Are there any negative effects from smoking weed?

After hitting the bong a few times I was wondering about weed and it's effects on the body? What are some risks associated with smoking? Can it cause lung cancer or troubled breathing? Is there any relation with skitsofrenia?

I'm just wondering because I have been smoking for about 10 months now and really enjoy it and am just trying to figure out any ailments that may come in the future because of smokin the greeeeeeeen!

Yeah. There is.

You'll become skitzo if you sit inside smoking 5g a day out of your bong every day for a few years. Don't do it.

Other than that, you'll be fine. Don't be a loner, smoke with other people.

You can't run a mile for shit if you smoke everyday. But you can still walk 10 miles on a golf course 3-4 times a week.

Oh yeah, i forgot about this one. it's more an annoyance than a negative effect tho.

black lung nasty mucus in the mornings and after rips if you smoke a lot you might cough up a little bit of it.

The Snap Cough

Putting any kind of heated material into your lungs is never good for your health; however, this can be avoided with a vaporizer.

End up forgetting shit all the time....but I disagree with something said here....I run better since i started smoking weed. At least 10% faster, 25% farther

I'd say a bong hit is much smoother than a vaporizer hit in terms of how hot it feels in your lungs. Then again, my bong does have 2 percs and ice and my vaporizer is a whip vape without a cooler

True, but lung capacity does shrink a very small percentage if your a heavy user. I'm guessing you run miles daily? Regardless of whether you smoke or not, if you're healthy, you're healthy. I don't run. I don't like to be winded unless its pure competition like a full court pickup game. It's just unpleasant, especially while high.
