Has weed helped you ?

Helped me turn boring moments into fun moments, and fun moments into very fun moments.

Also helps me relax and see everything from a different point of view.
 
It has helped with my anxiety and clinical depression. It also helps me eat. Little known fact, weed can be used as a laxative to keep you regular ;)
 
marijuana can help you develop good ideas that stay with you and can help you and really does get your eye on the prize, but its still kind of a motivation/energy drainer because of the simple fact that its a depressant. its best to stay off weed till the time is right, which would be when you have a stapled down life and have some room to breathe, then you can blaze and not have to worry as much about it bringing you down because you can handle it.
 
it opened my mind a little more, i thought differently about things because i used to say "ill never ever touch that," but hey there a first time for everthing
 
Weed has helped me in many, many ways.
Primarily with creativity, energy, and focus.
Weed has helped me deal with some psychological trauma and other issues I experienced (though mushrooms, acid, and ayahuasca helped more).

Sorry OP but you're fucking lying or not high.. the only thing anyone reads when high is a Taco Bell drive thru menu or an internet forum..
Weed makes people lazy... it's a fact, anyone who says otherwise is trying to defend the drug. Weed has helped me relieve stress, and cure boredom.. THAT IS IT. It's an incredibly unmotivating drug, there's a reason why the stereotyped "pothead" is a lazy bum who lives with his parents at 30 and eats doritos all day..

Maybe that is you, but it is certainly not me.
I have been smoking weed for 25 years. (Not every day, and not usually all day, but probably 5000 times in that period.)
I got high multiple times every day while researching and
writing my master's thesis and PhD dissertation.
Graduated with a PhD and higher than a 4.0 GPA.
I enjoy smoking weed and exercising, creating art, music, and poetry, exploring nature...
It gives me energy, mostly mental, but some physical.
I cannot possibly sleep when I am high. I have to wait to come down first.
It most definitely does not make me lazy. In fact, I am much less lazy when I am high.
I don't get the munchies at all - in fact, I cannot eat at all unless I am absolutely starving, and then I only eat extremely healthy food.

Also, weed does not help me with boredom at all -
I have never felt bored in my life, actually.

If anything, it seems to have made your thought processes lazy, and you are making the whopping big assumption that the way it affects you simply has to be the way it affects every single person out there.
You seem to really believe the stereotype, but I would like to point out to you that there are many, many exceptions to every stereotype.

Oh, and I have not eaten Taco Bell or Doritos in at least 20 years.

total bullshit. i attend college and i go high everyday. i do my classwork high, read my textbook high, study high, and live high. I maintain passing grades and I dont think my gpa would be any higher if I didnt smoke weed (I have ADHD) unless I took adderall in the mornings. Although im not always high from weed during these activities i am most of the time which includes lots and lots of reading for information.

I think weed brings out what is already inside the person, for instance if smoking weed makes you lazy then its just bringing the laziness out of you. Weed only makes me sit on the couch and eat potato chips if that was what i planned to do before i started to smoke. think about it.
 
LOLOL ITS THIS THREAD AGAIN. gets me every time.

weed can be good, and weed can be bad. if you cant handle it, then stay away.
 
effects

It works well for hangovers. And it is a social lubricant in the right cirumstances. It is pain relieving. It makes you childish (which is good). I find it gives me confidence that I have to work for. It is kind of an intense psychedelic in that way. I've had more anxious or depressive feelings on weed than on any other psychedelic--aside from maybe home doses of X. It lacks in the definite feeling of centeredness that comes naturally to me on better psychedelics. But it does play tricks on you like other 'entheogens'--calling you to an ego-less consciousness.

Also, especially when combined with caffeine, piracetam, ginseng, or gingko biloba, it helps me 'to see' instead of 'to look.' Just as mescalito teaches. :!

I'm guessing I'll smoke it less as I get older. I don't think it adversely affects college life, which is where I'm at.
 
What hasnt weed done for me. It can help with just about every situation in life and on a daily basis. Its helped me greive, reflect, motivateed me, calm me down, help me sleep, help me wake up, help pull me out of depression. Its my miracle drug, i just need to get a vaporizer so i can cut down the toxicity it has when smoked.
 
opened my mind a bit, gained insight. but for me its had more negatives than positives
 
I guess in the beginning a little bit. Made me "accept" stuff going on and go with the flow of any given situation that I didnt like. later on it helped me control my emotions more and give more thought and feeling into what I do and helped me take spiritual approaches and perspectives to things around me.
 
Set aside psylocibe/mescaline, Sitting out in the middle of the biggest forest in the world (at 4:00am in the morning watching a full moon shooting light rays over the horizon) Cannabis Sativa Has made me realize how insignificant or how significant I (can) be if I set my mind...

I disagree.

Indica = Sit around all day, eat your weight in fast wood.

Sativa = Creative insight, draw, read, do cool shit, and actually get off your ass. But comes with the downside of lots of paranoia etc.

That said I usually prefer indica, since I smoke weed to relax, not to help me get stuff done.

Weed has helped me to deal with stress during hard times, to meet some really awesome people, to calm down and appreciate that everyone's human and I don't need to overreact to people like I used to. It's generally made me a more relaxed person.
