i despise weed and have since I was 13 when I suddenly shifted from loving it to getting panic attacks from it. For almost two years I smoked every single day and loved it and then suddenly it changed

[Anonymous No.12037333]

>>12037324
This happened to me and I don't understand it. It used to make me chill and super hungry.
Now even a little bit makes me have a panic attack.

[Anonymous No.12037349]

Probably way more than I should be. Usually I end up wanting to read about a bunch of different topics and might jump from one to another when I'm high.

I actually tend to absorb the material better though if it maintains my interest long enough. I get more engrossed in the book and thinking about the underlying themes.

The key is to just power through it, faggots. Happened to me as well (would get panic attacks, extreme paranoia) butjust kept smoking and eventually I became one with the ganj.

Yeah, I would roll a pretty fat joint and the first half hour of smoking it would be scary but once I got down to the crutch I wouldn't even know where I was.

Not often but the last time I did I read The Kingdom of this World by Alejo Carpentier. It was a bit of a trip to say the least.

Do you actually visualize scenes much better while reading high? Is this a real thing? If so, I might need to get back into smoking

[Anonymous No.12037421]

>>12037401
Eh it depends. Usually I can't even focus on the book while high, but if I can get to focus the text does seem more vivid in my mind

[Anonymous No.12037496]

Everytime I get high I end up binging on porn. It's so shitty. Every hour that goes by my tastes get more and more degenerate. I just got my legal weed (im canadian) in the mail today but for the sake of not spending the next 8 hours of my night masturbating, I've decided that I'm not smoking any of it. Yes to answer the question it destroys every routine I have and it makes me feel retarded for several days after the fact. Weed is... not that nice tbqh

It stops it falling out if you want to smoke it later.
It creates a neat end to the joint that can be torn off easily before smoking.
Because it pisses off posers like you who have a compulsive need to do everything differently because it makes you feel smart.

[Anonymous No.12037559]

>>12037293
No, but for years, it was everyday. Too much money, felt like I depended on doing it at certain times of the day as part of a routine, and just had to stop.
I have been writing a journal while sober for months and when I smoked again and tried to write, nothing really came out. I couldn't recount my day well, I couldn't imagine some thought I had that I wished to record. I just felt like shit. All I wanted to do was play Fortnite lmao. Couldn't even concentrate on reading books.

Not for me anymore unless I have nothing to do for like a week.

[Anonymous No.12037565]

In my late teens and early 20's I used to do a lot of coke and of course I smoked weed all the time. I got into robbing dealers and going on crazy binges. It really isn't worth it.

[Anonymous No.12037569]

Weed made me super lazy and led to a mental breakdown. So I stopped smoking it. Haven't touched it in around 6 years.

Those dealers must have been complete nuggets if a 4chan autist could rob them.

[Anonymous No.12037591]

If I stop smoking I can't eat at all and can't sleep at all for a week. I haven't tried stopping longer than that.

Am I using it to cope, or am I withdrawing?
I have no idea.

[Anonymous No.12037592]

Weed is a soul-killing death drug. I've had bright friends waste away half a decade on weed because it was like a consequence-free alcohol addiction but twice as fun. The only downside was they never did anything else, and all problems and discontent could be solved with weed.

[Anonymous No.12037594]

I'm too autistic to get weed. I don't know anyone around me who could sell me some.

Usually when I smoke I get very melancholic.

I was an IV heroin addict for like a year - would not recommend. I've been totally sober for a few months now and it's amazing how much better everything is.

Obviously pot is not quite in the same category as heroin, but putting literally anything in your body is going to have consequences for your cognition (moreso the nature than the strength) that far exceed what you'd expect. It's only once you have some serious time away form all mind-altering substances that one can see just how much they fuck with you, especially on levels that are hard to notice consciously.

I'm actually on the same situation you were. I'm having a lot of problem to concentrate while reading or even when starting to read, sometimes I just give up the idea of picking a book and go listen to music and get high instead. Do you think it would help my reading habits if I just stop with the weed at all?

Yes, I smoke daily. And yes, it fucks with your reading but there is something magical about it; if you force yourself to read while high you can get to the point when you can read like if you were sober but with heightened senses and better thought forming patterns, is a blessing desu, specially if you are stuck in a difficult reading.

For the first 3 years of university it was a daily thing. First year was pure bliss, second year it started feeling shittier and by year 3 it was a full on coping mechanism.

One of my friends started smoking weed at 11. He thought he was really bad ass for doing so and he tried to convince me to smoke, but I never did (until I was an adult). This friend later lost his mind (was sent to mental hospitals) and he's now almost 30 still living with his mother, incapable of holding down a job or having normal relationships.

I've had opportunities to try weed, and I've friends from school who used to smoke and sometimes do it still; I guess it never appealed to me. As for alcohol, I mostly enjoy it in its social context, I don't think it for its own sake. It generally goes a few weeks, sometimes months, between drinks.

Prison is fucking retarded. Either fine people for petty offenses (brawling with no deaths or permanent injuries, drunken disorderliness, etc), beat the shit out of them and humiliate them publicly for moderate offenses (repeat offenders, stealing, robbery, etc) or kill them for serious offenses (murder, rape, extremely persistent repeat offenders of moderate violent offenses or theft etc). There's no point in locking people up in cages like animals. It doesn't change anything. It keeps them off the street, sure, but so would breaking their legs or killing them.
