Totally anecdotal but I personally reallocated spending away from alcohol and nicotine after receiving my medical cannabis prescription and working with my therapists and doctors on monitoring.
My life is so much healthier and better in every possible way and I directly attribute cannabis to being a major part of addressing severe trauma, PTSD, MDD, and anxiety (after 20 years of federal affiliation prevented it).
Also, note that the recreational (and medical) market has enough options of tinctures, oils infusions etc... that it's trivial to avoid combustion smoking.
I am unaware of any long term studies that show medical risks to consuming THC, CBN, CBD in a non-combustion way.
