weed is literally smokeable autism.
When I was younger, and my endocannabinoid system was underdeveloped, I used to enjoy weed.. now I can't stand the stuff.
Not only does it make you autistic for a few hours, it has a lingering fog effect where your memory, mood, and other elements are affected for the next two or three days. It's not exactly a hangover, but like your mental pool has been muddied and is cleaning itself out.
Also it makes you extremely lustful. Not a pure horniness, but a sinful lust.
I now understand why weed has been called the "Devil's Lettuce" in the past. It truly is the Devil's lettuce.
Stop using this garbage. People think it's good for their mental health but it literally turns your life into a slow motion nightmare. It turns you into a worldly satyr that only finds solace in the most base and unhealthy forms of short term gratification.
yeah, similar experience here. Weed makes me horrifically paranoid and anxious while also generally gunking up my ability to think and compute, psychedelics and methamphetamine don't give me these issues. Weed is for sub-Saharan afriqueanoids.
you're so right but rolling marijuana that's a cheap vacation
it's a mild psychedelic you can do every day perhaps even legally
>just fix your shit bro!
yeah letme fish out my magic wand from the junk drawer and give it a twirl
weed isn't helping and only someone deluding themselves would believe otherwise but when you hate where you're at it's a cheap way to escape it for an evening with much less fallout than alcohol
i can smoke some, put some tunes on, and i'm off to somewhere i can forget all my annoying bullshit irl problems for a little while
the paranoia builds up bad for me because i'm already a paranoid person but whatever it's worth it i just have to take t breaks when it gets too bad
i only worry about long term permanent damage to my brain, which i've likely already done, but that's just vanity anyway since it isn't like the quality of my mind really matters
I smoke weed every day and I go to church, have a wife, and own a business. I don'[t think I'm a stereo typical lazy pothead. I just also have a 138 IQ and I feel like it helps make me stupid enough to deal with you idiots.
dad I know you're still "married" on paper, but mom lives in a different city now and talks shit about you every time I see her.
Thanks son. I ignored this post because I was too busy smoking weed LOL
i just can't stand the stresses i experience day to day. it's hard to get myself to cope like a healthy person, i'd rather just smoke the pain out of me and finally let myself relax for once. i don't care if i'm throwing everything away, let it go. i've become so afraid of being genuinely happy because it always leaves me, that i stopped trying.
like I said, I used to like weed.
I'm 30 now and my brain responds to weed differently. I used to like weed, now I hate it.
Also having tried LSD and DMT seems to have affected my ability to enjoy weed. After using LSD and DMT I feel more aware and naturally high as my baseline, so weed feels terrible now.
If weed works for you then that's fine, but eventually you may reach where I currently am and weed will stop feeling good, then you'll understand.
I want to try DMT at some point in my life but I'm afraid I'll have a bad trip and irreparably fuck up my psyche, plus it'll ruin weed for me too.
I just use edibles, and only edibles for special occasions. Keeps the high feeling fresh. I watched the second Spiderverse movie for the first time high and it was amazing. Turned a 7.5/10 into a 10/10 for the visuals alone. The brain fog is the whole reason I only do edible bi-weekly at most.
DMT is different from weed. DMT doesn't feel like a drug, you're basically hacking into your brain and triggering a near death experience.
I'm talking about n,n DMT. The stuff you actually "break through" on. The musty powder.
Also your description of weed enhancing things is one of the reasons I don't like it. I don't like having my standards lowered. I did notice that it made mediocrity feel great. This is because weed lowers your standards for film, music, food, and even companionship. That may seem like a good thing but it's actually extremely harmful and stunts your spiritual development.
You're not supposed to enjoy mediocre art, mediocre food, mediocre love. Nullifying your ability to critique your surroundings is terrible for developing your character.
I think it's fine to enjoy mediocrity in small doses. I often rewatch films later on and think of thing from a more critical perspective. It gives a lot of insight into how others may experience things. Although I will often journal while I'm high. It doesn't simply enhance your experience. It makes you notice things that you wouldn't otherwise. Without the journaling those insights are often forgotten.
>films
I found weed to be detrimental for watching a movie. You often get enchanted by an early scene so much that you are still thinking about it much later on into the film. The next day you forget a large portion of what you saw. Learning how to center your mind allows you to get immersed in films just as well as weed can bring you, then takes you further. Weed is so attractive because it gives you a taste of what you can experience with spiritual development without having to put in the mental/spiritual work. I don't expect most people to get this but it's true. Abstaining from weed and getting into fasting, meditation, prayer, semen retention, and mental works like what are described in the 14th century book The Cloud of Unknowing open up doors weed can never lead you to.
