Misc why do i now hate cannabis and i used to love it

[mrflowers00]

i used to smoke anywhere from an 8th of an ounce to 3 to 4 ounces a day and then i quit smoking marijuana for almost a year and now every time i try to smoke even if it's just a couple of hits to a couple of bowls it makes me feel tired and anxious and i just can't stand the feeling it sends throughout my body does anyone have any ideas why this is happening to me?

Welcome to the club, my man! You're not alone, I promise you...

I'm not sure I would have ever touched another substance if I could just come home from work, smoke a joint, and be content with that, but I can't. I get anxious and paranoid. It sucks.

bodies change bro. peoples reactions to certain drugs change over time.... I used to love DXM when I was 18 and now at 26 I wouldn't do it if you paid me. life goes on.

Seems to be quite common. I used to smoke daily but can't really smoke anymore.

I don't remember ever really enjoying it, except a few times (which isn't enough since I actually smoke it quite regularly).
Just makes my heart beat fast, palpitations, and feel shit

I myself have experienced this to an extent. IMO you would need to rebuild up some tolerance and once your body has plenty of cannabinoids built back up your oil levels will once again rise thus allowing the medicinal effect to take over.
As for the the paranoia, IMO this can be caused the pot hightening your emotions and anything that is troubling you in the back of your head will come full surface. A wise friend told me this once, "If cannabis was legal, the side effect of paranoia would be gone"
Anyways, i dont think you should write off this wonderfull medicine just yet my friend.
Best of luck

This would be a lot more appropriate in cannabis discussion.

Wish I could enjoy being stoned again thread

I'd merge it with the latter thread, but I think everyone's points have been touched on in one of the 2 above threads. I encourage everyone to read 'em and contribute.
