Adequate age for using cannabis
What would you tell someone 15-22 who came to see you and said they were thinking about using cannabis? “Everyone says it’s great fun and safer than drinking. Enlightened governments are legalizing it around the world. Some of my friends do it and they are still getting good grades.” What would you tell this fictional, curious, would be cannabis consumer? My understanding of your opinion of psychedelics is to take them infrequently and integrate the experience into your life before dropping again. Do you think the same applies to mota? For over fifty years we...
Read MoreCannabis risks
I’m currently very stoned and was wondering the truth about weed? How bad is it in reality? If we were talking about around 2-4 grams a day for a long time? And are the health differences big when you compare a bong versus a joint? Most relevant consequences of heavy cannabis use are related to short time memory. Frequent cannabis users learn with more difficulty (and forget easily) new concepts. I´m talking about the memory we use to learn new things (studying) or remember a phone number. This effect depends on dosage (more frequent and intense in very heavy...

I have this crazy weird phenomenon that I really can’t figure out. So the back story is I have had petalla femoral pain syndrome for a long time now. and then one day my petalla dislocated while I was doing nothing, but sitting in a chair stoned. Ever since then every time I smoke pot it makes my knees hurt and in some cases dislocates my patella. I know its the pot because its the only time that happens to me. Ive quit now for a long time and my knee is a lot better, but I was wondering if you had any explanation for this? Cannabis can amplify corporal sensations....

i have some questions about some combinations: 1. is it good to use modafinil when using other stimulants (from MDMA to amphetamines)? i use it with depressants (GBL, alcohol) and it works perfectly, but i am not sure if using them with other stimulants does not put too much stress on the brain (i use a lot of antioxidants before, during and after every session with stimultants) 2. i heard that some people use sildenafil/tadalfil to reduce vasoconstriction that some stimulants induce – do you think it is a good idea? also, since alcohol also is a vasodilator would it be good to...
