Cannabis |
|
|
|
|
|
The
most commonly used illegal drug. Comes as green leaves or a dark brown
block. |
|
|
Has lots of different slang names including blow, dope, draw, skunk and weed. |
|
|
Some
types of cannabis are quite mild. Some will blow your head off. |
|
|
Most
people who use cannabis mix it with tobacco and then smoke it.
|
|
|
Although it can make people feel relaxed and giggly it can also make them feel worried. They might think friends are talking about them. |
|
|
It can stop people from thinking clearly, make people forget things and er…er...um... make people act more slowly (like getting out of danger in time). |
|
|
Some people get into a habit of smoking it a lot and only feel OK when they are stoned. |
|
|
Smoking it for a long time might damage the lungs. |
 |
It is still against the law to have cannabis on you, to give away or sell to other people. |
