I used to smoke a lot and flunked out of college. Did weed MAKE me lazy? Well it definitely exacerbated my lazy qualities and made it a hell of a lot easier to forget and not deal with my problems.
Weed is awesome in a ton of ways but it absolutely leads to people being less active and less motivated and I am not a productive person in any way when I smoke.
It wasn't until I decided to quit that I went back to school, finished a 4-year degree and moved on with my life.
The lazy stoner is a stereotype for a reason. The one positive of OP's project is that it should show stoners that it's possible to be active and productive while smoking. But victimizing stoners by acting like he needs to break a stereotype does little to help integrate smoking as a culture in society. It's on the individual to remain productive and responsible.
In other words, I think OP is doing a good thing, but putting a frame around it that drastically changes and diminishes the message it sends. This should be a message to stoners, NOT a message to society.

Based on some of your other responses, it sounds like accidents due to ineptitude happen far too frequently (venting a generator into your oxygen intake, emptying sewage literally on your head, etc.).
Do they happen fairly often and why do you think so? Lack of training?

This is such an important thing that people often don't realize. People see one therapist and didn't gel with them, so they give up on therapy altogether.
Shop around. Find someone you're comfortable with.
