i read the article and here’s my anecdotal experience to back up the conclusions:
i started using cannabis again after a 10 year break. i was a daily user who didn’t start until my 20s so it didn’t impact my brain development that badly.
so firstly i’m neurodivegent and have always had trouble with outward displays of empathy. using cannabis allows me to engage in conversation fluidly and deeply about more emotional topics as well as work to resolve conflicts. it’s socially lubricating but not in a dis inhibiting way.
also as a trans woman that’s not yet on HRT, it allows me to enter a more feminine headspace. in fact it has always done this and was one of the main reasons i was attracted to it despite not completely enjoying the high when i was younger.
i call it “cognitive transitioning”, basically a taste of what’s to come when i get my hormones right with HRT.
