Basically what it says on the can: why do you use weed? Are you a purely recreational user? Do you use for medical purposes, with or without a prescription? Do you use for a mental health condition? We're all probably some blend of these. What's your use case?

Personally, I do use cannabis medicinally to help me sleep. Neither weed nor melatonin cuts it alone, but weed and quick dissolve melatonin is just the right thing. I also use for recreational purposes. It's just fun to do things stoned. I also use heavily for religious/spiritual reasons. I'm a Discordian, and keeping a flexible mind full of doubt is important to that. Weed is helpful in resisting the siren call of comforting certainty. As a casual psychedelic, it keeps me thinking in interesting ways.

I give it to my colleagues so I outperform them at work and then I get all the bonuses and promotions. And sometimes I use to sleep after taking actually good drugs.

Idk what you're getting at here, but this is funny because I'm legit a high performing employee at a dispensary where I'm pretty much the only one who is always sober. I almost never have THC by the light of day. Some of my competitors and peers perform on or near my level while medicated or intoxicated, though.
