This article is full of shat
If you’ve ever smoked any in your life then you would know it’s not a hallucinogen. It being a hallucinogen was a myth put in the USA propaganda movie “Reefer madness”. It is still commonly portrayed as a hallucinogen in the media to provide comedic effect when characters smoke it, however it does NOT make people hallucinate. Is it mood elevating and mind altering? Yes. Is it a hallucinogen? NO. It also does not cause PHYSICAL withdrawal symptoms when stopped, it will only cause mental withdrawal. Opiates and cocaine cause physical withdrawal. LSD causes hallucinations so that would be a hallucinogen. Do your research and get things right and know what your talking about or don’t write articles about things you don’t know and let someone who does know write them. You sound like a media brainwashed moron.
