Basically, I'm pretty wary of the adverse effects of drugs and becoming dependent on them. I've never done any, including drinking etc. But I'm curious about edibles, since it seems like there's barely any downsides, besides the risk of the edible itself being too potent(?).
Agree with everyone else with respect to starting with some smoking or vaping - when you're an absolute novice, edibles can be really easy to overdo and the high usually lasts longer so if you mess it up it'll be longer until you come down.
That said, I def recommend experimenting with weed — I find it very relaxing, much more pleasurable than drinking, with virtually no adverse effects. It's not physically addictive (though there can be some psychological addiction) and used in moderation can help with a variety of ailments.
