I love pot, Really I do. But lately it seems to have been just making me really stupid... and boring. I need to take a break or something. But a lot of what i hate about pot is how so many poeple just freak out about it and cant live life without it. A lot my friends are relly boring poeple because of pot. Its such a cheap way to happiness. But when all you do is sit around and play video games (something im not really into, obviously ) It just kinda makes you a slob. Pot helps me focus, otherwise im really hyper and sporadic. Most people cant keep up with me and in the end they just find me akward. But pot calms me down in the perfect way. WHAT DO I DO? Im really sick of spending all my time and energey into pot... but without it im crazy. -rydns
haha well it's the same for me. i went from smoking daily to smoking every now and then and i love it. i actually get high when i smoke, and i'm not spending money on it like i used to (well half the time it's free anyway). just give yourself a two week break and if you feel any better you will know what to do.
Take little breaks between your sesh's. I go one week on, one week off (sometimes more, sometimes less), and I find it's a lot better. Don't get high at times when you can't handle it (like work or school). BTW, if you don't like pot, you don't have to bitch about it. Just quit it! Also, the behaviors you mentioned are not inclusive of all pot smokers. It's likely your friends are just young and stupid (sorry).
Just take a break and let your mind clear up. As natural as people say pot is its addicting as hell. Im having the same problems with alcohol. It would be so much easier to quit such habbits if every i knew wasent into one of the two. Now days it seems impossible to chill and have a good time without some sort of substance. sucks...
Its not that i dont like pot. I love it... more than one person should. And surprisingly all the people I know who play video games and shit are in their late 20's or early 30's. My younger friends are a tad bit mor proactive... But i dont relate with them anyways... And I know its not all pot smokers... Just it seems to be what people do when they get high.. I want to walk around and they want to play xbox...
It's okay to love it. But I can see you're starting to understand that some people abuse pot, and you don't want to. I think playing Xbox is okay. I for one love guitar hero! But I am like you. I also want to get up and do things while I'm high. I like to go outside and walk. It does get boring sometimes.
I think basically moderation is the ticket for all this stuff - it's really a lot nicer to smoke one a week or once a month even - and get a real sweet high. Seems like most people run into a wall after about 2 years - its just not fun anymore. But it's really easy to keep saying yes when you first start... For those of you who cut back from smoking everyday - do you still have to say to your self - 'ok, I'm not going to smoke today', or do you have days where you forget that you smoke weed (does that question make sense?)
too bad! It's a lot of fun to ride your bike & go swimming - go for walks in the woods - I like to be active & moving - OR - if I have a chance to have interesting conversations with cool people, that's good too. I dont' like to goof off so much - I prefer to be thougtful or productive. *Swimming* is the bomb if you smoke ps: if you take a break - it will only make you crazy for a day or two. You can handle it. Just like when you cut out junk food - its the transition that's hard. Once you there it's no problem. Oh - a neat bonus of quitting - a good week of really intense (not scary) dreams
You know, I've been going the whole "moderation route" for like 2 months now, and it's kind of lame. I looked back on these two days I've had off school after finals, and came to the conclusion that the next $45 I get needs to go towards a half of mids or something.
it's easier to slow down on pot if you find another entertainment, just get yourself into a position where you dont need pot. thats what i've been doing lately since i decided to quit until my drug classes are finished. it also helps to not buy any, i dunno if your like me, but when i have weed i smoke it regardless. "i got more lets load another one" so basically my advice to help you slow down is to just find something that will distract you from it, preoccupy yourself with something else
I have just started smoking again after a three week break. I took the break to allow my system to get rid of all the stored THC in my body for the first time in nearly two years. And now that I'm smoking again it makes the times you're high more intense and meaningful. It's like you're actually psyched to go smoke instead it being something where you'd be smoking eventually anyways so no biggy.
How long of a break do you usually take? & like, do you get to a point where you don't think about it & have to resist the urge?
dude i would kill for some bud right now. just moved and shit so aint found none yet. you should obviously quit if you dont appreciate it.
^no reason to quit..i think he just needs to find the right amount to smoke. once or twice a week is plenty. this way i don't have to spend any money on it (parties = free pot) and i don't get too lazy during weekdays.
