Does pot kill your brain cells?The reason I ask is many people say it does!
The problem is that if you kill your brain, then eventually you will die cuz you die if you don't have brain cells.
Many people smoke incredibly large amounts of weed in their lives and never have ever had a death caused by just smoking weed.
In contrast people die all the time from things that we know cause brain damage, like huffing paint or drinking alcohol.
So how can it kill brain cells but not kill the person??
We can't be alive without brain cells right?
some one said "if people die of paint fumes it's not from brain damage"
WRONG
Death from inhalation of organic solvents comes from loss of body control due to death brain cell mass
so cannabis should have ATLEAST a few deaths
because if It does kill brain cells proportionally to use then that means some people would have had to have died from it
If you die of alcohol toxicity your brain is dead and that is what killed you
Also I did not ask if being high could lead to making a bad decision like getting into a wreck
I want Biochemical pathways of braincell damage
Like which chemical receptors are involved or which metabolites are produced?
I know the CB1 and CB2 type receptors are what triggers the "high" but what makes the chemical toxic?

I've probably smoked about 15 acres of weed so far, but I am mentally sharp as a pencil..lol.

Well, it doesn't kill enough brain cells to kill you, but it definitely kills enough to make you dumb.
Sneezing kills brain cells, too...just not very many. You have a lot of brain cells.

It might kill a few brain cells but not enough to worry about. You kill brain cells every time you cough.
You're right, though, alcoholism can cause serious brain damage, but I've never seen it happen with pot. We all know people who ruined their lives with alcohol, that is very common. But as many as 1/3 of Americans have smoked pot more than once or twice and who knows -anyone- who's ruined his life with pot?
