Marijuana

Short Term

  • Highest peak lasts 30 - 60min, after 2 - 4 hours the effects will fade.
  • A euphoric feeling comes up and slowly changes into a satisfying feeling of calmness and relaxation.
  • Real hallucinations, i.e. seeing and hearing things that don't exist, never or hardly ever occur after using cannabis.
  • The changing perception can cause feelings of anxiety, panic and confusion, and people who don't feel well before they use can experience deterioration and worsening of the negative mood.

Long Term

  • Smoking cannabis is no less harmful than smoking cigarettes.  The cannabis leaf contains the same properties as tobacco and a fresh cannabis smoke can contain as much tar as twenty cigarettes.  Tar is associated with cancers of the mouth, throat and lung in cigarette smokers.

    Some researchers suggest that smoking cannabis virtually doubles the risk of developing mental illnesses such as schizophrenia.
