Marijuana has many different purposes, “feeling good” is one of them, but many other use it for spiritual reasons, health reasons, economic motivations, creativity, etc. Cannabis is precisely there for the things he said that it isn’t there for. Cannabis does help some people sleep. Not sleeping is terrible for your health. Cannabis is there to help you develop an appetite…ask any anorexic what not eating does to the mind and body.
