We all know that cannabis can expand your mind but can it also act as a study aid? Your parents, straight-head co-workers or doctor would probably advise you not to attempt this as it can affect your memory and/or motivation but I for one was helped by the Green Man when studying for my exams.
I was recently speaking to a group of A-Level students regarding this and surprisingly discovered that more than half of them would recommend it as it actually INCREASED their concentration levels. Several of them confessed to smoking a few joints by themselves most nights whilst trying to finish of their coursework.
So much for the stereotypical 'piss head' student. These people seemed to be focused and had a sensible approach towards study. They did not drink excessively. But they swore by the help that cannabis gave them.
This raises the question to our government and leaders..... Why is cannabis a controlled substance that one can be sent to jail with murderers and rapists simply for possession, whilst alcohol remains a nice legal, taxable asset to the nation. Don't get me wrong, I like the odd drink and if that was made illegal too then I would be at the front line of any revolt but I would happily trade legal alcohol for legal cannabis if the offer was made.
