I think a person can fry their brain just working themselves up sober
I personally feel that weed wouldnt fry my brain, but some on this site insist it was the sole cause of their psychosis.

Long-term weed usage can hurt short term memory. It will not effect any other aspect of your intelligence.
Assuming you are above the age of 25 (it's worse if you're not): The average person can remember 9/15 words in a given period of time. 5 years of smoking weed will lower this to ~8.5/15, and another 5 years will bring you down to 8/15, etc.

I’ve heard pot can exacerbate latent mental illness, probably due to its mild psychedlia. But most people do not trip on indoles as frequently as one might smoke pot.

I have heard the same type of things about weed and memory. I think it is more an issue if you are chronicly on chronic.... which is to say more than a recreational user. I think anything taken to excess can cause problems. Just my two cents.

I can't prove this but, people who are in this forum doing the very sci-ency stuff discussed here probably don't fall into that category. I am sure there are exceptions to every rule.

I’m a chronic user, and the only times I notice any kind of short term memory problems is when getting high after a long abstinence. For me, it seems as long as my tolerance is up to its usual, about a gram a day for 15+ years, I don’t experience long or short term memory problems. After a break, and I get blasted, yeah..... I will forget that I am holding the lighter, or already poured myself a glass of water, or what we were just talking about, etc etc
That said.... I’ve met some very dumb potheads in my life. So, i think it has something to do with individual biology.
Or, I will go with:

when I have daily thc, I begin forgetting why I entered rooms, foggy meanings let me function, but in the midst of functioning I am still unclear of what I am doing.
I am much clearer after a few days off, and I don't get this from lysergamides.
At least it is not perma-fried, and while thc fried still inspired and functional.

The worst that will happen if you constantly smoke pot is that you will gain a ridiculous tolerance and will just stop getting high. It's really disappointing actually because you spend a lot of money to maintain the mildest of buzzes. But you wont fry your brain.

You can fry your brain without any drugs, so for the person inclined to do this, sure, he can use weed that way.

I smoked weed multiple times a day for 10 years, usually mid grade/regular weed, rarely high grade, never gained tolerance to it in terms of dosage needing to be increased, in fact over time i became more sensitive to it and noticed it's Psychedelic-like properties coming out more, but i've also taken Ayahuasca a lot and still regularly consume Rue seed/Harmalas, so that may have something to do with it's tolerance never going up. I recently quit smoking though, been away for almost a month now (1 month Cannabais free here in a couple days). It won't fry your brain but it definitely caused me some issues while smoking it which led to the decision to quit, nothing major, but the anxiety and paranoia and general awkwardness was really messing with me and things started feeling uncomfortable, but even when i was still smoking, when i was sober i was fine though, but the minute i smoked i just felt really uncomfortable. Lemon EO though has been pretty good at giving me the terpene content i'd get from Cannabis without needing to consume Cannabis, so i'm sure that's helped me out some.

Mate, this is when you should start to smoke, not quit. But use cannabis as a potent psychedelic, and smoke it 1-8 times a month. Not for relaxation or fun, but for private investigations, and for deprogramming your thinking.
I find that with weed you can shatter your worldview in comfortable increments, and in this way move towards truth.

Yeah i realized that, though from my understanding even if i stick to abstention, if i do decide to smoke it again at some point, those effects will probably likely still be there, so if i use it again i will be using it in that way, or with Psychedelics in general.

on this one, y'alls opinions < science
weed can very slowly reduce short term memory over time. it can also, very rarely, exacerbate latent mental disorders
that's about it

But being fried is different. Thats when you smoke 3 blunts of strong shit in an hour. For me if I smoke a rip within 5 minutes of waking up, that fries me for the whole day even if thats the only time I smoke. Strong edibles also make me feel fried for hours. I have felt truely stupid at times. I feel like if you smoke more than 2 grams a day for a long time, that will slow the brain daily. When you are fuckin up at work, thats when you know. I still smoke ~0.5g/day (bong rips) and never do I feel burnt when not smoking.

