Why do YOU smoke marijuana?

yeah...luckily I've got a cute face, so they wouldn't sentence me to life or anything...just a few short months with charges dropped to almost-manslaughter-but-not-quite-cuz-she-had-pms

 

Hear hear!!

 

you ladies, believe me, you are so right, while I don't have tourettes, I have heard that tourettes activity is linked with activity in the temporal lobes, where i have severe seizure activity and MJ, along with anti epileptic medication (but i HAVE to use both in combo, which is looked down upon- I could give a damn- the Moralist Doc weren't the ones unable to drive, fainting and having seizures and violent psycholtic episodes)

And this precious herb keeps me together- I have learned to use it, not abuse it, respect it, and it continues to lead me down the path to healing and knowledge. LONG LIVE MARYJANE!!

 

i hate how hipforums doesn't continue to give you reputation points, you sum things up so well! I am with you on the alcohol personally, I used to drink just because it was "there", and once I finally split from alcoholic ex i was just thrilled to permanently keep alcohol from my life and finally start smoking pot again!

 

I smoke weed to lighten my life up. It makes my daily life a little bit more interesting and currently it's helping me get over the OxyContin cravings that I'm still having.

 

It helps my joint pain, back pain, and depression.

 

because mary jane only wants to give and never take ....
all the drama fades away as your bake gets higher
your thoughts seems to be so amazing every time i bake up im happy and thats hard to come by in this shitty ass world ... yup and who doesnt love some bomb kush by a camp fire ?!

 

I smoke/vape for many a reson I see last post in this thread is quite old I think stoned but this thread worth keeping alive plus im bored this moring One of the many reasons is pure enjoyment of the feeling so called reccreational cannbis use but I feel it goes further then that; I can smoke an indica domanint strain to relax my body stop aches and pains froma hard days workout better then say ibprofin a legal pharmacutal for the same use, help my sleeplessness. Any cannbis seems to help my social aniexty which I have quite severe but am lucky to have a lovely plant as medicen and people who love me who can forget/mabey allso have a few stoner moments with me Life is good and mine has certinly been inhanced by cannbis. I hate how non medical people simply get painted with a broad brush as reccreational user simply b/c they dont have a green card or w/e its called the medical benefits are undoubtfuly there by my first hand experince.
Take care all enjoy your herb and be safe, *randy*

 

I think its one of the most enjoyable things I ever found, next to time with family/friends and beer drinkin!!

 

I smoke because

1: It allows me to organize my thoughts better

2: It gives me lots of time to contemplate the meaning of Tao

3: It makes me feel happy of course. Happy all the time is better than some of the time.

4: It helps me control my anger problems. Tho I need to learn to control them better without it.

Btw I smoked my first bowl in almost 2 years last week. :sifone:

 

Because its Good for ya son MMMm hmmmm

 

I've smoked a few times, and it took the third time to fully get used to the high and enjoy it to the full extent. After that third time, I felt incredibly more at ease, even days after the high wore off. It definitely enhances my ability to appreciate art and gives a lot more depth to the culture I see in things. A lot of things in my past I am able to let go of. Also there's no doubt that the high feels amazing. I remember watching this while high: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZD-48WUGMY4

It put me in a different state of mind and gave me a lot of unique feelings. I have definitely had some unpleasant side effects, such as a tiny bit of paranoia, but the more times I smoke it, the less intense the paranoia is. At times the time distortion can be a bit annoying, asking the same question to somebody 5 minutes apart, hehe. Also I do have a bit of trouble focusing for around 36 hours after the high wears off, but coffee and a good night's sleep tend to remedy that.

Overall, weed definitely improves the quality of my life, and I have definitely come to like the "stoner culture". I explain this to people as: "I didn't truly understand Adult Swim until the first time I smoked pot."
There's also the more ancient culture that revolved around weed, such as shamanism and similar things. I definitely find that very fascinating, and it seems like smoking weed can definitely help you better understand that culture.

So basically, I guess that means I smoke pot for artistic and cultural reasons.

 

Makes my thoughts clear, and lets me focus. Enhances the flavor of Cap'n Crunch.

 

Here is a funny update: Despite my seemingly ranting rave about Marijuana on Page One, due to some very crazy circumstances, I am actually now considering try Medical Marijuana as a substitute for my off-label prescription of opioids for my Bipolar Disorder. Talk about doing a 'one-eighty'. But I will try it again and see if it helps.

 

I smoke too-
Help my; Depression, occasional back pain, and anger issues
Improve; sex, music, art, food, and drink
Prevent; negativity and close-mindedness

I love Mary Jane.

 

it's a instant stress and headache reliever, and it helps me sleep on the nights i need to go to bed early, it helps inspire me to get more creative when jamming

also it gives me the warm feel good feeling that we all know and love

 

without weed we wouldnt have such good musicians in this world
look at black sabbath and other bands like them..!!

weed has contributed more to this earth than any other plant... in my opinion

 

Because it's a great thing

 

lovely sig ^

 

I smoke pot so I can go to heaven before I die-Andy Warhol
