"The Tiredness" - How do you deal with it?

i love to drink something /w strong caffeine, like a heavy mocha or energy drink and then smoke when I'm feeling stimulated. I get pumped and energized and my heart REALLY gets going, so it's perfect to clean the house up or go out and do something.

in the absence of more powerful stimulants, caffeine works for me.

Well, if I eat too much I get sluggish and just want to lay down and digest in front of the TV with my eyes half open =D

i think the tiredness comes from long term use. when i first started toking the herbal i would stay awake until i was basically sober, mainly because my mind was racing around so much. But somewhere down the line with frquent use I just started to get lazy, and im not sure totally why, but its definately got something to do with tolerance and my mind adjusting to the weed. So the best way to combat laziness would probably be to take a break. It does wonders.

yeah, does wonders, but every time you light a joint? that's not very good for your health i presume. he needs something less damaging as speed, like coffee, something you could take on a daily basis without adverse side effects and withdrawals (except for headaches).

As stated by another Bluelighter, Sativa's are quite the energizer for me. Indica's are quite excellant for it's sedating properties. FYI- the three "major"strains are Sativa's, Indica's and the quite unpopular Ruderalis. You usually get major sleepies when the active canniboids are degraded to it's inactive form.

I was high when I began to read this. Then I got really tired and fell asleep while reading it. Its funny, because im tired and thats how it affected me.
 
Biochemical individuality will ensure that people will be effected differently, even smoking the same strain under the same conditions.
The slow sluggishness described above occurs when the amount of THC stored in body fat (particularly the ‘fatty’ brain) becomes too high. THC is extremely lipophilic (attracted to fats) so it readily enters cell membranes and is not eliminated for a long time, due to the strong chemical bonding with lipids. (how long depends on the persons’ biochemistry and the types of cannabinoid receptor most active for them – usually months)
Obviously then, THC is eliminated at a much slower rate than it is usually consumed, and unless your intake is carefully controlled, the THC buildup in your body can be massive. And during this time THC metabolises into 11-OH-THC which exhibits continual residual bioactivity – desensitizing certain brain regions. This effect reverses once the molecule is eliminated.
In other words, if you are getting too tired to do anything, you are smoking too much!
(see chapter 2 of ‘Marijuana and Medicine - Assessing the Science Base’ )
 
Ive been smoking for 5 years and i can tell you definatley that unless its sativa weed is shit, thats why i quit. i endup feeling worse the next day from smoking at night then what i do from a pill! i mean some people might love weed like i used to , but the time has come to move on.. Weed makes you introverted and think about the world, but eventually you have to be extroverted and do shit about your world.
 
Well if I'm toking by myself I like to drink a cup of coffee and have 1 or 2 hits. This gives me a buzz but never knocks me out. I don't seem to get tired as quick when toking with other people.

As I mentioned earlier a break does wonders, I just got off a 3 month break and a half 1/8th has lasted me for 3 days. I still have some left that I am saving for a concert. I toked a quarter of a joint and I had feelings similar to a trip, I even got some CEVs it was nuts.
 
**bump**

i smoke weed at night so i can rest peacefully. i dislike smoking during the day unless i know that ill be smoking more or doing some other drug during the night

it's just like getting drunk in the morning, some people like it but most don't
 
I make sure to never smoke out with friends anymore... the tiredness of weed is pretty sure to piss right over any night out you have

why stop smokin out while ur out with ppl thats wut always keeps me goin cuz when im with my budz theres always somethin to do
 
I also like to take some coffee to avoid the feeling of tiredness. But isn't this realy bad for your body? I mean, pot is a more of a downer and caffeine is an upper. Maybe after some time your heart will get disordered through this...?
 
Man, the tiredness is the single best part of the high. I only smoke by myself now, I usually take 4 - 5 really good hits, do something for an hour (usually play games/listen to music on the computer), then spend the next hour in bed, watching a DVD... then after 2 hours, my high is still going nicely and drift to sleep beautifully over the next 30 minutes - hours (just as the DVD is ending).

:D wouldn't want it any other way.
 
i never go to sleep, I always have things to do. have sex/masturbate, talk, think, smoke some more, play video games, listen to music, chill with friends (unless I'm at home), watch tv, eat, smoke a bit more, eat some more, listen to music while eating, puffing on a j and covered in sheets, doing stupid shit like walking around with a fez on my head, staring and visualizations while rapidly opening and shutting my eyes to get a strobe like effect (fucking trips me out when I'm really, really ripped), laughing at funny stuff, talking to myself (that's if I'm alone), dancing, singing, writing, drawing, painting (I fingerpainted once, that was good fun until I got paint all over my favourite smoking jumper), do shit that would suck when you're sober like cleaning (better when tweaking yeah true but I smoke more than I tweak) or dishes or something, all while listening to music and eating.

go to bed eventually, of course =D I almost always wait til I'm sober, unless I've been smoking consistently all night, and when I'm at home I normally just have a j or two, or a few cones, so I just stay up for a few hours

you're either bored or smoking some indica...weed with a strong body high always makes me feel sleepy, then you get bomb shit that's all in your head and you wake up and start thinking. just mix it up a bit!
