"Moderation in all things, including moderation"

Secret is, you can't let yourself become addicted. Cannabis is not addictive physically, but mentally, one could become dependent on it. Where there's a will, there's a way, and I agree with LIP when he says a lot of the problems chronic smokers have stem from their tempraments, rather than the weed itself.

However, that's not to say one can blithely go through one's entire life stoned.

My personal feeling is that one should use weed like one would use alcohol: for unwinding after a hard day of work, for partying with friends, and for medicine.

This means a responsible user is sober: at work, at school, when supervising children, when operating heavy machinery, when doing a risky physical activity.

Just my opinion, but I agree with LIP for the most part.
