shit i've been sitting here thinking about what it was like when i first started smoking. it's amazing how much being high has changed. it used to be like an enormous event, but now it's just like a regular thing. i don't even smoke that much, maybe once or twice a week now, but it still isn't as great as it used to be. like i remember going and buying an eighth, and having it last like 2 weeks cuz i barely had to smoke any at all to get REALLLY high. and now an eighth lasts me like 2 days. *sigh* to only be a sophomore again...
its also why lots of kids move onto new things so that they can experience the feeling of taking something new and exciting, but arent afraid of drugs caus marijuana is a drug afterall, not much of a step towards maybe a little speed or some meds a friend can get for you
its still never the same.. just the newness of it was wonderful in the beggining. now its wonderful in a differnet way, less exciting and more family like wonderful. other drugs give the newness factor and id say when kids have access to other drugs theyll often go for other drugs for the newness factor, amongst what would make cannabis be called a 'gateway' drug. but its still wonderful as it is so unless your impatient and need the feeling of new drugs all the time, then its fine to go from loving the newness to loving the companionship of cannabis. but i must say, taking new drugs is a hella va lot a fun!
do somthing to shake up ur mj life. like old people and their sex lives. get a new smoking device, try an exotic type of weed start listening to psychadellic music when high u know something that'll alter teh experience. that might work.
i think it's got some truth to it, especially the comparison to old people and their sex lives. try doing some differentthings while stoned if you find yourself doing the same stuff, do some real relaxing things, take a fuckin hot bath or listen to music(which you probably already do), that or take a break, but you say you only smoke 2x a week and it isn't very enjoyable? or just isn't as enjoyable?
I don't mean to disrespect you or your opinion, but in that statement you make tokin seem like a novelty experience. If you don't appreciate it anymore, then quit smoking. But Jojoeyes had some good advice in my opinion, just smoke every way possible until you find something that suits you. You can make it fun again with some effort. Just don't give up on it so easily.
I'd suggest that you just stop for a couple months just like adoutsider said. Then when your tolerance level goes back down then you can smoke the hell out of anything you please... Having fun the entire way. 2 months of sobriety would make getting high again an amazing experience.
Happens after a while with any drug or experience - called habitation - just one of the things that go with having a mind - why you have to try something new every day - even if it is only a different route to work. Or something new for breakfast. Have to keep cutting new neural pathways
You're right. I only remembered seeing the part where you referred to the newness being wonderful in the beginning, but i went back and read over it again and I completely agree with you. Apologies.
