I've never tried it, and don't particularly want to. I don't really have a problem with others using it, but I don't think it would be wise in my own case. I had the opportunity a few yrs back where one of my good friends tried it out and tried to convince me to join along, but I just firmly said no.
In college I learned quickly (erm, by quickly, I mean within about 2 yrs ;-) that alcohol was a good 'escape' valve for me, and it eased a lot of my social anxiety...so I think I have the addictive thing in me, which is why I really go into self-control/policing mode when it comes to all of that stuff and ME. Basically I think I could easily become 'addicted' to something like marijuana...I could see myself using it as a crutch to make me happy/mellowed out/dreamlike, when I'd like to be able to reach those emotional places without having to rely on a substance.
