what has weed done for you?

weed has helped me learn life lessons. when i'm high i am able to self-analyze myself, and other situations, and also critique myself to become a better person... therefore, learning from these experiences, i have become more familiar with myself. overall, i've become a happier person. i've had issues with weed before, but now that i realize it, a lot of my learning, and experiences, lol, have been with weed and i am who i am today because of my experiences (with weed, lol).

i do have more to say.....
when i'm sober (for several days), i don't think about my life like i do with weed. life really isn't as enjoyable, nor is it much worse, without weed. weed gives you the ability to seek one's passion, dig deep into your mind, and brings out a better world.

i just wanted to put my two cents in. ^.^

 

it has help me when I had no appetite. I wouldn't be the person I am today if I had never smoked weed

 

It hasn't helped me a damn bit. I think I'd be way better off without it.

I love weed.

 

Acid changed my life.



Weed is more of a chill drug to me... It's a waste of time and money, but no more so than video games, and I don't play video games. All weed has really done for me is created great memories (most of which I can't remember)

idk.. Ive never really understood what people mean when they say it changed who they are.

 

agree 100% with two posters above me

 

which apparently earns me a negative rep

 

weed has introduced me to some interesting ideas, broadened my creativity and opened the doors to things like shrooms (gateway drug ftw)

but it has also marked me as a legal deviant and i will be lucky if i can clear my record, as weed has also grown into a certain level of enjoyment in my life that will be hard to kick

 

This. When I found out about pot, I instantly knew I would try it because I knew about the high felt like I'd be into it, especially since I didn't really like drinking. Nothing changed when I smoked it just confirmed I liked getting high haha.

 

It wasn't so much weed itself, it was the fact that it was the first "drug" I tried. It really made me re-think everything I had been told about drugs and how bad they are.

Eventually leading to me trying shrooms, mdma, 2ce and so on, which I would attribute more to changing my life in a positive way.

 

it has the potential to guide my creative energies :sifone:

 

well i cant say id be the same person if i never started smoking weed, and thats a fact lol. ahhhh the possibilities of what could have been

 

Weed has helped me realize I can be very awkward which helps me not be awkward as much.

 

See that's the thing I've always tried to put my tongue on. No matter how many epiphanies, or connecting thoughts I have when high, I just can't seem to muster the same energy or motivation when sober. I don't know if this is because.... those high thoughts had no merit? Or simply because it's an entire switch of attitude (high and sober) so different thoughts and 'epiphanies' (or lack of on the sober end) come to stage, and reality is then perceived differently....? If so, then which is the real one?

Anyone else has put thought into this and worded it better? When high, a lot of thoughts seem to connect themselves and 'make sense' and then resonate in my body, but often times I wonder if I'm just wasting my time...

I know the answer is much simpler than I think, but I haven't put enough time into it yet... Someone chime in and solve it for me.

 

^ stoned thoughts definitely have merit in my book.

sure you are high when you have them, that certainly doesnt make them meaningless or senseless... its just different perception of reality imo.

remember weed is a psychedelic.. those crazy realizations when stoned are certainly typical of all other psychedelics, and weed definitely is a very mind expanding drug..

i cant think the same way when i am sober either.. i can certainly be insightful, thoughtful, and come to a lot of realizations when im sober, just in a completely and entirely different way than when i am stoned. which is what makes weed so unique to me.

 

I'd say open my mind to the worlds possibilities.
And given me one great fuckin time :eggnog:

 

It helps my insomnia to an extent but it's something I need to keep a careful balance with if I'm to continue using it. It does not affect me as negatively as alcohol but there are plenty of minuses to my using it heavily.

 

weed is good for passing time when you're bored, it's makes my food taste better, makes my music sound better, and makes me sleep better (i've had troubles with insomnia for the past 6 years, weed has only helped to a certain extent with this because of my habitual use)
good way to wash away a stressful day, too.

that's how its helped me i guess..

 

the other night weed put the comedians from VH1's "i love the..." series into my head to comment on the new twilight movie.

i was pretty grateful for that, because what they were saying was fucking hysterical

 

it's helped me get high

 

got me high,

allowed me to be independent,

helped me make friends i wouldn't have met in other circumstances,

got me high.
