synthetic marijuana - aka/herbal incense: Hi5 ?? I would like to know if the above mentioned is harmful to the body and how addictive it is. My friend claims he no longer takes it but I find those little packages tucked away in secret corners in his garage. I'm told by a distributor of herbal incense that it can really 'f' someone's life. First it effects the brain in the 1st yr & guarantees cancer in 10 yrs. My friend gets very irritable, fights over nothing, seems to misunderstand & twist around anything I say to something negative yet other times he is in his own world like in a trance... He is also loosing weight, bad tossing & turning at night. Once he got so sick throwing up and almost passed out & that's when he confessed to me that he was using this herbal incense called Hi5.. please inform me how to help and how bad is it?? thank you...

Read answer →What is the real war on drugs about?
I am interested to know what someone who works as a counselor with drug and alcohol addicted people feels about the war on drugs. In my opinion it’s a tragedy and legalization or decriminalization makes a lot more sense, and the criminalization of a medical issue just creates a lot of unnecessary pain and violence in our society. But then again I don’t have a personal experience with addiction and so maybe I don’t understand the whole story. What do you think? Is decriminalization a sensible idea, or is the drug war a war that needs to be won?

I am trying to beat a very long and hard marijuana habit. I have been a heavy smoker since grade 10 and I have been a daily smoker since my first year at college. I am now about to graduate and I need to get my life together. I am trying to quit but I am so used to smoking before bed that I can’t fall asleep if I don’t have at least a couple of tokes. I have not smoked for 3 days now and I probably haven’t slept more than a couple of hours combined since then. I am so tired but I can’t sleep. It is like torture. How long is it going to take before I can sleep without needing to smoke first…?
