For one thing when its bad for you its enjoyable most of the time. You only live once so why not to the fullest. Its like sky diving, or swimming with sharks. There is a risk in it, and a possibility of serious injury or death. If we stayed away from everything that could cause harm, we would be a very boring group of individuals. Anything in large amounts will kill you, but when handled in small doses it can be perfectly safe. (this obviously doesn’t apply to everything in life. Theres just some things you should never do. Ex.
: Lighting your self on fire.)
There are the acceptions for people who have addictive additudes, or addictive minds. People in that catagory have a harder time taking things in small doses. And that can be with anything from drinking coffee to doing coke. The better it makes them feel the harder it is to control their addictive mind. This is why Alcoholism can be so hard to handle. It is a disease they have addictive personalities, its harder for them to over come theirselves and addiction then it is for others.
As for me I started smoking weed when I was 14, I do not believe in the “theory” that weed is bad for you. I also do not believe it is addictive. Why? Because I can stop when ever I want to it doesn’t effect me. I stopped for two years just out of choice. And now I smoke again out of choice. The only reason I stopped was because mainly of the fear being caught, and also I associated it with bad memories. But now I smoke again not because I was addicted and was craving it but just because I enjoy it. Like some people enjoy soda or playing video games. I also used to smoke cigarettes I recently stopped,and it does not bother me.
I also apologize for the LONG post.