Also again, I did enjoy weed for many years. It wasn't until my mid 20s that something clicked in my brain and it just simply stopped working for me. Now instead of getting me high, it gets me low.
I don't think those are always mutually exclusive. One can practice mindfullness while partaking in it. It really depends on the individual and how healthy their ego is. Most people use weed habitually. It becomes a subconscious craving. Just another source of dopamine like videogames and masturbation. I only take 10-20mg once or twice a month and make a point of maintaining my journal during the experience. Sometimes I skip a month. It depends. I think any more than that leaves people vulnerable to forming unhealthy habits, and I don't think anyone who's already fallen prey to any form of habitual addiction or compulsion should even try it.
that's definitely much better than frequent weed use. I agree, I view weed is a mild psychedelic with strong emotional amplifying effects. Like other mind altering drugs, it shouldn't be abused. If you're going to use weed, don't use it multiple times a week like many stoners do.
same here, also made me stop enjoying alcohol and cigs
yeah that all tracks op. i cant enjoy weed like i used to, but thats probably because im not around people who genuinely do enjoy it now.
on the plus side, waking up the morning after a bad dissociative trip to a completely clear, sober state of mind is so unbelievably refreshing.
I never had a chance to get high with someone else. Always by myself.
If you are smoking, and i am smoking, and we are both posting? Bruh, that means we are smoking together! Think about it mannnnnnn.
>BWH
I used to get that weed hangover thing when I first started, but it hasn't really happened for a while now. Weed is mostly fun for the way it makes you think about all kinds of stuff, but lately I haven't been enjoying it because I just think about how terrified I am of death. It's not a bad thing to have around though. Arguably a better social lubricant than beer because it doesn't mess with your judgement as much
>Arguably a better social lubricant than beer because it doesn't mess with your judgement as much
Not for me personally, but weed and alcohol are the two main drugs that are known for affecting people extremely differently.
When I smoke weed in a social setting I immediately become self-conscious, dull, and less myself. If I have a moderate amount of alcohol I'm confident, friendly, talkative, and lively.
I never had a "oh wow I shouldn't have done that" moment from alcohol. I have gotten that from MDMA and weed though.
keeps me from killing myself and i can function when i've smoked not as many panic attacks compared to what ive had from pharma it works alot better
This is the exact opposite of how weed should be used. You're using it to mask your misery instead of fixing the causes. We need to experience negative emotions in order to drive change. The whole purpose of these emotions is to warn us that something is wrong, just like how pain motivates you to seek medical attention. You're popping percs instead of healing your broken arm.
ive been fucked up longer than ive smoked weed. I do agree im masking it but if I don't I'll just kill myself, I keep trying different meds therapy working out diet spending time with family prayer, its not a lack of effort. I just want to be able to hold down a job.
having smoked weed for 5 years straight I can confidently say that quitting 2 weeks ago was the best move i've recently made. The cravings are intense and my mood has been shit but im really discovering myself now, i feel like i've been in a mental fog these past few years just stagnating and not growing as a person. weed is the devil's lettuce, an insidious evil plant that will ruin your life.
So cool... rawdogging life amirite? don't forget to post this on /r/leaves!
what? weed literally makes me act like a monk/nun and just enjoy video games. youre just an autistic freak.
>monk
>Videogames
You're not this stupid, are you?
whatever fuck off whitoid go fuck a dog
God it's like talking to an ape. Any notion of self reflection is an attack on your ego huh? You can do better.
> not horny just simful lust
I feel the opposite way about. It makes cuddles feel just as intensely good as sex. When I do weed me qns my gf just end up rolling around in bed hugging each other all night, no need for sex. It makes me wholesome horny.
It's not smokeable autism. It's smokeable retardation. You just stuff your face blindly with food, lack most braincells and laugh at the stupidest shit imaginable while being generally retarded and slow
retards don't eat as much tho
this isn't true there is a negative correlation with intelligence and bmi
ITT: i cant handle a simple plant
It's great, got my hands on a shit load of weed, edibles, and mushrooms recently, so I'm spending all day /comfy/ while playing vidya, voiding out, and listening to music.
So what if it makes me more "autistic"?
I don't want to deal with normalnaggers anyway.
Weed makes my schizophrenia act up. I can't have it anyways
