DON’T INJECT THC

A study published in Nature found that taking THC intravenously can cause schizophrenia like symptoms.

Merry Jane discusses the brief and unhappy history of injecting THC:

  • “Basically, folks would boil weed buds into a “broth,” pull that filtered broth up into a syringe, then inject it. Rather than getting lit, they got sick AF instead, which included bouts of vomiting, intense muscle pains, and serious heart problems.”
  • Snorting weed isn’t a good idea either: “You’ll end up blowing pot-snot all day and never catching a buzz.”
