Pot is dangerous for young brains: study

p2pnet news view | Off Topic:- Smoking dope can turn you into a, well, dope.

So says Nils Stenström of Sweden’s National Institute of Public Health (Statens folkhälsoinstitut), as quoted by The Local.

“New research indicates that even very modest use can cause a lot of damage,” it has him saying.

Marijuana use among Sweden’s young people “has been declining, but the downward trend in use may be coming to an end,” says the story.

“An increased use of cannabis has been reported among both students in grade nine as well as by students in their second year of high school,” Stenström says, going on:

“Cannabis can bring about the onset of latent psychiatric illnesses and the drug can cause serious psychiatric illnesses on its own,” and the view of cannabis as a “light” drug is “misleading”.

Several new studies also show that teenagers who only occasionally use marijuana can run into problems, he states.

Young people’s brain are “under development” and “especially vulnerable,” Stenström says in The Local, adding:

“It shows that cannabis can cause damage which can, among other things, reduce memory capacity and the ability to learn.”

    Ya stay away from all these nasty stuff even if it seems armless at first.

    No smoking no driking and take prescription only when you really have too.

    And do’t go to surgery for cilly thing such as “correcting” your nose!

    This does not make sense!

    How is this related to p2pnet?

  3. RadialSkid Says:

    Yeah, most drugs are dangerous to children. Why is that an excuse to make them illegal for adults?

  4. Orbit Says:

    I’m sure that this is more government propaganda but if it is true it’s a prime example to legalize it. Kids can buy pot easier then they can alcohol and tobacco especially when you have dealers right on the school ground.

    lol.
    they had to actually research this…
    the truth is, anything in moderation is fine, its those who smoke pot all day that are the problem.

  6. lando calrissian Says:

    I know people who are in medical school training to be family physicians who smoked pot since they were 15 years old. I know many pot smokers attending university for business and law.

    many questions:

    1) how was this data obtained

    2) what specific data leads the author to his/her conclusions

    3) has this data been replicated by any other research elsewhere

    4) who funded the research and what was its purpose.

    So can tobacco!

  8. Jay Says:

    Most of the pot smokers I know are not the brightest people in the world. And they know that smoking pot has decreased their lerning ability. THats why some of them wont smoke it when they are going to school or have to concentrate on something like their job or driving. But when they are at home they don’t care.

  9. Devil's Advocate Says:

    Hey! Don’t be too surprised.
    You’re living in a society that says even sex is a harmful addiction.

    They need to protect us from ourselves on so many fronts, we can’t be allowed to exist without constant, detailed monitoring.
    :(

  10. EE Says:

    I don’t use the stuff, but until someone creates a rigorous, unbiased, double-blind study of the subject I won’t believe a bit of it.

    Remember, ’scientific’ research also lead to blatant propaganda like this

    Also, due to the legal status of marijuana, I doubt there will be many credible studies published in the near future.

    That being said, of course it’s bad for kids, but when has that stopped them?

  11. Reader's Write Says:

    “Why is that an excuse to make them illegal for adults”

    The use of drugs should not be made illegal or at least people should not go to jail for it because of the addictive property of some of these drugs. Once hook up it is like a disease.

    However selling hard stuff such as met, Heroine and cocaine should be.

    As far as pot is concern it should be strongly discouraged just as should be tobacco and alcohol.

    Stop filling our jail with drug offenders! It cost us a fortune and we have no place to put the dangerous people! Dam It!

  12. Reader's Write Says:

    “I know people who are in medical school training to be family physicians who smoked pot since they were 15 years old. I know many pot smokers attending university for business and law.”

    May be but it does not mean that pot is good for your Health. Some MD smoke tobacco too and this can definitively induce cancer because of the nitrosamines contained in the tobacco leaves.

    Whether it is tobacco alcohol and drug abuse is concerned the stuff is fucking class A shit and is a sure perscription for a early grave.

    The only bad thing about pot is when some people smoke pot they will tend to formulate perverted things in their minds and will act them out.

    In some people pot will definitely bring on latent tendencies of homosexual and/or bisexual or maybe even pedophiliac behavior while the under the influence of marijuana.

    There is nothing good about it.

    I’d love to get into a study to disprove all this B.S.

