Most of the people likely just like marijuana, which is fine. But where it becomes dangerous is when you pretend you “need it” to support some kind of permanent condition. It’s a perfect recipe for addiction and choosing substance abuse over other things in life (family, career, friends, etc).

I would be equally horrified if someone told me they were drinking vodka daily but “just for their anxiety”, or having four glasses of wine a night to “treat their insomnia”.
