JayEnder: Should I quit smoking weed

JustJoe. 10.22.18	Yes.
J() Alexander 10.22.18	Yes. [2]
Jasdevi087 10.22.18	I mean you really haven't got a hell of a lot to lose by quitting
JayEnder 10.22.18	To live like Snoop Dogg or to not live like Snoop Dogg? What are all your opinions on the ganja?
J() Alexander 10.22.18	I mean, if you stop you improve your memory (I guess) and keep more money for cool shit. Also, like, there's other ways to relax, and you can listen to music without weed and it's pretty cool.
StrikeOfTheBeast 10.22.18	I don't smoke, but I don't have anything against it. Chronic use isn't particularly healthy though, and kids under 18 are more likely to experience complications with growth, specifically brain cells. Most people are able to quit without serious withdrawals like cigarettes or heroine if that's any consolation. In other words, do as you wish.
StrikeOfTheBeast 10.22.18	@AlexanderMR yeah that too. Your wallet (or purse, not judging) will thank you.
JayEnder 10.22.18	Yeah you’re right Alex, there are alternatives. Some days I feel the bads outweigh the good, and others the good outweighs the bad. The illegal aspect of it is also sketchy considering I live in a shitty state where it’s decriminzalized but still not legal. What’s the fucking point?
hal1ax 10.22.18	sm0kk
Larkinhill 10.22.18	Everything in moderation. In my teens and early 20s I smoked a ton and it barely did anything for me. Made me slow and apathetic. But now that I smoke once or twice a week, it works and doesn’t have a negative effect.
JeetJeet 10.22.18	NAAAAAH
Jasdevi087 10.22.18	if you're at the point where you're thinking about quitting that probably means it's time to quit think about it this way I guess: music is still good without the dope, it's just weed makes it feel more rewarding because... well yeah, that's what it does. You'll save a shitload of money and you'll probably get healthier too (smoking anything is still bad for you regardless of what potheads will tell you)
Jasdevi087 10.22.18	no reason you can't still have a sesh every now and then with the boys either
YakNips 10.22.18	yea if you want music to still sound good when you’re sober quit now
naughtcturnal 10.22.18	Nice to see #7 gettin some luv. But if you feel like weed is messing with you, make it a once in a while thing so it feels like you're treating yourself instead of feeding a habit (f.e.: on week-ends or on holidays)
JayEnder 10.22.18	Indeed Jas. Trust me there’s nothing I like better than to come home after a stressful day and just simply have a smoke sesh. Throw on some good music and I’m all set man haha. I don’t drink booze or smoke ciggys either, not fond of either of those activities lol. But at the same time, if I just dropped the weed and went fully sober I think I could do some real good for my health. Even though I’m not overweight and I look better than I ever have before, I still can’t help but think having it as a crutch can be a bad thing. Like Larkin said, moderation is key.
platnum 10.22.18	Lmao
brainmelter 10.22.18	I smoke all the time but if you feel it hinders you in any way you should stop. I’m a full time student and have two jobs, weed isn’t for everyone tbh. you don’t have to go cold turkey either just smoke every once in a while, moderation
rabidfish 10.22.18	as someone who used to light up every day 4/20 lmao weed my experience is... you don't need to smonk every day. But u can still lead a 'normal' 'adult' responsible life and still toke up from time to time.
platnum 10.22.18	Weed can be detrimental to a healthy happy life if you abuse it, if you really want to keep using it learn self control. Moral of the story is: stoners are uncool but moderation is pretty oki 👍
hal1ax 10.22.18	fully agree with whoever espoused the 'if you're thinking about quitting then you should prob quit / dial it back' sentiment
ArsMoriendi 10.22.18	Questions: Do you spend money on weed when you should be spending it on more important things like food/bills/whatever else? Do you feel like weed is interfering with your everyday responsibilities/job/school? -If so, yes stop. -If not, don't stop.
ArsMoriendi 10.22.18	Wait, read your list description. Yes.
SymbolicInTime 10.22.18	I smoked daily for a year or so. Rolled it back a couple months ago. Highly recommend. I still did great in college and work, but I just found myself spending way too much time on the couch doing nothing. And yeah it definitely effected my memory at the time too. Plus I save more money now obviously haha
Tyler. 10.22.18	98ytrhrg
WoodeeX 10.22.18	I don't smoke weed but I would condone if youre constantly performing at a high level in whatever aspect of life. For example, Michael Phelps is the best swimmer in the world and he is constantly pushing his body to the max, and smokes weed to relax. Many high performance athletes and occupations do this as well. But if youre just lazy all day and smoke, that's probably a bad idea.
Trophycase 10.22.18	I smoke every now and then. Maybe every month or two. Just keep it casual and have some restraint. You don't need to be high every day or even every other day.
Relinquished 10.22.18	if you think you gotta ‘quit’ then take that break
JayEnder 10.22.18	Solid words of advice fellas. Totally agree with that Relinquished. Once you start doubting whether you’re even enjoying it anymore... is it really worth it?
Relinquished 10.22.18	it’s not. the mind will get enjoy getting that fix you feed with more frequency. candy, muscle pumps, beer, weed, etc. why sully the occasion into the uneventful? why abuse the chemical levels of your brain? I still do it after 10 years, but ya gotta understand there are people that fall for the little things, like complacency at the workplace. understand what you have control over and read the signs, there’s a damn reddit sub of supportive weed quitters. t breaks are not necessary unless you make it (obv assuming fair enough it’s a non-addictive substance and you don’t slant on addictive genes)
hal1ax 10.22.18	your biology / circumstances are constantly changing. with that change is going to come vacillation in and out of the enjoyment of certain things. if your use of it has lost its lustre insofar as it no longer feels salutary or euphoric etc etc then do yourself a favor and listen to your body/brain. plus you can always circle back to it at a later point and feel it out.. i think most everyone needs a break at some point and it's good that you're actually cognizant of the fact that you may need yours
Keyblade 10.22.18	NAAAAAH [2]
ramon. 10.22.18	why get high on weed when you can get high on the holy ghost my brother
platnum 10.22.18	I wish I was straight edge tbh but at least i dont drink alcohol
YakNips 10.22.18	DUUUUDE WEEEEEEEEEED DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE
brainmelter 10.22.18	the holy ghost my brother[2]
J() Alexander 10.22.18	DUUUUDE WEEEEEEEEEED DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE [3]
JayEnder 10.22.18	Bro weed xD and yes platnum alcohol makes me wanna die
ScuroFantasma 10.22.18	I don't wanna scare you but I knew a guy who smoked a full weed once. Keyword is knew. Save yourself before it's too late.
