Do you smoke weed?

[seven2go]

Tried it in the drug laden 1970's and early 1980's. Three times. Hated it each time. Never tried anything else. Drank a hell of a lot of gin though. Sober now, 13 years!

Early 70's for me too and only twice. All I got out of it was the giggles and insane munchies....... ........no way could I have afforded to continue buying food at that rate.......
Did booze too.......been totally sober for 35 years too! Congrats on YOURS!.......

You said earlier you dug the singular alone high? When i was fourteen I drank a case of Michelob Dark and smoked weed all night long while jamming with some incredible headphones to the doors... the only time I ever felt I really truly understood Jim Morrison....

Hell yeah I did.

My fondest memory is of a relatively cloudy Summer night. I went to the park behind my home, put my headphones on, and got nice and comfy on a park bench. I spent the whole night watching the clouds slowly float by while listening to music. It felt as if the entire park was encased in a gigantic glass dome, and that nothing outside of it existed. There was nothing to worry about, there was nothing to think about, it was just me and my music; and all there was for me to do was enjoy and appreciate it. And dammit, I did.

There's no way I'll ever forget that night; amazing experience.

I used to smoke regularly towards the end of my high school years with friends and what not. Then when I was like 21 I quit for 6 whole years. There were pressures and what not but I made it through. Then in March I got this urge to smoke again so me and a friend did and it was great! lol. Anyway, since then I've been smoking on and off but I quit again in September cause I'm in serious need of a job. Realistically, I'm probably gonna do it down the line *somewhere* but I am in no honest rush to do it again.

I'm wondering if anyone here experienced or experiences this?

I used to smoke weed. A LOT. Where I'm from, I'd say 3 out of every 5 people here do it. So when you're not buying weed, someone else is letting you smoke off them. I got high at least every single day for 2 years back in high school (not too long ago). It'd always be the same thing "laugh your butt off, eat tons of munchies, relax and feel stoned for hours, then sleep" for me. It got to a point where I'd get high and go right to being depressed. I'd think about things I don't normally think of when I'm sober and I get this guilt trip for the remainder of the time I remain high. So I quit because of that and it still hasn't changed. I'd NOT smoke for 9 months, try it again, and experience the same thing. So I don't smoke weed anymore because of that although I'd love to lol. I miss everything about it, minus the unproductive part and eating too much.

Smoking exacerbates things... that's why being high makes you more receptive/sensible to music, funny things, socializing (for some people) etc... but it is also the reason why anxious people feel more anxiety or people with latent paranoia or depression have it revealed/awaken by getting high...
In other words smoking didn't create what you describe but revealed it
That's my experience and understanding of weed anyway

That looks scarey and dangerous.
The first time saw someone getting high.

 

[refujiunderground]

how long were you high for?

i agree with you.

 

[Telstra]

I don't smoke. I do like the smell of it. It makes me a bit horny, though o.o

mmm i want to smell it too but won't smoke.

Smoking weed makes you eat too much and get fat ?

 

[Laufey]

It increases your appetite. It can actually help people who are ill and loosing weight get their appetite back.

A lot of things can make you add weight though including many medication and alcohol.

If you dont want to risk adding weight then the key is moderation just like with alcohol.

 

[Ithari]

Yes i smoke weed casualy..daily haha.
I guess it's less casual if i smoke daily. But i'm still young and if it wasn't for the tar i'd be smoking it would actualy be healthy.
Weed has lots of medicinal effects.

 

[frankfrank]

YES!! But very rarely. I've had a joint with me for exactly one month, now, which I haven't touched. No, wait, I touched it - to move it - haaaaa!! The joint has traveled about 2,500 miles in eight states.

I can't remember if I smoked yet at all THIS YEAR - thinking that I did at the beginning of May in Wisconsin, and/or about a month earlier in Ann Arbor. I enjoy it, but it no longer does the "spectacular" sensory things with me that it used to.

QUOTE: refujiunderground

i don't catch the munchies though

Are you and I the only ones?????????

Weed, for me, would be the most surefire way to do some real dieting, and stick to it.

 

[frankfrank]

I tried it a couple times in college, but it did absolutely nothing for me. Just inhaling nasty smoke from burnt leaves.

Why would anyone want to do that?

I understand that MOST people get nothing out of it on their first try. A guy who is still a friend all these years later (he was one of the people at yesterday's Thanksgiving party that I went to) had me try it...oh, THIS is interesting...on the DAY AFTER THANKSGIVING in 1973. My first try entirely blew the roof off, so I was an exception. I had never smoked anything before, but even that first toke, he was entirely amazed how deep and massively I inhaled it.

Some report weed makes sex better. Not sure about that though....

YES AND NO, for me. If I orgazz, it is incredible. However, pot makes my brain so hypersensitive to tactile sensations, the sharing-ness of the time together, etc. that the actual sexual part is submerged by the intensity of the other related sensations. My mind also gets too busy to concentrate enough on sex to bring it all the way through. If I'm high, I can just stay there and hold and cuddle and caress, kiss, etc. until next July.

Its over by Upper New York. Could it BE any farther away and still be in the state? Rat fuck.

Well, it COULD have been in North Adams or Great Barrington...or (at the "wrong" time of year) Provincetown.

 

[zoltanspawn]

Pot makes me anxious. I wouldn't describe it classically, like paranoid. It agitates me, makes me super-nervous in an unpleasant way. It's too bad, because it seems to have the opposite effect on most people: mellowing and dreamy.

It also leaves me feeling dull. For a couple days after, I'll feel a bit dumb.

Haven't smoked it since my twenties.

As per salvia, I'm not sure I see its place in a thread about weed.

That makes PERFECT sense. I haven't been diagnosed by a doctor, but I know myself well to understand I deal with minor anxiety/depression. I guess weed isn't for me anymore then lol, but at least I can still tolerate alcohol.

Hell yes!!!

Yeah I remember that a few times when it just made me go out and pace up and down on the walkway. Super hyper! Other times it made me feel like becoming part of the sofa. And still others made me horny. But the most common effect was lung irritation. Best avoided IMO.

 

[Blk_Thickness]

Hell no, I will never...ever smoke anything!!!!!!!

 

[dereperez]

Never smoked weed and don't plan on it. I do drink but only very casually, and almost never any hard liquor. Though some say it tastes yucky, I actually enjoy the taste of beer.
