Hello, these are some sources that I would like to use while editing the article.
== Overall Tone of Article and Veracity of Information ==


1.
Wow. Just wow. Is this Misplaced Pages? This article is so obviously slanted against cannabis use that it rivals governmental and treatment-industry propoganda. I direct your attention to such obvious lies as "...and in the US 10 to 20% of consumers who use cannabis daily become dependent." Really? A 20% dependency rate? That's laughable. And the one accurate fact cited - the zero mortality rate - was only done so begrudgingly, surrounding it with weasely language suggesting that a lack of sufficient research renders that fact as suspect.

: I do not believe that the general public will take much of this article seriously. While most claims are properly sourced, its tone is approaching that of NIDA propaganda. Much of the article mentions claims that are inconclusive, out of context, rarely occur, etc. Confounding is rarely eliminated and evidence is weak for many claims. Some claims are likely simple associations, yet many readers will interpret this as implying causation. These points are not always made clear to the reader. ] (]) 15:59, 10 March 2016 (UTC)

This article shows which states that have legalized marijuana for recreational use, medical use, or have not legalized it yet. It also says the year that the states legalized.
==Twisted Article==


2.
This is one of the most twisted articles I've read on wikipedia. Let me get this straight? webmd is a valid source of clinical research? Smoking Grass does not cause COPB so all that coughing you see with users coughing up blood is what then?

In this article, a Manhattan resident experiments with rats and the effects of marijuana. The article explains how we do not know anything about marijuana due to the federal government not investing the time or resources to study the benefits and effects of this drug. In this study, it is confirmed that drug abuse symptoms are passed down through generations. However, the effects of marijuana are less severe than tobacco, nicotine and alcohol due to the fact marijuana is not a neurotoxin and it does not have connections to lung cancer. It also does not bring the risk of sudden death without a secondary factor like other drugs. Science, however, has found a clear indicator that marijuana can change developing brains, possibly affecting mental abilities and dispositions for people whose brain is still developing. The study also shows that there are positive effects with chronic pain. Cannabinoids interacts with receptors on the cells in the brain and immune system which allow them to reduce pain and inflammation. There is also a benefit when it comes to diseases like multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, and PTSD.

This article is beneficial to this article because it does show the possible benefits of marijuana if it were to be legalized. Marijuana has many benefits for multiple reasons and there has not been enough research done by the FDA or the federal government. Marijuana does have negative effects when used at a young age but so does every drug. Marijuana is the only drug that could have major benefits to the well-being of the population if it was regulated and managed.

This article reviews the effects of marijuana and other cannabinoids on posttraumatic stress disorder. Clinical studies generally support the biological benefits of cannabis potential therapeutic effects, however, it all depends on the dosage. There has been reported benefits of cannabis and PTSD when it comes to nightmares and sleeping. Marijuana also benefits when it comes to depression, anxiety, and psychosis with PTSD. However, the negative benefits with PTSD include the development of the brain and misuse of the drug. The study states that there is not enough research yet to determine if marijuana will truly benefit PTSD more than harm it.
This article doesn't do a good job of distinguishing between causation and correlation. Use of the phrases "increased risk" (Depressive disorder), "worsen the occurrence" (Mania symptoms) and "increases the risk" (Suicidal behavior) asserts causality instead of accurately discussing correlation. It is just as, if not more, likely that persons with depression, mania or suicidality are using cannabis to cope with these conditions than that the cannabis is causing or contributing to these conditions (i.e. increasing the risk or worsening the occurrence). Let's talk about it and see if we can make more accurate descriptions. ] (]) 06:08, 16 February 2015 (UTC)nate vazquez

This study is going to help the article because it does state that there is harmful effect when it comes to marijuana. But it also states many benefits when it comes to marijuana and PTSD and other diseases. It helps when it comes to sleeping, depression, and anxiety. These benefits are huge when it comes to the normal population because it could help millions of people that suffer from these problems. The real problem of marijuana is the risk of taking the wrong dosage, which is a problem with all drugs that are legal or illegal.

Hello fellow Wikipedians,


I have just modified {{plural:1|one external link|1 external links}} on ]. Please take a moment to review . If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit ] for additional information. I made the following changes:
*Corrected formatting/usage for http://www.ancd.org.au/publications/pdf/rp11_cannabis_questions.pdf


I think this article has good and relevant information, however some sections are lacking. I would suggest adding in more information in the mania symptoms section and also including more information and statistics for the gateway drug hypothesis section. Also, the brain subsection under physical health could easily be more lengthy. ] (]) 19:26, 17 June 2021 (UTC)

Adding More Information

Hello, these are some sources that I would like to use while editing the article.