platnum 10.22.18	alcoholism runs in my family and the people i knew who abuse it make complete asses of themselves, like my dad. Nty Holy ghost [3]
sonictheplumber 10.22.18	smoked daily from 17-22 and i get more out of it now that i dont smoke as much
hal1ax 10.22.18	dang a full weed? rip
Wubs 10.22.18	Also exercise will help your minds reward and mood regulation, if ya wanna bounce back from the withdrawal faster.
auberginedreams 10.22.18	Personally I think it’s kind of a dumb habit, especially as an adult.
Sinternet 10.22.18	jager shots are more fun switch to that
TheSpaceMan 10.22.18	Yeah bro as you get older you def shouldn't be smoking religiously it's a dumb habit. You'll feel way more clear headed if you chill out on it. Once you take a few months break it's not even worth going back imo
guitarded_chuck 10.22.18	its not inherently dumb im a productive adult making near 6 figures and smoke weed every day pretty much, your mileage may vary but if youre fucking up in life its almost for sure a discipline issue that is separate from cannabis and you're projecting an excuse onto it unless you've gone balls deep and are doing it all day every day, get your shit done and keep it to a reward end of day
guitarded_chuck 10.22.18	"if you think you gotta ‘quit’ then take that break" this tho 100%, then you can eliminate that variable and expose what issue you have and work on it without an excuse
DarkSideOfLucca 10.22.18	"but if youre fucking up in life its almost for sure a discipline issue that is separate from cannabis and you're projecting an excuse onto it" I mean, this isn't always true as weed actually does affect people differently. I've known very motivated people who totally changed once they started smoking all of the time and I also have family members/friends who smoke all of the time and have very stable lives and jobs. I have friends who can smoke weed and go out to a bar and have a good time as weed relaxes them. If I smoke and go out, it's a fucking disaster because it messes with my anxiety. Basically, weed is a weird drug. Take that break, my dude.
Egarran 10.22.18	I love it, but yeah take a week off. No need to think it through or fish for excuses from us, just get rid of all smoking gear for a week. It will be exciting, you will learn a lot about yourself. And the dreams, oh boy! Worth it.
Orb 10.22.18	I go on and off "the jazz cabbage" reguarly, but my sweet spot as far as moderation goes is to only smoke after my daily tasks are dealt with. Whether that means blazing at 8pm after I'm done running errands and stuff, or torching a blunt at noon on a sunday before I mow the lawn, as long as I can avoid the general public and anything that involves a decent attention span I'm fine.
guitarded_chuck 10.22.18	"I mean, this isn't always true as weed actually does affect people differently. I've known very motivated people who totally changed once they started smoking all of the time and I also have family members/friends who smoke all of the time and have very stable lives and jobs." like i said, your mileage may vary, its not for everyone even then its more of a discipline issue than anything and those people were likely so close to the edge of eternally fucking off anyway that the lowest common denominator was going to come into their life at some point inevitably anyway and they were going to eternally fuck off so yeah get your shit together before you add daily doses of a mild psychedelic
guitarded_chuck 10.22.18	evok knows how to do it i very very rarely smoke anytime before working all day spending 1-2 hrs in the gym walking my dog and doing whatever chores need done, this is the key in my experience to not having it mess with productivity
THVRTVVN 10.22.18	see smoking before work/gym is the only way i can do those things so tbh fuck you
Egarran 10.22.18	If it gets legal here, I'm going to miss the civil disobedience. How will I stick it to the man? I'm probably gonna have to move on to meth.
THVRTVVN 10.22.18	meth text the
Egarran 10.22.18	Are you high right now?
osmark86 10.22.18	quit doing it myself mainly because I didn't enjoy it anymore. as people here point out, do it if you feel it isn't obstructing with anything in your life but if you are having doubts then listen to those doubts. someone else's experience isn't going to be yours so you have to decide for yourself what you think is best for you.
ZombieToyDuck 10.22.18	other alternative I see unmentioned is to consider looking into vaporizing weed (if you have access to medical stuff that is). They make strains to help with focus and what not I believe. They don't make you feel tired but take the edge off if done in moderation. You can also look into CBD oil and vape that because it's the same kind of deal, doesn't make you all sleepy and tired.
Egarran 10.22.18	You could stop, but then again, life is meaningless and suffering is unavoidable.
Sinternet 10.22.18	tbh weed used to give me panic attacks so i stick to acid or shrooms instead, and i rarely do that anyway everyone i know is on ket these days, kinda tempted
Relinquished 10.22.18	"if youre fucking up in life its almost for sure a discipline issue that is separate from cannabis and you're projecting an excuse onto it" 100% this. I got into weed shortly after I was working on martial art discipline and instruction to keep my ass grounded and guided. I knew what was more important even if I had a bit too much indulgence for the sake of enhancing art and experience.
Relinquished 10.22.18	"You could stop, but then again, life is meaningless and suffering is unavoidable." also this lol learn to cope without crutches, that inner strength to overcome feels like sex except you're penetrating self-perpetuated mental barriers with your steel dick of will
guitarded_chuck 10.22.18	ftr cannabis/psychs are a great tool for breaking said mental barriers the doors of perception, as aldous huxley described it that paranoia you feel, thats just the widening of your field of vision in terms of the existence that was already occurring around you, and with that greater awareness comes greater power / ability to influence existence to your favor better to know than not, unless you want to revel in blissful ignorance, but i always quote socrates on that topic- "there is only one good, knowledge, and one evil, ignorance"
guitarded_chuck 10.22.18	that said if these things ever become less of a tool and more of a crutch/escape, yeah step away and take time getting it together
Relinquished 10.22.18	time to close up shop it seems /thread
guitarded_chuck 10.22.18	;]
JayEnder 10.22.18	Damn I woke up to a huge discussion here. Good shit boys. Can’t wait to read all this haha.
