I steered clear despite ubiquitous access from mid-childhood through college years: there was more weed at my high school than cigs and beer combined, and my neighbors were hippie nudists who were into hydroponics.
I tried pot a few times but the sluggishness and dissociative effects (Delta-8 & 9 THC) were too much. Smoking a joint or hitting a bog, and inhaling microfines without even the filter of a cigarette, seems inherently unsafe. In college, there were some students who were basically addicted to weed because their intake was extreme and they were constantly jonesing whenever the (student) dealers in the dorms went home for vacation. With life experience, you can pick up on people who have ruined their brains with certain drugs because they exhibit patterns of ticks and odd behavior.
Lab-grade CBD, delivered sublingually in a tincture of precise dosage, is for me calming without any other effects other than occasional mild tiredness. Topical CBD is an absolute scam because of the low quantities, high prices, and unsuitable delivery formulation. Buying purified CBD, getting a microgram scale out, and mixing in a stable carrier oil is the lowest cost and most effective way to go.
