As America’s Marijuana Use Grows, So Do the Harms

The drug, legal in much of the country, is widely seen as nonaddictive and safe. For some users, these assumptions are dangerously wrong.

It has some benefits for specific conditions, Chemo side-effects and glaucoma are the most studied. But the culture is not healthy. Smoking weed every once in a while for fun is ok, same w drinking. The problem w both is when it goes too far.

Marijuana substance abuse is definitely a big problem due to the excessive THC levels in most strains. People get addicted to that instant euphoria instead of using it properly for medicinal purposes.

I'd say it's better to use hemp-derived CBD/CBG oil. They don't get you high and are extremely neuroprotective. They can also help people recover from substance abuse and control cravings since they are cannabinoids.

Leave it to some people to take it too far.

It's non addictive for most people. Others just like it too much.

It's consistently pushed for pain treatment, yet it does not contain anything that will treat pain inside your body. Your body has opioid receptors for pain treatment. Of course, there's so much brainwashing around that subject, you probably would never take an opioid! Heaven forbid, you'll get addicted!!! (That's not how that works, scientifically, either. Like I said, you've been brainwashed.)

Here's what I want to know, who owns the growing operations for weed? I keep hearing it's the israelis. I hope this is wrong, but I'm not holding out hope. Fucking jews control everything, including opioid production, I wish I was kidding.

Pain patients can become addicted but it's a moot point, just as whether a dying cancer patient on high dose opioids can become addicted or not.

jews have americans so addicted to mind/mood altering substances- including food and porn it's disgusting.

Yes, I was mostly poking the bear as far as the addiction part goes. You're correct, everything from booze to NSAIDs to anti depressants. I've heard overdoses on fentanyl are up over 600 percent, but fear it's much worse. Been too long since I heard that.

Point I didn't make, most people in severe pain are turning to the streets for relief. Doctor's don't prescribe pain medications anymore. You pretty much do have to be dying to get anything. It's barbaric. Millions of people are suffering. Insanity!

Guy I know has a pain pump that delivers pain meds directly into the spinal column. Without it he's bedridden. jewS healthcare is a criminal enterprise.

Opiod painkillers arent nearly as addictive as they're made out to be. They cause so much fatigue that unless your life goals involve "naps" and "watching tv in a drugged up haze", they're incredibly unappealing. Congrats, you have a brief euphoric effect followed by wasting the entire day.

And all that sitting around makes the pain worse.

Modern pot is so fucking strong it's scary. Plus, it can have all sorts of effects from sleep to hallucinations and out right panic.

Back in the day there was some weed being sold that had been sprayed with periquat. People realized quickly it was an herbicide and stopped buying it. Who knows what's on pot now days, but it aint harmless.
