Its funny how much smokers are in D-nile. I smoke daily and I know Im physically and psychologically addicted. Its something I'm not fond of since I don't do it to be cool, I do it cuz Im hooked. Being a musician most my life, In was exposed early to the herb, and must admit Im in love with it, but if you just stop to listen to how fuckin stoopid that sounds, you start to know why starting is NOT a good idea. Quitting is a must.

I'm not in denile. I know I can stop. I've never had a problem with it. I know people who say they 'need it'. I dont. Its that simple. So, until you get into my head and know what Im thinking, dont say what I am or not.

Its fun. Straight up. Thats why I do it. Its fun. Get a few people... Get high.. and you can talk for hours. Its pretty cool.

People on here are calling each other asses, and asking stupid condescending questions like why don't you just quit?? sorry everyone is different, it's not easy to understand of course...I'm not being antagonistic, I'm not judging people for asking these things..but it does seem like they don't understand as well as those with addictive personalities...either way, I'm happy to hear everyone's perspective, but particularly to those who have handled weed addiction and are okay to talk about it...thank god I'm not alone. I thought I was the only person in the world with this problem, as stupid as it sounds, cuz pot seems so harmless. Drug free since January 1st! (a new year's resolution). Thanks everyone from the bottom of my heart.

I dont show up to school high. I have in the past, but I dont on a regular basic. Problems with the cops? Nah.. Just do it at home and dont carry anything around on you and your fine. I dont go out and party, so I wont get popped there. I'm just really careful. Its the best policy. Its simply a thing I like to do at home.

hey everyone its been a while since i posted here....
i gave up pot over xmas, and i felt so good. like really really good, i had loads of money, i was never tired or 'too stoned' to do shit. then when i got back to uni i got myself hooked up with some weed, just for social occasions etc, it lasted me about 3 days and it was all gone, a whole quarter of skunk. it sucks because i want another one now, i really feel by doing that i undid all my hard work by doing that, and guess what? i feel like shit now i dont have my weed. back when i was a total pot head id have just got plain drunk every time i didnt have weed but this is a path i'm avoiding. i duno, i feel so low at the moment, it feels like the world has moved on but left me where i am, my friends at uni are so fickel and my friends back home seem so different now its like we speak another language. i just dont know what to do, im tempted to buy some weed and wallow in myself pitty but ive realised that thats going to get me nowhere at all, i just feel so lost and insecure at the moment......
isnt life grand?
(oh and incase you didnt notice ive been avoidint this forum because it reminds me of weed)
-
Why did you break down and buy the weed?? It's like alcoholism. You can't take a sip here and there. It's all or nothing. You say you felt great while being off weed. STAY OFF IT then.
-
the thing is, i like smoking weed. i like being stoned and messing arround, its great fun!! when i had that weed i made a prommise not to do it all at once and i failed that completley. i will keep doing it but i think a break until next friday is in order, then i will pick up the joint again and smoke away possibly. if not then then i'll try to make it through next month without weed. hopefuly
-
Just as many alcoholics like being drunk or other drug users like the high they get. Sometimes you have to fight temptation tooth and nail.
-
im really confused. while i love smoking weed socialy i cant just have it socialy, its gotta be all the time, every night. after ive been smoking a spliff every day for a few days i find it really hard to sleep without it, i managed 3 hours last night...... anyway back to my point i dont want to be some pothead loser but at the same time i dont want to quit and stop totaly, i just want to moderate my ussage. does anybody thing thats a possible/good idea?
-
I agree with SDP when he said "all or nothing". I don't think it's a good idea to try and moderate.
-
For people like you, moderation and social smoking is not an option. You have too many issues with it. I smoke (cigarettes) now and then. Sometimes I'll smoke alot, sometimes socially, sometimes none for a long time. I can go without it. I can moderate. If you can't, then you need to stay away from it completely. You said you felt better without it when you quit for a while. Don't you want to feel better ALL the time???
-
i'm not smoking weed now, yet i dont want any. i'm not giving up totaly because i dont want to, but i'm not smoking it constantly because again i dont want too. i'll just smoke it when its free, and wish for it when its not

i know this thread is considered dead...but burn all of your pot and shit somewhere, or sell it and then stay on this forum away from the people with drugs and QUIT!!!
-
weed is bad, and will lead you to utter dispair.....
now that i got that outta the way, don't sweat the small shit you'll grow out of it. atleast i did, i mean i'll smoke if i have nothin to do. but dooooooooood, i cant help myself when that good ol' hash oil comes around. so hit it hard! better yet go get some hairy and smoke that shit if you wanna see what real addiction is. drug's like sex, is just something you'll go do and learn from. it all builds character. (our experiences) :wink:

In reply to:i know this thread is considered dead...but burn all of your pot and shit somewhere, or sell it and then stay on this forum away from the people with drugs and QUIT!!!OK, why? Did God tell you this, or is there a reson you say this?In college I hung out with people who smoked a lot of pot. It was almost never smoked during the day, except on weekends. By the third year, it was an occasional thing. By the fourth year, it was a rare thing. When college was over, I doubt that many people I knew missed it that much.However, I did see people developing into alcoholics. That's a much bigger problem, and the substance is legal. People would smoke dope and get smiley and mellow; people would get drunk and break things, get into fights, and set stuff on fire. Marijuana seemed like the better choice in a dormitory environment.But people can get psychologically dependent on all kinds of things, every if they're not considered psychoactive (ice cream is a good example). If there is research concluding that pot (or the new strains of pot) is physically addictive, could someone point me to it?

In reply to:and you can talk for hours. I don't need weed to do that chuckle I have never smoked it and don't see the draw to be honest....

In reply to:
I have never smoked it and don't see the draw to be honest
Well, if you don't try it, then you never will know. But that's OK.
I've sampled various drugs. Marijuana is OK up to a point. I was not at all impressed with the other stuff.
My bad for addressing the thread, and not the original poster in my last message, so here goes: If you're physically or psychologically dependent on some substance or behavior, to the point that it's having a detrimental affect on your life, then you need to seek out help. Dropping out of school and wrecking personal relationships, for example, is a lot more negative than the euphoria induced by pot is positive.

Alcohol is a bigger problem then marijuana. Alcohol is so much cheaper and easier to get. I dont drink often because I feel I lose a degree of control I had, that I dont feel I lose while on marijuana. But like I've said before: MODERATION IS THE KEY!!!! If you have a glass of wine when you get home from work or a beer, thats fine. But some people come home and down a 12 pack.
-
Yup, totally agree. I wonder if marijuana would be a much bigger "problem" if it were legalized.
