It's a good relaxant and can even be somewhat therapeutic in moderation.
Without moderation (i.e. smoking more than 2-3 times a week) you start falling into the "DUDE WEED LMAO" rabbithole. After about 3-5 years of regular smoking like this you'll rewire the chemistry of your brain and at that point you've really dun goofed. Extreme anxiety and paranoia follow, and in more extreme cases it can even cause mental illness further down the line. I've seen it happen to a lot of my mates from highschool, really made me think about drug use and how a drug that seems "harmless" to a lot of people can actually do some long term damage.
Basically don't become a stoner retard and it's fine. 6/10, just do LSD a couple times and never touch drugs again.
