I started smoking pot when I was 14 right around the same time my GD really started hit hard when I began to realize I didnt really want to be a man... Along with cigs and booze and even LSD... At the time I really enjoyed it and I could handle it just fine, my body was still very androgynous then, my voice hadn't dropped yet ect....
As these teenage years went by and I began to "mature" my nightmare got worse and worse and Id used drugs and booze as a way to try to escape reality I guess.... The thing is pot always seemed to make me see the truths of things no matter how ugly those truths might be.... In time I couldn't handle it anymore because I really was scared of my true feelings on my orientation and gender and I was under so much pressure from everyone forcing "manhood" on me...
It was a bad LSD trip at 19 and a nervous breakdown related to my not wanting to accept myself and my GD, being BI, and all the guilt and shame associated with it that put me in the psych ward for a month and I have no memories at all of that month... I must have been on some powerful psych drugs... When I came out of it all they told me I was maniac depressive... I told everyone to fuck off, flat out rejected all that as nonsense.... Id decided that since I was born male it was time to make a go at it.... I then went on to blow everyone's mind my by excelling in a hyper masculine job and making a lot of $$$ and from all outward appearances becoming very sucessful as a "man"... Of course it was all a fraud but at least financially it served me well...
In that time since that breakdown at 19 I couldn't handle pot at all afterwards... It would bring back to many flashbacks and painful memories and truths to my mind so until recently I just avoided it and got on with the business of pretending to be a "man" and generally being a very miserable dishonest paranoid jerk...
Well after I was well into transition I met a GF that smokes every now and then and I was amazed at how much I enjoy it now
Its because none of the old feelings bother me anymore now that Ive completely accepted myself and let all that old crap go... Now I can fully enjoy a good buzz and all the cool little insights it brings me like Carl Sagan describes in that excellent essay 
Its helped me sort out my demons when they are revisited in my new reality...For me weed helps me see things in new ways and I feel it can amplify my emotions... I recently met a new guy who likes to smoke and lets just say It was an incredible experience to get high and be the real me with a man... (dont want to get booted to adults only lol)
So while Ive moved on from NBE to HRT and the decision to transition Id say Mary Jane has only helped with feminization by helping me be true to myself... Thats just my long winded take on it
Yea I like to get high, always have