JayEnder 10.22.18	Lucca I can definitely relate to the anxiety in social situations thing. The only time I’m comfortable when I’m baked off my ass is when I’m with trusted friends or just by myself. Getting too high then going out into public makes me feel like everyone is noticing my bloodshot eyes and judging me, ya know typical anxiety shit. For some reason though, when I smoke before a concert/movie I lose all that anxiety of “oh shit I’m in a crowd” because I realize nobody is paying attention to me.
anarchistfish 10.22.18	i haven't quit but i was definitely smoking too much and i've reduced about 80% over the last year (still smoking most days). it's a balance. I have thought about quitting tho cos it does affect your day to day functioning and emotions more than you realise
hal1ax 10.22.18	"but if youre fucking up in life its almost for sure a discipline issue that is separate from cannabis and you're projecting an excuse onto it" i don't necessarily agree with this. being undisciplined isn't always diffuse. in fact it can be quite often focalized to stimuli to which you are vulnerable. i, for example, have always been able to moderate everything in my life except for opiates. i know quite a few people actually who are like that with weed too.. they just can't use it without abusing it so they just avoid it. i think sometimes you're right tho it can be just a pervasive lack of discipline but not always.
guitarded_chuck 10.22.18	yeah but again then the issue is an inability to moderate use and stems completely from willpower, opiates arent a good comparable as they create real change in brain chemistry i.e. physical addiction, otherwise i agree
hal1ax 10.22.18	Eh I see what you’re saying. Weed still acts on the nucleus accumbens / reward pathways but to a much lesser extent. Agreed
Valkoor952 10.22.18	If you are under 25 you should not be smoking weed on a regular basis.
bloc 10.22.18	Never smoked in my life, don't plan on ever doing so.
henryChinaski 10.22.18	Yes.
Egarran 10.22.18	Every stoner I know wants a 2 week holiday in a wellstocked house out in nature and enough weed to be pleasantly high the entire time. Maybe you should go for this instead.
Relinquished 10.22.18	yea and then what travel eases the worry but never the problem
claygurnz 10.22.18	I smoke a fair bit and I agree with what Chuck says, you gotta save it for a treat at the end of the day, or do it less. Personally, I only smoke if at least one other person is doing so as well-doing it alone got kinda boring for me quick, but hey everyone's different. It makes me very unproductive, hence why I do it about an hour or two before bed. I could not and would never do it before work/gym etc.
bloc 10.22.18	The only problem solver is the revolver
guitarded_chuck 10.22.18	agreed, revolver, the beatles first weed album
claygurnz 10.22.18	Listen to She Said She Said while blazed it'll change your life
Valkoor952 10.22.18	"Never smoked in my life, don't plan on ever doing so" why
Egarran 10.22.18	We value his opinion. If someone offers me weed, I shall remember bloc's wisdom.
bloc 10.22.18	Please also remember my other wisdoms...
MO 10.22.18	I used to smoke a shit load. then I got a job and house and yea I have no desire to smoke anymore, mostly no time. I have nothing against it, just not for me really anymore. I'll puff once in a while but I'm mostly over it
JoeTex 10.22.18	Set a quit date; smoke til then, try to taper
GmemberKills 10.22.18	stop smoking it. start eating it
Valkoor952 10.22.18	real question is y'all eat shrooms ? or drop some acid
hal1ax 10.22.18	who here as shoved a tampon steeped in vodka in their asshole????????
sonictheplumber 10.22.18	they were smokin weed for rubber soul too dude, revolver is really the acid record
Egarran 10.22.18	Shrooms is a good point. They can cure you of addiction. Among other things.
JayEnder 10.22.18	Gmember I was considering switching to edibles but the last time me and my buddy made brownies I ate 2 and it didn’t do much really. We loaded those mfs and still... I get a good bake on from smoking though.
Hawks 10.22.18	No.
JoeTex 10.22.18	Mary Jane, Mary Jane, Mary Jane / You're always in my brain and you help me ease the pain
Relinquished 10.22.18	yea you didn’t put enough if u aten2
platnum 10.22.18	I go to a shop to get edibles Love muh brownies
guitarded_chuck 10.22.18	"they were smokin weed for rubber soul too dude, revolver is really the acid record" ye i kind was thinking along these lines after i posted that well i think the acid is more apparent on sgt pepper + mmt
guitarded_chuck 10.22.18	"Shrooms is a good point. They can cure you of addiction. " yup anyone who smokes cigarettes i dare you to eat an eight of mushrooms and see if you ever smoke again, about the most healthy thing you could possibly do in such a situation really, add a decade to your life
guitarded_chuck 10.22.18	https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/bmvdnm/how-psychedelic-drugs-psilocybin-lsd-could-help-treat-addiction info on the studies around this so people dont think this is all hypothetical stoner talk or something
TheSpaceMan 10.22.18	'yup anyone who smokes cigarettes i dare you to eat an eight of mushrooms and see if you ever smoke again' living counter example baby it can help though
TheSpaceMan 10.23.18	also @chuck not sure if you were responding to me but the emphasis on my first comment was 'religiously'
Nomos2 10.23.18	Sounds like you're ready to. I could never, though. About 11 years strong. Half of that time I've been smoking several times daily. I have some pretty bad chronic anxiety and I find it's the perfect medicine for me. Cheaper than booze, easy to vape, makes music listening experiences more immersive. If you aren't using it to treat anything then taking long breaks can be a good thing.
