Answer by Lisa
if you're smoking cigarettes, then your body gets confused and wants more nicotine in its system. it may seem to ease your stress, but it's still doing the body harm. it also makes your nervous system unbalanced since it's not a steady intake.

weed does not apply, it's just illegal and utterly unnecessary.

It doesn't. I have smoked weed for 3 years and am no different then before I smoked. There lying so you don't smoke.

There is growing evidence that people with serious mental illness, including depression and psychosis, are more likely to use cannabis or have used it for long periods of time in the past. Regular use of the drug has appeared to double the risk of developing a psychotic episode or long-term schizophrenia.
Over the past few years, research has strongly suggested that there is a clear link between early cannabis use and later mental health problems in those with a genetic vulnerability - and that there is a particular issue with the use of cannabis by adolescents.

The effects would vary person to person. Nothing is going to effect two people the same.
