Severity of symptoms is related to frequency of use and individual sensitivity.

Answer 2

No... It doesn't have any negative side affects that are proven (all are theory so far) and has many medical benefits. but i will say one thing, " It's not the high that gets you in trouble its the weed itself." The only reason i have ever gotten in trouble for weed is not because the high makes you do something stupid, its just the fact that its so looked down upon. In other words, I used to smoke a bowl before class and later end up getting caught because some one told on me, not because i was high and ended up doing something killing someone or crashing a car. Weed isn't bad don't believe what the health books say. I have an 3.7 GPA... I'm not retarded.

Answer 3

yes its only healthy if you smoke every day