JayEnder 10.23.18	I think i’m gonna stick with moderation for now. Quitting cold turkey just isn’t gonna happen with my current job being so stressful. Thanks for all your insight guys
Egarran 10.23.18	If you quit, maybe you would build up enough angry energy to improve your workplace. Especially if it's a post office.
guitarded_chuck 10.23.18	" living counter example baby" yeah n=1 isnt useful john hopkins study shows 80% success rate https://hub.jhu.edu/2014/09/11/magic-mushrooms-smoking/
GeorgeWBush 10.23.18	I agree with Chuck to a degree. I always smoke after I’ve gotten all my shit done and/or I’m friends. I’ve found it helpful to take breaks when I’m in a particularly shitty emotional sitution. It definitely helps with my general passive anxiety, but I don’t want it to become a crutch.
Egarran 10.23.18	If you're hurt, you need a crutch. Be glad it's not alcohol.
Relinquished 10.23.18	ok yea sure a crutch could be awesome for that time of healing but better to choose something not habit-forming if possible
Storm In A Teacup 10.23.18	loading up some Barry White right now
guitarded_chuck 10.23.18	no crutches, face your fears though i think automatically calling regular cannabis use a crutch is some stupid stigma shit since it has medical use would you call someone using SSRIs a crutch, pain killers for chronic pain, appetite stimulation for cancer patients
Storm In A Teacup 10.23.18	I don't even think about this kind of shit
JayEnder 10.23.18	Anxiety is a bitch Storm

Storm In A Teacup 10.23.18	I get anxiety or just act awkward sometimes but the best thing and maybe only thing you can do about that is get over it and be you man, ain't nobody can be you, but you. (credits to Kevin Hart)
guitarded_chuck 10.23.18	some people cant just "get over it" and have neurochemistry issues
Storm In A Teacup 10.23.18	I was there at one point but eventually I ate enough mushrooms
guitarded_chuck 10.23.18	then your issue was more to do with psychology than brain chemistry
Storm In A Teacup 10.23.18	Im no alchemist hands down
Storm In A Teacup 10.23.18	I grew up in a state full of Alex Jones supporters, psychology issues were bound to happen.

beefshoes 10.23.18	It's a waste of money to me at least, but the same goes for alcohol. Not everyone is the same and in the same situation, I can definitely empathize with why people choose to do it as a means of relaxing and escaping stressful environments (for some, it can be the only way to do so), but if you quit, you could have more money for other stuff, to put back and save (hopefully), and it is always fun to explore new hobbies.
JoeTex 10.23.18	stamp collecting is in

Storm In A Teacup 10.23.18	Chuck it's our fault for me mentioning Jones and you Trump
Nomos2 10.23.18	Money shouldn't even be in the picture here though. If the offset gained by quitting pot is a small windfall then it shouldn't have been bought in the first place (unless it was 100% necessary, at which point, don't quit) I smoke several times daily and at least once daily with my wife. We were spending ~$100/month on buds. Now that we're doing 50/50 buds and vape pens, that amount has gone way down. I don't make a ton of money, but in the current grand scheme for me that's not a small amount, but certainly justifiable. Good one Guitarded too. It's only a crutch if someone is lazily using it to distract themselves from something they can easily fix or should otherwise mend straight-on. Which I'm sure is the case a lot of the time. But for a lot of regular users, there is something deeper they're medicating. I didn't even truly realize I was suppressing the irritability and anger and resentment that's a side effect of my always-on anxiety until years into smoking and after I gained more insight and found it easier to dissect my thought patterns and their origins. This just wasn't the normal irritability that comes from going cold turkey. Anyway, pretty fucking dope that it's legal recreationally here in Canada now. Prices haven't skyrocketed unless you were buying in massive bulk and getting a volume discount from your dealer. Still buying online from my usual medical site so I haven't gotten to check out the stores yet. I imagine they're much like the casual dispensaries in Vancouver I've been too. Edibles still not allowed here but I get them from the medical site. It's really need to see the stigma wash away even more than it was, just all of the sudden.
JoeTex 10.23.18	waht's this medical site?
Nomos2 10.23.18	Any old dispensary with a site basically. Years ago I took the medical card I got from BC via a "doctor" (Me in booth to remote "doctor" on iPad screen: "I have back problems". iPad Man: "Ok, prescribed!") and went to ZenLeaf Delivery and signed up using that card. They accepted it and I've been getting edibles from them ever since with 3 day shipping. Pretty neato. Though I heard of many sites more recently not requiring a medical card, just ID, I wonder if those ones can even ship edibles/concentrate. "CanadaWeedDispensary.ca" is another good one but I don't know if they still do edibles after the 17th. Before the 17th, I got edibles/concentrate from CWD but am unsure of their current status on that now.
JoeTex 10.23.18	damn you got it made
Nomos2 10.23.18	Compared to the "get in the back of my car and rip me off for an eighth" days, sure do! It's nice to be able to hop online and pick out some high THC vaporizer refills, medicated gummies, and a "flight" of uppers and have it shipped officially through Canada Post. We've come a long way hahaha. My biggest complaint over legalization is that all of the stores are hidden downtown and that's a 30 minute drive, but I also live in the city with the most stores in the province with the most stores in Canada. Fucking lucky. Some provinces got the shit end of the stick. Which province you in?
wham49 10.23.18	there is always a time and place, just make it a treat instead of an all day thing, you'll still find the groove
JoeTex 10.23.18	United States. we're on our way but some states draggin their feet. legalize it already.
TheSpaceMan 10.23.18	"yeah n=1 isnt useful" lol reword your dares bro i wasnt in it for the stats i was in it for the challenge
kevbogz 10.23.18	fuck no pussy
TheSpaceMan 10.23.18	for the sake of a real conversation, i dont think its that taking a large amount of any psychedelic suddenly makes you quit. it just helps you meditate on the idea and find the will within your center self. still would require a form of therapy and you would have to go in trying to conquer that shit. really theres no get rich scheme out there imo you get what you put in and addictions a demon that you gotta fight every hour
Nomos2 10.24.18	Dang I feel bad for you Americans now. Socially acceptable most places, legalized in few states, federally illegal. Just bizarre. I was in Washington the first day it was legalized at the only legal store and that was my first experience buying legally, so it sucks to see your country lagging behind so much.
