RE: What do you really know about cannabis? Nature’s Addictive Plant.

Hello sir/ma'am
There's no need to curse and be all rude, if you don't agree with my post you would have politely told me why you feel so as i believe we're all adults.

Believe it or not weed can be addictive.
The bottom line is that weed can trigger euphoric effect. When people smoke weed, the THC in the marijuana travels directly to the cannabinoid receptors in the nerve endings in the brain. These receptors regulate memory, coordination, higher cognitive function, and the pleasure receptors. Weed also affects the naturally occurring chemicals in the brain and in effect disrupts these various processes, thus producing a high. Over time, overstimulation of the brain can alter CBR receptors, which leads to physical dependence on weed and addiction. You do know that there are some people that can't start their day without smoking a blunt or else the rest of that day is going to be crappy. I have a friend that can't smoke less than 5 joints a day, it's like a tradition for him and he always makes sure he doesn't run out of it. I mean he totally can't do without it. He has his dealer on speed dial. Isn't that "addiction"
