Is marijuana bad for you?

Would your life be better without it?

Vices also control us. They cost us money which could be put to better use, and at times they stop us finding what we truly want.

There are many vices - Alcohol. Drugs. Sex. Sugar. Coffee. Porn. Smoking. Computer Games. You Name It.

Why are Indians so influenced by the Western culture, when the Indian tradition has so much to give?

This may or may not be the case. I won’t judge.

Let me give you my personal recent example:

Ask yourself - do you want to be controlled by a vice?

I’m worried I have a bat bite on my hand, I have two small marks about 1 cm apart. I haven’t been in contact with a bat but I’m worried about at night. My fingers have a slight tingling sensation and my arm feels cold but isn’t. Am I ok?

As a researcher and scientist I’ll sum up most pros and cons of marijuana as terribly drawn conclusions which prove very little, often biased, nothings.

Is it better to be STRESSED not smoking marijuana, or to smoke marijuana and live a stress free life?

My guess is probably not, so in that sense it’s bad. If it affects your work, libido, relationships, friendships, or any aspect of your life which could be better, then yes - you should probably consider marijuana bad in that sense.

Why do men like to suck another man’s dick?

But, if you feel you need it, you feel it’s harming your health, or other aspects of your life, just think about how much better your life would be without it.

I quit sugar three months ago. I never realised I’d been a slave to sugar for over 40 years. Most people never realise that, but it’s an incredible feeling to be free of it. Imagine how elated I feel when I see someone stuffing their face with sugar like a right junky?

In life we need vices.

What is your opinion on the band Nickelback? Why do they receive criticism from some people?

Do you think that person would be attracted to someone who’s a slave to marijuana?

That said, consider marijuana a vice. Something I know a great deal about, as I’ve had many.

You want to find the love of your life, right?

This is a real question: Why do a lot of men/boys hate (yes, hate) women that voice their criteria in choosing a partner? Even when the criteria is sane and responsible. Besides it being, sadly, an effective mating strategy, why does it exist?

Which of the above two scenarios are you?

Let’s jump to a conclusion:

I’m not an advocate for alcoholism. It’s a terrible vice which destroys lives. But my alcoholic 85 year old uncle, wine in hand every day at 11am when the “bar’s open” is doing pretty well. I attribute his health to not having a care in the world.

What is the worst thing your sibling has done?

I do anyway, and I’m sure you do too?

If marijuana gives you happiness, and you’re not a slave to it, then sit back, relax, and don’t worry about it. You’re a grown up, and you can make that choice.

Ok, let’s say you’re single.

What's a memory from your childhood that shaped who you are today?

For most of us, vices give us the simple pleasures which help us get through the days, and I’m old enough to know life is more about simple pleasures and less about accumulating huge amounts of wealth and dying young from a stress-induced heart attack.
