Stimulants like methamphetamine, co***ne, and misused prescription ADHD medications directly affect the brain and nervous system.

What many people don’t realize:
• Stimulants raise heart rate, blood pressure, and body temperature
• Repeated use can lead to dependence and long-term brain changes
• Misusing prescription stimulants carries the same risks as illegal stimulants
• Higher potency and unknown ingredients increase overdose risk

Using someone else’s prescription or taking more than prescribed is not safe — even if the medication seems familiar.

You don’t have to handle it alone.

Ma*****na today is far more potent than it was decades ago.

📊 Then vs. now
• 1970s average THC: ~2–4%
• Today’s ma*****na products: 15–25%+ THC
• Concentrates (dabs, vapes, wax): 60–90% THC

Higher THC means:
⚠️ Greater risk of addiction
⚠️ Increased anxiety, paranoia, and psychosis
⚠️ Impaired memory, learning, and reaction time
⚠️ Higher risk for teens and young adults whose brains are still developing

Calling it “natural” doesn’t make it harmless — especially when the product has been engineered to be stronger than ever before.
