Cannabis - experienced - a reality more native to my mind

Setting: my room; room cleaned, lights dimmed, incense, ate,
Set: stretched,
Dose: 1 bowl vaporized at 180C

T+0 [10:00]
Started inhaling. Body sensations begin. Head-change begins

T+5
Continuing inhaling. Body sensations, odd feelings of movement and tumbling, start to overwhelm me when I zone out. Started music, takes on amazing new qualities, dimensions.

T+10
Done inhaling. Sensations of temperature. Very deep thoughts on sociology. Stream of consciousness repeatedly interrupted and scrambled (unexplainable)

T+15
Music begins to represent itself visually, manifesting itself amidst this display of fantastical perceptions entertwined with my thoughts

T+25
It’s as if there is a winamp equalizer for my brain, and the dials are all separately going up and down randomly. Short term memory spans less than 10 seconds. Opened my programming project. With a new perception I notice many things I missed. Feelings of pressure in my head.

T+1 day [edit: writing about the night before--not still high a day after]
It's sort of like I observe my own thoughts and feelings and sensations, as if I am seperate from them. I'm displaced from "reality" and my mind but at the same time I can see them and analyze them in great detail

At the same time that a window appears between me and everything else, i have a very large affect on my senses by just thinking. The intertwining of visuals and feelings and conceptions is undescribable and just amazing. An entire world opens up, letting you forget the "real" world, and this world has its own rules/laws, interesting features, frightening features, etc, and it's all inside the mind

It feels like "home," a reality native to my mind, and it's a wonderful place to be:)

P.s., I stopped writing the report because I got caught up in programming

lol ... its just weed dude.

so? ive been thinking about writing a trip report about weed for awhile, for ppl who haven't tried it. the only reason why i havent is because its hard to capture the experience in writing. not because its so "out there" but because its a very wierd experience to describe.

this report hardly captures it at all (for someone who hasnt smoked), but i think most smokers can relate to it really well.
 
....

its weed... i dont know what else to say. it seems kind of out of its league here.

weed is pretty amazing and the experience can be very different for different people
i agree. i only smoke weed on the odd occasion and really enjoy it whenever i do. its always fun to try and work out whats actually going on in your head when you're high :)

Weed is a strong psychedelic, unless you smoke it daily, then it looses all intresting aspects and leaves you with demotivation and lack of self-esteem :)
 
i wouldnt call my self demotivated!! And i dont lack self esteem either, i find its a good psychedelic even with daily use
 
^^ how do you drag yourself out of bed in the morning then? cutting down on weed use becomes not so much of an idea as a necessity when you've got a job to get to in the morning (and not be dreggy at either)
 
Vaporizing is much better than smoking imo. There's not really a comedown and you're not burnt for the day after you get high. I mean if you get wicked baked (which is possible with a vaporizer) you still might be a bit more tired afterwards, but it's much different.

Getting up the next morning after sitting in my room taking bong rips and getting up after taking vaporizer rips is a bit different. I've got a less fuzzy/cloudy feeling. Plus a vaporizer wake & bake is like having a cup of coffee. Take a few rips, feel your heart rate slightly increase, get the energetic buzz that the vape can give, and get ready to go on your day in a positive mood.
 
nice report mean.. don't listen to the haters. i find the cannabis experience hardest to put into words myself, even being an almost everyday smoker for the past 3 years. Its really kinda weird... i personally think your pre-existing mental mindframe has more to do with your high than anything.
 
I like to bake almost every night... this has been the case for a few months now, since I used heavily during a thesis write-up period last summer. When I'm off I bake even earlier in the day. Like Shulgin, I can't quite shake the feeling that I am basicalyl just wasting my time. But I suppose weed is addictive. And yes, in the morning it is harder to get up. When I have a day off I don't make it out of bed till 10-12 hours after I got into bed.... but when I need to get up and go to work in the morning, well, then I just do. I have a people job and need to be fully switched on from the moment I get into work, and it's possible - even without coffee (thank you, green tea ;) ) . . .

About weed as a psychedelic, I have to say that I think it is psychedelic, for sure... less so with everyday use though. When I haven't been using for a while and then use it can give me all the paranoia and unease of a heavy acid trip or whatever, but none of the entertaining hallucinations. Perhaps even more paranoia even. Only way to feel comfortable again is some hot tea + honey, some biscuits (or anything with instant release sugar, really), curling up into a foetal ball, closing my eyes, and floating along to beautiful music (music's what is the most enhanced for me, apart from the feeling of being so not grounded and out of the body). Then after a while, I feel just fine, I can get out of that position and do anything, feeling at peace. I only get those intense moments when I haven't been smoking for a while. But they lead me to think that energetically, weed isn't that good for me and that it may be eating holes into my aura... takes some conscious aura-rebuilding/enhancing efforts to counter that. (Yes, I am slightly stoned as I am sharing this :) ) . . .

yea weed can be amazing, even if u DO use hard drugs as well
using it evry day makes it boring for me, and i get grumpy if i do it too early and come down later
even skipping a DAY of use blows me away the next time i toke up

im sure you wont say that after 4 years of daily use, i agree it is only psychedelic of used once a week or less.
 
Saying it's "only weed" is pretty silly, especially since the idea is to write a report that is for people who haven't tried it. When I started smoking, it blew my mind, and many unexplainable and psychedelic events occurred. Hell, I used to get more "out there" from smoking weed than some psychedelics get me now, like 2C-I or 2C-C. If you smoke it everyday, it can still be a useful tool but its psychedelic capabilities are diminished drastically. After 5 1/2 years of daily use, I can sometimes still get a mini-trip out of a good vaporizer hit or 2 or 3, but usually it just provides a mood lift, great body buzz, and relaxation. Although it always stimulates my imagination and free association, as well as makes me want to analyze human behavior. Keep in mind I only smoke once a day now as opposed to a couple of years back when I was nearly always high. At that time, I really wasn't getting anything from it because it had become my "baseline".

But, in response to ketaman, I've been using for over 5 years daily, and my motivation, self-esteem, and mental capabilities are better than they've been in a long time. You just have to be reasonable and responsible.
