    i used to when i was in college and had really cool friends who were so fun to smoke with . then i got married and moved to germany .. one reason i dont smoke now is cuz it just wouldnt be the same.. not as fun.. the other reasons are because after living a party style life... smoking all the time.. it started to have effects on my emotional behavior and nerves.. i became depressed alot, had slower reactions to stuff, and had panic attacks. i didnt do other drugs so im pretty sure it was the pot.. anyway, since i havent done it i feel alot better. i dont think its really that dangerous just taken in excess like i did is not a good thing... i will probably smoke someday again once or twice or something if the time is right and i can enjoy it but for 2 years i havent really had much of a desire for it and dont plan on ever getting back into a habit of it. :)

    I used to smoke weed when I was younger. I never brought it myself, only ever had it if it was being passed around. I was with the ventures, and anytime we went camping the weed would come out and be passed around. It was kinda fun, getting high, but I stopped smoking it for a few reasons.

    First of all because I saw that it was habbit forming.. while not addictive in itself, people would find themselves unable to function without some weed... I didn't want to grow dependant on it.

    I also noticed that my memory was fucked when I spoked it, I could not remember shit, even now I've still got a very bad memory, and while I don't know if it's all down to the weed I smoked, it's sure to be related.

    I also got a fucked up throat towards the end when smoking it, I hated how it made my throat feel, and could not bear it.

    But I think mostly because I don't like the idea of loosing control. I like to be in charge of what I do and when I do it... I don't want some dumb drugs controling my actions.

    So now I don't do anything. I gave up normal smoking around a year ago. I gave up smoking weed a few years before that, and I don't even drink that much alchohol...

    In a month it'll be full 8 years of smokinkg pot. And never in my life i tought of quiting. I'm playing volleyball, i work as a coach for three years, and still remembering things really good. I've never felt that smoking pot disturbs me. I even had a ritual of smoking, night before the game, to sleep better, and be fresher for a match. it really helps. And when knees starts to hurt...

    There are a lot of good reason not to quit, you just have to choose right one...

    I quit because I would get some really intense anxiety attacks. I used to get really enjoyable highs, and thought I would never quit because I loved it so much. I would smoke at least 3 times per day and literally EVERY day. It just isn't for me anymore, and I don't have any regrets.

    well, i dont get anxiety, i dont get panic, i dont mind a bit of lsot memory, i never had good memory anyhow, i like the new outlook i have on life, i hate beoing sober, id been sober for like 14 years straight, then onto alchohol heavy for a yea, now into weed. weed stopped me drinkning alchohol almsot full stop. i love weed. imight grow out of it, but ive been almsot two weeks clean and i hate not being stoned.


    ill try not to make a habit but in some ways its inevitable.

    i respect poeple whove grown out of weed, but not poeple who wont try it full stop, or those who stop caus of some revelation and then become anti-drugs.

    I did it a couple times in 8th grade I just found it boring. It didn't taste very good. I prefered to smoke my Salems and Blacks and drink alcohol. That got old after a while too though....

    I used to smoke a lot of pot but i quit because it wasn't for me. It made me feel deressed and untalkitive. I thought everyone hated me and I felf ugly. I had more enegy when i didn't smoke pot. SO it was only natural that I quit.

    I don't smoke it because it makes me really tired and I don't enjoy that. I just don't enjoy the feeling in general. I used to...back in high school I smoked everyday and I guess I must have enjoyed it, but I don't really understand why now. I really enjoy being sober now. I can actually get things done when I'm sober! lol!

    the worst thing is that i developed a taste for it back in the days when i snatched from my brother. my mom found his plants and he stopped smoking. i got over it for awhile but then at a reggae festival i got reminded about how great it is. and now i REALY want some smoke and cant find some anywhere. not a single person here in my town smokes. NO ONE! im left hangin.
    No i try to get some similar feeling from making tea out of amanita muscarias.
    it gives an effect but still aint the same...:(

    Smoked like a DEMON in the past! From about 14 - 21ish I would smoke every day, often starting the day with a sliff and not really stopping from there...Eventually I decided that it was becoming detrimental to my life in that I was staying in smoking - my social life was suffering as the only friends I spent alot of time with were smokers and my out and about friends who prefer pubs and clubbing were disappearing...I discovered that I was a more out and abouty person and I didn't really want it anymore...
    For me it was a phase I went through (albeit a long phase!), which, when I made choices about what I would prefer to do (stay in or go out) it lost...

    I want to start smoking but I don't know how to get any. I know of some people who smoke weed but I'm not like actually friends with them I've only talked with them once or twice. If anyone else has been in this situation and then managed to get weed please tell me how you went about it in a pm or post here or whatever

    if these people that ur talkin about look like nice people (wich i guess they are) then u should sometime step up to them and try to make a bit conversation. and like ask what their doin later or something. i have no experience of this but now i give u tips. anyway, back to subject. Either u should be brutaly honest and just ask. OR u can just build up for the question. And DONT worry! They most surely will let u tag along or something. Im sure ur a very nice person so they CANT say no. Just chill...:cool:
