Whats so great about it?

i just dont see it. what makes it so tempting? ive done it a few times, and it was cool and all, but i just dont get why some of you people center your lives around it. i mean, do you need drugs to make the world seem less complicated? ive noticed on these forums that some of these people seem to think of weed as your entire reason of existance. its going to be pretty hard to suceed in life after you have smoked yourself retarded. come on people! what the fuck is up with all you stoners out there?!?!

 

my life is not centered around weed. for me, it doesn't make the world less complicated, but it does help for me to see things in a different light. i don't smoke as an escape...when i was younger i used alcohol as an escape, but thats another story. as i have noticed from from this forum, weed is not the reason for there existance. i have read a lot of posts where people wrote that school is really important to them, as it is to me. my future is far more important than any drug could be. but if the drug can assit me into finding who i am, then i will experiment. so i smoke because it guides, not controls, my life...it helps me see a different aspect of life and what is really important to me.

 

I would reply to your post, but I am out of weed right now and I cant function. Please help the withdraws are awful. The center of my Universe is missing!

 

great answer! thank you for giving an intelligent answer. usually when i bring that up with someone they call me a pussy or something. i guess those are the kind of people i was talking about. you seem very mature about your desicions, and i admire you for that.

 

ok your strange.....but funny

 

Weed doesn't control my life, it just enhances it.

 

My life is far from centered around it; I use it to enhance things in my life. I actually do better in school when I'm high and not tired; I've had problems with insomnia in the past two years (I've only smoked in the past year) and when I was put on Concerta it helped to keep me awake. I can actually function and produce much better when I'm high, but I don't need to be high to do everything (much less anything); but it helps with the rather tedious things.

I do, however, know people who have real problems with it, those people just aren't responsible drug users. A responsible drug user knows where, when and who with to smoke (although I did get ticketed once because I was careless) and can stop and stay away from the stuff indefinately if truly desired/required. You gotta know your limits and keep what you need to do ahead of what you want to do; people can pull a 4.0 and still smoke 3 times a day, everyday, for years. That's a friend of mine, right there; she pulls straight A's but smokes everyday (I dunno how often; maybe I should smoke her up some time).

 

Weed isnt reality or an escapse from reality for me it helps me through some seriously tough situations. I could easily go without it but it makes me me.

 

u couldnt go without it! 2 many chops and 2 many magic cones

 

And whos stoned rite now writing this...not me and I bet you are. Weed dosent controll me I controll the weed

 

I'm on UAs, so I'm not high right now...

 

I dont think weed controls my life either I think it helped though It made me more organized and cleaner I made better grades doing drugs then before I guess I felt like if I did drugs I had to make sure I could be responsible and not let it ruin my life or make me lazy Right now I havent smoked in two weeks (I have to find a dealer) and Im perfectly fine besides having alot trouble sleeping but I recently got medicine for that So I guess I could live without it...I just dont want to.

 

weed didnt control my life but i needed it every day, just like there are people who need their cigarettes. ive never been very good in school so me failing one class wasnt cuz of weed its cuz that class was stupid and i didnt wanna do any of the work. before i got expelled i smoked every day, a joint in the morning, a bowl at dear time every wednesday, 1 or 2 bowls at lunch, then bowls and blunts and joints after school. i didnt even get really high except for a couple of times when i ended up downtown but not remembering how i ogt there . they were my cigarettes. but i havent smoked since may 5th cuz the next day i got caught with it at school. but what im trying to say is that i smoked alot but still did just about everything i did before i got into it heavy again(i smoked every day from 7th to 9th grade but didnt start smoking here until about november last year)

 

I think of weed as a hobby...

 

I have to admit, I haven't had my weed in a week, and I could really use some. I don't have withdrawal or anything. . . No headaches, no extra stress or anything. More like boredom. I have nothing to do but sit in my room all day and play games or read posts here, since I live in a place where the only thing to do is eat (seriously, this community is based on food, theres a new restaruant built every month it seems, and obesity is running rampant.) When I do something with my friends we either smoke or we just drive around aimlessly hoping an idea of what to occupy ourselves with will materilize in our heads. It never does. Both of my parents work, as well as my brother every week day. So I sit home alone all day, with these wonderfully perfect oppurtunities to smoke. .. but I can't, I can't find any weed. I WANT MY DRUGS.

 

It's recreational for me like some people play soccer.
and my future is important. but for those people that do have their life centered on it . its not that bad they are jsut really into it like a hobby. some people base their life on music and guitar playing. but as long as they dont ditch their morals its cool
