How Marijuana Is Good And Bad For You?

Marijuana is like a fun snack that can make you feel happy but also sometimes give you a tummy ache.

Bold key terms: When you take marijuana, it’s like eating something sweet and crunchy, it makes your brain feel calm and relaxed. It's like when you're tired after playing outside, and you sit down with a cup of hot chocolate, it helps you chill out.

But just like too much candy can make your tummy upset, too much marijuana can sometimes make you feel sleepy or even confused, like when you've been running around for hours and then suddenly stop, your brain needs a minute to catch up.

Imagine you have a special juice that makes you laugh more and feel happier. That's what marijuana is like, it gives your brain a little boost. But if you drink too much of this special juice, you might feel sleepy or wobbly, just like after drinking a lot of soda.

Sometimes people use marijuana to help them sleep better or feel less worried. But if they use it too often, it can be like eating cookies every night, it feels good now, but maybe not so good later.