Storm In A Teacup 10.24.18	"get in the back of my car and rip me off for an eighth days" those were the worst. one of the first sacks i bought was a nickelbag of shake for $20. now I can get a half ounce of close to medicinal quality for $100 or even have people from Texas or Kansas make trips to bring from Colorado but then that's like $240-$280 an ounce when that happens.

TheSpaceMan 10.24.18	eighths for $60 i remember the days
DamnVanne 10.24.18	Certainly the best thing about living geographically close to so many juggalos is that the gypsy salad has, for my entire adult life, been extraordinarily cheap and usually of incredible quality.
Storm In A Teacup 10.24.18	"eighths for $60 i remember the days" yup. $50 is too much now. if you're just getting an 8th then $40 is reasonable but I'd rather just spend the $100-$130 on the half.
Nomos2 10.24.18	TheSpaceMan is right, it is more about the changes that follow a sudden shift in your world view when you dose liberally on mushrooms. I'm certainly a different person than I was before I had my first meaningful, revealing trip.
Keyblade 10.24.18	saw an article today that said that buying weed with a credit card in Canada would be dangerous if u ever have plans to go to the US as u can potentially be barred from the country for life thanks to the patriot act. jheeze
hal1ax 10.24.18	that's wild
hal1ax 10.24.18	and ye agree with space on psychedelics. they for sure can rattle perceptions ajar and sometimes that;s really what it takes to get through addiction... just a super unadulterated, honest self-aware look at your life.. but they're also not going to be a panacea. just puts you in a more opportune position mentally to quit i think
Feather 10.24.18	If you are questioning something like this, then the answer is yes because it is clearly impacting you enough to consider. Same goes for drinking too much or basically any drug for that matter ... really considering anything at all. If you are thinking its causing a negative impact then it probably is.
dtsanchez 10.24.18	Don‘t do drugs if you also could not do drugs. It‘s a lot healthier.
Egarran 10.24.18	"Money shouldn't even be in the picture here though. " I thought you were going to mention that marijuana is easy to grow and one plant can sustain you for months.
THVRTVVN 10.24.18	lol @ not knowing yr dealer well enough to get the plug plug
Relinquished 10.24.18	forreal though become the plug get your liberation with a side of paranoia
Egarran 10.24.18	As a side note, I just heard a radio show with three women talking about the pain of having a son addicted to weed. Someone called in and said the wise words: "You cannot change his behavior with anger and condemnation. You can only change them by changing yourself. Be vulnerable and honest about your feelings. Be a friend who listens, and show them that their behavior makes you sad." They didn't pick up on this at all, and moved straight on to how annoying it is when role models smoke in public. "They're ruining my efforts to make him stop!"
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	nomos knows how to do it, i got a med card now too so i dont have to pay inflated gov prices and can get edibles FUCK THE MAN AMIRITE its sick its legal though the stigma is evaporating so fast its palpable
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	"for the sake of a real conversation" 80% for the sake of objective analysis n=1 is not useful i know sometimes anecdotal subjective discussion is fun but we have data on this which means there is no need for subjective anecdotes "i believe the earth to be flat" was a valid proposition until it wasnt
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	also if america doesnt want my tourist money because i bought weed then the country can go absolutely fuck itself
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	"just a super unadulterated, honest self-aware look at your life.. but they're also not going to be a panacea. " that very experience is enough to cause a "panacea" 80% of the time eighty
Nomos2 10.24.18	Hah screw that Egar People who have lots of space and time and are also handy love to say how easy it is to grow (and light...ventilate...trim...harvest) especially since that's legal here too. Some people like me enjoy paying the negligible premium to have all that done for me lol
hal1ax 10.24.18	na that experience alone is not a cure all... it's what the fuck u choose to do with that experience. i've been taking acid with friends my whole life i've seen it work and not work for addiction. i haven't seen 80% lol but ya it can work no doubt
hal1ax 10.24.18	no experience alone is going to change behavior a priori. has to be impactful in such a way to be processed and integrated perennially. you can have an epiphanic experience and do nothing with it.
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	yeah but its been shown in studies that it does work 80% of the time so your lol nah is about as dumb as the aforementioned people still clinging onto flat earth theories when you get information that has been obtained via the scientific method objectively it is irrational to deny it as anything but fact even if it bruises the ego by going against what you thought was an accurate worldview
Storm In A Teacup 10.24.18	"also if america doesnt want my tourist money because i bought weed then the country can go absolutely fuck itself" As an American I have no problem with this statement.
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	the previous conversation was regarding nicotine addiction psilocybin specifically but this is more relevant to your issue: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/02791072.2018.1447175?journalCode=ujpd20 At 48 hours following ibogaine administration, withdrawal and craving scores were significantly lowered in comparison to baseline: 78% of patients did not exhibit objective clinical signs of opioid withdrawal, 79% reported minimal cravings for opioids, and 68% reported subjective withdrawal symptoms in the mild range.
hal1ax 10.24.18	why are u calling me dumb? because i don't think the research your citing has empirical validity? because it doesn't? because there's a slew of confounding variables in the way of attaining hard data on that? what sample size did they use? was sobriety retained? did these people have a history of pscyh use? off what drugs? i was never laughing at u so idk why you're being such a little pussy
hal1ax 10.24.18	i also like how me disagreeing with you is tantamount to believing in flat earth theory lol. such a little fucking bitch
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	why are you asking me these questions when you could read the study yourself you LiTLTe PusSy
hal1ax 10.24.18	ok so how long did abated craving / withdrawal last for? was sobriety retained? for how long? indefinitely ?
Storm In A Teacup 10.24.18	shit's getting real
hal1ax 10.24.18	tell me dude u seem like an expert i'd rather get it from u
hal1ax 10.24.18	the guy who is always calling people overly sensitive and shit and talking about "logic" and "science" and good argumentation skills calls me dumb out of literally nowhere for not agreeing with his study lol.
hal1ax 10.24.18	absolute fuckin pansy
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	you in withdraw right now dude?
