Harmful Drugs: Cannabis

Cannabis, a controversial drug, contains THC, which mimics brain chemicals and affects perception, appetite, and emotions. While some argue it's safer than alcohol, it poses health risks like lung cancer, addiction, and brain changes. High doses can cause anxiety, memory loss, paranoia, and hallucinations. Cannabis may trigger schizophrenia, especially in teenagers, increasing the risk of long-term psychotic symptoms.
