What up?

Iv notived recently that even after my high has passed, weed seems to affect my emotions and perceptions. Iv always been a bit of a stress head but since my tolerance has increased Iv felt more chilled in general, even if Im not baked. I dont smoke all that much at the moment. Also, my senses seem a little stronger, they always seem that way when Im baked but now my hearing seems better and my sense of smell especially seems stronger. Everything seems funnier too. I dunno, it just seems that the affects of weed are lasting permanently for me at the moment, not that Im feeling stoned when Im not but Im sure you get what I mean.

Is this happening to anybody else?

This is why I like smoking pot. For me it eases a lot of anxiety and enables me to look at the big picture...

Only prob is, sometimes it nullifies stress in the short term.. things you should be acting on e.g. getting laid, socialising, finding a job etc

Maybe its the crazy storng indicas we get in Australia? lol

If you want to see the differences it really causes, take a break. I'm 8 days sober and it is literally like the curtains of reality being drawn.
 
I found my sense of vision increased greatly (always had excellent vision, beside slight divergence problem) and hearing is pretty good, haven't noticed anything to do with that.
But i've definitely noticed a change in my behavior.
Far more relaxed, and about 6-12months ago something clicked in me, and i suddenly put a greater emphasis on what the other person might be thinking/experiencing/seeing. Essentially, not being too judgmental or making off-the-bat decisions of people/actions.

I have absolutely no regrets in starting, and i believe that it has definitely changed me, for the better ^^.

Agree with DA's short term distraction theory :P I know i'm far less focused within a day or two of a high, even if it was a small night, with a small J :S
 
If I smoke a good amount early in the morning I definetly would say that I don't really return to being completely 'sober'.
 
The last few times I have smoked, I enjoyed the comedown & afterglow more than the peak. I love waking up just a little bit high the next day and being thoughtful and happy. I think it may have influenced my mood significantly the day after that, too. I need more experience with higher doses to see if it will always be this way.

I tend to get weird depression or mood swings once I'm back to baseline. I also feel a little dull in general. It could just be a lack of perspective for all I know. Or maybe I'm just taking life too seriously lol.

But when I'm not at baseline yet, like if I'm still just a little bit high, I agree that it reduces stress/anxiety. And I also agree with the guy who said that it helps you see the bigger picture; I feel that this rings true in my own experience as well, but I'm too lazy/stoned to elaborate at the moment lol.
 
when i am not high i'm normal. I get no depression or anything. The only thing is if I'm really bored I'll get cravings for weed which sucks.
 
I used to get this, but just over a year of daily smoking just made the after glow turn into an after 'dull'. As soon as I come down from the INITIAL high (Even if I'm still stoned as fark), I get bored/no motivation to do anything. I literally don't care if I don't get anything done, I just want to lay around and watch dumb shit. I don't ever achieve anything. Lasts all through the next day until I smoke again.

Makes me anti social too, which is the opposite of what I usually am.

I think smoking weed all the time brings out depression in me.

This is why I'm stopping daily smoking. Day 2 and I'm feeling surprisingly clear headed and energetic.
 
A couple days after I smoke everything looks weird me, like right now it looks like theres little waves moving around on the computer screen. But when Im not high but have smoked recently it does wonders with helping my ADD!
