This might be unpopular here, but there are sometimes problems for people who use marijuana. Sometimes naming something can help us be aware of issues we didn't realize were in place.

To have cannabis use disorder, or CUD, a person must have two or more of such symptoms as craving weed, becoming tolerant, using more than intended, using marijuana even though it causes problems in life, using it in high-risk situations, experiencing withdrawal and being unable to quit, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

I'm pro cannabis. But the myth that nobody on cannabis has problems with their use is stupid.

That message belongs here, where people who use visit, so someone who wonders why they don't feel as great as you can see they're not alone.
