Weed

Weed affects relationships. Marijuana use can impact the relationships people have with their family and friends in different ways. If marijuana use doesn't disappear or decrease a great deal it can possibly lead to negative outcomes.

According to psychotherapist Stacey Gorlicky, weed users “ they associate more with a clique of other addicts trapped in the same habit of pot smoking.” Weed users are gaining more friends who indulge in Weed smoking because it guarantees a frequent high. Although it also guarantee an on going addiction.
