>>1656165I haven't tried it nor do I intend to, it just doesn't seem like something I would like since I like to have control over my mental state. My personal bias comes from having an older brother who failed in almost everything he did in life because refused to do anything else but smoke weed with his friends. But that's my own personal bias. My more official opinion of it is that it does/can dampen motivation and lower work ethic, but only if you don't smoke in moderation and/or you avoid smoking before doing something important like work. When it comes to smoking marijuana in moderation or for purely recreational purposes, while I wouldn't try it myself, I don't see any particular reason it would be all that bad; since an individual should be responsible for what they do or do not allow into their bloodstream/lungs and not the government.
