Reefer madness: More young Americans smoking marijuana than ever before

Ā 

More young Americans are smoking marijuana and spacing out on psychedelic drugs than ever before, a new federally-funded health survey released Monday reveals.

Ā 

The study conducted by the University of Michigan for the National Institutes of Health In found that 43% of adults ages 19 to 30 smoked cannabis at some point last year — a significant jump from 34% five years ago and 29% in 2011 and the highest recorded since 1988.

Ā 

Similarly, 29% of young adults reported smoking weed in the prior months compared to 21% in 2016 and 17% in 2011.

Ā 

Daily marijuana use also surged to 11% last year, compared to 8% in 2016 and 6% in 2011.

Ā 

The increase in marijuana comes as 19 states have legalized the recreational use of cannabis in recent years — including New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Massachusetts.

Ā 

Polls also show more public acceptance of cannabis use.

Ā 

Use of psychedelic drugs or hallucinogens had been stable for decades — until last year.

Ā 

Eight percent of young adults reported past-year hallucinogen use, representing an all-time high since the category was first surveyed in 1988.

Ā 

By comparison, just 5% of young adults reported hallucinogen use in 2016, and only 3% did so in 2011.

Ā 

The types of psychedelic drugs cited by users included LSD, MDMA, mescaline, peyote, ā€œshroomsā€ or psilocybin, and PCP.

This just in, politicians don't read the bills they vote on:

Oops, Minnesota Accidentally Legalized THC-Spiked Seltzer

Ā 

That day, the Minnesota State Legislature passed a law allowing the sale of products containing THC. It was a baffling development, considering state Republicans’ longstanding opposition to marijuana legalization, yet Statute 151.72 passed—unanimously, with zero debate, in a GOP-controlled Senate.Ā 

Ā 

There is some debate about whether some Republican lawmakers read or understood the statute, which was sponsored by the Democratic-Farmer-Labor opposition. For the past few years, the state has already allowed the sale of products containing delta-8 THC, the less-potent minor cannabinoid. But the new bill also legalized the sale of delta-9 THC, the major cannabinoid that creates the euphoric effect most marijuana users seek. With that, the least-regulated legal THC market in the United States was open for business.

Ā 

ā€œThat doesn’t legalize marijuana … we didn’t just do that, did we?ā€ Republican Sen. Jim Abeler joked during the session. They hadn’t. Instead, they legalized the manufacture and sale of products containing hemp-derived THC—edibles, capsules, tinctures, and drinks—with high enough concentrations for most people to feel their effects. ā€œI thought we were doing a technical fix, and it winded up having a broader impact than I expected,ā€ Sen. Abeler told the Star Tribune.

I went and bought a vape today.Ā  Smoking so much flower is rough on the lungs.Ā  I've only tried a couple puffs but I like it so far.

I've found those things tear my lungs apart far worse than flower.Ā  I take a hit and cough to beat all every time.Ā  Tried different brands/dispensaries and they just hurt.Ā  Joints are the way to go for me.Ā  Pipes, bongs etc make me cough too much also.Ā  I can take just the right amount of a joint.Ā  Hopefully, one day, they get edibles to be consistent and a little faster acting and maybe faster to wear off.Ā  That would be greatĀ