    For the last 20 years i’ve been a self employed business owner,i love it because i can smoke weed all day long and work too!.I started smoking when i was introduced to weed on my 21st birthday and haven’t looked back.I don’t drink alcohol as it tended to make me aggressive when i was younger but weed has the opposite affect.I work 12+ hours aday and as the farmer guy said in “HAROLD AND KUMAR 2″,”have you ever tried farming straight?’it’s boring as SHIT!.”.The same goes for sales!.

    I make a very good living and with the help of clear eyes and deoderant nobody has ever had a clue that i was stoned as a cunt!.My long term memory is great,if my short term isn’t it’s because as i’ve got older i learned to filter out the superfluous shite i hear everyday.I drive 100,000kms a year and have never had an accident,infact i drive slower and my reaction times are probably faster than a straight persons!

    Mary Jane has hundreds of benefits that would do away with many many toxic and harmful pharma drugs but they don’t want us to know that.I am very rarely sick,infact i haven’t had a sick day in 7 years.

    I’ve been smoking weed for 15+ years off and on, since my early 20s. My profession is very high-stress and some nights I just can’t relax and get to sleep unless I pull off a quick bong hit around bed-time.

    The other comments here speaking of a “life of perversion” are borne of ignorance and seem to be from people who don’t really have any original thoughts of their own and instead meme whatever the folks on Fox news or the church pulpit proclaim.

    Just because someone is a low-life and smokes weed doesn’t prove that weed is what causes this. Correlation does not equal causation. I could point out extremely successful people that smoke weed too. It doesn’t prove anything. I’m probably one of the top 20 people in my field in the world, founded two corporations, one of them every reader here has heard of. Does the fact that *I* smoke weed mean that weed makes people successful? Of course not.

    10 THINGS EVERY PARENT, TEENAGER & TEACHER
    SHOULD KNOW ABOUT MARIJUANA

    1. What is Marijuana?

    “Marijuana” refers to dried flowers and leaves of some strains of the
    cannabis hemp plant (1), which contain various quantities of the
    non-narcotic chemical THC in various quantities. When smoked or
    eaten, it produces the feeling of being “high,” which lasts a few hours.
    Different strains of this herb produce their own sensual effects, ranging
    from sedative to stimulant.

    2. Who Uses Marijuana?

    There is no simple profile of a typical marijuana user. It’s been used
    for thousands of years for medical, social and religious reasons as well
    as for relaxation (2). Several of our Presidents farmed hemp (3), and
    some are believed to have smoked it. One out of every five Americans
    in all walks of life say they have tried it, and it is still very popular.

    3. How Long Have People Been Using Marijuana?

    Since Biblical times (4). This practice was widely accepted in America, (5)
    as well, until the orchestrated campaign of the 1930s led to disinformation, (6)
    public hysteria, and the first American laws against using it. (7)

    4. Is Marijuana Addictive?

    No, it is not. (8) Most users are moderate consumers who only smoke
    it socially or occasionally to relax. We now know that 10% of our
    population have “addictive personalities,” and they are no more nor less
    likely to abuse cannabis than anything else. On a relative scale, marijuana
    is less habit-forming than either sugar or chocolate. Sociologists report a
    general pattern of marijuana usage that peaks in the early adult years,
    followed by a period of levelling off, and finally a gradual reduction in use. (9)

    5. Has Anyone Ever Died From Smoking Marijuana?

    No; not even once. (10) Judge Francis Young studied all the evidence in
    1988, and ruled that “marijuana is far safer than many foods we commonly
    consume.” The federal agency NIDA says that autopsies show 75 people per
    year are high on marijuana when they die, but this does not mean marijuana
    is a factor in any of their deaths. This chart shows the number of deaths from
    selected substances in a typical year:

    Tobacco …………………………………………………………………….. 340,000-395,000
    Alcohol (excluding crime/accidents) ………………………………………….. 125,000 +
    Drug Overdose (prescription) …………………………………………….. 14,000-27,000
    Drug Overdose (illegal) ………………………………………………………… 3,800-5,200
    Marijuana ………………………………………………………………………………………….. 0

    *Source: U.S. government Bureau of Mortality Statistics, 1987.

    6. Does It Lead to Hard Drugs?

    No. (11) Although people who abuse drugs often smoke marijuana also, the National
    Academy of Science reports that “Legal drugs for adults, such as alcohol and tobacco,
    … precede the use of all illicit drugs.” Tobacco is known as “the gateway drug.”

