ive smoked lots and lots of weed in my life but if anything ive gotten smarter since i became a chronic (90 percent average in hs..honour role, scholarship to ubc, and all that nerd shit)

ive dosed about a dozen times in the last year and i havent really noticed a difference in my cognitive ability(eww scientific :)) if anything my short term memory has been slightly fucked, but it was never good to begin with...how about yourselves?

Consentration a little off at times. It takes alot to affect school smarts i guess

just a little forgetful sometimes.. short term stuff.
no cognitive difficulties
i still see things with a level head and comprehend things so i guess i'm in the clear! :P

drugs helped me through high school
i think i'm getting dumber now because my mind isn't being tested much anymore... not because of drugs...

I can totally relate to that. But my job now requires me to think, so my brain gets some exercise.

my short term memory is just a wee bit shot...

actually.. I dont even think I have one :\

nah weed just makes u dumb when yur high but yur iq jumps right up when yur sober again

ok this is a theory i heard about drugs in general but the high you get is because the drugs poison you and your body numbs out while your liver fights off off the poison.

kinda strange but kinda makes sense

my memory is still pretty good.....like when i study for tests and shit than its allll good, but i sumtimes blank out when im thinking about something....like im thinking and than for a second i look into my lil head and theres no brain (JUST for a second tho!!!!)....its just a blank, black space.....THAN its back and i get my train of thought back.......that only happens RANDOMLY and kinda RARELY!!