frying implies permanent change. obviously while intoxicated (and shortly after) you will not be at 100% mental capacity
short term memory can be fucked for up to 30 days in seriously chronic smokers, but that's still almost no time in the grand scheme of things

Short term memory issues seem to be able to be counteracted using Lemon essential oil, or pure Alpha-Pinene, or perhaps pure Limonene, or other essential oils that contain those terpenes. Even when smoking, so long as i took those terpenes, didn't have any short term memory issues, but before i started taking the terpenes, i did have short term memory issues while on Cannabis. As far as short term memory loss in the long term even after abstention, from my understanding, it's primarily only an occurrence while on Cannabis, but not when not on Cannabis.

I never noticed any memory loss but after 14 years of it i was fried. Got to the point where i would smoke a dab every 4 minutes not perma fried but fried for 5 years. It made me really anti social and i noticed my only friends were stoners and the only thing we’d do when we’d hang out was fry our brains to rediculous paralyzing highs all day every day. I was smoking like 20 pipe rips an hour that shit totally fried me and i was asking because i have seen this shit hands down. Every stoner i knew was stupa fried you should really be careful what you are doing when you fry your brains out with cannibus but you guys act like every stoner i’ve encountered during my trips. Make excuses on how good it is for you while you are anti social af and have no real knowledge get a job and stop getting high on cannibus that shit takes years to unfry. Stoners make the most excuses for their habit it really is a sickness half of my face went numb and my entire energy body was fried this took 5 years of meditation to recover from 14 years of damage. I was a hardcore stoner but i notice it tends to bring people into funks thinking they cant do anything with their lives. They act like they are productive but just smoke every 5 minutes all day ive met 1000s of stoners and been to so many dispensaries they are all the same stupid... take some shrooms and get off the weed and do something productive with your life.

This is actually a good point. I should probably be asking friends and family if they think I have a good or bad short term memory. 😝
A reason I’ve wondered about before for why I may not notice memory issues, I didn’t smoke any weed or drink alcohol until after my 21st bday. A lot of the “burnouts” I know started really young.
Then again, I am not opposed to the idea that I have a bias, I am probably forgetful as shit and just don’t notice it because I am high all the time, lol

Maybe don't do dabs every 4 minutes and smoke 20 pipe rips an hour for 14 years? And everyone else are the ones with a problem?

Of course you can.
You'll get the people that will tell you it will heal the world etc etc but it does ruin some peoples lives.
It is not a totally harmless drug, and if you smoke too much of it one day you'll look back and realize you've done nothing for the last 20 years smoking it everyday all day.
Choose life.

That's a really good point, and that's where I'm at right now. The first hour after getting really high is not really pleasant at all for me, some anxiety/paranoia, and just all around awkwardness and uncomfortable feelings. That's actually the stuff I find beneficial, not latching on to any distorted thoughts or feelings almost feels like they're being clensed from my system, after building up after long periods lacking in self-exploration.
I used it daily from 14-20 or so, every night before bed and occassionally during the day. My attention span and memory were pretty bad before starting to use it, so can't tell how much it impacted me. When I went back to school I've done extremely well in undergrad and grad, so definitely not fried. My memory is pretty good, my focus is not though, but that's been non-existent for me since elementary school

I don't really believe we ever lose memories unless we truely burn holes in our brain with drugs. Marijuana from what i've seen just slows the activity down, so while you're high you're a little fried but after the effects wear off you're fine. where as cocaine will eat holes in your brain. I was diagnosed with Marijuana induced psychosis so to the medical community it does have some effects, however I smoked for 11 years so far with no ill effects, and am actually about to cut that out as well

