Why Weed Makes You Laugh

Why Weed Makes You Laugh?

It stands out as one of the rare substances capable of acting as a depressant, stimulant, and hallucinogen – amassing its unique lexicon of effects.

From the munchies to couchlock to cottonmouth, the consumption of cannabis and its interaction with our physiology has evolved into a cultural phenomenon.

Today, almost a quarter of the U.K. and Irish population has partaken in these altered experiences, and amid these anecdotal accounts, one phenomenon seems universal, oh the weed-induced giggles.

Engage in conversation with any cannabis enthusiast, and they’ll attest that cannabis amplifies the hilarity in just about anything.

Yet, what prompts this plant to trigger uncontrollable laughter? To unravel this, we delve into the essence of laughter itself:

Why do we laugh?

Laughter transcends boundaries; it’s a universal language understood across cultures and ages, even by infants who laugh before they speak.

But what evolutionary purpose does this spontaneous reaction serve? From an evolutionary perspective, this laughter likely served as a vital signal of connection crucial for our survival.

To comprehend the roots of laughter, we turn to our evolutionary cousins, the Great Apes. For these intelligent creatures, social bonds are paramount for survival, akin to humans. Their societal structure, akin to ours, relies on cohesive bonds for safety, reproduction, and emotional well-being.

Maintaining such bonds necessitates actions fostering connection, much like grooming among apes. Grooming functions as the social glue binding ape communities, facilitating reconciliation, and bolstering non-kin relationships.

Had we not shed our fur as we evolved, it’s plausible we would have adopted similar bonding rituals. However, as we adapted to warmer climates and lost our furry exterior, we forfeited a core aspect of our social bonding encoded in our DNA.

One plausible theory posited by scientists suggests that laughter supplanted grooming. Laughter, akin to grooming, offers social benefits by activating the endorphin system, fostering a sense of belonging.

This transition in bonding rituals optimized time and intimacy constraints, enhancing survival chances while retaining the social benefits.

Today, laughter is intertwined with our identity, serving as a sonic indicator of our social connections. Research reveals our ability to discern friendship levels through laughter alone, distinguishing genuine laughter from forced.

Like the grooming rituals of Great Apes, laughter plays a pivotal role in our lives, fostering and reinforcing bonds, offering insights into our relationships, and triggering feel-good chemicals that alleviate stress and nurture belongingness.

But how does cannabis intercept this innate reflex? Why does it provoke uncontrollable fits of laughter? Science offers several explanations for this phenomenon.

Why does weed make us laugh?

The laughter-inducing effects of cannabis traced back to the intricate workings of the endocannabinoid system. This biological network plays a pivotal role in regulating various bodily functions, including mood.

Cannabis, composed of molecules strikingly akin to those naturally occurring in our bodies, interacts with this system, engendering the myriad effects familiar to users.

In essence, cannabis interacts with the biological apparatus governing our mood. It’s a key reason why millions turn to cannabis to alleviate anxiety and depression, and it’s also a contributing factor to the heightened propensity for laughter when under its influence.

Upon cannabis consumption, akin to laughter, our bodies release endorphins, inducing a state of euphoria. While euphoria alone doesn’t directly induce laughter, it creates an environment conducive to it.

A carefree state of mind predisposes us to laughter, whereas research indicates reduced activity in the brain’s humor center during times of stress.

While further research is warranted, smoking cannabis may potentially heighten activity in these brain regions, fostering euphoria and enhancing our inclination to laugh.

Another factor contributing to cannabis-induced laughter is its reflexive nature. Though laughter is sometimes within our control, it predominantly manifests involuntarily and can be sparked spontaneously.

This explains why laughter ensues even in the absence of discernible stimuli and why it’s contagious.

In altered states, such as those induced by cannabis consumption, our threshold for amusement diminishes, and our propensity to laugh heightens.

Moreover, scientific findings suggest that laughter is 30 times more likely in group settings. Therefore, if you frequently indulge with friends, you’re primed for joviality.

Does cannabis genuinely make everything funnier?

Not necessarily; rather, it creates conditions conducive to lowering our laughter threshold, rendering typically mundane situations uproarious. So, indulge in laughter; science affirms its benefits!
