To make it clear, I have NEVER tried marijuana. I've never touched an illegal substance, I'm far too scared. A lot of the time when I talk about my anxiety and depression, my friends, even some adults, suggest smoking marijuana.

I've been around friends who smoke it and who have offered it to me. Last time my friends did it, I was really depressed, they said it would help me, but I just walked away from them. We were at a waterfall so I sat on the edge of this big rock and just sat there. They came over to me after a while and were.. not themselves, and it scared me.. I thought they were going to slip off the rock.

Is this even true, does it actually help? They just looked loony. I don't want to hurt my brain, it's already messed up..

Again, I don't plan on doing it. The idea of altering my reality makes me very anxious. But everyone says I should stop being a baby and try it because it's the "only known cure for depression."

I kinda doubt that last part.. but I wanted to see what other people might say.
