Laziness, tarred up lungs, weight-gain.

That's pretty much it.

Cost - it's pricey

Addiction - the biggest one for me. If I'm smoking weed, I smoke it all the time, morning, noon, afternoon, and at night (and that's at a bare minimum). So if I'm spending a weekend with my family, I feel like a crackhead carrying my stash in an airtight container, and a small concealable pipe around in my pocket, and finding some way to sneak a toke every few hours.

I had to stop because of pretty intense anxiety. I'm sure that if I had access to CA Med Club weed that I could probably find a strain that agreed with me, but such is life.

Another drawback, although not directly related to the actual cannabis, was that when you constantly would smoke in a circle of 10-15 people, when one person is sick... most everyone got sick.

Weed makes me want to get up and go, so laziness isn't an issue, and I smoke worse things than weed, it doesn't help my lungs, but they'd still be bad.  I'd say the only thing for me is money.

It agitates my HPPD, but I like that.  I don't know what schizophrenia feels like so I can't help you there.

i could afford another car payment if i didnt have a monthly weed bill of 300$. but id probably either go crazy or be really unstable if i stopped. herb is almost like sleep to me, i need it.

then theres the ass hole dealers. i cannot find someone who understands proper business ethics as well as customer service, or ill find someone like that for a month and then they decide to charge me more because they know im a steady $$ source.

then theres the eating. since i eat so much when im high i never ever eat sober. i lose my appetite without my high, and get a tremendous one when i am high, so one extreme calls for another to balance it out.

i guess the only other downside to weed is me being too content with being alone like a hermit. sure i see plenty of people during the week, and have more than enough social skills, but weed replaces my need for interaction with other humans which is both good and bad. good because id probably be wasting my time with boring people anyway, and bad because i hardly care that im single without any prospects.

for me personally, when i quit the herb i quit my mental stability that opens up dark paths i could take, so im not planning on quitting antime soon!

Everyone on the face of the planet that can think is schizophrenic to some small extent, so yes.

Oh and about the weight-gain thing, for me, it's a good thing.

One thing I've noticed is I do actually get a pot hangover if I'm up too late smoking. Pot hangover involves just not being able to get out of bed because you're too tired. I really can't smoke after 1AM if I wanna get up on time for class.

It also makes me antisocial in a party situation unless I've had a lot to drink and very little to smoke.

Another kind of side effect of pot is that I only smoke at night time, as a night cap. I always get hungry. If I eat after about... 10pm my stomach will be fucked up for the whole day. DAMN YOU, IBS!

Money
Drug tests

Cotton mouth

Hangover

The benefits seem to outweigh the risks, but I can't smoke for fear I could be randomly tested anytime at my new job :mad2: I hate not being able to smoke. I'm not dependent on marijuana, but fuck I miss smoking and there's so many tiring days I could light up a nice bowl :thumbdown::sad:

Never schizo from weed, at high doses i have my fairshare of parnioa/delusion.

Can't be arsed with smoking green unless i've grown it myself or its grown by my mates who know what they are doing. Street green is never flushed properly and only varieties that are high THC or quick growing ever seem to come up. Also the shit is never dried properly or cured for even a week so theres no point. It used to give me bad paranoia and made me unable to sleep. Whether that was because what became avalible was primarily Sativa and the above factors i don't know. I'll stick to my imported solid which may cost alittle more but is a tasty chilled smoke, bit of manali or a nice bit of blonde...:thumbup:

Its a gateway drug, it will eventually lead to abusing mushrooms which will then lead to sucking cock.

Don't bother trying to argue, its science!

Going  by his grammar, I'd say he is likely english, in which case the quality of pretty much all bud in some (read: nearly all) areas is extremely poor. Though I'm going by second hand information on that.

Apathy, procrastination, health and memory are the main things for me...

I can't be assed to do much and it makes me not care about much either. Its one of those things, if I come home after a stressful week and hit a bowl, after that I can't even remembered what happened that week, let alone let it bother me :grin:.

It fucks my lungs for sure.. I've never been keen on smoking anything and a chronic weed habit is definitely not good for my lungs. It also destroys my memory...

Sometimes, depending on the circumstances (typically if I'm indoors) I get somewhat sketched out.. normally whilst 'coming up', but once I actually get into the high its fine (typically happens with sativa dominant strains).

Also, if I have obligations, I feel guilty for getting high (cause it makes me think in depth about a lot of stuff) and have a hard time enjoying the high.

i always thought blonde hash was shit ,thats why its pale
if your going to smoke hash its got to be soft and black

the harder and paler the more its tainted or chopped

give me thick nuggety hydge buds and the stronger dro smell the better

flushing and curing is critical tho

i guess like they say in brave heart

'you never can trust the damned british'

I'm no expert on hash by any means, but I've had "blonde" bubble hash that seemed like excellent quality to me. Maybe I just dont know what I'm missing though.:shrug:

Most of my friends come around when they know i have weed. Thats my problem. I don't like smoking with anyone, because they all just mooch off me. When i smoke, i take like 3-4 hits and im good and buzzed. I don't like getting stoned off my ass everytime i smoke, but my friends all have to get as blazed as they can every time. So sharing means everyone else smokes all my weed, then i have none later.

I have 1 friend in this world i know isn't my friend for any other reason than were friends. So i smoke with him whenever he doesn't have any, and he smoke with me when i dont have any.

