Getting high smart when you're depressed or worse?

Well yeah my life pretty much sucks right now, my GF of a year just broke up wtih me cause I never told her I lost my job and she went to my job asked for me and they told her, and I still lied to her about it until she told me. Now I'm depressed and restless and was wondering ways to take my mind off things. I have been contemplating on taking some gravity bong rips but not sure if this will just make me feel more like shit. Just wondering on how to cope with this.

 

whenever im down and i smoke i find its a lot easier to get distracted doing something else rather than thinking about what got you down in the first place

 

Well, you don't wanna just smoke EVERY time you're down.You have to learn how to deal with it on your own sometimes.It may help for a little but it's still gonna be there later

That's lame that she did that :/ How long have you been jobless?

 

Just don't drink. You'll be even more depressed.

 

Depends. Sometimes it helps, sometimes it can be a "bad high" where you can't stop thinking negative thoughts

 

Yeah that's true. like it'll be for a temporary time but then still be there when you are back sober. It's my fault I lied to her so it makes me feel even extra bad. I've been jobless for about 2 weeks now but I never told my GF because I was ashamed. So whenever she'd call me I'd lie to her and be like "Oh, I'm driving to work..." and she'd ask me how my days at work were and I'd pretend I was at work these past 2 weeks. So she finally found out, and then fought with me about it and broke up with me saying she'd never trust me again. FML!

 

Oh yikes.Will she even talk to you?

 

Yeah, I wouldn't say it'd be horrible. There are definitely worse things you can do. Just steer away from stuff that will strongly affect your judgement. Alcohol is a biggie.

 

Nope. I Tried calling her but she ignored me, until I called and her friend answered (she went to her friends house cause she was hurt) and I talked to her friend and she was telling me how she doesn't want to talk to me at all and feels like a Fool. Then she went on about saying how I am living a double life (wtf?) Her final words to me was that she "never wants to talk to me again and don't bother calling cause she won't answer, it's over!"

 

It can go either way. Sometimes if I'm bummed smoking cheers me up. Other times, it just makes me more depressed.

 

Do you smoke anyways? Does your ex know you smoke and is she cool with it?

It sounds like you want her back, (I'd assume so) and if I were you I'd stay sober just to deal with everything with a clear head.

I think it's lame that she'd break up with you cause you were fired and you lied about it...just tell her what happened and that it was because you felt ashamed. Any decent girl would forgive you

 

getting high is always smart.

 

You can smoke and get distracted easy. Smoking always puts me in a better mood. If I'm really upset and depressed though, it'll just make things worse. One thing to definitely not do is drink. All that does is intensify what you're already feeling. Drinking during a crisis will make you an absolute fucking wreck. It's like one of the worst experiences ever.

 

yeah man i drank one time when i was depressed and like i'm the type of person that doesnt feel depressed very often at all because I know its not worth feeling but sometimes like after a roll i'll be depressed. when i was just a little depressed though drinking made me feel like the day after a roll. smoking is so great. I put all the stems from the 8th i had in my bowl and smoked them. I officially have no thc besides the already loaded waterfall which is for sleeping purposes only really. lol you can tell i got high off those stems though cause i'm rambling
