Abusing any substance can have serious physical and/or mental effects, too much alcohol in-particular is more damaging than cannabis, like wise too much junk food, too much sugar, aspirin, panadol and other pain killers and so on.
None of the above is harmful if responsibly in moderation, of course one needs to be mindful of any negative side effects

According to DEA Chief Administrative Law Judge, Francis Young, "cannabis is one of the safest therapeutically active substances known to man".[18] Being under the effects of cannabis is usually referred to as being "high".[19] Cannabis consumption has both psychoactive and physiological effects.[20] The "high" experience can vary widely, based (among other things) on the user's prior experience with cannabis, and the type of cannabis consumed.[21]: p647 When smoking cannabis, a euphoriant effect can occur within minutes of smoking.[22]: p104 Aside from a subjective change in perception and mood, the most common short-term physical and neurological effects include increased heart rate, increased appetite, impairment of short-term and working memory, and impairment of psychomotor coordination.[23][24]
Additional desired effects from consuming cannabis include relaxation, a general alteration of conscious perception, increased awareness of sensation, increased libido[25] and distortions in the perception of time and space. At higher doses, effects can include altered body image, auditory and/or visual illusions, pseudohallucinations and ataxia from selective impairment of polysynapticreflexes.[citation needed] In some cases, cannabis can lead to dissociative states such as depersonalization[26][27] and derealization.[28]
