" I'm expanding my mind man "

"Acute effects while under the influence include euphoria, increased appetite, anxiety, short-term memory loss, and circulation effects which may increase risks of heart attacks. The evidence of long-term effects on memory is preliminary and hindered by confounding factors. Concerns have been raised about the potential for long-term cannabis consumption to increase risk for schizophrenia, bipolar disorders, and major depression, but the ultimate conclusions on these factors are disputed."

The 60's a time when hippies ran wild and drugs were really just coming out of the closet, during these times one of the many hippy ideals were drugs expand your mind and give you new forms of thought. The quoted paragraph above states the official effects that the cannabis also known as "weed" plants give, there is NO expansion of the mind!!!!!!!!!

The definition of "euphoria" is intense happiness at an utmost degree, when the THC begins to effect your brain giving you this happiness you think something is happening and you take it as knowledge as you are to "high" to think in a proper manner.

The fact is you do not get smarter but in a sense you get dumber as you lose your short term memory and increase your risks of diseases at an older age.
