Hey on the flip side. What do you think of people who smoke shisha or hookah as its commonly known? You think there’s any health condition from smoking shisha?

Shisha contains nicotine.

Search for the meaning of nicotine.

Any sites or research that they say smoking kills they are referring to the nicotine not actually the smoke...

Good as you quit... you will never have been able to handle it because you are not calculated. I consume you weed now and then. but I have rules which I stick to religiously. And that the key to be a motivated Stoner. RULES!!!!

So many things destroy a man's life, but weed, in particular, destroyed my elder brothers life. Made him completely useless as an adult, his mates are all gone beyond him, he's 50, but looks 70. And believe you me, he's still smoking weed and continually blaming every other person except himself, for whats befallen him.

Have actually stopped weed smoking tho,but tbh weed also has it own advantage..let stop talking as if it that bad..I know lot of great ideas and decisions i made when I was high and how it benefited me..the only issue is just the smoke that affects the lungs. That was one of the main reason i had to quit and plus I hate involving my self in anything the police will always disturb u about cause i hate police alot.I no dey even want get interactions with them talk more of begging them"oga abeg na abeg"because of weed...thanks to God

That America legalizes something does not automatically make it a "good thing". E.g. abortion is legal in America, innocent children murdered daily.
so abortion is not a good thing? How many homeless kids have you adopted?, you guys dont like being real

See those kids that you are preaching against abortions for, they will grow up motherless and harm innocent people in the future, the damage that they will eventually cause, is more than the damage abortion will cause, yes abortion is a good thing

Rapist, looters, thieves, serial killers are all birthed from dysfunctional homes

There are many harmful things that should be called out like sugar, cococola has killed more people than weed, yet its weed you people condemn

I love the fact that you didn’t take divinity and spirituality out of this. Every action is controlled by the spiritual. There is nothing that happens on the earth that doesn’t have a spiritual hand and implication. The same way the physical is governed by laws, the same way the spiritual is governed by laws. Even the most successful people know this. I wonder why an average man will always down play the spiritual. I thank God that you are free and I am happy for you.

I see a lot of ignorant or self delusional posts here

Let's establish one thing

Weed contains drugs and these substances have various effects in our system. Any drug that can cross ur CNS barrier and affect ur brain is a drug to be wary of,check them alkaloids like opioids,hallucinogens and the rest.
So bottom line is weed is harmful,whether u like it or not it is harmful to the body,the smoke damages the lungs and generates free radicals that are harmful to the system,the effects on the heart,on several parts of the brain and the rest.
Are there people who use weed but still manage to "escape" the harmful effects YES
But u should remember that there a lot of factors involved so there is no certainty that the harmful effects would be very pronounced on on the short term,the point is that its harmful.
Steven Hawkings had ALS and following the normal prognosis he was to die in a short while but he managed to outlive all expectations, also some people have HIV but are asymptomatic for many years,there are variations to the way our bodies respond to these things.

Having said that please don't allow anybody misinform u,weed is harmful to the body,go and do ur research,there is nothing u can do about it Weed can cause u so many health problems if not now then in the future.

Now concerning Western countries legalizing weed,it doesn't mean the government is encouraging people to use it,it only means that the government has agreed to let individuals make the choice and face the responsibility of whatever choices they make concerning their lives,I espouse that idea. So the fact that Western countries are legalizing it doesn't change the fact that its harmful to the body,alcohol is legal in a lot of countries yet its one of the leading causes of liver failure.

This doesn't mean I hate weed,I know it gives one euphoria and all of that and of course its a very good feeling,so good that even in the face of morbidity people still consume it that's how good it is,but the point is considering its side effect ; addiction,dependence,mental depreciation, cardiovascular problems,lung issues and respiratory challenges e.t.c. I feel by my own assessment that the risks greatly outweigh the benefits hence I do not think I would use weed and I do not encourage anyone to do so,but then if u use use weed its fine just understand that the activity u are engaging in could actually be adversary to ur health and if the effect is not immediate it could insidious so as much as possible use it responsibly if at all weed can be taken responsibly

Carry on oh. All of you that simply want to justify your acts, please continue. It is YOUR life. I shouldn't be wasting my time exchanging words with weed smokers who are probably high as they type.

So pls continue.

Learner! Why dont you channel same energy to gambling and masturbation they are worse than weed... You are just a smoker wannabe...real niggaz don't think about quitting... Carry your mumu tales park one side.. Next time don't start what you can't handle/finish...if you can lapse after six months what makes you think you won't lapse after 2 years when faced with a difficult situation... You think weed is your problem?? Check again weed is only there to help you if you don't abuse her... On a_more_serious_note_Isn't_the_world_crumbling??...why_stress_yourself_just smoke some weed

You are very correct, I stopped smoking for about 4months and my body started changing for the better, like you said it's so hard to stop like I felt depressed anytime I withdraw from weed. But part of how I am withdrawing is not buying with my money anymore

Are u of the opinion that

Weed has no bad effects on the system
or
Weed has some bad effects but its trivial
or
Weed indeed has significant negative effects but the benefits gotten from the use outweighs the risk

Which is ur stance ?

I dont smoke, its baked in brownies or cooked with beans, depends on how high I'm planning to get

Your arguement is centered around the inhalation of smoke, some of us dont like the 30% smoking gives you, we go for 80% direct consumption gives

Know what's funny, people always assume that something is bad without knowing what its about


Alcohol was illegal many years ago, weed will be rampantly legal and u will regret not enjoying it earlier when you had the chance to
