As for Me weed was the best thing that happened to me.

When I was having trouble sleeping it made me sleep like a baby

When I lost appetite it made me eat like a glutton

When I was feeling timid it made me brave..

All these things happened with zero side effects..

Lastly no matter the amount of hatred I had for you, weed would surely make see you as my friend.. This reason is why Blackface matter tire me

Your cousin takes more than weed. Weed can’t make you to be aggressive, weed calm ones nerves. No one has ever gone mad through weed.

Try and find out what he’s taking aside weed.

There's this cousin brother of mine who has been into this weed stuff of a thing for over two years now.
he's a very calm and responsible boy that he managed to keep it secret for years now.

During this ASSU strike combined with holiday he seemed to go into the act full time that made me suspect him(my family detest smoking and drug abuse of all kind) so he still managed to keep it hidden.
fast forward to Sunday this week morning.
They called my dad who's highly respected in the family informing him about how my cousin was misbehaving insulting everyone in the family.
we went there together with my DAD and we were more than surprised about the information we Got.
this guy was talking to everybody anyhow, he even beat a small boy of about 12years and was claiming the boy has witch and he wants to show the boy that he's stronger than him. this my cousin bro is about 22years of age.
he was even talking to my dad without respect warning his uncles and elder brothers that he would deal with all of them.
that Sunday we took him to our home since his claims that day was that his brothers were the ones looking for his trouble.
he went in took his bath and eat.
after eating, we let him sleep for sometime with high hopes that he would cool off.
he did eventually cool off after waking up but was over reactive to things. he was full of confidence that we all just had to let him be and comply with him at that moment.

That night we slept in our house in my room together. at around 12am he woke me and told me(authoritatively) to relocate to the other room that he wants to pray.
I heeded to him not to provoke him after some few hours he called me again with high command ordering me to come which I did, he said I should stand still where I am and that I should tell him what time it was. I was trying to approximate the time and tell him he said that I should go back and check my phone which I did considering his situation.
he then said I should set alarm at 5:20 am so he can wake to subhi prayee(morning prayer), which I did.
after about every 30min till daybreak, he just walks in to my room to check time till that 5:20 when my alarm rang which he then woke the whole family for prayer.
he was walking to the mosque that morning with hands widely opened and full of confidence.
Monday morning we both were suppose to return back to school on Sunday evening but had to postpone till Monday cos of the situation.
he left my house as early as 8am claiming he has lecture by 10am that morning.
we both reside in different campus so I can't really tell much about his school life though.
this morning I was called that he refused going to school and that he was misbehaving again even adding me to his list of beefs. he claims no one can force or stop him and he was arrogant to the whole people in the community.
I called and asked if he smoked again and they claimed he didn't smoke since that Sunday morning and they've been watching him since then.
we later did some findings and found out that he bought this weed from a different supplier.
the boy who introduced him to this supplier is my neighbour who is a well known drug and weed abuser.
the guy has been in multiple situation fighting with his parents whenever he smokes.

pls and pls nairalanders, I would like you guys to proffer solution as we wouldn't like to take him to psychiatric except the needs be.

Pls help push to front page let the world see the negative effect of this drug and also help me with solution..
anya oga u sure say no b aljanu de worry d guy?

I have never heard of Fela attacking anyone, it was all about love and respect for humanity

I have never heard of Bob Marley attacking anyone, it was all about one love at all times

I have never heard of Sade Adu attacking anyone, it's all about cherishing the day and embracing love all the time

I have never heard of Jagaban attacking anyone, it's all about making money, empowering people and making big things happen all day

Baba, I truly believe that if your brother isn't taking other hardcore drugs, he may be having some kind of mental issues, but weed got nothing to do with it.

Good luck!

He has an addiction. His addiction is strong and fully blown. He is in the denial stage. The cravings when his next fix is far away or unavailable; denial and protection of his habits; the realisation the his weed is running out and the urge to smoke are probably making him irritable.

He is not aggressive, he is irritable. Responding aggressively to little things that shouldn't make him aggressive.

this comment is gold, I wish I was here earlier, people need to educate themselves about weed.. Its not harmful to the brain so long as you're not taking it a very young age or abusing it all the time.. It just helps one relax and stay chill, alcohol is even more dangerous than this stuff and still it's illegal

Please can you speak more on this. I don't like how people on here keep making it seem like weed is 100% harmless. I have had a bad experience with it, and I was lucky, but I know a lot of people that were not as lucky. I need experts on this matter to please speak on it. Can weed (smoking or eating it) run someone mad? Please, I need answers.
shush maybe because it was your first time, and if you did not feel a sense of happiness or laughter at anything funny then I'm sorry it's not weed you took, or maybe someone laced it for you with something more stronger that is not weed

This isn't weed. This is a full blown demonic possession.

Different demons possess different characteristics. They find a host and manipulate the host to do their will.
Your cousin is host to a powerful demon possibly Sonneillon.

I suggest you find an exorcist ASAP.
op, this is the problem with your cousine here , forget weed or something , its actually a demonic possession.

Please ..because u use weed responsively or it doesn't really have effect in you negatively doesn't mean you should say weed doesn't affect others negatively.....u are not even speaking educatively or statistically...ur statement is reeked with fallacy and based on personal usage or few others who u have seen used it .
Science have submitted academic research evidence over and over that people with genetic predisposition to mental illness can be triggered by weed....u don't know other peoples medical history....( Carey &Benedict 2019 ISSN 0362-4331) that's a reference incase u care to see
I have a friend that can dink 30bottles of alcohol his body doesn't feel it...he even likes to say guiness is good for the blood and helps him sleeps well...It will be foolish to join him if u were born by a diabetic father or a mother with heart problems....cos there's a chance for development of myocardial infarction.....

@ OP

Like most people have alluded to, it is likely your brother is on the verge of developing a mental illness. Though studies claim that there is no conclusive evidence of weed being the final causality of mental illness it is without doubt a catalyst in some sort of way. Some people here are trying to justify their habits or simply wish to be ignorant of the possibilities of jump starting something they may be predisposed to


When you tackle the symptoms your relative is exhibiting in its early stages, the probability for a better outcome is much higher for the patient over the long term.

It is essential you take this person to the psychiatric hospital so he is put in a stable and controlled environment where doctors can determine if these are just temporary psychotic incidents or if there is some permanent damage that is occurring.

Your story is not the first nor will it be the last concerning weed addicts or smokers becoming mentally ill. I suspect weed reduces the threshold for the onset of someone who is already predisposed to the illness genetically.


Take your relative to the hospital.

Shikena!
