There is a general trend among all my friends who smoked too much weed for many years. They refuse to smoke weed anymore even though they use to love it, because they started getting really anxious. All of them are young and healthy.
For myself it was extremely addictive, and for such a useless and worthless high I did more damage to myself with this drug than all the other drugs I took combined... years of heavy binge drinking, irresponsible rolling, loads of lsd and mushrooms, messing around with cocaine and heroin, none of that could ever even come close to the damage I did to myself with this silly weed which was the only thing I ever got insanely addicted to. I have a panic attack disorder now because of all the weed I smoked over a decade, and let me tell you it is hell. I am recovering but the recovery process is dreadfully long, as in years, and every time I have one of those panic freakouts I seriously want to put a bullet in my head. I never had a panic attack in my life before I started getting them when I was stoned and let me tell you I am 100% convinced that the reason I am this way is entirely because I extremely overused that silly weed and I regret it immensely. I know tons of other people who developed anxiety issues from smoking weed. Most of them were ok with just quitting the weed, but I took it way too far, since I was way too attached to the stuff and I didn't want to let it go even when I started getting crazy side effects.
All in all I say to hell with this disgusting garbage, it is obviously doing more harm than good in this world. People like me are suffering years of agony because of a stupid weed, when I have had absolutely no problems at all with the other drugs I was experimenting with but there is quite obviously a very strong association between anxiety, panic attacks, and heavy, long term cannabis use. I'm 4 months clean, and I'm still having major debilitating issues because of all that fucking weed I smoked and let me tell you that hash oil is the devil, that's what did me in and it didn't take all that much of it. It is going to take years to recover, and I am obviously very against all forms of cannabis. I think it's a stupid fucking joke of a high that is extremely risky to mental health. How could you ever know if you are going to be one of the unlucky ones in advance. I could handle my shit relatively fine for years and then one day out of the blue these panic symptoms hit me like a ton of bricks and I was never able to smoke weed ever again. I went from smoking 30 bong rips a day to smoking zero in the blink of an eye because my body gave out from all the abuse and I just couldn't take it any more. Just the fact that those unlucky ones exist tells you this drug is no good, in fact it's a disgusting, fucking pile of nasty garbage and I hate stoners with a passion as they are fucking careless with their bodies thinking nothing bad will ever happen. While people are developing manic depression, panic disorders and schizophrenia down the road. The version of myself 5 months ago would have scoffed at this post, "just get baked and chill man". But weed smokers are dropping like flies these days. I am fully convinced that future studies will expose cannabis as the vile, incredibly dangerous devil that it is - especially in regards to ANXIETY and PANIC. A strong physical dependency can also arise, the main effect being appetite suppression. But new studies coming out are also proving that cannabis is toxic to neurons in the hippocampus. That explained a lot. It always had a blatant dumbing effect as well.
I really hope this is a troll post because if not this is one of the saddest posts I've ever read. Im going to start off by stating that I DO NOT think weed is the harmless drug that many people make it out to be; it does carry side effects such as anxiety and depression that can develop in people. However, these side effects come from extended heavy abuse of the drug over an extended period of time. You say you used to take ~30 bongs rips a day...you expect there to be no repercussions from that? Take 30 hits of any sort of substance every single day and you will indefinitely see side effects begin to arise. Moderation is the key to life.
Next, You say weed has affected you more and was more addicting than coke, alcohol, mdma, even heroin?? Are you kidding me? Many of those substances are both extremely physically addicting and incredibly psychologically addicting, with withdrawal symtoms that can lead people to death. If you really went through "years of abuse" of drugs like this I'm pretty sure you would find them to be MUCH more addicting & damaging to your body/mind than a little grass.
And then all of a sudden you decide to bash everyone who chooses to smoke herb, generalizing that we're all "fucking careless with our bodies thinking nothing bad will ever happen". First off that's extremely hypocritical, seeing as you yourself were once a stoner. Secondly, how can you generalize an entire class of people like that? I myself smoke grass religiously, that doesn't mean I don't care about my body. You can find me at the gym 5 times a week, eating healthy, currently attending law school. Does that sound like a "careless, apathetic" person to you?
Now please, fuck off and return to the shithole you crawled out of
