I'm not sure what you mean by this, but marihuana is either inhaled or ingested. Wether it enters your lungs or digestive system the affect on your mind is the same. Your breathing gets slower and deeper like you're relaxing, and your heart goes faster like you're exercising. That causes double the normal amount if oxygen to be pumped through your body at a fast pace. This causes both sides of your brain to receive a generous portion of oxygen at one time rather than one side at a time as is usual. This often causes a person to think in ways that they are normally unable to. This can mean creativity, logic, science and many other things.

Marijuana affects the mind by interacting with two major pathways in the brain: the endocannabinoid system and certain neurotransmitter systems (such as dopamine, serotonin, and GABA). In the endocannabinoid system, THC, the active compound in marijuana, binds to receptors to produce various effects. In neurotransmitter systems, marijuana can alter the release and reuptake of neurotransmitters, leading to changes in mood, cognition, and behavior.

The mind uses defense mechanisms such as repression, denial, and projection to protect itself from experiencing anxiety or distress caused by unconscious desires or impulses. These defense mechanisms help to keep unwanted thoughts or feelings out of conscious awareness.
