Does Cannabis make you an anti-social aggressive ?

[iknownothink]

I know this is going to be a controversial topic but hear me out.

I came to this forum a year or so ago having never smoked in my life (35 years old)l and I was under the impression that pot smokers were the most laid back relaxed people after watching movies and tv etc.. Now I'm a very social person I'm usually the one who organizes car cruises in our club and all the fun stuff we do at work in the office. So safe to say I was completely shocked how aggressive people are in here ! It's unbelievable. I know its a non moderated forum, but I'm apart of a few of them and I have never seen anything close to the Sh#$t that goes on in this group. I don't even check a few sub forums because all they do is fight and bitch.

The more that I think about it, the 3 close friends I do have that have all been smoking for years ( I love them to bits of course) but they all are very anti social and only have 2-3 friends in their life. And generally they are aggressive to other people whether it be at the pub on Fri night or while playing PUBG (online games)

The thing that I guess scared me a little is well that after trying pot for a month or so I don't know if it is just a placebo effect but I found my self wanting to bite back more and people and found that I was getting into more arguments online ?? I've stopped now and haven't smoked in 2 months.

So what are your thoughts guys who are pretty heavy smokers ? I'm not trying to offend anyone as I have also met some really nice people here. Does Cannabis make your more aggressive ? Or do just naturally aggressive people tend to smoke ? Or is it just the same logic as drinking .. it just lowers your inhibitions so all that built up anger you've held down over the years just leaks out a little haha.

Don't worry having been on this forum I understand the level of some of replies I am going to get similar to yours haha. But I was hoping a few decent members might put their 2 cents in. Post what ever you want i'll just scroll past them In a way you are answering the question though lol

People argue and bitch on here because theyre very serious about their craft and feel strongly about what works for them while growing, plus its the internet, but none of it reflects on the effect of smoking on peoples mood, also it would be a mistake to treat smokers or any other demographic as a monolith, everyones going thru their own shit, and id be willing to bet the most aggressive people u read on here would be considerably more so if they couldnt self medicate

In a lot of way I think your right.

It's like people who smoke smcigs say it calms them down, but they are always stressed out.
Potheads say the weed mellows them but they are also agro as fuck

That's was possibly my next thought if the majority though that it didn't. Do just naturally aggressive people tend to get attracted to weed ?
I'm not having a go at anyone, it's the internet you can do what your want at the end of the day. This is more just curiosity killed the cat thing.

I could give you a 1,000 of them buddy. I'm apart of about 4 different car groups, sure you might get the odd one or 2 who are ass hats but the % off friendly people to negative people is differently tipped into the negetive in here. I mean just look at the replies to this post haha.. It says it all.

I understand people been passionate about growing, but you don't need to abuse the person who you don't agree with. Sure it might get a few laughs but that person probably couldn't care less ?

I love how everyone instantly proves your point.
A simple "disagree" would be the correct response if it was wrong.

Yea that will happen when u label and condemn a group of people

If you read the OP again that's actually not what he did. He asked a question and shared his experiance and asked about others experiance.
Your response is putting more votes in the anti-social and aggressive box.

All manner of people smoke now.
Its not just for filthy hippies anymore.

Really, why post that here instead of on the Aussie thread where you hang out? Absolutely no ulterior motive I'm sure.

That may have been ur intention but it came off very stand-offish and smug, like “this is my opinion of the group, prove me wrong”. Read what u want into it, my original response was my best guess, but u guys only seem to want to read selectively/ respond to aggression
