Weed can make it harder to learn and remember things. You could forget memories, tests, important dates, and who knows what else.
Athlete, musician, or gamer, THC can throw you off. It impacts important skills like reaction time, coordination, and balance.
THC can mess with how you plan and organize things. That means making decisions, even fun ones, can become more of a struggle.
Regular cannabis use before your mid-20s can affect the amygdala, the part of the brain responsible for processing emotions, anxiety, fear, and stress. This makes it harder to manage stress and anxiety in the long-term.
Using weed regularly may interfere with the brain’s ability to make dopamine, also known as the “feel-good hormone.” Heavy usage may decrease the user’s ability to feel pleasure, motivation, or satisfaction.
Individuals who use weed to cope with negative emotions are likely to develop a dependence. This is because frequent weed use can desensitize CB1 receptors in the brain, making it so more THC is needed over time to produce similar effects.
