I'll wait.
How about you show me an article that shows it doesn't affect your brain!!!
B) I smoke maybe once a week or once every two weeks. I DID go through a phase where I smoked much more often during by senior year of HS and freshman year of college. It's just that for MOST people, a PHASE. I grew out of it and I don't enjoy it nearly as much as I used to.
Then why is the correctional system filled with people who were under the infuence of mary jane at the time of there crimes. And where is the proof that it is only a phase for most? C)
Given how huge the MCAT is, I literally need to study for it every waking moment. With that, I won't be drinking either or spending near as much time with my friends as I usually do. So yes, I plan on not smoking weed either cause it's time wasted that I otherwise could be studying.
But if it isn't harmful, why stop? Maybe because it does have a negative affect on the brain. The chemical THC found in marijuana has been found to be left on the brain years after use.
And finally, I have never, ever, ever smoked when I worked (as an EMT) or when I study or in class. Never. When I do my work, be it classwork or regular work, I make sure I give it my all. As hopefully a doctor in the future, that will be no different.
Again the chemical THC is left on your brain!
Whatever the hell I do on my own time is what I want. Be it smoking, drinking or just whatever the hell I am. And with that, I don't give two ***** what you think.
