I loved pot and smoked it every day all day long for years.

Wake and bake, smoke throughout the day and on breaks from work or school. Right before bed. Always. I loved it like nothing else.

The use of heroin and cocaine changed this.

When I am being a bad person and hurting those around me and not being responsible, weed bugs me out. I get very introspective. I also get very pissed at myself for not doing what I should be.

Drug addiction killed it for me. Even now that I am not on drugs anymore, and have not been for years, I still only smoke about once or twice a month. Doesn't make me paranoid so much nowadays, but it doesn't really have the same appeal.

I think I just grew out of it...

14-18 = POTHEAD
19-25 = Junkie / criminal loser
25-28 = Drug counselor / sober
29... here I am. Moderating psychedelic use and drinking booze a lot. Occasional smoke...

Things are good. I don't really miss it at all. If I did, I would smoke.
 
After two years of use (daily), and heavy use on the weekends... it just got old for me. Anxiety got worse; I was feeling burnt out; I was sick of hanging out with the same druggies day after day (sure I met a lot of different people - some pretty attractive girls that offered me sex, too), it was usually just the same five or six people over and over again - only a couple of whom I liked at all; I wasn't developing a tolerance at all, and would often black out trying to consume as much cannabis as everyone else; it was costing me a fortune (literally paycheck to paycheck).... The list goes on.

At the end of the day, it just wasn't fun anymore. That's why I stopped, about a year and a half ago now.

Maybe "stopped" isn't the right word. Occasionally I'll roll a joint (maybe once a month - usually less), sit back in my room alone, and listen to some music or watch South Park (my favorite thing to do stoned). That's pretty much it now-a-days.

Same thing happened with beer, but over a shorter period of time. I still occasionally go out and get drunk... but rarely. I offer to DD most of the time.
 
Weed just changed for me when I turned schizophrenic around 19. I miss the good feelings from weed when I used to smoke it as a youngin, but whenever I smoke it, it's a gamble. Half the time, I have a good time and get nicely stoned, the other half of the time, I hear voices and get delusions.

So I quit.
 
Truth is it hasn't got old for me and I've never really felt like I wouldnt still be sucking down cones like no tommorrow when I was 30,40,60,80 years old but from reading a few responses in this thread it will be interesting to see if I lose my love for good old choof, I hope not, but I suppose only time will tell.
 
Getting high all day every day all day got old, smoking weed didnt get old. Using less and using it for different circumstances brought back the magic for me. Smoking a joint on a long trail ride or fly-fishing beats the shit out of just sitting at home and smoking while watching TV. 13 years and still smoking:)
 
Weed started to affect me differently as time went on. When I first started smoking, I would get very silly and mellow and would have a great time. When I started smoking every night to fall alseep, weed would just make me get tired and sleep and I'd want to be alone after smoking. I just realized how lazy it was making me, and I needed it to do everything (to eat, to sleep, to have more fun) and how much money I was wasting and it got old. I was one of those people who said it would never get old.
 
I smoked it off and on for 8 years. I like it but I stopped because I didn't see myself doing it forever and I hate smoking anything. I didn't like how it would make me uncommunicative and how it made my panic attacks/anxiety worse.

Also at the time in my life I was having a lot of issues and drama and I quit using everything since I was badly depressed and getting daily panic attacks when sober. Pot didn't cause this to happen but I didn't want to smoke and go into one.

When I got those issues under control I started smoking again and smoking while drinking made me less anxious, more sociable, and I'd keep it as something to do on the weekends to relax or I'd smoke with friends at parties.

I did try smoking daily for once in my life and that was for one month during the summer and I loved it but I can't afford to do this daily for years.

I don't use anything at all right now and haven't for awhile but I know that I'll eventually probably start smoking again sometime and that I'll just do what I did when I was younger and just keep it to a once a month or a few times a month/on weekends to relax type thing or just smoke as a social thing a few times a year if friends have it.

Also most of my friends either don't smoke anymore, do it very rarely a few times a year, buy an 8th that's only for their own personal use, and the people I know who used to sell are either in jail, don't sell anymore, or don't use drugs anymore.
 
I got bored with the weed high, I'm too paranoid about being drug tested at any moment so I'm pissed that it stays in your system for a long assed time....just too paranoid to smoke it and have someone smell it on me....I still smoke once in a while to relieve chronic nausea and stomach problems but I got into other drugs and got bored with pot. I still buy an eighth here and there but that's when my stomach's fucked up and I need relief.
 
Ive been smoking since i was like 13 & im 24 now & i dont have any plans on stopping or even slowing down in the near future.
I luv the smell , the taste , that feeling you get from that first puff of some killer shit & your eyes tear up........ its a beautiful thing.
Ive done pretty much every drug out there other than hard 2 find shit & the needle. Nothing will ever compare to my one & only baby , Mary Jane:) - the only bitch that gets any of my $
 
Been ten years this January since I first used it. I can't see this drug ever getting old for me.
 
i started smoking pot when i was 15.mostly on week ends ,then i got kicked out of home ,then moved around heaps.started smoking daily at 17 until i was 32 by then i was a very paranoid and having panick, anxiety attacks and ralised i was fucked so i gave up.it was fun to start with.
 
Used to be a daily smoker, then my smoking friends left for college. Smoked by myself for a couple weeks but realized the paranoia (which I had been experiencing for a long time) was not worth it, and I had been smoking for the most part because of my peers.
 
It got old when finally after many years of abuse I finally (again) dared admit that the negative effects far outweighed the positives for me.
And that delaying the inevitable was a matter of simple and despicable cowardice.

Quitting improved the quality of my life greatly and I mean so fucking greatly that I could cry for the years I've wasted in that hazy stupor, even though it all happened quite a long time ago.
Never looked back.

Finally. :)

YMMV of course.
 
Never really gotten old. In fact, it didn't get truly interesting until recently, and I've been smoking for almost 2 years. Now when I smoke I get crazy CEVs and just get really fucking high, its way more fun than the typical couch-locked "duuhhhhhh" boring stone. It's psychedelic. I do smoke every night pretty much, and whether this affects me in the daytime I'm not sure. It certainly doesn't help but its not as if I've turned into some unmotivated stereotypical stoner who won't go out and do anything. Not really at all. So I don't see it getting old for a while really... I take a nightly prescribed dose of Klonopin, too, so I don't expect problems in terms of panic/anxiety attacks either.
