I do occasionally, not daily. The thing about "side-effects" is that one usually only labels the negative effects as side effects. In reality, everything any drug does could be considered a side effect.
All drugs are substances that when introduced into the body cause it to act in a way that it wouldn't otherwise act. The only difference between side effects and beneficial properties is whether or not they were your intended reaction, for the most part.
Marijuana, like almost any drug has it's ups and downs (though I will say that it has far fewer downs than most drugs, alcohol included.) It can be very successful in treating pain and loss of appetite in chronically ill patients where all other drugs have failed. It can also cause slight memory loss, lack of concentration, and lethargy.
You can't classify all of it's effects as bad or good, but you can weigh the good against the bad. When you do that, if used medically or in a responsible recreational manner, it's not a bad drug.

I do occasionally, because I think it is good. It reminds me to drink lots of water and helps me sleep deeper so I would have to say it's all positive.

every one who wants an answer to this question come to abbotsford, BC canada and i'll introduce you to my dad.
he has officially smoked himself retarded and he doesn't even smoke that much, he's just been doing it long enough.
he's the reason i hate potheads and don't smoke pot anymore myself

I smoke daily and I like the effects, I don't like the side effects so much. My memory is terrible, I find it very hard to wake up and I'm not as sharp as when I'm not smoking.
On the upside I am a glaucoma sufferer so the side effects of the weed (other than cancer in the long term) aren't nearly as bad as the eye drops I use. Namely discolouration of the iris, lengthening of the eye lashes and in-growing eye lashes (especially bad as I suffer in one eye, making the differences even starker). I'd pick the weed's side effects anyday!

It's not good for you. Brain damage caused by use of the drug is the same as that of schizophrenics. Schizophrenia is one of the most unfun mental diseases there is.

i usually do, not everyday but at lease 3-4 times a week and on the weekends its usually everyday and nite. i do it sometimes before school. i actually concentrate better when i do, the only problem with me and pot, is the munchies part, i need to start trying to at least not eat as much. because by the time im 30 im going to huge. thats the only part i dont like. when me and my friends smoke we eat everything in site, we will go out to eat or to mcdonalds or wendys. we went to wendys one time and each got 2 chicken sandwiches large fry and a large drink and then we got hot fudge sundaes from mcdonalds. other than that i love weed, im glad its here, thank god for daa mur jane, and it should be legalized.

I have smoked for nearly 4 years now. Before I began smoking, I was the type of person who looked down on it soooo much! (Just like a lot of people still do) and until I had smoked, I thought, one puff you die. Boy, was I wrong. I won't say marijuana is for everyone, just as alcohol isn't tolerated well by everyone, but there are quite a few effects of the drug.
The good:
*euphoric moods
*relaxes the muscles and the mind
*Laughing is usually a side effect
*Alter sense of time
*promote sleep
*helps cancer patients in eating food when they seem nauseous
*it is an expectorant
*can help with asthmatics (crazy huh)
the bad
*increased heart rate
*chance of mild panic attacks
*sometimes paranoia
* shouldn't be driving or operating heavy machinery
Overall, it does not have too many downsides, but its certainly not for kids, or teenagers, and should always be used responsibly

No weed for me so I couldn't tell you about side effects.
by Firebrand on February 2nd, 2007
No I do not smoke marijuana
I am told that the side effects in some medical conditions are useful and helpful.
I can only say that the only experience I have seen of the side effects is a state of torpia.
If that helps the sick I do not know
by Nickr893 on December 20th, 2006

No, but I don't mind others who do as long as they don't bother anyone. To each his own.

by EcoTechGeek - 5-MeO-DMT on October 3rd, 2008
I only smoke on days that end in Y. I am a very successful business and family man. I have a 9-5 professional job and you would never know that I smoked by looking at me. I did start very late in life (late 30's) but I will smoke it as often as I can for the rest of my life. It makes me the person I want to be.
by Sebb4 on April 17th, 2008
Ive been smoking 3-4 times a week for about a year now and i just turned 16. It really helps me relax and i love the feeling, everything is just clearer and better when im baked. Tho i do find i cant concentrate good when i am high and i get very lazy. Also it really helps me sleep, but if i smoke to early in the day ill just be tired for the whole day and it sucks.
by pasdasalt07 on July 24th, 2007

Nope =)
by lianaface on June 18th, 2008
I do! Every time is different. Once I had a clove when I was high and I swear to you I tasted kindergarten.
Yeah, I don't get it either, but it was amazing!
Weed is something I think everyone should try once. I used to be against it, until curiosity got the best of me. Yes, it is bad for you, but aren't most things these days? I think a lot of people completely against haven't ever tried. Don't knock until you try.
by JaySurf on June 18th, 2008
nope...never have and never will either.
by Amorphous Blob on June 17th, 2009
