This feel like non alcoholic beer

It sort of is. But not really. I mean that stuff isn't useless, there are occasions and circumstances for it and its not intended to replace the real stuff.

Don't think of it like weed that doesn't get you high. That's not its point.
Think of it as a painkiller that doesn't have the side effect of dependence from psychotropic effects and natural central downregulation. The fact its a canabinoid is just its mechanism of action.
