Effects of Marijuana Knowing What You Are Up Against Short-term effects of marijuana include problems with memory and learning, distorted perception (sights, sounds, time, touch), trouble with thinking and problem solving, loss of motor coordination, increased heart rate and anxiety. These effects are even greater when other drugs are taken mixed with weed. Marijuana can increase risk of chronic cough, bronchitis and schizophrenia in vulnerable individuals . It also may increase risk of anxiety, depression and a series of attitude and personality changes. These changes can also include poor performance in school, eating and sleeping problems. Marijuana, just like any other drug, can lead to addiction. It affects the brain’s reward system in the same way as all other drugs of addiction — and the likelihood of addiction increases considerably for those who start young.
