Alright so like any true pothead I used to love smoking weed more than almost anything out there. Many times each day we smoked and it was bliss. Now as I've grown in my experience with various types of drugs I seem to enjoy smoking pot less and less.

There is something about the high that is simply lacking. Now as I began noticing it my oxy (ab)use was on its rise so that might have something to do with it. Anyway, my question is have any of you guys experienced this before? If so has your love of marijuana gone back to the likes of the old days?
 
The same thing happened to me. I smoked pot every single day from the time I was 15 until I was 31 years old (I am 36 now).

After a while, I began experiencing panic and anxiety when I smoked; therefore, I stopped smoking and unfortunately, began drinking heavily. Then, in turn, I stopped drinking and switched to opiates (I just can't win).

Another point to make is that these days, it's tough to be a pot smoker and work in the corporate world. More and more companies are drug testing now and weed stays in your system so damn long.

Fortunately it is easy to provide a false negative on those tests (unless it is a hair test!).

I suggest a outright break from inhibitors like alcohol and weed or other drugs. Wait a week, and enjoy a fat blunt to your dome ;)

Smoking alone is also very boring. Try smoking with lively and active friends.
 
Yea i lost the love for weed too. i think it is just a stage. for some it lasts a while. for me a couple years. i still smoke and love mj. but not like i used to.
 
I'm kind of going through the same thing....ever since I started raving and doing E more often (once a month or so), my experiences with weed just don't seem as "meaningful". I still like blazing with my friends for fun, but it doesn't offer the mind opening spiritual experiences I have EVERY single time I do shrooms or e.
 
i understand your situation. i think it has to do with having a high tolerance.

i've been smoking on off for the last 13 years and pretty much daily for the last five years. but my area has gone through a dry spell that sometimes forces me to go as long as 3-4 days without smoking pot(don't say anything i know i'am a full blown pothead)

but, not smoking as much and taking a few days off from smoking every week has helped my tolerance go down and the high seems to be so much better.

before i was at the point you at now. and it seemed i only really got something off weed only if i would drink or take opiates or benzos with it. oh wait, i still like that if i have i have enough smoke for a couple weeks.:p
 
idk man thats weird.


maybe you didnt smoke good enough weed???

when i do other drugs it makes me say "dude i dont even need this, just weed is fine"

except if its a opiate, but i love weed just as much..


idk i know how you feel though, take a break then smoke. my love came back and has stayed since, i just keep my tolerance low

Click to expand...

It's funny that you say that because probably more than 60% of the time that I blaze, it will be alone. Weed just puts me to sleep, so it is not a very social drug for me, at all.
 
i`d say there are many possible causes:

1. other drugs taking the place weed had before

2. tolerance

3. changes in your personal situation / expectations your having

and lots of other possibilities...maybe only one of them, maybe there are several causes working together. i`d suggest to be very careful with opiates & to take a break from all drugs for a month or so. maybe thats enough to bring back your love for weed & to save you from abusing to much oxy/other stuff.

or just kick all drugs at once & start doing sports ;)
 
I personally believe that other drugs can cause neuronal changes that in turn make marijuana less enjoyable... I LOVED weed, vaporized every day for 6 years, then moved on to pod tea (in conjunction with it), now that I've quit the pod tea, marijuana has nearly opposite effects for me... I can sleep pretty much fine now after abstaining from opiates, but if I have even a hit of weed even right at the brink of dawn, it will keep me up ALL night with racing thoughts like I'm some crack junkie..(might i add i don't drink any coffee/take any caffeine/drink ANY alcohol)

Crazy shit
 
As a dedicated daily cannabis user for over 8+ years I can say that naturally it will lose it's "magic" when your body is so used to it. A break can help this but I found that even with long breaks it still isn't the same. I find discipline to be the best remedy these days, I only smoke once a day at night when my priorities are done, it is so much more rewarding trust me.

I was/am also an opiate addict. I was into oxy for years and obviously that made weed appear like a cigarette, just was normal to smoke just for the hell of it back then and to strengthen my oxy buzz.

Eventually I moved from oxy to pods and was on those for a year, boy that was worse W/D than oxy--simply horrible.

Nowaday I use Kratom as my management tool, it has anti-addictive properties to kill cravings for opiates/alcohol and also is a great tool for managing anxiety/depression and gives a nice mood lift.

You see the true magic of kratom once the opiates are out of your system. It saved my life from opiate addiction and I don't regret it. I also find it makes my smoking session even better at the end of the day as well :)

Good luck man and congrats on beating the opiates! I am sure you will find MJ enjoyable again, just give it some time and remember moderation, less is more.
 
ya I mean I pretty much only smoke the nicest weed around but it just feels like theres something missing. I've been smoking for about 3-4 years now i think basically what you guys said about tolerance and what not seems to be very true.

I'm going to Germany for 6 weeks coming up soon so hopefully plentiful drinking and abstaining from weed will help a lot :P
 
i think it has more to do with your oxy use
i have experienced the same thing myself
i have recently been doing oxy more and more and now and i have found that i will go without weed because i spent my weed money on oxy. im been smoking for a good 6 years now multiple times a day. and before oxy, going without weed for a day was un heard of for me.
this of course is a terrible trade off and dont get me wrong i love to have weed and oxy together but when you start on oxy, money seems to be scarce.
 
Trading off smoking weed for a nice little opiate addiction is so common I can't believe anyone would be surprised that this happens. When it happened to me I wasn't saying I hate/don't like weed as much anymore I was saying I love heroin.
 
I agree with the above posts, once you do a hardcore opiate like oxy then of coarse your brain is going to think of a weed high as nothing in comparison to opiate euphoria and the nod.

I'm sure if you stay clean from opiates for a few months then you will fall back in with the ganja crowd. Best of luck to you, opiate addiction is no joke and the psychological cravings months after you quit do exist. Just remember you CHOOSE to use a drug, don't let the drug use you! (I'm sure you've heard that one before)

Good luck!
