(ScienceNewsJournal) A recent study conducted by an international team of researchers revealed that habituated cannabis users, who smoked pot regularly over a longer period of time, fared worse at midlife compared to their parents.
The research was aimed at examining the economic and social consequences of cannabis usage over a prolonged duration of time. According to the researchers, persistent marijuana users are likely to experience greater financial and work-related difficulties in midlife than those who are not addicted at all or have used it only occasionally. Habituated cannabis users also dealt with relationship troubles, anti-social behavior in the workplace, lack of motivation and bout of depression in adolescence, which worsened as years of regular use continued.
