And marijuana is NOT a narcotic.
The term narcotic originally referred medically to any psychoactive compound with sleep-inducing properties, and euphoric properties as well. In the United States, it has since become associated with opiates and opioids, commonly morphine and heroin, as well as derivatives of many of the compounds found within raw opium latex.
But sometimes it has a narcotic like affect on some people.
I no longer support the usage of pot as I once did. From what I have read, pot is much different now than it was back when I imbibed. The THC content has increased significantly.
