Ako lang ba ang ayaw gawing legal ang marijuana, at gusto ko gawing illegal din ang alak at kape dahil sa mga epekto neto sa pag tulog na nakaka apekto sa mentalidad ng tao
Marijuana should be legal for medicinal purposes, not for general public consumption. That’s it.
I disagree, this could be abused lol, I’ve known a person na niresetahan siya ng anti-depressant and it’s only good for 2 weeks, but extended to another 2 weeks kasi dinoktor ng mama niya yung reseta, its only 2 weeks extended lol pero pano kung may long term effect pala yun tas di na bumalik sa psychiatrist lol parang joke ang nangyari kahit pinapabalik para i reassess kung kailangan pa ng gamot o iibahin ang gamot o patitigilin na ang gamot
Regulation is a thing… oh wait, nasa Pinas pala tayo. Haha.
Redditors also demonize nicotine they should watch “You Don’t Know Nicotine”

marijuana is linked to increased risk of having bronchitis, and EVALI(all diseases I know so far that is linked to marijuana), anything that is foreign to your body will trigger an immune response that’s why smoking for example causes an increased in immune cells like alveolar macrophage but those new immune cells that caused by any smoke or vapor or as I said any foreign things is futile since it only do one thing clean your body out of it. and from the word bronchITIS, itis means inflamation and as I said before increase of immune cell like neutrophil will increase inflammation so to summarize it, smoke >> irritate airways(releases inflammatory cytokines) >> cytokines trigger an immune response >> increase in neutrophil >> inflammation(bronchitis) simultaneous to that is also an increased in mucus production to trap smoke as much as possible and what happens if there’s so much mucus your airways are narrower and you’ll have to cough up those to clear and widen your airways
alcohol, so far the only known use cases for that for me is for cleaning for example wounds, that’s why it also kills gut bacteria, it’s also linked to decreased lifespan and more psychological problems temporary and permanently there’s more things I forget that I learned from Huberman’s Huberman Lab Podcast
Coffee, let set aside the circadian rhythm for a moment and focus on sleep drive, caffeine sits on the same receptor of adenosine, adenosine is what increases your sleep drive throughout the day, it starts to produce the moment you wake up and clears up in your system by sleeping, also caffeine is a drug and it’s hard to clear it up even 8 hours passed only 50% of caffeine is flushed on most individual not the entire of it, also the increased caffeine is not beneficial for brain power either just searched up “caffeine spider web” if there’s too much caffeine you’ll lose the ability to concentrate and be jittery as fuck!
EDIT: also any type of inflammation means increased fluid in that area kung magka bronchitis ka malaki chance mo na magkatubig sa baga

breathing oxygen is vital unlike marijuana and byproducts like free radicals are irrelevant since it’s part of cell respiration, you can’t live without oxygen while you can live without marijuana, also marijuana also produce free radicals in fact all living beings produce free radicals even fish who lives in water, oxygen in water and in air differs but both produce free radicals so what’s the point of your arguments, sure let’s say there’s an increase of oxygen content in air in a limited area that produce free radicals much more it’s not as deadly as MX3 and other supplements portrays it to be, Macrophages eat those even without an immune response, if they don’t do that your entire body will be muddied with too much garbage
but I’m open to idea that there are pros, so what are they?, and are you sure they’re free from publication bias
EDIT: add more clarifications

pain? big no, meditation and even a placebo can lessen or erase the pain.
psychiatric? could be but only for adults 25 and beyond, for me kids, teens, adolescence and early adults should be illegal to consume even as a medicinal but if the patient wants it, it should be strictly monitored and only do so when other options are wearied out already, remember Seroxat by GSK has made it to public fooling both FDA and Psychiatrist and Psychologist it is publicly believed to be okay to prescribed to adolescence and only stopped when Spitzer slams them
edibles are not safe either THC traces have some negative connotations surrounding it too and it’s also the reason getting high is a thing
I agree with all but it cites DSM which is criticized for making homosexuality a mental disease before, and experimenting with grief exception.
well marijuana research is already happening, and it’s result is the reason why it’s still illegal.
I agree a bit since there’s some truth to it but I won’t encourage someone to try marijuana if they’re not in some other extreme drugs, I’ll only advise it to those who have addiction on much extreme drugs
EDIT: Seroxat(aka Paxil, Paroxetine) pala not Xeroxat

meditation is proven to increase pain tolerance, in placebo there’s this American Anesthetist named Henry Beecher, during WWII they ran out of opiate-based painkillers so before the placebo he thought of trying inducing heart failure on utterly wounded soldiers but before doing so he tried gaslighting the soldiers they are taking morphine but what he gives is just a saltwater drip, well the result is the same as taking morphine.
I don’t know about the protein interaction you’re talking about, but if you’re talking about hormones able to bind to any cell in your body and have its effects, then I already knew that, learnt it from Huberman, meditation increases serotonin level which is the body’s natural pain killer so it’s not unscientific.
I’m straight-edge so normally I’d agree with you, lol. But I’m ambivalent towards marijuana legalization. If the argument is because some people need it, then it’s a flawed one because medical marijuana is already legal for decades now. What they need to do is make it known, cheaper, and accessible.
I have a mild form of neuropathy which I assume would worsen in due time, and apparently CBD oil (which doesn’t count) could alleviate some of those symptoms. Would be nice to have that in your backpocket should worse come to worse.
