Is weed just a performance enhancing drug for writers and poets?

no weed is a retard magnet that dulls the mind
only retards imagine that it has any benefits and ruin their lives with it
>I can stop anytime bro
and they never do
and their brain is completely fucked
and they are not worth saving

Weed dulls the senses and hampers creativity. Writers prefer tobacco or cocaine. And poets prefer heroin.

maybe the first few times you take it, but weed just makes me slow these days.
psychedelics give me a boost for a few days though. I always write my best stuff in the week following a trip.

Writers are either alcoholics, or heavy smokers. They generally aren't stoners.

LSD is a true artist's drug of choice. But a true patrician would just do alcohol and nicotine, drugs dont help anyone for shit and its as much of a myth as all the other fallacies normies think artists go throught

yeah, i think i'm aware i have developed an addiction, i do live in a city but i think the problem is that i barely have any friends and i'm somewhat autistic, and i feel trapped in with my life and the people around me. and it's weird because i think the same thing when i'm stoned but when i'm stoned i feel the will to change my life for the best and actually do stuff, so weird.

For me, it's the sober time. I quit six months ago and feel crazy depressed despite maintaining coffee, nicotine. My mind is useless when I'm high but smoking nightly puts me in a good mood *when sober.* I think I'm about to relapse.

Tobacco and nicotine is the most useless drug lmao. Might as well light your money on fire instead. Every artist at least try mind altering substances, you owe your life the experience. It comes with the territory.

Maybe you're just conflating the losers that gravitate to weed with weed itself. If you're capable you're capable and if you're not you're not. Weed is just like alcohol or any other substance. Fine in moderation but people with issues will abuse it and use it as the excuse for why they can't function but they would be the same without it

That was my last thought while high. Usually I try to write these things down to make sense of them while sober.
