>The abstract of the review is interesting and honestly reflects my (negative) experience with cannabis.

The abstract doesn’t say anything about recreational cannabis usage.

>lack of energy, disruption of sleep, negative impact of my cognitive abilities, increase in anxiety. I'm glad the study confirms those to be statistically common.

>I was very lucky to have a SO who really disliked me smoking and made me realize that I was just doing it to "not think"

This study about the clinical outcomes of physician-directed cannabis usage for specific conditions doesn’t really get into musing about how weed is just sort of generally bad. The only part of the study that seems to sort of touch on what you’re talking about is the section about Cannabis Use Disorder

At no point in this study does it say that “share a few joints with friends, have fun, laugh a lot” has common negatives and uncommon positives. It is not in the purview of the analysis.

For some patients, sometimes. There is no part of this study that says that “positives are uncommon and negatives are common” to cannabis/cannabinoid use overall as the comment I was responding to said. You would have to only read “these are some negative effects some people have experienced” and not read anything else in the study to conclude “the authors of this study that repeatedly points out the efficacy of Nabiximols are trying to tell you that cannabinoids are Actually Bad And Not Good”
