What does weed do for you?

For me, whenever I smoke; I'm able to look at my life from a third person perspective. Does that make sense? like, I can look at life objectively. Its like an out of body experience, only in the mind. I can look at my life, my past and present, and look at my future as clear as words on paper.
What about you?

 

When I smoke I get high.

 

I get "Classic Stoner" symptoms... I get real giggly and eat alot, then after a while I get into a couchlock stage and then either go out or sleep...Usually out for more food or a party...

 

i always forget to do something meaningful and just enjoy the high. makes my brain tickle

 

Theres sooooo much weed does for me.. I started smoking recreationally.. just for fun.. I used to be a really angry person.. just like my mother.. It was me against the world and hated everything and everyone. I was sexually abused by a step father, and it helps me forget and deal, like the OP said from a different prespective.. helps with the disaster that was my life growing up.. and deal with my mother.. and it just makes me happy.. without weed, i think id be dead or in a padded rubber room..

 

Same here! I always tell myself I'm going to paint a masterpeice or write a book or something, but once I'm stoned I end up just running around giggling or eating everything in the fridge.

 

i dont know if its just me but my eyes get really tired

 

wake and bake ftw

 

I hate to wake and bake. I have to smoke at evening or nighttime.

But it does a lot for me, clears my mind of negativity, but fills my mind of random and sometimes enlightening thoughts. It makes life more fun. It just lets me get away from everything and deal with life.

 

The pot high was always the classic scenario, until I started tampering with psychedelics. They totally started flipping my high into another direction when I was dosing about once a week, which I put to an end. Usually when I'm high..

* Extremely relaxed, sleeping comes on much easier than it would sober.. a big plus for me, I am bad with insomina.
* Audio hallucinations in the real sense.. Like actually hearing some weird popping noises. Not voices, but sounds.. Trippy sounds.
* Visual Hallucinations and CEV's -- All LSD/tryp/phen related..
* If I focus enough I feel like I'm floating, or moving even though I am perfectly still..
* Extreme short term memory, since I was smoking before I did this and that for the past few weeks I don't really remember much unless I sit there and try to recall..

And even though those are cool effects, it really wasn't even my intention everytime I got/get high. I just liked being relaxed and able to sleep my boring day away. It really isn't much of a social drug for me, people tell me I'm obvious when I'm high because I go from loud to pretty self kept, not to mention my eyes are like the first give away.

 

yup =)

 

totally

 

Aids in spiritual introspection... it has helped me to achieve peace

 

Weed helps me to realize the events in my life i think are important, arnt so important. Weed helps me achieve my ultimate perspective on something. Weed helps me to sit back, relax, and say fuck all yall. Weed helps me think about other peoples perspectives, not just my own. Weed helps me to enjoy something to its fullest.

 

I agree with the original poster. When I get high, I am able to see everything from a very clear, beautiful, overall perspective. It frees up my mind.

I feel much more confident and have better self esteem while I am high too.

Another thing that I do when I'm high if I chance to remember... is something that I do when I am sober. I use diaphragm breathing rather than breathing through my chest. This calms your body down and takes it out of fight or flight mode. This is extremely important for anyone who is anxious a lot. However, when you do it while high it feels amazing and puts you in the calmest mindset and enables you to fall to sleep in less than a minute.

You breathe in for 2-16 seconds (whatever you like) and out for twice the length, focusing your entire mind on your diaphragm muscle (in your stomach) and forgetting about every other muscle.

But ultimately I smoke weed because it makes me feel very good... while high of course.

 

Main effects for me would be:

-Increased thoughts
-racing thoughts
-Confusion
-Harder to concentrate
-Laughter comes depending on the atmosphere and bud
-Slight visual distortions. (I blame it on the pills)
-And that good old euphoria usually comes in

 

Weed gets me high, which relaxes me and calms me down after a stressful day of life.

 

if the vibe isnt right, its not mellow

 

I agree with the original post. When I'm high I have this capacity to look at life like all my past and present was written on a white paper. I can recall events in the past and put myself in it, feel what I was feeling at the time, being the person I was in that memory. I have a metaphor for THC, I call it the memory molecule. Anywho, that's what goes on in my brain when Im tripping alone lying on a bed not doing anything. It's all about the memories, the intense visualisations and the ability to become that past event.
But of course, depending on the setting, the trip will be different and I will never really think about my past memories when Im chilling with a bunch of people but often unconsciously Ill get some memory flashbacks because of a present scenario and remember a feeling I've had in my life.
THC is indeed the memory molecule, wonderful drug.

 

It makes time seem slower and fuller in this fast-paced world. It makes an hour really FEEL like an hour (or longer haha) instead of 2 minutes.

And I'm with the people that said "It gets me high" =D
