hey whats up everybody, i brouse through here alot but dont really post anything, anyways i just want to say i love pot, but sometimes it really makes me think about my life and i get really sad, like extreemly low but by the time it wears off im prefectly fine, i hate it!! BUt other times its amazing good experiences, anyone else have this problem?????
I think about my life all the time while high, and always feel reassured, even though there are problems, when I'm high and think about them they seem like not a big deal. I never get that dude the rule of thumb here is if it's not fun for you stop doing it
but most of the time it is fun its just when things are going bad pot makes me realize how bad things are
Yeah I know what your talking about, it can happen to anybody. I think its happening to you more because of what enviroment your in when your smokin...possibly. Smoke up more with friends in a happier atmosphere like outside or something, or try occupying yourself when your high like playing some xbox or whatever to get your mind off any upsetting life situations you may be in. Hope this helps.. good luck and happy tokin.
it seems to me that weed exagerates emotions and if you get bad thoughts like that its just from low self esteem. Just distract yourself from your bad feelings and do fun things and dance and laugh and have fun when your high, thats what it is about is having a good time and being happy.
usually guitar brings my spirit up and being with friends is great to just when im alone at home my mind will wander
if things in your life are -really- that bad, perhaps you should be thinking about them like that when youre sober
"Whether we regard our situation as heaven or hell depends on our perception." -Pema Chodron think about it, there´s a good and bad side to EVERYTHING. you can always perceive it in both ways, somehow. for instance, let´s say that someone close to you dies. at first that seems bad, but eventually it might help you to value/appreciate life more. ever had one bad day while the next is great and nothing was really that different between the two? it´s not the days that are changing, but rather YOU that´s changing. if you´re kinda dwelling on some "bad" things in your life after smoking, use the high to help see things in a different light and look for the good. it´s there. it´s always there.
here´s another quote that goes along with what i said above: "Trails are like that: you´re floating along in a Shakespearean Arden paradise and expect to see nymphs and flutebugs, then suddenly you´re stuggling in a hot broiling sun of hell in dest and nettles and poison oak... just like life. Bad karma automatically produces good karma." -The Dharma Bums (Jack Kerouac)
Sir, I have this exact same problem. Your problem is: You need to get high with your friends. If you're alone, you'll think a lot more and shit and you'll get depressed and shit. I've been there man. I seriously get really sad sometimes but not when I'm toking with my boys
That's why I consider marijuana to be very therapeutic. When smoking I always see the good before the bad, even in bad situations.
This started happening to me a few months ago, I would get really depressed and sad over things that don't seem that bad when i'm sober. But I realized that some issues were real and were much easier to ignore when I wasn't high- I have since started working out some of these things and i'm all around happier and smoking is definitely a more positive experience now.
