Why are marijuana users stereotypically portrayed as sluggish people with the munchies?

Asked by deeder671

Answer (1)

Marijuana users are often stereotypically seen as sluggish due to the effects of THC, which promotes relaxation and increases appetite, also known as the 'munchies.' These perceptions are reinforced by media portrayals, although not all users experience these effects identically. Understanding the physiological impact of cannabis can help clarify these stereotypes. ;
