37. Yes it would have. I smoke almost daily, and probably always will.

It’s my anti-depressant. As a teenager they put me on all kinds of pills for my “depression”. They tried paxil, zoloft, and then when I almost lost it on the Zoloft they tried to make me take Prozac.. I went completely substance free until I was 21, when I smoked my first jay.

It also has powerful anit-nausea and pain relieving properties, as well as helping to keep an appetite, specifically in Cancer patients on Chemo (effects I’ve seen first hand). It also acts as an expectorant and will open the bronchial passageways, almost instantly, in the case of an asthma attack.

Think of how many great musicians and artists and writers have been high on the pot as well.

One of my best friends went over this very subject in her college psychology class, and they calculated to overdose on the mary jane, you would literally have to smoke 300 joints, all at once, in under 30 seconds.

When's the last time someone OD'd or killed someone cuz they had the Refer madness? There’s even evidence to suggest that as an expectorant, it helps to keep the lungs free of other alien tissue, one of the leading causes of lung cancer in cigarette smokers.

Not to mention you get to skip the awful sulphate rich fertilizers that make cigarettes radioactive.

Edited for clarity. :smoke:
