MARIJUANA: experience the distorted reality --- contributed by @catherinedouglas
As I write, I want to be as real as I can be, so I beg your indulgence. Permit me the use of certain obscenities and foul language for that is how best I can explain the persona I want to embody.
Fuck, Michael I just had a recollection of a scene from DaVicin’s demon, a series I so enjoy, Becca screamed at her friend. In the scene she continued on, the pope was portrayed as gay and the plot twist was this, “he had a micro penis”.
WTF!!! This people are A’holes, how do they not let me feel the complete surge of joy that is supposed to pass through my body at this realization? and the thought that it would never happen makes its creation even more fun. This people keep pushing things too far.
THE HIGH.
Becca screamed at her friend. If I was, Michael, my thought would be…
IGBO nah bad thing oh, ah this girl is really high
Oh well Michael that is your thought oh, in Becca’s mind she did not give two fucks about anyone’s thoughts, she could careless because at this point it felt like she had hit a jack pot. She felt so giddy, oh she just realized that the thought process she just had, might not have crossed any other human’s mind, and at this moment she felt very special, she felt smart and in that moment, passer-by’s saw her as the irresponsible girl who has no self-respect! Smoking on the road, in public and a girl for that matter! Who does that?? And some might just want to be like her. SOCIETY, please make up your ‘F’ing mind.
you see, in that moment her reality is distorted. In that moment, what started out as an urge to calm the nerves was probably becoming a habit and as she thinks about it she imagines what her friend really would think when he sees this write up? False Reality.
Becca can pretend all she wants but deep down she knows the truth, that pretending not to feel does not stop the hurt or automatically send the pains or the feelings away. She felt down and she turned to drugs for the high. She takes solace in the distorted reality, the version of her life that has been altered in her memory by the dopamine and THC coursing through her bloodstream. She loved the rush. To experience this she smokes, she gets the high, she feels good, a very intoxicating feeling, and she wants to stop but she keeps going back.
BOOM, addiction, time is wasted and the entire cycle is repeated

Cannabis, also known as marijuana among other names,[n 1] is a psychoactive drug from the Cannabis plant intended for medical or recreational use.[16][17][18] The main psychoactive part of cannabis is tetrahydrocannabinol (THC); one of 483 known compounds in the plant,[19] including at least 65 other cannabinoids.[20] Cannabis can be used by smoking, vaporizing, within food, or as an extract.[21] Cannabis is often used for its mental and physical effects, such as a "high" or "stoned" feeling, a general change in perception, euphoria (heightened mood), and an increase in appetite.[21][22] Onset of effects is within minutes when smoked, and about 30 to 60 minutes when cooked and eaten.
The euphoria gotten from smoking cannabis is one of kind little wonder people keep going back for it, but oh well let me tell you a few of the side effects, aside from false reality and time wastage which I consider even more deadly and this is because in the course of wanting to wallow in that reality a little longer, addiction is formed and time is efficiently wasted.
Addiction experts in psychiatry, chemistry, pharmacology, forensic science, epidemiology, and the police and legal services engaged in delphic analysis regarding 20 popular recreational drugs. Cannabis was ranked 11th in dependence, 17th in physical harm, and 10th in social harm.
short term effect
• Decrease in short term memory
• Dryness of the mouth
• Impaired motor skills
• Red eyes
• Paranoia and anxiety
long term effect
• Addiction
• High risks of psychosis source
• Decrease mental ability
• Behavioural problems in children ( cases where mother is a user)
Need I say more??? Drug abuse is very prevalent in this generation of ours. It is saddening to live in a society where many cannot dream without been in a drug induced state, where getting and been tagged a junkie is the order of the day.
We lose so much time to chilling with the wrong crowd and getting high, really??? We set our lungs on fire, all for the high. We put ourselves in vulnerable positions all for the high.
highness is time wasting. Addiction once formed is not that easily broken. Take a reality check and switch lanes. What you see during the high are all illusions.
STAY WOKE
