		<description>weed isn&#039;t the problem, it&#039;s just an escape like any other, it has draw backs like any other. letting it consume me is my choice. you hair will grow back if you don&#039;t smoke as much.</description>

		<description>I can really relate to you &quot;Theguy&quot; 8-9 months ago I had a job, when things got fuzzy and stress full there I quit. I havent had a job since, Just recently I am starting to quit and at the time I did have a job every paycheck I would a little over a qtr oz. As for the hair thinning, yeah, big time. My family has a great thick hair and now its caused my self confidence to diminish. I was really outgoing to, babes, friends, everyone wanted to be around me and I them. Nowadays I dont do s***, and I hardly EVER see my friends, I havent tried to date in a long while. Its been over a week and I can feel somewhat better. The craving for it is gone but now theres that little voice thats saying o one hit will be ok, go ahead you deserve it, but so far I able to refuse, regardless the fact that Im constantly around it, and that my roommate makes a business of it, and what friends I do have offer to smoke me up just to hang with me.</description>

		<description>oh seb, simmer down... i believe this article and the person who wrote this knows things about marijuana that are completely under the radar.. because whenever i smoke dope for a period of over 2 weeks, my hair and skin get SO OILY!! i also become highly pessimistic, angry and guilty from my lack of ambition... not everyone is the same, and some people can smoke down hard and have no side effects (associated to their hair at least).. but if you&#039;re smoking down on weed and see hair shedding, thinning and greasiness, weed is most certainly causing it.. I&#039;m already seeing my skin calm down now that I&#039;ve quit for a week.

to sum things up... 8 months ago i was weed free, my hair was rich and i only needed to wash it every 3 days.. i was also very outgoing and felt good, got dates and was getting laid. 8 months later, having smoked anywhere from 6-12 j&#039;s a day, my hair is thin and needs to be washed every day. i also never leave the house (video games, movies, weed, food, music, masturbation).. i have developed an agoraphobic depression and have lost respect in myself.. go figure. 

 needless to say, i hate weed and hope they never legalize it. and anyone who thinks that its not addictive is purely an idiot.</description>

		<description>I smoked cannabis in my teens and then started smoking it again about 4 years ago. I stopped smoking cannabis 8 months ago and 2 months after i stopped i got alopecia through stress and now have great balding patches all over my head which are getting worse. Maybe I should of just carried on smoking it!</description>

		<description>So many of these arguments are an attempt to strawman the benifits of cannabinoids.  You don&#039;t have to smoke to injest them and get the chemical into your blood.  The only knock at cannabinoids they have here is the hormonal link of increased aromatase activity and estrogen conversion from testosterone, proving the link between high estrogen in men and also high DHT to compensate for these female forces at work in the body.  We get this kind of posion everyday for xenoestrogens in plastics and pesticides/preservatives (the wax on your apples) and phytoestrogens in plants (this is what they are refering to).  Xeno have a lifespan of 1 year to 10 years where the phytoestrogens exist for a week to a month.  Funny how they don&#039;t say tupperware in the microwave causes hairloss, shitty thing is, it does.  Some people are very sensitive to phytoestrogens so there is a grain of truth here but like everything, take in moderation and you will be fine.</description>
