  1. Depends a lot on what you plan to accomplish in your life. Some people i know are completely ok with never accomplishing anything greater than themselves, working the same dead end jobs and getting high after work. I noticed that smoking really affected my motivation and learning capability so i quit.

  2. Can we just step back for a moment and realize how we do not have natural rights over our own bodies ? There is a department out there that decides what you are allowed to consume; if you don’t obey, they lock you in a cage

  3. Funny thing is a sniff of a pepper shaker or the perfume of someone you love ends the paranoia attack instantly! The same brain receptors used by the weed buzz are overwhelmed with the recognizable aroma and it's mind space influence replaces any phobia you might have been brewing. At one point I thought weed to be personally more volatile than alcohol with about a 13th of my indulgences manifesting in full blown panic attacks for years after the first jarring occurrence. As a thirty year daily pot head the consideration of cannabis being anything less than a gift of heaven on earth was utter blasphemy. The normalizer of my high school years, in college it was a backstage pass and later in business, alliances were formed on mutual appreciation. Keeping my wonder vegetable and the benign delights over the indeterminant horrific rabbit holes caused by the mildly hallucinogenic properties was a conquest worthy of continued daily use. The solution was offered to me by a friend after a prebreakfast puff on the way to work, as the meal arrived my friend noticed my disposition had changed. At that moment my high was coming in like a tidal wave, my fear swelled inside me while my mind generated a believable reason to feel that terrible way. My friend might have noticed apprehension in my eyes or an unsteady shake in my hand as he congratulated me on achieving such an excellent high and he offered the pepper shaker with his most winning smile and suggested I take a good sniff as a fitting reward. Instantly the feelings of dread vanished and I was joyously reveling in the promise of a new day sporting an awesome peaky glimmer.

  4. I relied heavily on it to sleep to the point where if I wasn’t stoned I could not sleep. I would wake up the same time every night and go smoke a bowl just to fall back asleep. I could not go one min after getting off work without smoking. My tolerance was super high. Smoking 1 gram joints would do nothing but lead me to taking bong rips shorty after. And even then the high would only last 15-20 and I’d be out smoking again. My irritability when I wasn’t stoned was destroying my family. Food was uninteresting and bland. And that was everyday use for 3 years. The only time I was not stoned was at work from 8-5. I quit 3 weeks ago and my nights of sleep are amazing! I sleep through the entire night and my irritability is gone. My wife and I get along so much better. I would spend anywhere from $40-$50 every other day on a quality 1/8 from my dispensary. If I had a extra cash it would go towards marijuana. I am not against marijuana by any means but moderation is key and that applies to anything in life.

  7. I have been smoking for 4 years now and im 22, and i still do. Only reason i started and kept smoking is becouse everything was more interesting when im high, and i felt more alive (taste,music..) if i can say so. Only difference i noticed compared when i was not smoking, besides having less energy in general, would be long term memory loss. Dont get me wrong, things i did remember when i was not smoking, i can still remember those, lets call those carved memories, everyone has them. But, some informations that are not that much important, i forget. For example, i watched this video last year when i was high, and now i feel like watching it for the first time. That is i'd say only negative thing about weed for me. While there is one positive thing weed helped me with, and that is social anxiety. I was social anxious even when i was around my friends, not to mention feeling when you meet new people, or even worse, meeting group of people. Now, when i meet group of people, i could simply talk with them whole night about everything, while not giving a single fuk. I dont know if weed has anything to do with that, but i think it really did help me. It didnt mess up my emotions or anything like that, and i dont think it will do to anyone, i was emotive, and still am. I smoke about one joint every second day, since the day i started smoking, so yeah, i didnt increase dosage. I love doing everything while high, especially working out and things i have never done. I hope this helped anyone, take care of yourself 🙂

  8. Wait… I’m 14 and smoke every now and then bc I have really bad anxiety and migraines but I only smoke on like the weekends or a few hits in the morning 💀 should I stop??
