot of brilliant minds or highly successful people smoking pot, cigarettes, or getting drunk off their ass, and I'd posit that such a trend exists because those people don't have such a shitty like that they look for escapes like marijuana, cigarettes, or booze.

>You don't see a lot of brilliant minds or highly successful people smoking pot, cigarettes, or getting drunk off their ass
you're either a shut-in or a child
get out there and experience life
>because those people don't have such a shitty like [sic]
you're way off track
go outside more
>>751580959
Yes you do indeed.
>>751580602
There's tons of brilliant minds and successful people in history that regularly used heroin, meth, and barbituates. Your point ?
>>751580959
Thanks for catching my typo.
I never smoked pot, here I am at 21 making 120k + benefits in a cheap area in Delaware, doing my dream job, at one of the largest banks in the country. Only 1 guy in my graduating HS class is doing better than me, he went into pre-sales engineering in the DC metro area.
A lot of my colleagues are getting themselves work experience, or a traditional 4-year education.
All but 2 of the kids I knew in highschool who smoked pot are still living with their parents working minimum wage jobs or unemployed.
The 2 that aren't? One moved to Colorado and one died of a heroin overdose in 2015.
Marijuana may not be the cause of being a loser with a shitty life, but there's no arguing over the correlation.
Speaking from experience:
The melatonin I took last night to get to sleep (I'm an insomniac) has me feeling more fucked up and less intelligent than any amount of marijuana I've smoked in the last 11 years.
Like I'm pretty much incapable of being productive right now. Slept 12 hours, feel like I need to sleep 12 more.
>>751581342
>dream job working at bank
you poor soul
>>751581381
Melatonin is pussy shit, if you wanna get fucked up on sleepy medicine, take like 600 mg of diphenhydramine
If you want to be able to get shit done, try modafinil
>>751580602
You're surrounded right now by people who are habitual weed users and you don't know it because they don't trust you enough to talk about it in front of you.

>>751581548
I'll penetration test you. Bend over faggot.
>>751581342
correlation is not causation faggot
if youve ever seen a pothead, youd know they get slow
>>751581527
I'm surrounded by people in their 40's and 50's.
While there's no arguing that over half the country has tried it, less than 1/4 of Americans over age 18 currently smoke marijuana, and they are disproportionately likely to make less than $50,000/year.
>>751581702
My sweet summer child.
>>751581612
You're missing my point. My first post on this thread was >>751580602. My literal point was that while Marijuana might not cause people to live shitty lifestyles, it's clear that it's associated with them, and that perhaps marijuana consumption is a byproduct of having a shitty life.
>>751581702
Yeah, same with alcohol right? You're a moron though, really.
>>751581783
The proof is in the pudding, and I have no desire to be part of the pudding bowl that straddles the poverty line. I'm not some spineless pussy who can't handle stress. No point in ever using it for me.
>>751581929
Correct, that's why I never drink more than one drink when spending time with people at a bar, and never drink solo. The difference is that alcohol kills way more and it should also be illegal, not just weed. Cigarettes should be illegal too. Vices in general are for spineless pussies who can't handle stress and their own emotions.
>>751581834
I actually know more rich people that smoke weed than poor people. I guess I don't hang out with shitty people, so my experience is different.
>>751560587
>>751582030
You're a young man, and being wound up this tightly isn't healthy. You're going to end up making $800,000 a year working 60 hours a week until you retire with a house on a lake and a really big boat and be one foot in the grave now that you've got the time to enjoy it. Life is not a race to achieve some sort of economic milestone and then die. There's always someone around with more money or a higher social status than you. The day you stop competing against them and start being the best "you" that you can possibly be, your life will change forever.

I know that cognitively, it's just hard to accept the idea of not chasing a higher and higher salary. I'll slow down eventually, I just don't know when.
>>751560587
he probably drinks heavily.
and does meth.
>>751580468
just remember:

Omg so true, so true. You're a real inspiration, I bet you're single
>>751565951
You suffer from physical withdrawal with weed stupid. Nausea, mood swings. But keep telling yourself whatever. I've known people that were convinced they were healthier because they smoked weed. So in the end people are stupid enough to believe what they want to believe
>>751580468
No you are the regular person who brags about prices and for good shit, it's always the best shit that you have and always cheap
>>751563120
That's a pathetic bud. Your opinion was discarded.
>>751573289
Just keep wasting your time and money and keep smoking weed, loser.
>>751582531
you're addicted to money, and money is the root of all evil so that should be illegal too
>>751560587
No. I know lawyers and artists alike that smoke.
>>751573754
Just keep believing your own bullshit breh.
>>751584156
The _love of_ money is the root of all evil, and that's only true if you take the bible as fact and not fiction. In America, the love of money is what keeps our economy one of the largest on earth.
