Is marijuana bad for you?

But, if you feel you need it, you feel it’s harming your health, or other aspects of your life, just think about how much better your life would be without it.

That said, consider marijuana a vice. Something I know a great deal about, as I’ve had many.

There are many vices - Alcohol. Drugs. Sex. Sugar. Coffee. Porn. Smoking. Computer Games. You Name It.

Why does Filipino culture dictate that parents should be treated as gods?

I quit sugar three months ago. I never realised I’d been a slave to sugar for over 40 years. Most people never realise that, but it’s an incredible feeling to be free of it. Imagine how elated I feel when I see someone stuffing their face with sugar like a right junky?

Do you think that person would be attracted to someone who’s a slave to marijuana?

Ok, let’s say you’re single.

Are today’s baseball pitchers faster than a few years ago, or is it that radar guns have improved and get the pitch speed as it is released rather than as it reaches the plate?

Vices also control us. They cost us money which could be put to better use, and at times they stop us finding what we truly want.

Which of the above two scenarios are you?

As a researcher and scientist I’ll sum up most pros and cons of marijuana as terribly drawn conclusions which prove very little, often biased, nothings.

Ask yourself - do you want to be controlled by a vice?

In life we need vices.

I do anyway, and I’m sure you do too?

Why is pure dopamine not a recreational drug? And if it was wouldn’t it be the most addictive and fairly side effect free?

Would your life be better without it?

Is it better to be STRESSED not smoking marijuana, or to smoke marijuana and live a stress free life?

I’m not an advocate for alcoholism. It’s a terrible vice which destroys lives. But my alcoholic 85 year old uncle, wine in hand every day at 11am when the “bar’s open” is doing pretty well. I attribute his health to not having a care in the world.

How do you like to be pegged?

You want to find the love of your life, right?

My guess is probably not, so in that sense it’s bad. If it affects your work, libido, relationships, friendships, or any aspect of your life which could be better, then yes - you should probably consider marijuana bad in that sense.

Let’s jump to a conclusion:

Let me give you my personal recent example:

This may or may not be the case. I won’t judge.

For most of us, vices give us the simple pleasures which help us get through the days, and I’m old enough to know life is more about simple pleasures and less about accumulating huge amounts of wealth and dying young from a stress-induced heart attack.

If marijuana gives you happiness, and you’re not a slave to it, then sit back, relax, and don’t worry about it. You’re a grown up, and you can make that choice.
