If its used as medicine it doesn't seem it would be a problem. If its used as a way of escape it may be idol worship. God is a jealous God and would like us come to Him for our comfort. They call it dope for a reason, it puts the user in a fog, being an ex user i know what i'm talking about. my brain gets clearer and clearer, as i choose not to use. The Word says be sober and vigilant and the way the world is today being in a fog or getting glassy blood shot eyes from booze is not a good choice. i'm not telling people not to drink or smoke weed i'm just sharing what has been better for me. i smoked weed for a long time would start at 5:30 6:00 in morning and would keep smoking until bed time. The Lord showed me a better way and its been a blessing.

Anything that is not by the faith that comes from hearing God is sin. All sin is forgivable other than attributing the work of God to our own selves (blasphemy) .

Let this be your guide, I can not say what it means in your situation. Sure I could get a holier then you, but really we are all sinners and we need to be guided by His word and His Spirit, not by others opinion of what the word means in their situation.
Romans 6:15-19 "What then? Are we to sin because we are not under law but under grace? By no means!16 Do you not know that if you present yourselves to anyone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness?17 But thanks be to God, that you who were once slaves of sin have become obedient from the heart to the standard of teaching to which you were committed,18 and, having been set free from sin, have become slaves of righteousness.19 I am speaking in human terms, because of your natural limitations. For just as you once presented your members as slaves to impurity and to lawlessness leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves to righteousness leading to sanctification.
