Weed and stoned creativity

I remember the first few times I smoked weed, I tripped out really hard (closed eye visuals were quite common - especially with hydro) and used to laugh at almost everything for absolutely no reason. Nowadays when I smoke, I feel good, sure, and consider things more in-depth than I would being sober, but the ideas I used to have seem nothing like they used to be compared to those first few times - things were really deep and meaningful back then.

I also used to be a really creative drawer/sketcher but this seems to have gone with the smoke... Now most of you are probably thinking "tolerance" but I take breaks from pot every now and then for months on end...

Another thing which occurred recently has been the changes I found while being high. I used to be really paranoid and anxious around people (considering what they really thought about me) while stoned; but now, after a few acid trips, I seem to deal with pot so much better and actually want to be around people while being high.

What do you think? Any similarities in your experiences?
 
My 1st time I was smoking weed I freaked out alot, My whole body was spinning, I couldn't walk, I felt like I was gonna vomit all over.. Hopefully that 'trip' lasted no longer then 10-15min. Afterwards I just felt great.

Now when I smoke weed, everything's cool.. colors are more intense, just right.


I think Weed did change me, I became less shy, more open... Idk
 
Weed doesn't really help my creativity since all i really do is sit there and chill and basically not do anything but feel the euphoria of being high.

Now on the other hand, shrooms make me super creative and see things differently. i usually draw for 8 hours straight and since i'm an artist naturally it is just a way of relaxation. i feel weed does give me that motivation tho because i become relaxed and energized to learn more and do more. So I think it has a good effect towards my motivation ironically.

same here. but thats mainly towards the come down. i love my creativity when high, i just love to sit and tell ppl my theories on life.
 
I think alot about life when I'm on ecstacy. It really opens your mind up, at least for me
 
When I started smoking weed I found that it made me more creative, in relation to musical instruments anyway. Now whenever I play guitar when I'm stoned I just seem to play the same old blues lines and find it hard to think of any new places to progress to.

I find that drugs don't enhance my creativity. The exception being MDMA, although it's been quite a while so it may have the same effects as every other drugs on my creativity.
 
well, i also tripped out really hard the first times (from literally nearly nothing), CEV, a little shroomy feeling, etc. its different now, nearly as described in the first post. but atm i can blame the weed [from a different source], so well see what the future brings. for creativity: im not a big artist or something. well at least, im no artist at all^^. but i like to construct things. a little hardware hack here and there when im bored. weed kinda triggerd me a love to smoking devices^^. cheap and selfmade? ill try it out xD. i have a homemade glass bulb evap, wich works but i dislike to smoke. i build myself a blunt carrying device (cause i like blunts but for rolling i need peace and time) out of the metal tubing from a cheap cigar, so i can carry myself a prerolled blunt. you can carry it around in your jeans without the need to carry blunt papers, weed, tabaco (horray for europe ;), etc; wich tend to need way more space.

it has the lengt that a full length standard blunt fits in, and the diamater to store 2 (wich should have the same flavour to prevent a mixup)

i also made myself a "bong kit"
its easy-to-build & cheap & robust. in short its a piece of threaded metall pipe and a threaded 9mm shell (if 9mm is too small for you, use .45 shells) as chillum. for me as an inexpirienced smoker the 9mm shell chillum is a real "one-hitter" (horray for puns). the pipe is a little spiky to ease the inserting into the bottle (seals air-tight if done properly). its build in literally no time, looks kinda cool i think and is ideal for festival use or for people who dont have the posibillity to secretly store a big bong (like me) / or the money (like me). Also it won't break easily, plastic bottles are avaivable everywhere, needs really low space if carried / stored without bottle, plastic isnt exposed to heat -> so no toxic fumes released by it, and so on.

i know i also posted this into another topic, but i think it fits in here nicely too.
 
@ OP
i feel you man. weed used to strongly give me the impression that i was filled with more magic/creativity/energy than usual. nowadays it makes me calm and slightly glad, but also lazy and self-conscious (unless i use it infrequently.)

funny though. despite knowing that i smoke too much weed and that it would be wise to smoke less often, i smoke up a lot anyway!

OT:
smoking in the evening, preferably after i've done all work, helps the laziness. i think evenings are for chilling anyway.
 
I am thinking the meaningfulness and wonder can be revitalized by changing your mind.