Some of y'all sound like D.A.R.E. kids...
Again, just because you or someone you know is an antisocial loser, does not equate to “weed makes you a loser”
I don’t think weed has no negative effects, and surely some people who use weed, or eat shrooms, or aspirin, or caffeine, etc, will be affected more than others. Obviously.
But, then to connect weed to every negative personality trait you perceive in yourself and/or others and then, to extrapolate that concept to every marijuana user is about the same kind of logic as saying all gay people have aids.
Isn’t that a kind of evidence that there are plenty of people who are quite good at being stupid without weed? 😊
Maybe a few puffs off a joint would break the part of the brain that so easily accepts one-sided stereotypes and refuses to see nuance in anything.
My post sounds a lot more antagonistic than my intention is, the mild insults are meant as humor, just giving food for thought. I am aware that some people really do get fkd up because of weed. I just want to point out that some of us can handle our shit. 😎

Within the last 18 years I have witnessed two people go crazy /getting delusional and ending up in the psych ward for several months, from a few hits of a joint only. 
Could be genetic mental illness, idk. But it's a fact that smoking weed can be dangerous for some.

I have a friend who smoked weed his whole life, then one day, after one bowl, daily panic attacks, high blood pressure, stomach problems and profuse sweating. He has totally sworn off it, and it still took about 2 years to finally stop having random panic attacks and get his blood pressure straightened out. He won’t smoke weed again.cant blame him, if that happened to me, I prob would stop too.
Edit: I’ve seen one guy go weird after a half a joint, no idea what happened to him, I would see him occasionally, but he would act scared and avoid me after that. I was young... I didn’t care enough to actually follow up at that time. Admittedly he was a weird dude to begin with, and probably shouldn’t have been on any drugs, but before the weed thing he was friendly enough, afterwards, always kinda freaked out looking.

Oh! Like one of those foam rockets where you stomp on the pedal and the rocket shoots up. Except it's balls instead of a pedal.

I have tinnitus which is a phantom ringing sound from over exposure to loud sounds and allergic reaction to a RX. It is nerve damage. I found that lemon Bioflavonoid seemed to help control the ringing. I don't know if that is exactly the substance you are talking about but there is something in lemons which helps the nerves work better. I assume memory is just nerves working to hold data. And I notice that weed makes the ringing sound worse for me. That may be a subjective thing... I don't know. It does get better after the high. I think it is interesting you noticed that. Maybe someone will research it and explain our observations.

I think the fact you are thinking about it probably means your brain is in good shape. I know for a fact that shrooms help people gain perspective that they might otherwise miss. More places are using hallucinogens as a therapeutic aid. I have spent years without any substances and years with too many... moderation is my goal in life! lol

It is a well known scientific fact that smoke can cause your dick to take flight and never return... I think they call it "Early Bird Cannabis Syndrome" ... someone back me up here?

I took a bong rip in celebration for this thread. Is that controversial?

Nope I dont think it will fry your brain
I am a little bit weird and smoking helps me a lot , it makes me very very , extra chilled out
If it gives you anxiety , that's just life and it's normal , happens to me too
Alcohol on the other hand will fry your brain and it makes me completely looped out and or angry

If people know you smoke then it can be their excuse to overwork you. All the symptoms of overworking being poorly misidentified as weed use when you probably just didn’t even get to smoke enough

Ok, I’ve been watching my memory, short term is definitely fucky, lapses on what just happened for sure. Not much more than that of most of the unfried people I know. It does fade out after the major effects do and I am back on point as much as usual.
My visual, spacial and long term memory is still 1337 status the whole time tho. 👍

FYI One test used to measure memory is checking "digit span". A "normal" person has a span of around 7 digits. You have someone call out a string of single digit numbers. You could safely start at four and work up one digit at a time until you can't call the digits back. Like repeat - 6,9,2,4 a four digit sequence. Then 3,9,1,6,7... There are also ways they ask you to repeat the numbers to test other aspects of cognition like repeating it backward but the basic thing is just a call back. Don't freak out if can't do 7 ... Once you have your base digit span you can recheck over time to track if you really are having issues.
