Many people think of cannabis (or marijuana) as a benign drug with only minimal drawbacks that can be endured when used for therapeutic and recreational purposes (e.g., Zimmer & Morgan, 1997). Cannabis is depicted in popular culture in a way that is likely intended to be innocuous and even humorous, which feeds permissive ideas about the substance. Others, however, contend that there are a variety of negative effects connected to cannabis usage that may eventually lead to a serious public health issue if its use increases.
