I remember news reports that MJ was too strong fifty years ago. I have never tried it. Something about being in a situation where I no longer control may actions might be a reason.
Good point you don’t need a crutch to deal with the day or life.
Bonus round: you don’t have to smell cat urine to let people
know your around.
Alcohol makes me feel exactly as you describe, being unable to control my actions properly due to that intoxicant. We see the deadly results of Alcohol consumption and losing control almost every day.
My choice of a pleasurable, relaxing intoxicant is not Alcohol.