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	pussy bitch pansy lmao
hal1ax 10.24.18	haha might as well be
hal1ax 10.24.18	ill read the study later i have to go to work in a sec
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	im not offended by your unwillingness or inability to read studies on your own and then to in turn consider their findings regardless or whether or not they align with the worldview you held previous to said reading, im just calling you dumb for it let’s all take a moment to consider which of us is ACTUALLY offended here pussy bitch pansy go score some dope and chill bro
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	oh now you’re going to pretend to be all reasonable fucking pathetic
hal1ax 10.24.18	lol
hal1ax 10.24.18	you're pining on the fact i called u some names and didn't address anything i actually said. also there being one small sample study that supports a view does not make said view axiomatic. and i just think it's funny that the guy who prides himself on good argument and logic lashes out at me first when we were having a civil conversation
J() Alexander 10.24.18	I left this thread at the right moment.
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	you admitedly didnt READ let alone address the study specifically and are fucking REEEing at the prospect of its validity the fact you fail to self-evaluate the fact you are indeed the one being irrational here is also: dumb maybe now you see the irony in calling me a bitch pussy pansy, the closed-mindedness and sensitivity you are displaying here the isn't exactly the model of sensibility
hal1ax 10.24.18	na i opened it and it is indeed a small sample size. have not read methodology yet tho
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	honestly i interpret your reaction to all this as your ego clinging onto what would be a real analysis of yourself and decisions such that you could overcome your own issues and let go psychedelics are objectively a useful tool for this process, but it requires an openness and willingness to face oneself and make a change, it is not a 100% fool-proof solution you are correct i would be willing to bet that though space is quick to put his hand up as one who did not receive freedom from addictions from psychedelics, he probably did not go into the experience/generally doesnt have a strong desire to not consume nicotine you can lead a horse to water but you cant make it drink you can take psychedelics and face your ego but you cant make a change if you dont want to, are too scared to, or dont actively try to do so
JayEnder 10.24.18	You guys need to chill.
hal1ax 10.24.18	Fully agree with that
J() Alexander 10.24.18	Whoa.
JayEnder 10.24.18	More discussion less arguing would be awesome. This thread was fantastic until you guys started keyboard warrior fighting. Please keep it civil.
hal1ax 10.24.18	Yes the communism / catpialism arguing prior was super topical and fantastic lol
MebalZahari 10.24.18	Agreed. Keep it civil
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	yes more people need to learn to have challenging conversations while maintaining civility, i forgive hal here but let it be an example for anyone reading it having one's conventions put into question should never be taken personally
hal1ax 10.24.18	Yep I have a horrible temper. Sorry bub
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	np sorry i got dirty with it too
Storm In A Teacup 10.24.18	one little joke about alex jones and this happens...
JayEnder 10.24.18	We all gotta let out some aggression now and then c:
MebalZahari 10.24.18	Save the fighting for the octagon.
Egarran 10.24.18	There's an important lesson here: Quit weed before you become as high strung as Chuck. He is not an isolated incident.
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	important lesson: abort your pregnancy so you dont raise edgequeens like egarran He is not an isolated incident.
MebalZahari 10.24.18	Chuck & Egarran settle it in the Octagon
guitarded_chuck 10.24.18	ill advised
TheSpaceMan 10.24.18	i was literally just responding to "i dare you to take shrooms and smoke cigs after" cause like okay happens everytime i do also everything you guys said about it not being an addiction off-switch is a restatement of what i said so idk whats going on who are we arguing against ):
Storm In A Teacup 10.25.18	"a species at war with itself is doomed"
Egarran 10.25.18	The problem with chuck's suggestion is it's purely hypothetical as no one here is able to get pregnant. But really, weed can make you paranoid and make you take things a little bit too seriously. I know, it's mindblowing info, but just be aware.
osmark86 10.25.18	"weed can make you paranoid and make you take things a little bit too seriously. I know, it's mindblowing info, but just be aware." WHO SAID THAT??!! GTFO OF MY HEAD!!
guitarded_chuck 10.25.18	if youre a filthy casual weed making me paranoid ended over a decade ago
guitarded_chuck 10.25.18	but really, having your grandiose presumptions regarding a strangers persona over the internet via generalizations created from their posting be incorrect is hard for some of the more closed-minded among us to understand I know, it's mindblowing info, but just be aware
guitarded_chuck 10.25.18	"also everything you guys said about it not being an addiction off-switch is a restatement of what i said so idk whats going on who are we arguing against" i was never arguing against you i was just making it clear to anyone reading that n=1 is not useful
osmark86 10.25.18	for a self-professed champion of weed-usage you seem pretty unchill dude
guitarded_chuck 10.25.18	noted, truly
guitarded_chuck 10.25.18	i never "self-professed" any such thing nor ever claimed to be a "chill" person but lets continue with the presumption game i am consciously an extremely assertive person and if that doesnt sit well with you well frankly thats too fucking bad
osmark86 10.25.18	thank you, just be aware
guitarded_chuck 10.25.18	and be aware that youre a whiny ass pussy
osmark86 10.25.18	have a hug motherfucker
guitarded_chuck 10.25.18	lets pick another random user from this thread and get user osmarks brilliant thorough character analysis
osmark86 10.25.18	ok but I think you'll get your points across a little better if you tone down the assertiveness a little. do what you will with that.
guitarded_chuck 10.25.18	snowflakes need not apply so sorry ive offended you back to your mothers teat
osmark86 10.25.18	have it your way mate
Storm In A Teacup 10.25.18	i volunteer
TheSpaceMan 10.25.18	I mean you said there's no need for subjective anecdotes which would only ever apply in an arguments sake, but I feel ya
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	yes because n=1 is not useful, that is not arguing that is stating an objective fact
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	mfw you can’t even state statical facts in 2018 without multiple people being offended this is what happens when you raise an entire generation with zero education in science and reason
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	chuck: “the sky is blue” space: “why are you arguing with me but i feel ya”
TheSpaceMan 10.26.18	Says the dude who claimed statistics from a scientific method case provides cold hard undeniable fact. That's like the most objectively wrong take on science ever and anyone 'raised on science' would know the distinction between supported theory and "look at these numbers it makes this theory FACT" . Difference is I don't give a fuck enough to pretend my scientific background is above people on sputnikmusic.com
Demon of the Fall 10.26.18	I should've read this thread a lot earlier, very informative (actually just amusing).
