Lots of people think that marijuana is not as harmful as it may seem but reports state that¨ But scientific research shows that there are risks, especially for teens. Marijuana affects a person's judgment and can impair his or her ability to drive. For those who use it regularly, it can lead to poor academic performance, or even addiction.¨with that being said you have to be really careful when consuming marijuana because it can have a lot of different side effects.

Other ways Marijuana could be harmful to the mind and body is if you use to much of the THC it could slow your brain process down; the reports state that ¨Regular cannabis use, meanwhile, can impair memory, disrupt work or school, exacerbate mental health issues, and heighten the risk of psychosis.¨ with the information giving and from the picture you can tell that marijuana can mess up your brain developing process especially for women.

Studies may also state that ¨Also noteworthy is the lack of evidence pointing to marijuana use causing cancer. While chronic marijuana smoking was found to be linked to bronchitis, it was not found to cause cancers that are most commonly associated with chronic smoking of tobacco.¨ with this being said even though cannabis doesn't cause cancer you should still be cautious on what you put and your body and if it could be harmful or not!!!

Marijuana is not as harmful as it may seem to a lot of people; studies state that ¨Specifically, states that have approved cannabis use for managing PTSD symptoms are doing so based off "meager" evidence, and in some cases, are circumventing Food and Drug Administration regulatory processes in a way. With the information provided smoking cannabis can help you mentally a lot; like some other facts that weren't stated above is that smoking cannabis can help with a lot of mental health issues such as social anxiety, depression and so on and so on.

Good Medical Benefits!!

Marijuana can be used for plenty of things but one of the most important uses is medically wise. I say that because lots of people think that using marijuana is to only get you high but it actually helps mentally, emotionally, and physically; the reports states that ¨Ms. DIANE MONSON: They tried to protect me, my sheriffs. They tried to explain that this is my only medicine. I do not take any other medicine.¨¨Diane Monson, who suffers from a spinal degenerative disease and uses marijuana on advice of her doctor to alleviate pain.¨Raich suffers from an inoperable brain tumor. In a sworn affidavit, her doctor said that without marijuana, she would likely die, that all other drugs had failed to help her and that until she used marijuana, she was in a wheelchair, paralyzed on one side and rapidly losing weight.¨ With the information provided these women couldn't properly support themselves or ever live long without using marijuana it really helped them have a longer and healthier life.

Good Medical Benefits!!

I was doing more research and found that more reports states that ¨Ms. ANGEL RAICH: Because of the fact that my children were watching me suffer, that is the reason why I decided to look my own views in the face and decide that I had to do what was in the best interest of my children. And what was in the best interest of my children was for me to be here alive for them, to help them grow.¨ With that being said i'm pretty sure that if Ms. Angel use medical marijuana she would have died and wouldn't have been able to see her children grow up and be apart of their lives. As stated above Ms.Angel tried to use multiple medical choses and nun of them worked but when she went and tried medical marijuana it was the best decision she had ever made.

Lots of people say that when you are using marijuana a lot or so often you ´ ll get addicted but that's not entirely true. Reports state that ¨ By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at VerticalNews Health -- OHSU research suggests an avenue for developing treatments for chronic pain that harness the medicinal properties of cannabis while minimizing the threat of addiction.¨ Meaning that people can use marijuana to a certain extent for certain reasons and wouldn't get addicted to it.

Some people would say that smoking marijuana wouldn't be that bad or not have to big of an impact on you not know that that could just be the addiction talking. Studies show that ¨In the subsequent three years I spent with that boyfriend, we didn't pass a day without smoking ganja. Sex was better, movies were more colourful, backgammon was unbelievably fascinating and we never once had to worry about what to do to amuse ourselves of an evening.¨ with that being say you have to be really careful when using marijuana because you could use it so much that u dont even recognize its being an addiction and that a major problem.

i was doing more research and found that marijuana is a very easy to get addicted to even if you feel you may not be addicted when in reality you probably were. Reports state that ¨"What more could one want from a pounds 10 draw? I developed a strong tolerance to all kinds of marijuana and (the Oliver Reed of potheads) was proud of being able to smoke almost anyone under the table, which is where most occasional smokers soon found themselves after a couple of tokes of my blow.¨ As you can tell its seem ms. rebecca cant stop using marijuana it's like she can't live without if but funny thing is that she believes she's not addicted to it though she take her using it frequently as a norm when in reality it's really an addiction problem and she should either get help or slow down with using the product so much.

Most People think that smoking marijuana is more dangerous or on the same level as smoking tobacco but they would be sadly mistaken; reports state that ¨investigators determined that those who regularly smoked cigarettes possessed a 20-fold higher lung cancer risk than non-smokers. Those who only smoked marijuana had no elevated risk.¨ With the information provided it tell us that marijuana would not cause nor worsen cancer of any kind and actually would be safer to smoke rather than smoking anything else.

While doing more research i found that marijuana slow down the thinking process and have a long term effect with it; for instance reports state that ¨For every five marijuana-years of exposure, verbal memory decreased at a level corresponding to one of two participants remembering one word less from a list of 15 words, they found.¨ this is basically saying that over the years people would start to forget simple and easy thing and conversations the more they smoked over the years. The reports also stated that ¨Previous studies have focused on heavier marijuana use on cognitive performance, finding drops in IQ and poorer verbal learning, memory and attention in people who use marijuana daily for 10 or 20 years.¨ to sum everything smoking marijuana could either be good or bad depending on how u use it but in the long run it will cause memory issue so just be cautious before putting it in your body.
