I don't miss marijuana because...

^^ Yeah seriously, I've never had any real problems that so many people on BL describe, like serious paranoia, the inability to put together coherant sentences etc. I don't even get the munchies, and I never sit on the couch and watch TV.

I don't understand how so many people have real problems with weed use. I mean, I don't doubt that you're all saying valid things, but I'm saying I don't understand why I don't have these problems.

I miss weed because...

...it takes care of my insomnia.
...it allows me to nod on heroin.
...I havent smoked in three weeks or so.

Ugh. Fucking piss tests.
 
Let's try to keep this discussion related to the effects you don't miss from cannabis, if it concerns the cannabis culture then obviously the topic will be more fit for DC.

MyDoorsAreOpen, what do you prefer? Restricting discussion a bit or moving it into Drug Culture?
 
I used to be a waiter, and I'd smoke all the time before work. I'll put it this way; I had a tolorence going at the time, so I didn't ever feel fried if I was smoking outside of work, but even if I was the smallest bit high, I'd know I was high at work. That's the only time I'd get speech problems, and I know it was because I was anxious as hell. I got used to it eventually, where I could joke around with my tables and not be all uptight.

I think once you smoke pretty regularly, you just don't realize how high you are as much.
 
Blowmonkey, I hate to be a killjoy, but let's restrict it. I made this thread as something I could read when I was fiending since I can't smoke now, and thought others might find that useful too.
 
Man that sucks for you guys, personally I like to smoke and I don't plan on stopping but when I do I might have something else to post.
 
I'm currently toking this summer but am going to have to majorly cut back here so I'm gonna write some stuff down. Last year, I only smoked once every 2 or 3 weeks during the school year and I did better then ever before.

I don't miss marijuana because (and I'm writing this high)

- When I smoke I can get paranoid and freak out over the smallest things
- School comes much easier without herb and I'm so close to finally being done
- I have a way better memory without herb
- I get my homework done on time, I don't have weed to distract me
- I save lots of money. Its quite a bit cheaper when all you do is smoke cigs and drink a beer or two every night.
- I am completly content with just the above
- I become way to reliant on it for sleep, yet after a week this problem disappers
- my dreams actually make sense


damn good start I think

This brings up a good point.

Honestly I never used to get as tired on pot as I do now, I especially notice this when I'm not enjoying my high. Its weird, its like all I want to do is sleep.

2 years ago my anexity was at its worst and I began to literally start having attacks that would shut me down physically. I would get extremelly tired, and once in a great while I still get one of these attacks.
 
The only problem I still have from smoking is reduced dreaming, although through discipline and mental activity I've started dreaming every night again, even though it's hard to remember them 20 minutes after waking. Whenever I quit for a time, my dreams become ludicrously intenjse like they were when I was younger. I really do miss that. But I've countered paranoia by switching to a vaporizer and realizing it's in my head, and memory/retardation problems by using nootropics and exercising my brain.

Also, it's never made me tired and has always made me feel motivated as long as I made sure not to start watching TV.
 
Still smoking weed here, but I've gained like 10lbs thanks to the munchies I get when I smoke; this is probably worsened by the fact that I don't really exercise any more. I still only weigh about 165lbs, but it could get bad if I let it continue I guess.

Ugh, I don't want to get fat, but oh well I guess.

xorkoth, if you want to start dreaming, I highly reccomend soya lecithin, its a supplament you can find at any drugstore. it will help your dreams. get the big 1200mg pills and take one with a meal everyday. your dreams will be so vivid you may not like it 8o !
 
Interestingly, I've been taking it the last month or so (along with piracetam and hydergine which have been going for most of the year), and the addition of soy lecithin must be what has recently given me a jump in dreams. It hadn't quite clicked, but it must be what is helping. I've gone from no dream recall whatsoever to fairly vivid dreams that I have to work to recall more than 5 minutes after waking.
 
I started a thread about lecithin in 2003. In a nutshell, I recommend it to any stoner, because it counters the short term memory deficits somewhat. It only has one nasty side effect: too much in the diet can make the colon, and anything that emits from it, have a foul fishy odor.
 
i dont miss weed b/c...
-i can pass a drug test. i hate that it stays in your system for so damn long.

(i need to quit, i still smoke.)

I got the idea for this thread after finding a book in the bookstore for recovering alcoholics that markets itself as an alternative to AA -- appealing to reason and determination within onesself -- not a higher power -- to maintain sobriety. It takes the form of a journal / planner, with sayings on each page such as, "I am sober now. I do not need to make excuses for the headaches I had each morning at work."

I mean this thread to be an alternative or complement to the Cannabis Cessation Support megathread; moderators, I'd rather this thread be closed or moved to the Dark Side than merged with that one.

I don't miss marijuana because ...

... I'm willing to pick up my cell phone anytime it rings, without worry that I'm too spacy or stoned to carry on a serious conversation.

... I can remember small details without writing them down, even ones including numbers.

... I see how un-entertaining and base the Jerry Springer show is.

... I don't get mistaken for someone half my age because of laughing at things that normally only teenagers (and stoners) find funny.

... I don't spend half my income on baklava.

... I dream when I sleep.

Feel free to add.

seems youve never actually loved it
 
I "didnt" miss weed for one reason....I wasnt so anxious to get the hell out of any public place like the mall, or a grocery store for the fear that some one would bust me for being baked and accuse me for being a no-good pot head.
Now when I say "didnt" I mean that I had no access to it untill now (just picked up). Now i can get back to my Jerr Springer and standing infront of the fridge for 5 minits with the door open.

Also, just curious MyDoorsAreOpen, why can you not smoke any more?
