Long Term effects of Marijuana
  • Addiction to Marijuana.
  • Short and long term memory loss.
  • Rewiring of nerve cells containing dopamine.
  • Mild increase in addiction vulnerability.
  • Decreased ability to deal with stress.

These symptoms occur in fewer individuals:

  • Depending on the method of intake, smoke from the marijuana can cause lung problems including coughs and colds, emphysema, cancer.
  • Higher incidence of schizophrenia. It is currently unknown whether Marijuana may simply be a trigger for those already vulnerable to the disease, or a cause.
  • Psychosis.
  • Permanent impaired coordination.
  • Low sperm count (?needs citation)

It depends on the person, I have some friends from college who are heavy marijuana users and has definitely made them"slower" - At the same time, I graduated pre-med with a heavy user who is as sharp as a tack- It enhances your personal characteristics- he's now a well known doctor, if you are a stupid lazy bum you will be a stupider lazier bum over time- if you are intelligent and use it to relax and accommodate your needs you should be doing great!
