Mental effects of Cannabis:

can have multiple effects
on our mental health/being.
Stress, Depression & Anxiety
Some of the major mental
side effects of Cannabis are
stress, depression & anxiety.
It is a common feeling for
those who take it, that Cannabis
provides them a leak from stress.
This brings them to euphoria,
(the state of being high) which
can be potentially dangerous for
them. Instead of taking users out
of stress, it is more likely to bring
them on more than it relieves.
Medical/General effects of Cannabis:
Cannabis can have more
medical effects than mental.
Eventually, these deficits can
lead to more severe problems.
Medical problems
Cannabis, once eaten can
take quite a while to affect
the body based on the
individual. The time can range
from 30 minutes to 2 hours.
Some of the short-term side
effects include having slower
reflexes and extreme drowsiness.
It can lead to memory issues,
being high and sometimes having
a psychotic period where one could
hallucinate.
Based on Medical issues,
there can be day-to-day
issues for cannabis takers.
For example, it is illegal
to drive while under the
influence of Cannabis.

increasingly violent.
which can lead to socio-
emotional breakdowns.
Eventually overtime, Cannabis
can lead to further extensive
lung damage which can be a
symptom for lung cancer.
