I am 23 years old, never smoked weed before. Although, I know a few people that do. My sister constantly does it, my parents are against it. And I just see it as something I don't necessarily need. I'm not a smoker, I've probably smoked a cig once in a few blue moons for the sake of saying I've smoked.

I am an overall nervous person. This runs in my blood, my mother and sister are nervous people too. What use to help me relax was listening to calm mediating music, and meditating. But, due to certain distractions I have in my mind it becomes hard to do so.

I've heard weed helps one relax. I don't know if that a common excuse most people say to defend their use or if a few puffs does give off a sense of relaxation. I don't think one should depend on something to relax, but does it truly help calm nerves? I would must rather try something "natural" than pills. I am not crazy about it, just curious.

What do you think?
