    I know it will be tough for some of you guys to come up with stuff, or admit it if you do, but what are some good things about always being sober? My physical health doesn't permit me to smoke weed at all anymore and it really sucks. (Something with my nerves in the back of my eyes going crazy when they relax when I'm high)

    Of course there's always the money issue, but that never bothered me.
    Other than that I've got nothing.

    And whenever I tell myself to just go out into nature when I'm sober and bored, all I think about is how awesome everything would be if I were high at the time. Like trees and whatnot in the forest, or when I eat food, I consider how much better it COULD have been

    You can vape your weed, and eat your weed.

    You're not burnt out all the time.. Although, that can sometimes be nice. But nate, I don't think he meant the act of smoking weed itself, but just being high. I've never heard of the problem he seems to be having, but I guess anything is possible.

    Yeah... I simply can't be high at all.
    I've also never heard of any other person who smokes weed have this happen to them. But I am absolutely positive that my eyes get WAY fucked up and like roll back in my head and stay there unless I try EXTREMELY hard to keep them straight... so the whole high is just me focussing extremely hard are my eyes looking forward, and then extreme paranoia comes because I can barely control my eyes.
    It was so scary, so I haven't gotten high in months. I've literally forgotten what being high feels like... It's sad
    (I'm going to the eye doctor at the end of summer, and I'll probably ask her about what could be happening.)

    jeez, i've never heard anything like that happen to anyone!
    i hope you can get it figured out.

    but anyway, the best things about being sober from weed is you aren't as burnt out, and you save a lot of money! it also seems like when i'm sober, my day goes a lot slower (which is nice in the summer or when i just want to have a day to relax)

    I think there's a benefit of not smoking weed sometimes. But there's also benefits to toking up, as long as you're not burning yourself out with it. Once I burn out I don't see any reason to keep smoking. That's when I take a break to get my tolerance down.

    I love being sober actually, and I love being high. Enjoy life both ways.

    Yeah i can deal with both easily.. I may be a complete stonebag but if i dont have weed and im not high, it isnt a big deal to me, but of course i would prefer to have weed. Sometimes its great to not be high though, like if i was on vacation on a beach in mexico, who needs weed really, thats like a natural high haha..

    But for now im gonna go smoke a bowlski, peace out.

    A benifit to not smoking weed... um... not being paranoid as a motherfucker every time a door opens down stairs and not and not piggin out on munchies. sorry about you eyes man. are you sure your not just getting uber baked without realizing it? ive freaked out over things like that when ive been really high (like bending my finger with the back of my hand towards me and thinking my cat bit it off for about an hour). good luck with the doctor hope it helps.

    I think that weed becomes a problem when things only seem fun after you've smoked. Enjoy life for what it is, meet some people that you maybe wouldnt have before because maybe they dont smoke..or maybe a girl or something. The fact that you can just stop smoking is great..not to sound gay but you should be proud of yourself for that.

    i dont know honestly cause getting high is one of my favorite things to do... im never bored when high, any shit i enjoy when sober is better high, and when im high im happier and take life easier than when sober.

    it makes my life better so i dont think there are benefits to not smoking weed.

    When I smoke alot everyday I actually feel like I'm a little dumber. Especially when trying to write things, like right now. Usually I can put words together really easily but when I've been smoking too much It seems alot harder.

    But its not a big deal, smoking doesn't really positively or negatively affect my life in any way. I just like getting high. :D

    Yeah, I dont mind the slightly slower brain, but I am def a quicker thinker now than I have been in recent months. I find that the only time pot effects me negatively is if I'm trying to save up some cash or if I have a drug test.
