Reasons Why Marijuana Harmful

For more than 3000 years, many people in Africa and Asia who use cannabis in various dosage forms, is consumed in the form of cigarettes, sometimes mixed with tobacco, some are mixed with meat jerky or mixed in drinks.

Realizing the danger of impact that can be caused by the use of marijuana, based on the Act - Act No. 22 of 1997 on Narcotics, the Government set the pot (along with opium (and its various derivatives), cocaine, heroin and some other types of narcotics), including the Narcotics Group I ( one) which means that should only be used for the purpose of development of science and in no way be used in any therapy because of very high potential to cause dependence.
Cannabis has a lot of terms among the users or junkies like cimeng, Rasta, rehab, gelek, culture club, Pepen, Hawaii, marijuana, dope, weed, hemp, hash (hasish), pot, joint, sinsemilla, grass, and hundreds of names Other streets that spread throughout the world for the naming of marijuana. Just like the term, marijuana is also widely spread in different parts of other countries, mainly in the country - a country of tropical and sub tropical climates such as in Indonesia, India, Nepal, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Colombia, Jamaica, southern Russia, Korea, and the United States (Iowa). Cannabis is in Latin called cannabis, has some form of tobacco leaves as green, there are fingered five, seven, or nine pieces of leaves in each leaf stem.

In the latest research on marijuana, found there are 3 (three) types of cannabis plants namely: Cannabis Sativa, Cannabis Indica, and Cannabis Ruderalis. The three types of cannabis plants were all contain THC (Tetra Hydro Cannabinol) are different - different levels of levels for each type. Type Indica Cannabis contains THC at most, followed by type of Cannabis sativa, and type Ruderalis Cannabis contains THC at least. Psychoactive substance THC itself is a hallucinatory effect and have the whole of the cannabis plant, both leaves, branches, or seeds. Because the THC content of this is, then every person who misuse psychoactive effects of cannabis will be exposed to very dangerous.
In such a dangerous element of THC in marijuana, so for people who abuse marijuana for the first time only, will soon experience intoxication (poisoning) that marijuana is physically are: heart palpitations (rapid heart rate be increased from the previous 50%), reddened eyeballs ( caused dilation of capillary blood vessels in the eyeball), dry mouth (because the content of THC disrupt the autonomic nervous system that control the salivary glands), increased appetite (because the content of THC stimulates the appetite center in the brain), and fell asleep (after waking from sleep, physical impact will be lost).
The psychic, abuse of marijuana also cause considerable harmful impacts such as the emergence of a sense of worry (ansienitas) for 10-30 minutes, the incidence of depression and fear of death, anxiety, being hyperactive (increased motor activity to excess), visual hallucinations (in the form flashes of light, color - bright colors, amorfiaq, shapes - geometric shapes, and faces - the faces of the figures. It may also be in the form of visual and auditory sensory perception without a stimulus, like seeing people pass by but no one passing by, heard a voice but no sound), changing perceptions of time and space (eg, one meter was perceived ten feet, ten minutes perceived one hour), are experiencing euphoric (feeling happy excessive), laughing - laughing for no reason (without stimulation that should make people laugh), a lot of talk (feel great conversation), feels light on the entire limb loss, easily influenced, suspect (but do not cause fear, and even tends to scoff and laugh at), feel more enjoy the music, experiencing excessive self-confidence (feeling great despite the appearance of his most in fact the opposite), experienced synesthesia (eg, see the yellow color every time I hear a certain tone), and drowsy and slept soundly without dreams after experiencing hallucinations of sight for about 2 (two) hours.
What about the abuse of cannabis in low and medium dose? The impact is also as dangerous, such as having hilaritas (make a scene), experiencing euphoria oquacous (euphoria laughing - laughing non-stop), change the perception of space and time, reducing the ability of coordination, consideration, and memory, have increased sensitivity to visual and auditory (but more toward hallucinations), have conjunctivitis (inflammation of the airways), and having bronchitis (inflammation of the lungs - pulmonary).
On the abuse of cannabis with high doses, the impact caused a marijuana abusers will experience the illusion (delusion), delusional (too much emphasis on the belief that is not real), depression (mental pressure), confusion, experiencing alienation (alienation), and hallucinations (sometimes, also accompanied by psychotic symptoms such as fear and aggression).
Dangers of cannabis abuse on a regular basis and prolonged fatal form of physical disorders and psychological disorders. Physical disorders such as: having pneumonia - lung, suffered respiratory irritation and swelling, suffered damage to the coronary blood flow and likely to cause an attack of chest pain, a higher cancer risk (because of its carcinogenic found in marijuana are much higher than in tobacco ), decreased immune system so susceptible to disease (because of the abuse of cannabis suppress the production of leukocytes), and decreasing growth hormone levels of both hormones thyroxine (thyroid hormone) and as well as sex hormones in men - men and women. In addition, the physical disruption caused also caused a reduction of sperm production in men - men and menstrual disorders and abortions in women.
Meanwhile, psychic disorders due to abuse of marijuana on a regular basis and prolonged cause: decreased ability to think, read, speak, count, and get along with, disruption of psychomotor function (the body's movements become slow), the tendency to avoid difficulty and underestimated the problem, not thinking about the future, and occurrence amotivasional syndrome (do not have a fighting spirit.)
Can we imagine, how terrible danger caused by the abuse of cannabis, even to stop someone who is already accustomed to consuming cannabis is also not easy. This is considering the impacts resulting from the cessation of cannabis abuse is no less dangerous, namely the emergence of withdrawal symptoms (â €?? Withdrawal syndromeâ €??) Like insomnia (difficulty sleeping), nausea, myalgia, anxiety, restlessness, irritability, fever , sweating, decreased appetite, photophobia (fear of light), depression (can result in the victim committed suicide desperate), confusion, yawning, diarrhea, weight loss (as a result of decreased appetite), and tremor (body always shaking). To maintain and restore the victims of abusers of cannabis, it takes care and rehabilitation therapy in an integrated manner that is now being organized by various NGOs and Government Agencies who œconcernâ € â €? to the problem of drug abuse and illicit trafficking.
Now, we've seen all of the hazards and the impact of cannabis abuse, as noted above. Our task is to prevent any further lest any family member, friend, friend, companion taulan, or people - those around us are exposed to snare drug abuse and illicit trafficking, particularly marijuana.
