How bad is weed? ?

Question

My friend says it's not actually bad for you and it's only illegal because it's a "gateway drug" (???) But everything I've heard makes it sound terrible..What is the worst case scenario of smoking??

Answer 1

death

Answer 2

Weed isn't as bad for you as everyone says. Yes if you're stupid it can be a gateway drug. Just be responsible when smoking it and do it in moderation. Worst case scenario? You have too much fun. But honestly, weed can kill you just like alcohol and ciggarettes can. If you boast to enemies or people not cool with drugs about when you're going to do it or you do it in a public place, there's a chance your gonna get ratted out and could possibly be arrested. The odds are in your favor though pal. And the punishment isn't too bad either.

Answer 3

I'm going to quote what all of my teachers and even my mother who happens to be a nurse has said over the years.

"Marijuana has no negative effects that have been recorded. The government paid health books and schools to say marijuana can kill you and will do harm to you so it will scare children and teens out of doing it."

Answer 4

Its pretty much pointless, and yes i've done it. didn't like it

all it does is kill brain cells (which you need)

so dont try, do it! ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

period!

Answer 5

well, comparatively speaking, its not bad. but i don't recommend it. it can put you in some pretty bad situations with people you shouldn't trust, and i've heard some pretty horrific stories from my friends. and a 'gateway drug' just means it leads into other, harder drugs. so its just easier not to start.  

Answer 6

BAD! u could die

Answer 7

hotboxing and then the cops pull up..perfect example

Answer 8

Well I have schizpohrenia psychosis because I used to smoke a lot of weed. It makes me really paranoid when I smoke it and also causes me to hear voices that aren't there when ever I smoke it that's why I quit. (I was smoking an ounze every two days of buds)

Answer 9

the only way u could die from smoking weed is if because of the induced stupidity u ran into on coming traffic or drove a car. the only way to overdose on weed is to smoke your weight, which is not possible. Worst case scenario, u become mentally addicted to it, u always wanna keep doing it and if you dont have any weed to smoke, you think your day is ruined. basically, doing it once in a while with friends (once every couple of weeks, every month, etc) is not too bad besides the fact that it isnt legal and that u are breathing hot smoke and ash into your lungs. if u were sitting in your basement, rolled a joint and got high, you would most likely be fine.

Answer 10

you look like a loser my husband did it all through high school and now he's only 22 and he has the worst memory it jacks up your brain and wastes you time you can spend all day sitting in your room getting high or you can find a girl hang with friends or something else oh! and you get really paranoid

Answer 11

it,s bad enough, it can lead to more harmful drugs.

Answer 12

weed was actually a medicine, but ppl abused it and thats why its illegal

its actually kinda good for u in a long run...

im not saying smoke it every day that'll kill ur brain cells and what not

but like maybe a few times a month will help u relax and have better social relations

it can even help you get through boring or unpleasant times

and it can also help u get some work done =/

but u know just dont get addicted or dont move on to hard drugs

Answer 13

the worst case scenario is you either get caught or cough alot

Answer 14

worst case scenario... you eat too many chips and watch too many movies. if you smoke it too much youll be less motivated until you quit. but it's only because when youre stoned you relize all the c**p you thought was so important really isnt in the big picture. in reality weed has never killed aa human being in history, weed opens youre mind, makes you more peaceful and understanding. while alcohol causes thousands of deaths every year by alcohol poisoning, and by actions taken byu drunks. alcohol is responsible for a huge percentage of crime. most violent crime is by drunk people!!! marijuana has been ilelgal for so long because the government doesnt want you to think for yourself. and weed will help you do that. weed is harmless. just dont do it too much. oh and the gatewqay thing is b/s, if coffee was illegal theyd call it a gateway drug too. any crrime that stems from marijuana is merely because of the fact that its illegal in the first place.

Answer 18

not as bad as alcohol. It's illegal for several reasons, none of which had to do with drugs.

Worst case scenario- being stupid, getting paranoid, getting fat from munchies, however, people that smoke are mean the next day from what I have seen in my many years. Bad on your lungs too.

But over all, still not as bad as alcohol.

Answer 19

It's less harmful than alcohol.

Answer 20

Developing schizophrenia would be a negative of it.

Of course that doesn't happen to everyone - but there is MUCH higher rate of schizophrenia in people who smoke weed than people who haven't. Same with many other mental disorders. It can and does cause mental problems.

Doing it a few times probably won't do much harm. But for some people - it just takes the one time to cause irreversible damage to state of mind.

Along with the risk of throat/toungue/lung cancer.

I used to do it a bit when i was like 13, and honestly - it's very overrated. People smoke it because they think it makes them look cool.

Oh and btw - i now suffer from anxiety, and possibly bipolar ll. I wonder if it's connected....

Answer 21

Umm you could laugh yourself to death?

Everyone makes it seem much much worse than it actually is.

Answer 22

Wees is not bad for you at all. Try it, it's easy.

Answer 23

GATEWAY drug.....yes, that's a good start.....to drug abuse and a police record and all sorts of fun stuff.....

Answer 24

god d**n retards, it helps more than hurts. go to norml.com to get your facts, instead of these anti-weed douches.

i've been smoking EVERY SINGLE DAY since i can remember, total of 6 years  (no, it doesn't alter your memory if your not an idiot)  and im perfectly healthy and it only helps my health......

Answer 25

know your self  worst case you don't stop smoking it  

Answer 26

smoking in general is bad for your health if you have not started then don't as most smokers find it hard to quit and wish they had not started in the first place , ok worse case .lung cancer, loss of white blood cells (it kills them ) poor memory and  an unnecessary criminal record (its illegal up to now ) poor judgement!

Answer 27

well you make a fool out of yourself

i remember the first time i smoked pot i was trying to be part of the cool guy group so i smoked a joint with some friends and let me tell you i started to freak out bad. my face felt big and fat,my eyes burned and i started to get tunnel vision.then i would try to talk but i would forget the last words i said.it was like i was looking at myself from the outside in.

i remember that day well cause my friends were laughing at me i still remember walking my bike home saying dad warned me about drugs please god make this feeling go away but time was ticking very slow and i could hear every tick....

Answer 28
