I for one think it is a butter thing then alcohol I see nothing wrong with it



In response to the below comment and also answering the question. It is not surprising that most drug addicts start off with cannabis, but you can hardly come to the conclusion that cannabis is a driving drug to start off on other harder drugs. Cannabis is known in the drug world to be one of the least harmful drugs with less symptoms and drawbacks compared to harder class a drugs. The level at which the drug user wishes to take their experience is totally down to that individuals addictive nature, curiosity and choice. Usually most drug users are addicted to the feeling of being intoxicated, the level that they wish to be intoxicated is totally down to them and their aims and ambitions to try stronger harder drugs.

Just like most people who start drinking, don't start off with Absinthe, they start off with Beer or Wine in most cases I would imagine. Most people who become alcoholics will probably admit to you that their first drinks were Beer or Wine but just like in the case of drugs you couldn't say that beer or wine was their driving force to try out harder spirits.

One problem is that it's illegal... but for many people, that doesn't seem to matter.

However, I worked at a drug rehab hospital for many years, watching hard-core drug addicts go through withdrawal and try to get their lives together. These are people so hooked on hard drugs like crack, etc., that they had turned to prostitution, robbery, etc., to get their drugs. The thing is... without exception, every single one of them I ever asked said that they had STARTED with cannabis, just like you, that they thought they could handle it and never expected to take any worse drugs. But after a while the cannabis didn't provide enough of a fix any more, and they started wanting more. Every one of them.

Just food for thought.

Life and experience



You are harming nobody so I don't think its a bad thing. The only thing I would ask you is is it holding you back from doing other things? Such as hanging out with friends or socialising and meeting people and enjoying that aspect of life?

I smoked weed for 10 years pretty much every day and although it didn't hurt anyone I found I was losing friends and didn't have a girlfriend for a long time because I was always just heading home after work and smoking a few joints by myself.

Not saying you are doing anything wrong but you may be missing out on relationships because you are putting it first.

I think its ok to just have 2 joints a day. but limit it.
I think im actually dependant on it now. i smoke about an eighth a day.
maybe you should not do it on a day to day basis, just skip a day or 2 now and again
dont become dependant, it aint nice and its bloody expensive!



Using cannabis, i feel, is perfectly fine. I use it myself to combat depression and anxiety. A more healthier alternative to smoking it, could be using a vaporizer. Although this is quite expensive, it will reduce risks associated with smoking.



its not bad, but it is illegal and to be fair I doubt youre wanting a possession record.

if you dont actually need it, dont smoke it. 1 u wont become dependant on it and 2 when you do smoke it youll enjoy it more.



It's cool to smoke if it doesn't interfere with your life, but make sure that smoking in your downtime doesn't prevent you from chasing other goals.

Also, maybe don't post it on the internet.



you should go to doctors immediately.



Nope I think its beneficial. Eating it in foods might be a little healthier.



talk to frank



it your choice really, but u are harming yourself just think of it in the longterm