TheSpaceMan 10.26.18	but okay now you roped me into getting agitated for no reason so my bad, if you're willing to take a breath with me, you misinterpreted what i was getting at and its probably because of my poor wording. i'm legitimately wondering why you don't think an anecdote is relevant if we supposedly aren't arguing, i'm not offended / saying that my anecdote trumps that study, i just think you killed a conversation is all
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	"statistics from a scientific method case provides cold hard undeniable fact" yes dear and i didnt kill the conversation seeing as it went on for another 100 posts, i was denying the validity of your n=1 anecdote
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	"YOU MADE ME MAD" no dear you made yourself mad https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N_of_1_trial
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	for the record since it apparently must be made crystal clear for you im not saying your anecdote isnt "relevant", that's your quote, i'm saying it is not useful in terms of representing the probability of effectivity in a population let me know when you get there
TheSpaceMan 10.26.18	That's not true though, there's an agreed upon distinction that the scientific method only provides support to a theory or hypothesis. Nothing arrived via scientific method is called fact. And there's validity in an anecdote it's just outside the scope of supporting an argument. And apparently there isn't one, so we all good here
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	and also im not ~~~~pretending my scientific background is above people of sputnik~~~~~ if anyone else has a masters in science here raise their hand, not that i believe education is a definite indicator of knowledge or ability, thats you projecting
TheSpaceMan 10.26.18	That's a pretty self contradicting post lol
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	its accepted as fact if the trial is run again and again with the same outcome sure with data achieved via the scientific method so here like hal pointed out the data set is relatively small and the experiment needs to be run on a much broader scale before it can be considered 100% fact (the 80% success rate) thankfully the FDA has seen these numbers and is now rushing to get more studies done on this topic as well as the use of mushrooms for depression
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	"Psychedelic psilocybin therapy for depression granted Breakthrough Therapy status by FDA" https://newatlas.com/psilocybin-magic-mushrooms-depression-fda-breakthrough-therapy/56928/ literally just came out yesterday
TheSpaceMan 10.26.18	There is never a case in scientific study that a trial leads to a cold fact, no matter the sample size or success rate. Science is built on the basis that everything needs to be challenged and can be disproven. Think of all the studies after Newton that seemed to confirm gravity is a force, and then Einstein came along with relativity and found argument against a once known "fact" that seemed so concrete it put planes in the sky but is now largely viewed obsolete Regardless, I agree there's benefits in psychs for addiction therapy and I agree a single subject sample size isn't indicative to much and since you agree my anecdote was swell and real then we are all on the same page and it's pretty chill
JWT155 10.26.18	Just saw this thread, I don't think there's anything wrong inherently with smoking weed, but particpating in anything that is holding you back and causing you to be content and less ambitious is probably not an ideal activity to be particpating in. That being said plenty of sucessful people smoke weed, just like alcohol it's all about how you treat the substance and if you can afford the lifestyle in terms of finacially, ethically and spiritually.
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	newtons idea that gravity was a force was a theory and only considered as such because no one could explain the mechanism behind the thing the theory confirmed the mathematics behind it, the hypothesis like you said and the fact the math checked out 100% of the time meant that it was considered to be 100% accurate, a fact no we're not on the same page at all because this "there's no faxxxxx IRL" bullshit is the same postmodernist retardation being handed out ad nauseam in the arts fields and it is worth noting that it is indeed complete bullshit you can go back to your boxed in world of ignorance if you like as you inevitably will but im telling you you are off the mark here, take it or leave it
TheSpaceMan 10.26.18	First off, Newtons theory wasn't/isnt always accurate, and that's how it led to Einstiens pursuit of relativity. Secondly, if you think I'm saying facts don't exist in this world then you're just looking for things to argue over. It is infinitely more ignorant to think anything in science has arrived at a fact. I really don't know how you can't see this, it's the basis of all of what you have an apparent master's in.
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	the math space the math itself was and continues to be 100% accurate 100% fact
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	if a trial is run x=~∞ with the same outcome it considered to be 100-~∞% fact in science you arguing that because science is open to correction as is inherently built into the thing means that even though in the above type of scenario/experiment something is considered 100-~∞% fact means it isnt technically a 100% fact is indeed looking for an argument but anyway we've reached a conclusion i think
Snake. 10.26.18	"catchiest album of the year change my mind" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOZx5T1zDf0 this one song has more bop than that whole album three times over
AnimalsAsSummit 10.26.18	if you think it'll help not to smoke, then do it. i like smoking (all the time) but probably would consider cutting back like you if i didn't have anxiety issues.
TheSpaceMan 10.26.18	I find this interesting and worth discussing so I don't mind going further into it. 'if a trial is run x=~∞ with the same outcome it considered to be 100-~∞% fact in science ' No I strongly disagree, all experiments lead to evidence and nothing else. Statistics is a model of reality but never objective correlation to reality. Also, of course Newtons math added up right, his equation was simple arithmetic
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	you can disagree but you disagree with the consensus of the scientific community of which i am part of and side with the only people who today claim that when a sound methodology chews out the same results with repeated trials it does not tell us a fundamental fact of nature are the postmodernists, a group which the scientific community is now in a constant battle with and no one takes seriously outside of gender studies classrooms and the like the debate ends here for me
Egarran 10.26.18	"you disagree with the consensus of the scientific community of which i am part of and side with" Amazing.
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	thanks what community are you part of egarran, managers of mcdonalds
Egarran 10.26.18	Oh I thought you said the debate ended there for you.
