Doesn't anyone feel like they've lost theirself with weed?

I've been smoking since i was 15 on and off until about 17 then i was doing it way more.

Man, i used to play basketball, play video games, watch anime, compose music. Slowly, I've lost motivation to do any of that stuff.

I just kind of feel like those kids in the above-the-influence commercials. It feels like everything their saying is right. And i know a lot of people on here hate those guys and try to defend them.

I'm not knocking weed, i think its great, but it becomes a problem once you start losing your personality.

I swear I'm not even the same person i was back in high school. And feel like with weed I've been pressured into doing things, i didn't usually do back in the day. I also feel like I'm just sleeping my life away sometimes, i can't remember too much.

And the crazy part is, weed is in no way addictive to me in anyway. I've stopped smoking for days sometimes up to like 2 weeks, but got pressured into smoking it with friends again.

And they ALWAYS want to smoke, everyday. It's like they need weed or something, i dunno.

I'm not knocking weed, again, im just venting.

I like weed, but sometimes i feel like its just something i need to do by myself every now and then.

I used to make beats a lot, and i slowly just loss motivation to do it anymore. I used to work on a beat for maybe like an hour or 2 back in the day. Now I just start a beat, and save it, and usually end up only working on it for 20 minutes or something. Like i've loss motivation.

I know everyone isn't like this, because i had a friend, that serously was a weedHEAD. i mean he would play basketball high.....then after the game...smoke another blunt like wtf "aren't you tired"? Like he's immunne or something lol.

I've tried to do these things while I'm high like make beats, but the weed makes me so damn tired and i just usually go to sleep sometimes.

Maybe i'm smoking too much? maybe idon't need to smoke a whole blunt, just hit it a couple of times and put it out. But i dont even smoke like that, i usually just smoke whenever my friends smoke.

Deep down i feel like weed is like a once in a week thing for me, to relieve my mind of the stress for the week or somethink. Weed is stunting my dream recall, so its also holding me back from lucid dreaming.

I feel like weed has me depressed when i smoke, i used to seroiusly zone out, and have racing thoughts and shit when i smoke with other people. And i think it had something to do with social anxiety, I' wasn't that used to socializing, i grew up mostly by myself, in my room on a computer. All my chiuldhood friends had moved or whatever. I also was diagnosed with ADD as a child. I've learn to overcome it though and just act pretty chill when i smoke with people now. It's just the motivation thing, i usllaly don't feel like doing shit when i smoke, but try to do i tanyway, feeling tired as shit.

And i've heard there are different strains of weed that make you more energetic or whatever, i think i should get me like an ounce of that and smoke it when i feel like it.

 

so just try to regain yourself... just do what you want to do.

If you want to play sports, do so
If you want to play music, do it

the only reason you "lose yourself" is because you allow it to happen

Just live the life you want to live, with green as an enhancement/treat if you like

 

Seriously though, it sounds like you need to take a break, and get some new friends.

 

....I didnt bother to read the whole thing. Hell I didn't read anything but the title but in answer to the threads title.

No.

 

yea and with the "lazy and tired after smoking"

Your probably smoking shit, get good bud and you probably won't feel that way. Sativa strains

 

Your right. I didn't use weed responsibly, i was young-minded when i started smoking and i guess i just thought it was cool or something.

I'm about to start playing ball and again, and doing what i do.

I might just quit weed for like a couple of weeks or so, get my head and motivation back right. Then smoke on occasions or whatever.

 

yea









I'VE DONE SOME GOOD IN THIS WORLD



+1

 

Mhm.

 

Just don't let yourself become that...although you have. But don't let it happen again.
Just do those things when you're high is all I can say. It will be fun.

 

Yeah and keep in mind that its not for everyone, it might just not be right for you.

 

Like anything in life, its all about moderation and balance

I'm of the strong belief that you work first and play later. I frown upon all day smoking and smoking at work just like I'd frown upon waking up and having a beer or taking a swig on your lunch break(although I respect your right to live how you want).

I do all the things I need to do, do all the other things I want to do but shouldn't/can't when high, and then I smoke.

I don't feel like I've lost myself at all. In fact, I think that I've progressed above and beyond what most people my age have. It's not because I'm better/smarter or anything else. I've just had the discipline to do it. If you can have the discipline, then continue smoking. If you can't, then stop.

Cheers

 

yea. Like the other guy above said, it might be the shitty weed im smoking.

It's usually crappy ass nick sized schwag for 5 dollars.

And it looks EXACTLY like this.



I don't want to smoke this shit anymore, i resorted to just selling this crap.


But a couple of times I've had some high-grade weed, and i was just blowed, and had a good time socializing and rapping with good friends.

My step dad has a friend that he says they used to smoke whats called "afghan kush" and its really really potent. I'll try to see if i can get some of that.

 

that's dirty

get something that looks like a plant

 

yea thats what its about. Discipline. Thats why only responsbile people need to smoke weed. Because i was very very young when i first started smoking. But one thing i didn't really do was go to school high, i did it like maybe 2 or 3 times.

I problaly would have failed my ass off, if i would have been in school high al the time. My senior year is when i did alot of toking and ended failing an english class.

But i went to summer school and completed the course.

 

I never thought there actually was weed like that picture depicted

 

thats disgusting. I wouldnt even smoke that.

 

i lost motivation to read your post.

 

i did find that smoking weed changed me. but not nessicarly for the worse.

 

I smoke weed everyday before school and feel that it gives me a reason to learn, like I wouldn't even want to try because I just wouldn't want to be there if I wasn't nice and baked. Getting stoned also allows me to relax and not make such a big deal out of petty shit.

Also I definitely haven't lost myself, I just apply myself in new areas now. A shift was definitely in need from before though. I wouldn't say I have lost motivation, just I don't exert myself meaninglessly anymore
