you have to remember that what I'm saying is the small benefits of recreational use more or less cancel out its small risks ( vi cavers a ). While cannabis provides relaxation it can also set of those with a predisposition for schizophrenia. It also has a 6-7 percent chance of dependency in moderate to heavy users who use it as a self medication tool for what would normally be mild to sever depression. Regardless of the fact I smoke it I'm not going to fall into a confirmation bias. recreational use at this point with currently livable data catches a net zero overall if you want to get nit picky. Its medical uses should be given more consideration and its recreational use should simply be legalized because it makes no sense to consider a non lethal ( technically non-addictive substance ) a scheduled one drug.