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	is that a yes
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	no? wal mart door greeters ?
guitarded_chuck 10.26.18	welfare receivers?
TheSpaceMan 10.26.18	The scientific community agrees with what I'm saying though, there's huge emphasis on support over proof. Proofs only exist in mathematics. and I am also part of the scientific community
Solipsist 10.31.18	I've been a daily smoker for ten years straight. I'm on my 3rd week of total abstinence and I dont feel any different tbh. Almost all of the problems people have with cannabis stem from its illegality, not from the substance itself. Just dont smoke before doing important shit and you will be fine.
TheSpaceMan 10.31.18	mileage varies, imo its effects are grossly over exaggerated by non-smokers and under-exaggerated by smokers. i think most of the negative effects can be self assessed and are mental-based, unlike something like cigarettes where the physical side effects creep up. there are some physical effects though.

JayEnder 11.06.18	Sites broken idk what happened to my last multi paragraph comment but like I WANTED TO SAY, thanks for the awesome discussion guys. Wish I could reply to each and every one of your inputs but I’d be here all day.
osmark86 11.06.18	yeah that happens sometimes oddly enough
JayEnder 11.06.18	It’s weird I know. And osmark it’s hard to have fun around here when all we have is a bowling alley and a movie theatre. Not even a strip mall or some shit. I should try the library or something idk
Egarran 11.06.18	"because you’ll never truly learn to survive without embracing and overcoming all sides of life" Considering sober people, this is a very naive analysis.

hobblepot 11.06.18	recent studies have shown it does seriously affect your memory, and extended use can cause breathing problems and severe paranoia in older age. my ex girlfriend had two relatives who smoked the stuff most of their lives, they couldn't remember much of anything, wheezed like someone who smokes 20 a day, and they literally had tin foil hats. they were constantly afraid that "they" were listening in and reading their thoughts. I wish this was a joke, but the 3 times I visisted them it was honestly depressing. my best friends auntie used to smoke it, she won't even let members of her family into her home because she thinks they're the FBI coming to get her. Smoking it on occasion, sure, but everyday or even every week, it's unhealthy. It's unhealthy even on occasion, smoke is smoke no matter what its origin. Plus, no sober person wants to listen to someone ramble on about how great they feel and how it's all natural
guitarded_chuck 11.06.18	on the contrary no healthy successful balanced user wants to hear the overblown half-truth horror stories from squares
Egarran 11.06.18	And then you learn the alternative to bad memory was dying from an overdose. Nah the health angle isn't going to work very well against weed.
guitarded_chuck 11.06.18	it certainly impacts short term memory but only in the short term, comes back quickly upon cessation, zero permanent effect and the smoking argument is mute because theres other was to intake it it can exacerbate mental issues sure so if one is a paranoid person it can make them more-so although it also simply enhances one's creative thinking which can increase their awareness of things which if balanced can make them more aware of certain aspects of their environment that could be interpreted by someone else as being overly paranoid it's been shown that the rates of schizophrenia among people who used cannabis vs dont are the exact same, it doesn't cause psychosis, but it can bring it on or make it worse IF you are already predisposed

DDDeftoneDDD 12.20.18	I smoked weed and... I wrapped off a chewing gum, put the gum in the garbage and the paper on my mouth terrible
Nomos2 12.20.18	So it's a month and some late but I finally tried a legal dispensary in Alberta. Sold out of most stock, like 15 strains left, most indica/hybrids which is not what I wanted. Price was all $12.00 and up per gram. No bulk discounts like you'd get online. No edibles or concentrates either. Can't complain though, it was a short drive away and a neat thing to try for the first time when I didn't want to wait for my usual medical stuff to ship from online. Then I flew to BC and remembered what it was like to have a dispensary on every street corner...one day....one day Alberta.

oltnabrick 05.28.20	Dude, being the only user here who is straight edge is very sad. But again anyone can use their ass as they want, like we say in Spanish
TheArtofTheGanja 05.28.20	It sucked, I only quit cuz I got arrested
oltnabrick 05.28.20	TheArtofTheGanja
TheArtofTheGanja 05.28.20	yeah when I made this account was my peak stoner period
Satellite 05.28.20	5 or so years ago i went through an eighth a week easily, sometimes a quad. it was definitely a problem and i couldn't even tell if i was actually getting high. now i vape/eat maybe once a week and it's so, so much more enjoyable. so don't quit, just cut back a little. make it something you look forward to and not a compulsion that you need to function.
combustion07 05.28.20	I was spending $200+ every 2 weeks for a long time and I quit kind of unwillingly and it wasn't too rough. Recently I started smoking again but O keep it to just a few joints a week or some puffs from a pen on rare occasions. It's been nice. I recommend it
Satellite 05.28.20	my pax 3 has been a real game changer. i don't smoke at all anymore. just vapor (from flower, i don't do cartridges) and edibles.
DDDeftoneDDD 05.28.20	nope
TheSpaceMan 05.28.20	ah yes, the thread where chuck went "I AM SCIENCE" and proceeded to prove he is not
osmark86 05.28.20	"let me tell you how it is. no you're wrong and I'm always right lil bitch." a charming man he is that chuck one.

TheSpaceMan 05.28.20	*near

Satellite 05.28.20	123. i was ~6 months sober before covid. it's good to be back on the winning team.
Satellite 05.28.20	123 on the booze. crack is for special occasions only.
TheSpaceMan 05.28.20	I haven't smoked a cigarette in about 3 months. longest in a while!
Emim 05.28.20	How much mj do you inject in a single sitting?
OmairSh 05.28.20	Its not easy to quit if its a daily habit, but health wise its important. I'm sure you're already doing this, but maybe find a balance between flower and edibles for a start?
OmairSh 05.28.20	Woot woot Spacey! That's amazing congrats
TheSpaceMan 05.28.20	thanks dude!
osmark86 05.28.20	You go spaceman!
JWT155 05.28.20	Nicely done dude! I used to chew and I haven't for about 3 months as well.
