A lot of people are advocating for this for some reason, so what do you think?

    I wanna see what all the fuss is about. Marijuana is nearly impossible to find in my country, only hash that’s mixed with who knows what (the good shit is hard to get unfortunately, it’s pricy).

      It’s a mild high and uplifting. Harder to concentrate. Can help you relax or increase your anxiety, it really depends on you and what you are ingesting (and how comfortable you are with being impaired, which can change over time). It’s much less physically impairing than alcohol. Ingestion method matters a lot, as the method changes how your body handles the different drugs within the plant.

      I started smoking it because it made me tired and helped me sleep when I was anxious. It’s a fun drug to share with friends and people you just met, a form of bonding. If you ever have easy access to it, take this advice. Don’t let it become a habit like you would caffeine or nicotine, it’s less addictive than those but what it prevents you from doing is so much more. If you can, keep it to be something you do with other people to enjoy, and not something you do just because you’re stressed. It’s an awful coping habit.

        Thank you for this detailed description, it’s enlightening and it’s exactly what I was looking for.

        Can help you relax or increase your anxiety, it really depends on you and what you are ingesting (and how comfortable you are with being impaired, which can change over time).

        Haha I have no idea how it would go for me because I can get pretty anxious (especially when loss of control is involved). I’m looking forward more to trying it as a social thing more than trying alone and that’s why I haven’t been looking too hard for it.

        Don’t let it become a habit like you would caffeine or nicotine,

        Funnily enough, I became very reliant on caffeine and it took me multiple times to kick the daily habit of drinking coffee (often more than one cup) despite caffeine not being seen as an addictive substance.

        It’s an awful coping habit.

        I hope it’s not as bad for you anymore and that you’re not reliant on it.

          Caffeine is more addictive than people would expect from how normalized its consumption is. It kind of makes me uncomfortable lol