    7. Does It Cause Violence?

    No, just the opposite. (12) The only crime most marijuana users commit is using
    marijuana. The U.S. Shafer Commission (13) report was the most comprehensive
    study ever undertaken on the subject. It found that marijuana smokers “tend to be
    under-represented” in violence and in crime, “especially when compared to users of
    alcohol, amphetamines and barbiturates.” The simple fact is that marijuana does not
    change your basic personality. The federal government reports that over 70 million
    Americans have smoked it … probably including some of the nicest people you know.

    8. How Does Marijuana Affect Your Health?

    A Harvard University medical team in 1987 found that “dangerous physical reactions
    to marijuana are almost unknown.” All smoke is unhealthy, but marijuana is safer
    than tobacco, and people tend to smoke less of it. That risk can be eliminated by
    eating the plant instead of smoking it (14) or it can be reduced by using water pipes to
    smoke smaller amounts of more potent marijuana. Moreover, cannabis is a proven
    medicinal herb with hundreds of modern therapeutic uses in treating ailments from
    stress to arthritis to glaucoma to asthma to cancer therapy, to AIDS, and more. (15)

    9. What About All Those Scary Stories and Reports?

    Most sensational claims of health risks cite no studies or sources at all. Others rely
    on a handful of inconclusive or flawed reports. (16) After 20 years study, the
    California Attorney General’s panel (17) concluded in 1989 that “an objective
    consideration shows that marijuana is responsible for less damage to the
    individual and society than alcohol and cigarettes.”

    10. What Should We Do?

    American taxpayers have funded many studies on this very point, and every
    independent government panel on marijuana has opposed the jailing of marijuana
    smokers. (18) Most have urged lawmakers to re-legalize and tax use of this herb
    by responsible adults, with age limits and regulations like those on alcohol and
    tobacco. Tell your elected leaders to free up our police and resources to combat
    violent crime and to honor our national pledge and comniittment to “liberty and
    justice for all” by ending marijuana prohibition.

    FOOTNOTES TO THE TEXT:

    1. Researchers count about 50,000 non-smoking commercial uses for
    cannabis hemp; in paper, textiles, fuels, food, medicine, sealants,
    etc. But even the pharmacologically inert strains and uses of hemp
    are now outlawed. Sources: Encyclopaedia Brittanica, US Dept. of
    Agriculture; Herer, Jack, The Emperor Wears No Clothes.

    2. In the Bible, God told man to use “all the seed bearing herbs” and
    did not exclude the hemp / marijuana plant. (Genesis 1:12). Coptic
    Christians, Rastafarians, Shintos, Hindus, Buddhists, Essenes,
    Sufis, Zoroastrians, Bantus and many other sects have traditions that
    consider the plant to have religious value.

    3. America was founded by hemp farmers. 1975 President of the American
    Historical Reference Society and consultant for the Smithsonian Institute,
    Dr. Burke, counts the following seven U.S. presidents as cannabis
    smokers: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, James
    Monroe, Andrew Jackson, Zachary Taylor and Franklin Pierce, as well as
    Ben Franklin. ‘Father of Our Country” George Washington once recorded
    his preference for female plants and mentioned a “curious” preparation
    (5-26-1974 letter), possibly hashish, made from the resins of hemp
    flowers. After Abe Lincoln’s assassination, his wife was prescribed
    hashish for her nerves. John F. Kennedy was known to smoke marijuana
    for his back pain and to favor legalization. (Washington farm journals,
    Jefferson diaries, national archives, etc.)

    4. Archeologists report that cannabis was probably the first plant cultivated
    by humans — about 8,000 B.C. (Columbia University, History of the
    World.) It was used for linen, paper and garments. It was being smoked in
    China and India by 2700 B.C. (US Dept. of Agriculture Yearbook, 1913.)

    5. Turkish smoking parlors, a tradition in the Middle and Far East, were
    popular in Europe and America as recently as the turn of the Century.

    6. Forty years earlier, the exhaustive British “Raj” Indian Hemp Commis-
    sion (1896) study of ‘gunjah’ smokers found no cause to restrict its use.

    7. Notorious yellow journalist William Randolph Hearst fabricated and
    published horror stories about marijuana. His lies were eventually
    exposed, but not until long after marijuana prohibition was enacted in
    1938. (Sloman, Larry, Reefer Madness.) The law against ‘marijuana’ was
    passed a year after the invention of.a machine to process hemp that could
    compete commercially against businesses owned by Hearst, DuPont and
    other powerful families. (Herer, Jack, The Emperor Wears No Clotbes.)

