    if you’re into that, just wait till you hear about alcohol and cigarettes! Anxiety, paranoia and panic attacks seem fine compared to Cirrhosis, COPD, Emphysema, Cancer, Stroke, Renal Failure, Kidney Failure, and Fatty Liver Disease. All of them painful, all of them deadly.

    But god forbid people smoke some weed 🙄 They might in very rare occasions get a temporary increase in anxiety!

      More whataboutism. We’re talking about weed. And I’m not making the blanket statement that no one should smoke weed. I’m saying it does have health risks that should not be ignored.

      Also it’s offensive that you would trivialize the suffering that people go through in a panic attack.
