Bot GPT 3.5 There is limited research on the impacts of cannabis use specifically by males aged 10-20 in the Humilaveka Goroka District. However, more broadly, cannabis use among adolescents and young adults has been associated with a range of physical, mental, and social impacts.
Physically, cannabis use can have negative effects on the developing brain, potentially leading to cognitive impairments, memory deficits, and decreased academic performance. It can also impact lung health and increase the risk of respiratory issues.
Mentally, cannabis use has been linked to an increased risk of mental health problems such as anxiety, depression, psychosis, and schizophrenia. It can also exacerbate existing mental health conditions or lead to the development of new ones.
Socially, cannabis use can impact relationships with family, friends, and peers. It can also lead to legal issues and involvement in risky behaviors such as driving under the influence.
It is important to note that the impacts of cannabis use can vary depending on individual factors such as frequency and duration of use, dosage, potency of the cannabis, and co-occurring mental health conditions. Further research specific to the population of interest in the Humilaveka Goroka District would be needed to fully understand the potential impacts of cannabis use in this group.
