sooo i was looking at all the drug info links right
and most of them all mentioned the short term effects of pot
does that mean that if u use pot there wont be long term effects?
because i no ppl who do occasional pot right and they are about 20 years old and it doesnt seem like they have any long term effects
yeah, like while they are on it, u can obviously see that they have problems like learning, and problem soving, but i think after a while it goes away right?
idk
im just curious because all the links mentioned the short terms effects

From what I understand, occasional, casual use has no long-term effects. If someone smokes one or two joints a month, I do not think there will be much in terms of long-term effects. That said, any chemicals that enter our body repeatedly are potentially harmful. I am just not aware of research on this one. People who get stoned multiple times per week do find some serious effects--severe memory and personality impairment and potential to be unable to hold a job, etc. I saw many of these kinds of people when I was younger--fallout from the drug years of the 60s and 70s.
