Is cannabis a good decision?
Cannabis is a controversial topic around the world but people really knows about chronic effects of the cannabis use?
There are a lot of research about the good effects of cannabis which is true but there are a lot of bad effects too.
The one that i want to show you is the effect that cannabis has in your emotions and desires, to understand that we have to know about how brain reacts to cannabis.
All our body has cannabinoid receptors which are overactived when you use marihuana, specifically in some parts of the brain which causes a block in the inhibition of a neurotransmitter called Dopamine.
This neurotransmitter has some pathways but in this case, the drug affects the reward-motivated behavior.
The reward-motivated system is responsible of motivation, desire and also works with positive emotions wich involves pleasure.
So now that we know a little about the effects, i will tell you one of the worse effects that Cannabis has and it’s the lack of emotion or motivation about things you loved before.
I know you will all be asking why that occurs, well that is because of the long-term use of cannabis almost destroys the dopamine (the feel good chemical) and you don’t get emotion for anything at least you consume something stronger.
There are some many ways to get endorphines without drugs, like excercises, eat chocolate or doing things that makes you happy.
Make a decision that help you to be happy.
