‘Reefer Madness’ is an old monochrome movie that was released in 1936. The truth is it is only a propaganda vehicle that drives home the message cannabis results in insanity, aggressive behaviour and sexual deviancy. Due to its ridiculous and hysterical depiction the movie has since become a cult classic for all your wrong reasons. So much such that it may be the butt of sniggers and giggles around the world. I might add the consequences of inhaling cannabis are innocent of evoking the laughter on this occasion. The film’s embellished message comically attempts to scare its audience with as much subtlety as a machete-wielding psychopath! Rather than persuading viewers to avoid cannabis it provides point-scoring ammunition (even with 70+ years) for the pro-campaigners cause instead.
Frankly, the illicit ingredient inside your joint, bong or space-cake will not feature highly on the list of dangerous drugs. But whether you are worried about your mental or physical health, the financial cost, the drudgery of living your daily life stoned or because you desire to distance yourself from your own current lifestyle, your reasons to quit are as credible as any. Reportedly, around Whole Melt Purple Slushie smokers in the united kingdom seek out treatment every week. That statistic proves two considerations: a) cannabis truly has the potential to ruin lives, and b) you are not alone in your need to quit.
When cocaine and heroin addicts finally hit very cheap they have all the reasons in the world to quit. With cannabis the decline is slow and barely observable. Its squeeze upon our lives is seemingly very gentle. So gentle actually we get accustomed to feeling sluggish and stoned and forget what it’s prefer to wake up in the mornings bursting with energy and vigour. Instead, listlessness, reddened eyes and drained skin tone become normal. Even when it becomes apparent we have to at least consider stopping, the huge benefits always seem weighted in favour of continuing.
Such may be the subtlety of cannabis most people have a problem deciding if cannabis is their enemy or helpmate. The same drug it appears has the capacity to soothe stressful situations and cause stressful situations through anxiety and paranoia. Likewise, cannabis is apparently a relaxant yet it’s not uncommon to experience introspective self-doubt and lack confidence in social situations.
It is the subtlety of cannabis that also creates the confusion over whether we are simply in the habit of smoking too much or psychologically addicted to it. Regardless of the truth of the problem is, it’s all too an easy task to trudge through your teens, twenties and thirties permanently stoned; yet feel terminally bored and deprived of fun and relaxation without it.
