Imagine you have a glass of water. It’s half full. You pour half a glass worth in and now it’s full. You’re happy you have a nice full glass of water!
Someone else has a glass of water… but its 2/3rds full. They pour the same amount as you into their glass. It spills all over! They’re annoyed now cause they’re wet.
Weed (and most other drugs) don’t create new neurons or anything like that. Rather they bind to receptors in your brain and change and trigger natural processes in an unnatural way.
