Effects of Marijuana Addiction

Article Category: Self Help

Author Name: everythingaboutweed

Marijuana addiction is one of the most common cases of substance abuse in the country. The following are some of the typical effects of prolonged cannabis use. Along with the main pointers are the mechanisms on how they occur. Also included are other effects that may arise from the main cause of the systemic effect.

Neurological

Prolonged use of cannabis sativa can caused permanent damage to the brain. Continuous use of marijuana can cause impairments in memory. Moreover, the main executive functions of the brain are affected. Some of these executive functions include (1) information processing; (2) judgment; (3) language use; (4) decision-making and planning; (5) troubleshooting; (6) attention span; (7) reasoning; (8) task switching; (9) mental flexibility; (10) action monitoring; (11) task initiation; and (12) inhibition. Multiple studies also showed that prolonged exposure to marijuana can cause permanent physical brain damage. As a result, this can affect the sensory capabilities of your brain. Therefore, you may have heightened or blunted response to light touch, pain, proprioception, kinesthesia, and other superficial and deep sensations. These permanent brain lesions can also lead to difficulty in learning new skills.

Behavioral

Because the physical and chemical composition of the brain is affected, it is inevitable to see abrupt changes in a person's behavior after prolonged cannabis use. This is because the brain directly governs a person's behavior. One of the direct results of marijuana addiction that you can observe is the apparent change in personality. In line with this, you may occasionally notice mood swings. Most of the studies that followed a number of participants concluded that prolonged use of the joint can cause psychiatric problems. This includes depression. Other behavioral manifestations include (1) anxiety; (2) lack of motivation; and (3) occasional panic.

Respiratory

Because cannabis is typically taken by smoking, this act can greatly irritate the bronchial passageways of a cannabis user. As a result, inflammation of the airways can occur. Inflammation of the airways, in turn, can cause difficulty in breathing because of constricted passage where air should pass through. With continuous cannabis use, long-term inflammation can occur. This can eventually result in changes in the cellular composition of the lung cells. One of the most common effects of marijuana addiction is bronchitis.

Cardiovascular

Cannabis sativa is widely notorious for causing that "high" on the person who is using the roll of joint. This may be attributed to the fact that the substances in a marijuana roll can cause your biochemical components to abruptly spike up. In particular, the adrenaline biochemicals in your body can cause effects that are similar to the fight or flight mechanism. Along with these effects is tachycardia. Tachycardia is increased heart rate. When this occurs on a regular basis, the person may suffer from overworking of the heart. In turn, this may cause chest pain. This can eventually result in heart failure.

These are just some of the effects that marijuana addiction can do to your body. If you want to stray away from these effects, you should refrain from trying out the substance as much as you can.
