Paranoia

Does anyone know a way to keep from getting paranoid. Whenever I smoke with people I don't know I get paranoid that they are looking at me and laughing at me for being so baked so I try to hide how baked I am. Basically any method for not being paranoid other than more drugs would be much appreciated. If its a legal drug I'll try it.

 

Some things i do to get rid of paranoia:

Dont carry weed whne going out
dont carry lots of money when going out
Check for wallet often
finnish duties before getting stoned

i dont get worried about pl looking at me caus im a real extrovert. so yeh, i usually make a scene of myself. i mean who cares if theyre laughing at you?you have every right in teh world to seem like a retard, your stoned remember? and if you dont have any weed then you cant actualyl get in trouble. thats the main problem, most ppl are heaps scared that ppl will know theyre stoned.. but who cares, the only ppl to fear are gangs that beat up stoners. police cant be bothered organising drug tests if you havnt actually done anything wrong.

 

I have the cure:


Time.

you'll "outgrow" it.

 

He's right i used to be the same if i smoked in front of ppl i didnt know and even some ppl i did know i'd be all paranoid that they where always watchin me but it does go away after a while but for the time bein you just gotta think about somethin else while your smokin and eventually you'l begin to realise they arnt watching.

 

Isnt half the fun having people laugh at you? I think it makes it really funny. did you ever have one of those moments when your weed has caused your time to feel like 10 seconds is forever? Whenever people stare at you and youre in that state of mind its crazy.

Stoner bill, yeah they cant drug test you. I dont know about in aussie but around here theyll drag your ass home to your parents. They dont bother to deal with drunk teenagers or high teenagers unless theyre acting like real dumbass's or threatening to hurt anyone. They really have no where to take them, all the juvenile detention centers are filled up here. If theyre at home why bother to take them and get them detoxed?

 

i think that kind of paranoia comes from insecureities...i used to be the same way, i would always wonder what people were thinkin about me when i was stoned, even around friends. so i quit smoking for about 6months to work on myself and get my shit together...(it isnt easy when your high all the time) i actually digressed alot, cause i was smokin pretty much all day, so that became my dominant mindframe, eventually even when i was sober i was still in that mindframe because it had become such a habit.


the farther you let yourself slip the harder it is to climb out the hole.


or maybe this isnt your problem at all, but thats my story

 

StonerBill gave some good tips, you'll never be completely free from it, but you can limit it, is also a good idea to gove the smoke a rest for a while every now and again.

 

You should change your sig man, you are basically advertising a website about a terrorist organisation who are a bunch of idiots who blow up their people for their "cause". I for one find it offensive.

 

^^ Yeh your basically disrespecting people who been killed by those pigs.

 

lol how bad is it though when everoyne actually IS staring at you... its a nice trick ot play on stoned ppl. get everoyne to stare at them. lol.

 

When I start getting paranoid, I try to shift my attention away from whatever i'm freaked about (usually heard some sirens or some other stupid shit), and focus on my heart. Like, I try to make it slow down and stop beating so fast. After a little while it becomes a game, trying to will it to calm down. The great weed high eventually starts to take over, and I forget I was paranoid at all.

 

I agree with Bill. The whole point of getting stoned is being fucked up. Do what you want to do and let people talk. The worst they're going to do is make fun of you, anyway. If you were smoking with me I'd make you some food and make you feel at home. This is what a friend is for, man! One of my friends fell down the stairs at my house once,... no one laughed or even cared. Another guy stood up too fast and passed out backward. That's just the way it is. You don't get high to be sober and lucid, man!

You know what I hate? When I get high at home I always think I'm less high than I am, so I'll get really high and then go out. When I'm out I finally realize just how fucked up I am. I had to start putting a "science" to what I was doing and observing how many hits I can take before going outside. I've had to go to classes REALLY high before. I got really dizzy and almost fell out of my chair. It was shitty, but like aforementioned, you learn to supress your paranoia.

 

i cant think hard enough to be paraniod
im just kinda hungry

 

Haha you get that sometimes aswell, also walking home in the dark daydreaming and suddenly your at your front door, and you can barely remember walking home, the flip side to that though is sometimes it's not that nice, you keep turning around every 10 metres to see if there's anyone behind you .....ffffreeeeeakin out!

 

So? I support the i.r.a because i believe in what theyr fighting for im not advertising nothing im not forcing you to go on the website so if you find it offensive dont go on it simple as. Maybe you should have a little look around the website and you'll understand what the fight is about and then you'll realise theyr not a bunch of idiots. I would think you being "irish" would support them too after all its your country.

 

Your Scottish, what the fuck do you care! And also I know exactly what the fight is about and I want the Brits out aswell, but your trying to justify the existance of a group of people who kill thousands of people alot of them innocent women and children. The vast majority of the Irish people would prefer to see the Brits gone, but they don't go around bombing their own people in an attempt to achieve it. They've gotten further with peace talks during the ceasefire than they ever did with bombs and guns.

 

I care because like i said i believe what theyr fighting for plus i hate the crown. For Scotland its too late for a fight but for ireland theres still a chance for freedom. It wasnt that when the british army killed those innocent people on bloody sunday or when the british army came dragging young men from their beds and killing them in front of their wives children mothers and fathers (if the fathers where alowed to live). Just think if they came in and took your dad from his bed and killed him there in front of you what would you be feeling? (im not saying your dad is in anyway involved and i wish him no harm its just and example before you start crying). The british army are murdering raping scum and need to get the fuck out then there will be peace in ireland. if you want the British out why are you against the I.R.A without them there would be no one doing anything for your freedom. If ive offended any english ppl with any of these rants i apologise right now i dont hate the english ppl i hate the english government and the english queen (she's not even fuckin english she's german) and as soon as they start dealing with their own problems and leave other countrys alone then i'll stop supporting the I.R.A but if that ever happens the I.R.A will be disbanded because there will be peace and the fight will be over. But at the end of the day i have my beliefs and you have yours so therefor i am entitled to have that sig because i believe in freedom and justice and the untill theres freedom i'll keep shouting Toichfaidh Ar la untill there is freedom in ireland.

 

You took the words right out of my mouth.

Man, don't support terrorists. Support peace.

 

I dont support terrorists i support freedom justice and peace. The I.R.A are only branded terrorists because theyr against england and anyone against england or america is a terrorist arnt they.

 

You guys said try laying off the herb for a while to avoid paranoia. Part of the reasons I think I get so paranoid is because I don't smoke often so every time I smoke, even schwagg, I get completely baked. The last time I smoked it has been a couple months since I smoked. Its been a couple months since that time as well. I still can't find a connection down here but I just recently started looking.
