Theres a lot of bs in this thread.
Cannabis leaves are about 1.5 times as carcinogenic as tobacco.
But cannabis smokers dont smoke leaves, they smoke the buds which (apparently) contain around a third of the tar of tobacco. Hash probably contains much less than this.
Also, cannabis tar is not radioactive.

Misuse is a once off occasion where you don't use the drug appropriately, or overuse it or something (eg. OD, get way too drunk)

Abuse is where it starts to affect other areas of your life and get in the way of things (eg. calling off work cus you have a hangover, stealing money to buy drugs, etc.)

Anything else is just using the drug

At least they are the clinical kind of meanings I learnt at uni.

i'd say ranting to a close friend would be much more beneficial and will have the same result, ESPECIALLY if that friend is willing to listen and maybe even give you advice... ranting makes you feel better because all those bottled up feelings... egh.

Haha, I gotta agree. Solve your own problems. Sure there are times you should talk to somebody to get advice & opinions...but that is what friends are for. If they can't help you, then they are not your friends.

go to one and find out. They base their advice on scientific studies and theories. That is the main difference between a shrink and your friend.

They are helpful if you are willing to be helped and open to new suggestions.

Originally posted by diffusion Hmm, isn't this ironic? You are obviously convinced that hashish and mariuana is harmless. However you do visit the shrink from time to time. Pot/hash sucks. In fact, I hate everyone who's selling it. I do also fucking hate the people who say it's harmless because IT'S NOT YOU FUCKING LAMERS.

its harmless, you fuckin lamer (haha jk, of course its harmless putting smoke into your lungs). why do you care so much what other people think on a message board? why dont you go cool off, i know you have had a rough time, as i read your other thread

did you say "Hey, puff, puff pass, my nigga."?

1 blunt = 7 cigarettes.
