? BBC Horizon: Cannabis: The Evil Weed?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00hhmd1
Cannabis is the world’s favourite drug, but also one of the least understood. Can cannabis cause schizophrenia? Is it addictive? Can it lead you on to harder drugs? Or is it simply a herb, an undervalued medicine?

Addiction specialist Dr John Marsden discovers that modern science is finally beginning to find answers to these questions. John traces the cannabis plants’ birthplace in Kazakhstan; finds the origins of our sensitivity to cannabis in the simple sea squirt; and finds out just what it does to our brains.

He meets people who have been changed by this drug in drastically different ways – from those whose lives have been shattered to those who lives have been revived.

Shoud Drug Addiction Be Considered a Disease?

Question by LalaLand: Shoud drug addiction be Considered a Disease?

Best answer:

Answer by Jaymjensen
If we allow alcoholism and gambling to be disorders then we might as well. It’s retarded that people think like that.
The only reason why we classify it as a disease or disorder is so drug companies can pump out more drugs and make more money.
In my opinion there is no such thing as Alcoholism, or Gambling addictions, or even depression or ADD. I think it’s stupid people buy into that because we are all hypochondirachs. They’ll probably come out with a new addiction tomorrow about soda drinking disorders. F*cking nonsense!

Answer by Windy
