Cannabis

Cannabis, is an psychoactive Entheogen. Its is different to a Psychedelics as it tends not to induce Pivotal Mental States.

Mush like the myths surrounding psychedelics a similar mythos surrounds Cannabis. Its widely thought (See video above) that cannabis use may be linked with anhedonia and apathy. However, a recent study has found that cannabis use at a frequency of three to four days per week is not associated with apathy, effort-based decision-making for reward, reward wanting, or reward liking in adults or adolescents. Cannabis users had lower anhedonia than controls, albeit at a small effect size. These findings are not consistent with the hypothesis that non-acute cannabis use is associated with amotivation.
