What Are The Effects Of Smoking Skunk(cannabis)?

Firstly, as you may already know, buying and being in possession of cannabis is an illegal act in almost all countries in the world. Therefore, before you go ahead and buy or take such a drug, you should be fully aware that you will be breaking the law by doing so.

Skunk cannabis is one of the strongest strains of the drug and so the effects can be exaggerated. Many people who take it say they feel more relaxed, chilled out and therefore a calmer feeling leaves them in a state of joy. Others have talked about feeling very hungry - known as 'getting the munchies' - while others say they suddenly find everything funny and can't stop laughing.

Although the effects stated above sound very harmless and even enjoyable, taking skunk cannabis can also cause some less desirable effects. People have said they have hallucinations and that everything around them slows down.

It is also important to note that many doctors and researchers have indicated that prolonged use of cannabis can result in mental health conditions such as paranoia and even schizophrenia. Also if you try to quit smoking cannabis it can actually be as hard as quitting smoking cigarettes. You will feel similar withdrawal symptoms and so many people who try actually fail to ever get off it. Therefore you must take all this into consideration and think is it really worth it?

Okay, so I've tried both, ''normal'' weed and skunk and I have to say, smoking skunk was one of the worst experiences in my entire life... It's not like weed at all, smoking weed is enjoyable but skunk... Well I experienced a panic attack, my heart almost exploded and I had a nervous breakdown, I was sure I was going crazy and I was going to die... I don't even want to mention all the effects, I just advise you.. If you're smart, you won't touch it...

A was finding it hard to breath   my heart was beating very very fast  don't touch it  you are a mug if you do

Please don't minimise the effects of skunk, as opposed to cannabis resin or less potent marijuana. That is misguided and harmful. I work with the fall-out of it every day and believe me there are individuals out there that are seriously unable to handle the effects. Great if it's not you. Well done. You have my admiration that you can 'handle your liquor'. Let's not go there by discussing the countless lives affected by personality change and aggressive behaviour; not just the individual but the families affected by it.

So... If you feel that skunk has no place in a discussion of harm relating to drugs then you have no insight into the problem and probably should be elsewhere, eg a Probation Office or a Drugs Misuse agency.

Simple, really.

What is wrong with you guys?  People have come onto this forum to share their PERSONAL EXPERIENCE and you feel it's okay to tell them something different.  I find this really arrogant.  Weed does not suit everyone.

You will not hallucinate or have delusions from weed. Do not listen to Tausif they've never touched the stuff. They only know what they have been taught. You will get hungry, laugh, and be a little stupid while under its affect. It can be harmful to your lungs. However, you can eat it. It is adsorbed though the fat cells when injected. The 1st time you wont feel much.

Smoking Skunk has many psychoactive and physiological effects when it is taken. Its side effects are memory difficulties or paranoid and strange ideas, and can lead to psychotic symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions.

You can take information from the following websites

General malaise,depression, aggression, inability to interact, tiredness, psychological addiction.  On the plus side with moderate use you can have a great time and a good laugh with friends but the problem with today's teenagers is they don't seem to know when to stop or moderate their use.  If you ate chocolate 24-7 the effects could be catastrophic...same with drug taking.

We have a person smoking what we guess is skunk weed in our condo building.  A few other persons are feeling ill.  I had something that felt like anxiety and heart racing today.  I'm a healthy person, it was not pleasant.  I had a headache and nausea on a previous day. This is results from people who are not smoking it, ie second hand smoke.  If it works for you then choose your poison but we must realize just like other things the effect depends on their body chemistry not just the quality of the product.

Many of my childhood friends were burnouts/potheads in high school and into their 30's.  Most of them wish they hadn't and feel their brain function was impacted.  I have a couple friends who legally grow/take for medical reasons.  They feel it is the lesser evil.

I guess everything depends on:

- whar sort of marijuana you smoke.

- how often you smoke.

If you are going to smoke marijuhana, I would say think again, smoking anything is unnatural and bad for your health, however I will say that weed grown in the ground ie normal cannabis has to be the most natural, I read somewhere that it was grown years back for cow fodder, or did I hullicinate this? Other forms such as the strong strains and mixing anything with it in a smoke is not wise

Skun usage through smoking can truly cause lung problem but its psychoactive effect can not be managed by all users . Watch and shine your eye before usage.
