Ok so lately whenever I smoke, I tend to get really quiet and kindof awkward around people. It becomes kind of difficult to speak, to really articulate whatever I want to say. Plus I just keep thinking about how trivial speech is sometimes. I just lose all motivation to get involved in conversation and this problem hasn't worn out like I thought it would. I smoke nearly everyday-well about to take a break- but I this whole issue still really affects me. So when I go to a party and after I've taken some good hits, I get really anti-social. It's becoming a problem, because I don't want to be the quiet guy. Because when I'm dry, I'm actually pretty outgoing. hmm.... Has anyone else had this problem/heard about it? If so do you have any advice?
to keep a balance there must be moderation, begin spending more time on the edge or past it, and expect some consuequences. weed is not really a social drug, and it usually has many effects which get in the way of socialising... basicaly, when youre high on drugs, donot expect to be able to fit in and contribute to a sober crowd, it just doesnt work. fuck i thought this was @ teh commen scense
sometimes when I get stoned around people, it feels like everything I'm saying sounds retarded and everyone is laughing at me in their heads. I'll end up just sitting there the whole time not saying anything. I like smoking alone more.
^ saaaaaame on the come up i'll be really talkative, but once that levels off i'm DONE. i say little to nothing, and that's just how it is. i have conversations with myself inside my head though, and that's pretty fun
I always talk when I'm around my friends. But at school I've never gone to the afternoo classes sober. And the thing is I came into my old school like a couple weeks in a new class and shit. It sucked because it's a grade 10 class because the course is worth 2 half credits and I only got the first half one last year because everyone failed the other one because its so damn hard. So I've always been high in this class so I've never really had the need to talk to people, I'd rather just do my work and listen to music. I wouldn't talk to the kids anyway, almost all of them are a year younger than me and there pretty annoying.
If you do get anti-social when you get stoned at a party/crowd, don't smoke weed if it troubles you. It's that simple. With me it just depends on the crowd. I don't get quiet while smoking lots of weed with some good friends, while with other good friends I don't like to conversate at all when we're stoned. When I'm stoned and the people around me aren't it's generally not really good conversating, although it also depends on the crowd in this case as well
I hate it when sober people are ragging on you cause your high. either they dont like weed or they're jealous that they're not fucked up.... FUCK YA'LL!
me too man, I am a very quiet person even with out weed and when I do smoke, I don't say shit, not one word I listen to other people talk.
Depends on the high... I get baked with my freinds quite a bit and sometimes we really have intense convos but other times its just too much of a pain in the ass to form a sentence so we just chill in silence... Give me beer and weed tho and prepare to go deaf lol
thanks for the replies Do you think it might just be the bud I'm smoking? I normally just smoke 50, mainly because I just love smoking blunts so much. Some of my friends say that's why. But I'm about to get a vap, so I may start getting some better shit. So does anyone have suggestions for what type of weed may make me more social/outgoing?
It's not the type of weed, I think it's more the setting, people, situation or mood. That kind of stuff.
maybe instead of smoking around your friends you should have a few beers. alcohol is the ultimate social drug. any anxiety you may feel, any self consciousness, any inhibitions, are all eliminated with alcohol.
i hate smoking with other people. i always get really critical of my behavior and become extremely self conscious, ergo i won't say or do anything. deffinately not a social drug for me.
You guise are gay. I get fucked up all the time, and say what I want. If the people around don't like it, fuck 'em... who the hell are you trying to impress while you are getting stoned?
yea i get that sometimes. it gets really hard for me to speak intelligently when im high. i stumble over my words a lot. I would rather smoke by myself and chill sober with my friends, that always seems to be more enjoyable. however if i get high with friends i sometimes get quiet and awkward. i just try really hard to come up with something worthwhile to say and its allll good
