    wasn’t weed in direct competition with plastic at the time as well? Plastic is a huge industry now, and plastic companies have an interest in keeping hemp as a dangerous resource. It’s all about money.

  2. SpaceTimeExplorer Says:

    People have been brainwashed to think that weed is evil, and most people don’t bother to think about it for themselves. They don’t seem to know that George Washington grew it to make hemp, or that our government hands it out to people as medicine as part of a long-running medical study.

    i once got so angry i came very close to physically hurting someone i care for - i did not ultimately give in to this impulse, but the sheer memory of that awful moment was enough for me never to get that angry again with loved ones… and things have been better since :)

  4. MDK236 Says:

    Funny and informative, but the methods of reducing anger that the last doctor mentions can be condesending and fuel the rage even more I think.

  5. Lexx223 Says:

    not to mention, it makes your hand really fast for playing guitar.

    I can’t believe people have rated this comment negatively. Squares…

    weed helps countless things

    Chronic masturbation can reduce the effects of “roid rage” due to testosterone. Al’shairyarse I know but true! It may scarceface a healthy lifestyle though.

  9. atleastitsnotcrack Says:

    I’m just saying I found a small (less then 1mg) daily dose of THC&CBD most beneficial in a drug induced happiness sense compared to others But that said I am against all drugs!. Again I must say fixing the cause of the problem is far better then putting on a ‘plaster’. Paroxentine I think is a evil drug and should be illegal the sensations I experienced are almost idential to those that MDMA users decribe! If one is unhappy it is for a reason no drug will fix that reason.

  10. atleastitsnotcrack Says:

    I’m sorry, I hate to say this I have to agree with that in a way. I did try that for a while the only illegal drug I have ever taken!I’d have to say while on a constant small dose it is far more beneficial then Paroxetine, Olanzapine or Fluoxetine. The decrease in intelligence is less then I found with Paroxetine too. However when ‘coming down’ I became very angry and so I liken it to tobacco as a stress reliever where if you didn’t smoke tobacco in the first place you wouldn’t feel that stress!

  11. atleastitsnotcrack Says:

    I strongly disagree with physical venting of anger as it will teach you to do so spontaniously in a trigger situation! I always vent verbally myself, the real cause of my anger is the inablity to interact with others. Anger management is putting on a plaster becuase you hurt yourself. You should learn how not to hurt yourself. One needs to learn to deal with the issue as anger is really a cryout. HELP! I can’t find a solution to this problem I feel cornered I must fight or run away to escape.

    It is definitely possible, however, most peoples endorphins are associated with pain. Whether people’s mind’s attribute pain with anger, it is possible, just not proven. Then again, in science, anything is possible.

    Most people’s endorphins are associated sexually, truth is, we just don’t know.

  13. spikesmth Says:

    But if your mind associates endorphins with aggression, wouldn’t that cause problems and encourage anger?

  14. Whore4Horror Says:

    Amen brother. Fuck anger management when you got the medicine for it. Weed is also complimented well with a healthy sexual lifestyle or chronic masturbation.

  15. johnhart30 Says:

    It has been linked to raising the threshold of the amount of anger one can sustain in the future before “losing it.” This is why anger management exists.

  16. johnhart30 Says:

    In my knowledge of psychology which I have a degree in, I would have to disagree with this guy to a point. Psychiatry and psychology are two completely different platforms, kind of like comparing apples and oranges.

    The whole point of releasing anger is the release of endorphins. The release of these endorphins raises the pain threshold in the brain ultimately.

    Smokin’ a blunt helps too.