I love me some imported solids but that stuff just isnt around. Ive had it a few times but bubble hash and acetone hash are much more common and widely available domestically. I had some imported stuff once and it had kinda a brown sugary but SUPER DANK smell/taste to it. I smoked it in my parents basement and they thouht a skunk got into the house. Fake blonde is quite common at festivals but easy to spot.

you look like a pothead, you forget lots of things, you will have a hard time getting a decent job.

nothin wrong with smokin bud, but being stoned at all times makes you pretty much useless.

If I ripped a bowl right now and went to bed.. I'd lay there tripping out.. I wouldn't be able to sleep until I got the bottom-of-the-tunnel-of-thoughts.

If I could afford to splash out then I definitely would get a volcano. I might have a go at mimicking the design myself, see if I can come up with something ghetto & half decent :grin:.

Yes I am english and yes its very poor quality at the moment. In 2004 there was a massive amount avalible and its gotten worse with police crack downs and the vietnamese gangs bringing down quality with their grows.
Yo ucan get some extremely nice imported solid if you know the right people and know what you're looking for. Also imported green is shite. Vaccum packed and often coated in Sillica to make it look crystally.

I used to get the munchies when I first started smoking but after a while it started to have the opposite effect and I lost a bunch of weight. It was probably because I didn't want to eat while high because it ruined the buzz and I was high all of the time. :lol:

Being arrested and treated like a criminal





Those are pretty much the only cons, in my opinion.
Funny enough, both of which are a direct result of it being unjustly illegal.

I don't find any faults with it really, as the addiction is purely a mental/psychological one IME, and any dependency and abuse of it is my own fault...
And like everything in life, moderation is key. You abuse anything to an extreme and it's not going to be "smooth".
That, and it's proven through thousands of years of use to be one of the safest drugs (plants) on the planet Earth. I take far greater risks eating a cheeseburger, or something.
The medical and psychological benefits I gain from pot far outweigh any potential cons.
Thus the greatest cons to smoking pot is the fact that it's illegal.
Which makes it expensive and makes me a criminal for doing what the fuck I choose to do to my body without hurting anyone.

Yeah, smoking pot all the time makes more people lose weight than gain weight, at least among the chronic stoners I know.  I don't know if it's the weed effecting appetite, metabolism, or both. :shrug2:

Same with me, when I first started smoking i'd get the munchies then after a while it would stunt my appetite quite a bit. It seems to work that way with most other people I know. Except for one fat bastard who can eat anything, anytime and anywhere regardless of how much hes smoked or snorted.

What I mostly didn't like about smoking pot, is how it made me feel stupid. Really did nothing but stared at the tv, not understanding it at all, and shoving massive amounts of food down my throat.

Everyone is different though. I don't have anything against pot, I just personally do not like it.

Just wicked hypochondria when I'm stoned.

Oh, and I get really bad short term memory lapses; again, only when stoned.

I don't see why not liking cannabis would make us..."haters."

Drugs effect people differently.


--------------------
"If we could sniff or swallow something that would, for five or six hours each day, abolish our solitude as individuals, atone us with our fellows in a glowing exaltation of affection and make life in all its aspects seem not only worth living, but divinely beautiful and significant, and if this heavenly, world-transfiguring drug were of such a kind that we could wake up next morning with a clear head and an undamaged constitution - then, it seems to me, all our problems (and not merely the one small problem of discovering a novel pleasure) would be wholly solved and earth would become paradise." - Aldous Huxley

for those of you that get bad anxiety when you smoke, just don't smoke as much as you normally do, and do it in comfortable situations.

Especially if you have your own house/apartment.

Just smoke in your bathroom and then chill on the couch, its hard for me to get paranoid in that situation.

That really is key.

I often find I prefer smoking just a bowl to getting completely stoned out of my mind.

Pot's great for cardio.  It naturally ups your heart rate so you won't have to run as much in the gym, you can go right to lifting.

I get all off the bad trip like effects after a few hits off any joint, be it good shit or bad. As soon as I smoke it I convince myself im going to die and get a weird feeling like my head is being squashed

Not a hater though I abused it, played with fire and got burnt

i would like to chime in myself, with my experience i have found the negatives to be.....  stained the inside of my teeth and cottonmouth has caused some tooth decay (i brush and floss twice a day atleast)  its expensive, every deal you have no idea what you will get, dealers wanting to meet in sketchy places, most dealers i come across are FUCKING STUPID WITH NOTHING TO SAY, it smells and gets me caught every few months by someone (not cops)  thats anout it, everything else is GREAT ABOUT IT

Cost - it's pricey

Addiction - the biggest one for me. If I'm smoking weed, I smoke it all the time, morning, noon, afternoon, and at night (and that's at a bare minimum). So if I'm spending a weekend with my family, I feel like a crackhead carrying my stash in an airtight container, and a small concealable pipe around in my pocket, and finding some way to sneak a toke every few hours.



This. I can't stop smoking it. If I have I'll smoke it. And once I run out I seem to get cranky as shit. I love smoking joints and rolling a joint is the first thing I'll do when I wake up.

Money
Addiction
Depression
Laziness

At least the dreams I get when I suddenly stop smoking from like 10 joints a day are totally worth the negative side effects.

Oh dude, I didn't have a dream I could remember from age 15 all the way up to 2006-07 when I stopped smoking weed.

It was very strange at first.

Yeah weed is a trap... I think all of the anti weed commercials on TV are actually propaganda because the government wants us to smoke weed and make it seem like they don't.

It's great, sure, it feels awesome, but it's a trap. Too damn expensive, mentally addicting (and that's to everyone I've ever known that smokes it), and just all around doesn't last long enough to be worth the effort. There's so many better substances out there it makes me wonder why I still smoke pot every single day.
