If you stop smoking, that's the best thing you can do. You are young, you've only smoked a couple of cigarettes and you can reverse the effects if you quit. Good for you for being concerned about it! Be tough and stop smoking now!
I would suggest not smoking cannibus (weed). If it isn't helping you, why smoke it? Please don't get me wrong, I am a firm believer in the medicinal value of weed, but if you aren't able to tolerate the effects, then stay away from it, please. You also may have smoked weed that was sprayed with a pesticide. You are so young...unless you have chronic pain or cancer, don't smoke weed. Its obviously not helping you. And...yes...I am a mother of 2 young adults in their 20's.
Smoking has many side effects. It may reduce your desire to have sex. But this a long term effect. By cessation of smoking you will better your overall health and may affect your sexual life positively
Major component in sexual problem is mental. If you take it lightly and calmly, you will be able to have sex in a better manner. To enhance your sexual stamina you may google the followign techniques and pick up few of them and practice regularly.
Male deer exercise. kege exercise. Satkriya.
I thought I wouldnt be able to cope, my wife smokes, and she still smokes to my dismay, her grandmother is sick with COPD and on oxygen, and she still will not even read what I read about the effects of smoking..her grandmother just had to give up after being hospitalized for the umpteenth time...
I though I wouldnt be able to, I bought some Nicorette inhaler cartridges, then I decided not to use them as I wanted to clear my body of Nicotine once and for all...
This is a start and maybe it will open his eyes to the possibility that young people DO die from smoking and young people DO get various types of cancer, and that it is much easier for young people to quit and he should do it now, while he has a fighting chance.
Good luck and it's nice to see that you think enough of this person to ask.
You are playing with fire..when you have that kind of strong reaction you are effecting deep structures in your brain in ways that might cause damage. These are big warning signs.
If you are pregnant it is good that you stopped smoking weed. Not only is the action of smoking itself is detrimental to the health of the baby, but we do not know how cannabis intake can affect the developing brain. If you were using it for nausea, you may have hyperemesis gravidarum, a condition that causes excessive nausea and vomiting during early stages of pregnancy.
Hope he is regularly screened by a doctor and signs of complications are caught early. That also will be a time his sense of immortality will be tested and a chance for his attitude to change and for him to quit.
It is normal for all young people to feel immortal and diabetics are no different. Not only will nothing ever harm or touch them but they also can be attempting to deny the existence of their condition. They simply want acceptance by their peer group and to fit in at all costs.
his hacking defintely could be cigarettes, marijuana, or smoking heroin(its called chasing the dragon), snorting really doesnt cause that,ive tried it all and i hack up alot because of smoking weed and cigarettes now and then..best of luck with you and your son..stay strong..if you have any other questions about treament or anything drug related feel free to write to me anytime...
Marijuana can cause panic attacks in some people. Mainly in people who have been smoking for a long time, however, I suffered panic attacks after only 4 months of smoking. Marijuana stimulates the pleasure cells in your brain. If you wan't a scientific answer do a web search. Personally, marijuana affects on me were : increased taste, increased hunger, increased sense of hearing, increased sexual pleasure, increased interest in simple or mundane activities, increased paranoia, and sedation.
Hi. I'm just curious in people's opinions of something. I am an ex smoker. No longer have the habit. My child's daycare have been taught that smoking kills people etc.. so move away from people if they're smoking. A lot of parents from the daycare have come in abusing the child care Centre as they're smokers and there young children keep telling them they're going to die.
This can be dangerous and can cause a number of side effects.
All the side effects that you may have can last any number of time. Weed effects each person differently and since you are young and it was your first time...it is hard to say how long it will last. I still think that if you are scared get checked out. If its been a while tell your mom and get checked out. Your health and life is more important then if you will be in trouble or not.
As long as she does not have lung related problems such as asthma and she quits now, all the adverse effects of smoking should dissipate within a few years. If she does not quit she will eventually notice increased aging of her skin relative to her non-smoking friends, increased chance of getting lung,oral and other cancers later in life and multiple respiratory problems.
Even if nothing "runs in her family", it does not mean it will not affect her.
When you see the horrible effects that can happen to the baby because of smoking, quitting will make it that much worth it. Smoking ciggs can cause cleft lip and stunted growth as well as respiratory problems. Quitting for those 9 months to avoid a life time of health challenges for your child will be worth it in the end. I promise you!
Not only is the action of smoking itself is detrimental to the health of the baby, but we do not know how cannabis intake can affect the developing brain. If you are using it for nausea, you may have hyperemesis gravidarum, a condition that causes excessive nausea and vomiting during early stages of pregnancy. There are other medications that are proven safer during pregnancy that are effective for nausea that your OB can prescribe for you.
then your chances of getting pregnant are really high, especially if you are sexually activie near your days of ovulation which you are since you said every 2-3 days. You need to take a test and see if you are pregnant, use your first morning urine and follow the directions as followed, and stop smoking yesterday! Plus get on protection, you are so young, have fun and worry about having babies later!
You are not going to do permanent damage to your brain from a couple nights of drinking and smoking pot. I don't mean to encourage doing things that have some risk of creating dependency, but the actions of cannabis are temporary-- as are most of the effects of alcohol-- provided you aren't drinking to the point of alcohol toxicity (for example, drinking so much that you pass out, repeatedly).
My boyfriend and I have been TTC for going on 5 months now. We are both 19.. please don't judge. We are both ready and have been for a long time. I'm worried something may be wrong with me, because I've tried everything I have been able to find. From sex positions, to healthier living. We both have recently quit smoking as well. I've seen all these people around me get pregnant easy, and on accident.
The severity of the difference would also be dependant on the length of your Herceptin treatment. Oncologists monitor these side effects very closely and I'm sure your Onc. will take this into consideration and discuss the risks of continuing your treatment. The longer the treatment the less the incidence of heart damage but each case is different. Regards ....
The weed part is easy to find out -- stop smoking for awhile and see if the problem goes away. One thing about weed is that there's a point in life when a lot of people get anxious when stoned -- I don't know if this is happening to you but it's very common. I'm an old guy now, but when I was young everyone smoked and now almost none of us do because eventually we all got anxious when stoned.
