You have all the risks of smoking tobacco (cancer) plus the mental health risks, so it is worse.

From what I've read, the risks don't decrease all that much by making it medicinal, and it certainly wouldn't by merely legalising - because legalising it, and selling it for medical purposes involve two very different products (one cheap, one expensive).

In all honestly, I think, given the number of us here with MH issues, cannabis is probably one of the worst drugs to use - given most of the other non-prescribed drugs have merely/mainly only physical health impacts.

	It doesn't matter where you come from; it matters where you go. No-one gets remembered for the things they didn't do. We won't all be here this time next year, so while you can take a picture of us. We're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.
