It's all about the long term effects. It might be fun now but....

Quote:
Depression(19), anxiety(20), and personality disturbances(21) have been associated with marijuana use. Research clearly demonstrates that marijuana has potential to cause problems in daily life or make a person?s existing problems worse. Because marijuana compromises the ability to learn and remember information, the more a person uses marijuana the more he or she is likely to fall behind in accumulating intellectual, job, or social skills. Moreover, research has shown that marijuana?s adverse impact on memory and learning can last for days or weeks after the acute effects of the drug wear off(22, 23).
