  • Facts
  • THC in hashish is absorbed by fatty tissues in various organs of the human body.
  • Numerous studies show that hashish use is associated with reduced educational attainment (e.g., grades and chances of graduating)
  • PCP has been known to alter mood states in an unpredictable fashion, causing some individuals to become detached, and others to become animated.
  • Opium that has been prescribed by a physician for pain relief is often used by the person long after the condition that it was prescribed for has been resolved; many times this is because the individual has inadvertently become medicinally addicted to the drug.
