Weed is not going to ruin your life the same way like benzos and alcohol would. If you smoke everyday then you probably aren't very productive, but you are not actively ruining your life.

Weed is dangerous because of how safe it is. It makes you ok with being bored and not progressing/growing as a person. Alcohol addiction will straight up make you homeless.

Someone else said it, but I agree:

if alcohol were discovered today, it would 100% be illegal in no time

If you aren't very productive you haven't found the right strain.. or you're eating edibles.

Ive honestly stopped buying the different strains have different effects talk. No matter what I smoke I get stoned and lazy af. Not that that's bad, it's just what happens.

Same here. Tried indica because it "slows you down" vs sativa, and all the hybrids in between. All are the same affects

I've definitely noticed a slight difference but no strain is going to suddenly make you productive. Maybe you want to be productive but you feel tired and crappy because you're too sober, and getting a fix helps. Doesn't mean the weed is actually helping you it just means you're addicted

Good that you know your self in that case. Not all bodies react the same way. I know folks who can't get high from smoking but do from edibles, and vice versa.

Still get stoned from edibles unless I throw some other stuff in the mix.
