      I'm sorry but you're wrong. That's like saying no one who drank ever had regrets or fear of getting worse, just because it's legal. That's bs. I never once gave a shit about it being legal or illegal. I don't think this guy does either.

    After my dad died smoking weed was terrible for me. Didn't have one high where I didn't feel incredibly weird or wrong or evil and when it was "good" I was out of my gourds and making an ass of myself. Maybe your life needs to change, and maybe adopting a different lifestyle will be better for you. That's my 2 cents.

      May I be so rude as to ask how he passed away? Sorry if this is too intruding; I understand if you don't want to answer.

        Heart attack but they concluded that there was nothing really to conclude, that is to say I don't truly know how. He just died waiting for a leg operation.

    Pot can be a negative thing. In your case, it seems that it's because everyone around you deems it as a bad thing.

    I get paranoia from smoking weed now =/ used to smoke it every day and it was the best! Now I have to consciously stop myself from becoming a bit of a mess!

    If I think about it, I was always a paranoid person before I started. It just seemed to take a while to affect me in a bad way. Maybe it's a similar thing for you, but with realizing you think it's bad?

    I use to smoke weed alot beafore like everyday, at school in the morning, in the evening anytime for years and i use to love the feeling it gave me and think differently and feel very intelligent .When i start to work and have adult concern i stop beacause i didn't have time to smoke and when i was smoking i felt bad like paranoid and shit so its been 5 years i stop but my boy friend smoke sometimes and friends smoke too .It depends on each person beacause everybody is different . If you dont feel good while smoking weed than you stop smoking it its logic and yes its normal.

    Someone I know described weed making him notice things a lot more in a new light. Little body ailments he wouldn't normally have noticed, or if something was bothering him in his life that he kept trying to suppress he'd get bad effects, and it would make him notice and think about consequences a lot more than he would if he were straight. I can personally see how that might make someone paranoid. However he never described feeling guilty, at least not to me. Of course everyone experiences things differently. It could just be your circumstances especially if it's a big deal (in a negative way) where you live.

    However if you're no longer getting any benefit out of it and it's just making you feel guilty or embarrassed I'd recommend stopping. There's no point in doing something that brings you no joy or benefit.

    This kind of effect from weed is very common. Some people feel edgey, some paranoid, you feeling guilty is pretty similar. And it can come on any time. I know a few guys who were regular stoners for years, but the paranoia got worse. Most people quit at that point but some carry on.

    I think weed is on the whole a pretty safe drug, but for some people it can have bad mental effects. And if you feel paranoid or edgey or guilty, maybe you are one of those people.

    It is perfectly normal to feel guilty. I have been a regular user for almost 4 years now, I myself love it, it's helped me through hard times, it helped me quit harsher drugs (killed a perc addiction I had a couple years ago), and it's made me a better person. Now, you may feel guilty because it is deemed as something bad to those who don't use it or look down on it, you more than likely grew up thinking it was a wrong thing to do, if you do something that is deemed by your family as wrong, it is normal to feel guilt. It hurt my family once they found out, but eventually, after making it clear I wasn't going to give it up, they forgot about it, I'm still looked down upon in my family somewhat. The reason I don't care what opposers of marijuana say, is because I have experienced it, I myself know it's properties, and how it's helped my life. I hope this helped you a bit.

    If it was legal where I live, I'd probably do it.

    I think your feelings of guilt are normal.
