What have been the effects of you smoking weed?

I have found more pros than cons in being a very big stoner Before i smoked i was fat, depressed and shy. Now i'm the completely different. People always say i look so much better and i'm so much nicer now that i am always mellow

BUT of course their have been some bad stuff for me aswell. Firstly just the fact that i'm addicted isn't fun, i mean if i know i wont get weed for a day i will be so angry and stressed out. Also my memory is hot now, i cn't ever remember anything.

So what have been your good/bad side effects?

 

I gettin kicked out of the navy: good I love to smoke: good
I cant think of any bad things. Ive been smokin weed for alotta years and am happy about my life and how things are goin

 

It makes boring/mundane activities fun again. The memory has shown signs of slipping, but nothing drastic.

 

my hair is much longer. haha
I hang out with more people.
I don't care as much about school. which I find good.
I'm actually slimmer.
I'm more involved with music.

 

i dont quite understand how you see it a good thing to not care much about school? lol 'i like cannabis caus i get lower grades'

i dont understand. i mean sure, you can just not care about it. but how does that make your life better?

i think im more confused as to how.. well.. when you did care abotu school.. well.. i dont understand, its preference. how can you say your life is better from a changed preference, when your actually making your situation worse. but like grades aside, i dont wuite understand this situation.

i care about school less. i live with it sure but i wish i had more motivation to do work. its one of those cons thats made up for with the pros :S and its the same with absolutely everyone i know and have ever heard on the internet.


anyway, cannabis has given me a direction in life (through thinkning while sonted that is) and thats all i really care about.

i could say other things but its the same for everyone almost

 

Bill, school is for chumps. No, but seriously, so much of it is bullshit, busy work, stuff we don't need, won't remember.

And school is not the end all of life. It's not necessarily making your situation worse by not caring about school. Life is a game you learn as you go along, you remember better that way. Book learning can be helpful, but it isn't necessarily going to make you happier than a drop out. It's all about what you as a person find fulfilling, not how much you know about how a cell works, or which dates and places you know about the Civil War.

For me, smoking weed has mainly just gotten me into spirituality again, which is good. Besides that, it's shown me some truly outstanding music that i'd previously ignored (like classical and jazz), as well as given me some, in my mind, important insights. But I think it might be keeping me in my rut, because it sometimes serves as an escape. I've also become more withdrawn, but I'm not sure that has anything to do with weed, since I've always been rather shy anyways.

 

i know that about school man, but its the essence of what he said, its just confusing. getting good grades is better than getting bad grades, no matter what you do after school.

i still want to get a good final mark, caus if i dont... well.. then the last two years of my life have been wasted, and i want to prove to myself that i can do it. caus people say you know that im fucking it up with weed, so i want to prove to them that im not, by getting better marks than all those people

 

My outlook on life has improved so much since I starting smoking the sweetleaf. I'm generally happier, more carefree, nicer, not as quick to upset, etc etc. There really isn't many cons to it.

 

Good:
1)Im much more social with my friends and siblings that smoke.
2)My parents have decided to let me make my own decisions and live with the consequences.
3)I look at things in life a lot differently and more realistic.

Neutral/Bad:
1)Short tearm memory has definatly seen a change, its harder to remember things that happend like 2 min. ago, etc. Its not too bad tho =)
3)A slight cough here and there, defiantly not too bad.
4)Teachers have seen a change in my personality and style, and keep telling my parents im gonna be another hippy pothead.

^_^

 

one would assume running out and having to get more

 

Better: Happier, appreciate music more, easier to get along with other people
Worse: cough, got parents pissed at me

 

Fuck the other people. If you have to prove it to yourself, though, I guess that's cool, cuz that's your own deal. But screw everyone else. If they want to see you as a failure, let them. My neighbors all seem to look down on me since I dropped out of college, but who's life is it?

 

Weed has helped me when other drugs have failed me. I used to be really fat and depressed, but when I started smoking regularly, I lost 30 lbs and got off antidepressants. It changed my life. I still do well in school, but climbing and stuff is more difficult b/c my lungs are full of tar.... Weed is goooooood....

 

Pros: Mellowed out alot more, had some really good times and seen some fucked up shit while high, smoking can be a unifying experience and has brought me to peace with people I didn't get along with

Cons: Killed my ambition for school, helped me to realize that most of life is just getting ripped off and pointless (this is good that I'm not some kind of ignorant tool, but again, killed all my ambition and aspirations within the system), makes my brain feel dead sometimes, when I come down I get introverted and kinda depressed...

 

In a better mood most of the time, better grades in school, people have told me that im much easier to talk to.

 

i need people to take me seriously.

 

No significant negative effects, I dont smoke that much. A cough here and there but thats not bad. Memory can be a little off but thats only for the rest of the day after I've smoked (of course). My grades havent changed at all and I'm much more mellow and patient now.

 

i got pretty blazed a couple of times from smoking weed

does that count?

 

when i smoke i actually kind of fade some stuff out, like there will be a kid in the group and 10 min after he left i will just of noticed he was gone, and ill be like wtf! were did he go!, and start freaking out cause people are vanishing. thats the kind of stuff that happens to me. and if someone tells me a serious story about gangs or somthing ill start cracking up cause i think what there saying is complete bullshit like, they will say they od'd on heroin and were dead for 5 min, and came back to life ROFL! what kind of bullshit is that haha. thats how i am when i smoke, eitehr im in la la land or im laughing, or im relaxed layed back.
