Outside of chronic pain of course.

Beats me. I sure as hell don't, and wouldn't want to. I do use it anywhere from 2-6 nights a week so that pain doesnt keep me awake. I want to keep working, so I stay sober during the day and use it to manage the pain at night - so I can be productive and support myself. The alternative would be to go on disability, which I would prefer not to do.
I dunno where you live, but where I live disability pays you fuck all so the way you use is good in your case, I bet you sleep like a baby after is some. But I personally have known pot heads that smoke so much they dont have food in the house. in truth it is expensive here 10 dollars Canadian a gram.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

I wish that were the case. In reality, on my worst nights it's enough to turn a completely sleepless night into one where I only get a couple of hours of sleep. I prefer to use nothing when I can, but it often is not possible.

I haven't bought it by the gram in decades, but $10 USD/CAN sounds about right. A quarter (7 grams) lasts me about 6-8 weeks and is $60 USD.

The prescription alternatives pretty much all have worse side effects, health risks or addiction potential.

Disability pays a tiny fraction of what I make, and I have dependents to take care of, which I cannot do without working. There are certainly people worse off than I, so as long as I'm able, I'll continue to work.
