Does Smoking Cannabis Make You Dumber ?

Is it a real thing or just a bogus argument that aims to reduce cannabis consumption among the public?

We’ve all read and heard about the different benefits and drawbacks that smoking cannabis can offer us. It has been used for decades by different people for different purposes. Some use it to just “chill out,” relax, and leave behind a stressful day, some to have fun with friends, other to become (presumably) more creative, and so on.

Today, people talk mostly about the benefits and positive effects of pot. Everyone will tell you how it helps her/him in one way or another. However, often, the desire to experience all these vivid feelings, makes one forget completely about some of the subtly hidden drawbacks.

A lot of regular cannabis users say that, in the long-term, they tend to become more absent-minded than usual. Also, they argue, sometimes they are more prone to forget stuff in their daily lives: not knowing where they last put their wallet in the house, forgetting what they went to the grocery store for, and so on. “Minor issues, but nothing too serious,” as they refer to it.
