It is a personal choice, so no it is not bad to not do a thing that is illegal. Never let others goad you into doing something that makes you uncomfortable or that violates what you believe is right.

"Weed," the street name of cannabis (specifically marijuana) is illegal to possess or use in all fifty states of the US under federal law. Some states have enacted legislation to make it possible for the medical use of marijuana, but the federal government continues to watch distribution and growing very closely.

The FDA has determined that by products of smoking marijuana can be very dangerous to people; these chemicals are as dangerous and in some cases more so than smoking tobacco.

Buying it illegally can also be dangerous. Illegal distributors have been known to spike or dust marijuana with other chemicals (PCP, acid, K2, Spice, etc.)

There is anecdotal evidence to support the effectiveness of marijuana in treatment of depression, OCD, and other conditions. It has also been used to treat pain and nausea such as that experienced by sufferers of migraine headaches and cancer treatment patients.

If medical marijuana is legal where you live and you want to use it as a treatment option, research your state's laws and consult your doctor.
