Cannabis
Lifestyle Glossary · Wellbeing
Cannabis is a psychoactive substance that may be used recreationally or medically, depending on local law and personal circumstances. In social or intimate settings, its effects can vary widely: some people feel more relaxed, while others experience anxiety, impaired judgment, or reduced awareness of their own limits.
Because meaningful consent depends on clarity and the ability to make an informed choice, it is wise to agree on boundaries before using any substance. Cannabis should never be used to pressure someone into an activity, to override hesitation, or as a substitute for direct communication. Where sex is involved, it can also affect practical safer sex decisions.
