Weed is personality warping too. Granted it’s better than alcohol and won’t make you violent, but it can sap your energy, motivation, cause memory issues, and even alter/damage brain chemistry especially in younger people whose brains are not done developing.
Well sure, lots of things are potentially harmful, but I’d be hard pressed to call cannabis a hard drug when it’s probably more harmful to drink a large soda. I’ve got a history of addiction, but weed has never been something I feel compelled to use regularly. I can go months without even thinking about it.
I am addicted to soda. tried to quit on many occasions. sorta have but stress tends to drive me back. literally had to go through headache weekends when I do cold turkey. It has physical withdrawal symptoms.
Weed can certainly be addictive or cause dependency. That is a fact. I do not think painting weed as something innocent is helpful because people think it’s a “safe” choice. It’s simply harmful in different ways. It’s better than a myriad of other drugs, but we should not lose sight of its drawbacks. FWIW I feel compelled to smoke daily.

Coffee, on the other hand…

Ok, but I’m talking about hard drugs here, such as heroin and alcohol
