Why do you smoke/ingest and what's your experience?

Pros for me are it helps me destress and just truly enjoy the present moment. I have anxiety and adhd so it feels like it actually quiets my overactive mind to a normal state Cons are that itā€™s not healthy for me to rely on to relax because itā€™s a quick fix and thereā€™s healthier coping mechanisms that I abandon when becoming too reliant on it. During the phases of life where I smoked or took an edible on a daily or even every other day type of basis I wasnā€™t getting as much done in life lol also sometimes it would actually cause me more anxiety and paranoia weirdly.. maybe it was the type of weed I donā€™t know but for me I prefer edibles because thereā€™s no smell and Iā€™m a runner so I need my lungs šŸ˜‚ and Iā€™ve found itā€™s best for my mental health to partake occasionally but not habitually (although Iā€™m pregnant rn so I donā€™t at all)
