Cannabis has [[effects of cannabis|various mental and physical effects]], which include [[euphoria]], [[altered states of mind]] and [[Cannabis and time perception|sense of time]], difficulty concentrating, [[Cannabis and memory|impaired short-term memory]], impaired [[motor skill|body movement]] (balance and fine psychomotor control), relaxation, and an increase in [[appetite]]. Onset of effects is felt within minutes when smoked, but may take up to 90 minutes when eaten (as orally consumed drugs must be digested and absorbed). The effects last for two to six hours, depending on the amount used. At high doses, mental effects can include [[anxiety]], delusions (including [[ideas of reference]]), [[hallucination]]s, [[panic attack|panic]], [[paranoia]], and [[Cannabis and psychosis|psychosis]]. There is a strong relation between cannabis use and the risk of psychosis, though the direction of [[causality]] is debated. Physical effects include increased heart rate, difficulty breathing, nausea, and behavioral problems in children whose mothers used cannabis during pregnancy; short-term side effects may also include [[xerostomia|dry mouth]] and red eyes. [[Long-term effects of cannabis|Long-term adverse effects]] may include addiction, decreased [[neurocognition|mental ability]] in those who started regular use as adolescents, chronic coughing, susceptibility to [[Respiratory tract infection|respiratory infections]], and [[cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome]].
