			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The stories that surround Michael Jackson&#8217;s life have gained much international attention for the last month. Never would one imagine that he would have stolen the hearts of thousands with his music, charm and talent, and would exit this life taking with him the tear drops of millions of people. On June 25, 2009 it was not just Michael Jackson that died, but many people died internally as they saw their music idol laid to rest.</p>
<p>Many criticisms from Anti-Michael activists have made it their obligation to defame, slander and water the image of the King of Pop to another drug addict that went above the law with his money and power. In some popular forums, thousands dish out their hate in three scathing words-&#8217;So Long Pedophile&#8217;.</p>
<p>It must be pointed out that the intention of this article is not to condone in anyway the questionable conduct of Mr. Jackson, but to point out one thing that was overlooked throughout these years prior to his comeback for an international tour, and that is, his heart.</p>
<p><span id="more-735"></span>When asked in an interview with a British journalist who he was, Michael responded that he was Peter Pan. This response caused great alarm worldwide but only a close introspection of his statement would reveal the character of an individual that wanted to see life through the eyes of a child, with no cares, no threats from scrupulous individuals and no hate.</p>
<p>It was obvious that he did not achieve this goal, as his constant use of drugs debilitated his heath and image to many of his fans. When the final day of his life arrived, reports say that the cause of death was a heart attack, but the fact is that with all that he underwent in his life he was already dead internally.</p>
<p>People who turn to drugs are looking for a solution to rekindle the drive they once had for life. With the constant pressures from outsiders and self, they try to find the strength by numbing the pain they feel when they are criticized, anxious and depressed. Only one who has trod the journey that a drug addict has went through would fully understand what they feel when they are tempted to use drugs. While many would happily get on there high horses and swear on their mother&#8217;s life that they would never use drugs, these same individuals react differently under pressure and stress. People are the product of their environment and while some manage to rise above it, others are frozen in regrets, sadness and defeat.</p>
<p>It was not just drugs that killed Michael Jackson, but every single individual that hurled their criticisms and pointed their fingers at him in his moment of defeat are responsible to pushing him to his grave. Like the alumni that are under our care at Mountainside Treatment Center, many have been pushed into drugs by the lack of love and compassion to help a weak soul.</p>
<p>If anyone or anything is going to be condemned for his death, let us all point a finger at ourselves, for in some small way many pushed him to use drugs. With just a &#8216;grain of salt&#8217; of mercy many helped kill Michael Jackson, and not just him but hundreds of stars that we assume are super men and women.</p>
<p>If you are looking for a drug rehab that cares then come to Mountainside Treatment Center to have a breakthrough in drug treatment.You are welcome to also call at 1-800-762-5433 for more information.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Firstly, I will openly admit that the toxicity levels of weed are extremely low, and this is probably why no-one has actually died directly from its medical or recreational use. However, there are certain dangers of marijuana addiction, and it is these that I wish to discuss in today&#8217;s article.</p>
<p>Many people choose to smoke weed, and so you should be aware that smoking of any kind is unhealthy. In fact, smoking cannabis is estimated to be up to 4 times more harmful than tobacco smoke. If you add to this that most weed users tend to inhale and hold in the smoke for longer, the build up of tar in the lungs is far greater than produced by cigarettes.</p>
<p>If you choose to combine tobacco and marijuana, then this is obviously much worse. Heavy smokers who mix cannabis and tobacco are dramatically increasing their risk of lung disease, and there have been numerous scientific studies that agree that mixing these two substances causes the highest risk of <a href="http://www.alanahu.org/" target="_blank">cancer</a>.<span id="more-1247"></span></p>
<p>There are, of course, numerous other lung-related problems that can be caused by smoking marijuana. These may include chronic coughing, an increased build up of phlegm, and various lung infections and chest illnesses. Any of these respiratory issues can cause severe problems in your everyday life.</p>
<p>The dangers of marijuana addiction are not merely restricted to your lungs, but are also known to cause certain heart problems as well. It is said that simply taking one puff on a weed joint can see your heart rate increase by anywhere from 20% &#8211; 100%, and this increased heart rate may last for up to two to three hours.</p>
<p>As you may expect, this will put extreme pressure on your heart, and can even lead to cardiac arrhythmia (an irregular heart beat). This will, of course, increase the risk of a heart attack. You don&#8217;t have to be old or overweight, and are just as likely to have a heart attack if you are in fairly good shape, but smoke marijuana on a regular basis.</p>
<p>The dangers of marijuana addiction will also have a huge impact on your everyday life. If you are a heavy and regular weed smoker, I would hazard a guess that your cognitive abilities have been impaired. How often have you read an article in a newspaper, and then suddenly a few minutes later you realize that you didn&#8217;t actually understand a word? Perhaps your verbal skills have been affected, or you are struggling with basic arithmetic.</p>
<p>If you need to complete a task that requires great coordination, you might as well forget about it if you have just smoked marijuana. Eventually, through regular use of weed you may become extremely unmotivated, you can&#8217;t be bothered to do anything constructive, and this may have a huge impact on your school or work life. I don&#8217;t need to tell you how disastrous it would be to get thrown out of school or lose your job because of a marijuana addiction.</p>
<p>Another common side-effect of weed is paranoia. This is usually accompanied by feelings of anxiety, panic, and possibly depression. Admittedly, these feelings should soon pass once you have come down from your &#8220;high&#8221;. You should be aware that these feelings of paranoia, anxiety and panic will have a severe effect on your everyday life, and are simply holding you back.</p>
<p>Heavy cannabis or weed use is also associated with schizophrenia, although I should mention that there is no evidence to suggest that this will cause some form of permanent psychotic disorder. However, many weed smokers have suffered from delusions and hallucinations that can be extremely dangerous.</p>
<p>Imagine if you are diagnosed, incorrectly, with a schizophrenic illness simply because you smoke too much weed. We are well aware that cannabis can have certain effects on your mental well-being, but this is definitely not a position you want to find yourself in.</p>
<p>I know better than most that quitting marijuana can be a long, tough journey, but there is always help at hand.</p>
