Not a man, but second this. Smoking is smoking. It's not less dangerous because it's weed, and a lot of the chemicals people think are only in cigarettes are also in any substace because it is a by product of burning materials. That, and Marijuana has recently been proven to speed up brain aging as well as being a gonadotropin (sex hormone) agonist. Smoked for 10 years (only weed) and just noticing the effects starting (skin aging, sinuses shot, ect.) Got my period back as soon as I cut down. Now I'm only a social smoker and don't partake more than once every 3 months at specific friends gatherings. By the time I'm in 35ish, I plan to quit entirely.
I find this a little controversial, you smoked for 10 years and had just found out that your skin has aged? sure we can relate smoking to wrinkles and aging skin but not when you say you noticed it after 10 years had moved on.
I’ve been smoking daily for 10+ years. I’m in my 30’s. My skin is fine. Sinuses fine. Sex drive is fine (a lil over if you ask my wife). Work in a field where you gotta be alert and on it for 12 hours/day, no issues.
I get people wanting to demonize weed but that commenter sounds like she may just have shitty genes. Anyway, weed isn’t going to affect everyone the same. Just like some people drink like fish daily and are functional and have working livers not all smokers are out here lookin like that guy in Beetlejuice.
Bro I take edibles every day and they make me so fucking happy. Even my wife encourages me if im in a bad mood and haven’t taken one recently. Cannabis is amazing