    1948 that marijuana causes pacifism, but the “Siler Commission” study
    conducted by the U.S. in Panama (1931) had already reported “no impair-
    ment’ in personnel who smoked marijuana during off-duty hours.

    15. Traditional uses source: Dr. Tod Mikuriya, Marijuana: Medical
    Papers. Marijuana could replace at least 10-20% of prescription drugs

    It is stereotypical about a old drug addicted troll who could not even get laid unless he resorted to prostitutes or pedophilia or homosexuality with underage boys.

    Being young is compared to arrogance and stupidity and most drug addicts would not change their behavior even if it meant a lengthy prison sentence for committing a henious crime under the influence of drugs for something you may or may not got framed for or DEATH knocking on their door and staring DEATH (GRIM REAPER) in the face.

    You know if p2pnet.net is a reputable computer and tech news website IT SURELY WOULD NOT PROMOTE ILLEGAL DRUG USE.

    Pot possession is still a misdemeanor in most states in America and technically if arrested it could land you in jail and a hefty fine.
    Places like Texas Alabama and most of the south comes to mind. The State of Kansas is not too cool either.
    Kind of iffy in New York state new jersey pennslvania and virginia and Florida.

    The bottom line is that some of you will be telling the arresting officer what an idiot he is when he pulls over your car smells the pot in it
    pulls a gun on you, he orders you out of your car, you get handcuffed, the arresting officer confiscates your stash and rips your car apart in the process and it’s throughly trashed AND QUESS WHERE YOU GOING ?

    However YOU look to be more in the minority and most out of touch with reality.

    Some municipalities where I live have stopped even writing fines if you are carrying less than a 1/2 oz. They’ve switched their focus completely from users to dealers.

    Personally, I hope it never gets legalized. Right now $120 dollars worth of cigarettes lasts about 2 weeks (only 2 years ago it was $60), but $120 worth of pot lasts me 2 months. In nearly 30 yrs I’ve never even had a ticket for pot, but paid through the ass for cigarettes. I’ll take the street prices over regulation any day:)

    So where are YOU from ?

    You can check out the NORML website in the United States and simple pot possession ranges from a simple ticket to Jail time and hefty fines.

    Don’t take my word for it go check it out.

    It varies from one state to the next.

    United States is not Canada

    I used to heavily smoke weed and drunk like a fucking fish and i dom’t even want to remember all of the other drugs i did.

    I don’t remember being sober for almost fucking 25 years.

    But I quess people don’t want to hear how drug abuse has ruined more lives broke more marriages and broken up more families .
    I just can’t see a married woman living with a drug addict or alcoholic.
    Same thing goes for a married man living with woman who is a drug addict or alcoholic.

    I quess most of the respondents are a bunch of men in denial about their drug addictions.
    Any married women out there would like to make a comment about their worthless drug addicted husbands?

    most women are smart.
    Too much spousal abuse out there by drug addicted husbands.
    Would any self respecting woman have a drug addicted spouse around her kids ?
    Buying pot costs money and i have met guys who would rather buy beer and weed rather than buying their kids diapers and milk.

    Their drug addict husbands will still be smarting when the wife gets a divorce The husband has to pay child support and add insult to injury the when ex wife will get a restraining order againest her husband and won’t be able to see his own kids.

    You’ll end up being an old troll in his fifties or sixties AND ALL ALONE.

    Their drug addict husbands will still be smarting when the wife gets a divorce and the husband has to pay child support and the fool of a ex husband has a big hole in his ass where his wallet used to be and when he don’t pay the child support to pay for his drug habits he gets thrown in jail.

    .It adds insult to injury when the ex wife will get a restraining order againest her husband and won’t be able to see his own kids because he is a drug addict and a bad influence and the wife don’t want her ex dumbass drug addict husband around her kids.

    Just like George Throughgood used to say ” i done let the deal go down and now i am in the dog house and move it on rover a hotdog is moving in “.

    “You’ll end up being an old troll in your fifties or sixties AND ALL ALONE.” Or an idiot who keeps re-posting the same thing three times with minor variations.

    Sure, ALL the pot smokers will wind up alone because everybody KNOWS woman don’t smoke pot. Of course according the moral majority crowd posting here everyone who smokes pot is a burn out, there are no doctors, lawyers, or scientists that smoke it. Personally I want the government in my life as little as possible, so do me a favor and FUCK OFF!!!!
