I don't really find being stoned all that appealing, though I get baked 3-4x a week usually.. I guess I do enjoy the social-anxiety relief though. While sober, half the time I can't even have a conversation with a stranger because my entire being is consumed by anxiety. While stoned I can talk to anybody and my sense of humor is increased 10x (probably because my anxiety is gone). But I try not to use weed (or any drug) for it's anxiety relief. I can't just be stoned every time I need to talk to someone the rest of my life. The only way to cure my anxiety is through social exposure while sober.
That said, I like going out with friends and doing regular activities while stoned because it makes everything more fun. Eventually though, we get to the point where we find ourselves saying "Man, nobody has any weed, what the fuck are we gonna do today?" And that's when you realize using drugs every day aint a great idea.
On top of that, marijuana really does have a dark side. I've had toooooo many experiences where I smoke 3 joints worth of weed with a few friends, meet up with other friends, smoke another 2 joints worth, then go back to some other dude's house and smoke a few bowls. Weed is more powerful for me than for most, so I get way too high and end up retreating into this anti-social super anxiety-sticken shell where I don't say a word to anybody, which kills my night (and usually the next few days too).
