I Love Weed

[Bateman54199]

I just smoked a joint of some excellent weed last night for the first time since October 2008. Back then when I smoked, I smoked an 1/8th per day. Last night was chill, I met my guy at the spot which is atop this awesome hill and we rolled a joint. He was a highschool buddy from like 8 years ago. It was awesome smoking that joint and reminiscing(sp) and laughing.

Once I got home I smoked another joint and realized when i do opi's (2-3 bun/day habit) or (15+ pills). I isolate, but when I smoke weed I laugh and enjoy being around other people.

I hung at home, ate munchies, watched cartoons and listened to tunes.

I LOVE WEED!!!

[duck]

Yeah it's a pretty wonderful drug. And NOTHING beats a joint of good bud with a good friend. Driving around the farm roads, smoking, laughing...ah, the finer things in life.

If it didn't make me so god damn lethargic an hour or two after smoking I would smoke 24/7. I CANNOT be productive and eat reasonably when I smoke all day. I just cannot. I seriously admire those who can.

[bodytec]

Man when i used to do coke a lot, then i would smoke weed when coming dowm from the coke,it would make me wonder why i even touched that evil demon coke.
Its nice to get to experience a super good high without buying into a world of addiction.

[Papa Verine]

I love weed too. I can smoke all day and still be productive and active, it just takes a little extra push and a good dose of caffeine.

I have a small garden well on it's way to producing a good amount for myself. It absolutely sucks that I have to wait until October to get it! I'm looking around at all these local plants that are 4 feet tall and flowering already, wondering why the fuck Cannabis can't be like that!!!

Just imagine if dandelions contained cannabinoids and opiates! What a world this would be...

[duck]

What is the trick to smoking all day and still being productive?! God my life would be so much more enjoyable if that was possible.

[resorcinol]

I like weed, but it doesn't make me social at all. I get really really introverted on weed. I also have to watch my dose; If I get too stoned it's a guaranteed panic attack. If I keep the dose low it's a nice unique buzz.

You said it my friend. I grew up in a little farm town in KY and still miss riding country roads on a sunny breezy day smoking with my homie and talking about this and that. We'd even stop at a few ponds and fish, as we lit another doobie..... Ahhhh good times.....

[youwonhundred]

You motherfuckers suck, I been lookin a goddamn bag of weed all day.


BWAHAHAHAHAHA.... but this shit sucks

[Nonphixion]

I love too. all day everyday, i've been smoking daily since HS. I really don't get high on opiates anymore(rarely:/), just bupe. and I don't think I could of stayed off for so long w/out my weed. Plus I get theses crazy dreams were I think i'm using. Like waking up covered in sweat, It's almost worst waking up truly thinking u just blasted off a nice fatty shot & guess what 'Wake Up' & NO!, you didnt & you really thought it just happend. But bud really helps w/that and no dreams.

[duck]

that is an incredibly good point Non. I never realized how much weed could help with curing the opiate obsessed dreams you get when you're coming off the shit. Good good.

[Nonphixion]

Thanks Duck, It's crazy how it works huh? I noticed that I years back, even before opiates when I would go on vacation w/ the family and had to go on a plane, & def. didnt want to carry on the plane. I wonder if pharm. company's have look into stopping night terrors/opiate obsessed dreams w/bud instead of all the sleeping pills?

[Pollen]

So true. I find that weed can quiet my desire for opiates pretty well. Plus it's just great by itself.

Getting really good weed and smoking any time your high wears off. I have noticed that when the weed addict smokes he/she is productive for an hour or so (assuming the weed is good/clean) and then productivity quickly drops off. If he/she smokes again, productivity goes up but not as high as the first time of the day. Maybe this is when the weed addict drinks more coffee. But this is the general idea I think.

One of the most important factors here is that when you smoke all day, every day, the high is much tamer.

[dharma bum]

What is the trick to smoking all day and still being productive?! God my life would be so much more enjoyable if that was possible.

For me to be productive after smoking, I have to smoke quite a bit, several times a day for a few days. Then I notice I get used to it and function on it. So i guess what I'm saying in a word is Tolerance.

Pot during w/d is hell for me. I go into panic mode from one toke.

Whoops, I just saw where Hovagod answered your same question, nearly the same way I did.

[duck]

Yeah, I usually try it for a day and then get discouraged.

I always liked smoking more when I was just working than going to school. Now, being a full time student, it just requires me to really engage mentally during the day...which I struggle with when high on weed. I much prefer to just be doing manual labor, construction or whatever, when I'm getting high. If I keep moving I get much less lethargic. I LOVE smoking before I go on a long bike ride...as a matter of fact.....brb!

[Citrus]

Pot during w/d is hell for me. I go into panic mode from one toke.




For me, I need my tree, specially during w/d. If I have none, or cant find any, or broke or whatever, I pretty much feel like dying. As long as I got a sack of kush & some subs, I can not give 2 shits about dope.

Weed was my original love, still is, but heroin sort of has a grasp on my mind, I will always buy smack over pot, and 8 out of ten times, I regret it because I would already be so low on money to begin with, that I knew I wouldnt have shit for when I start to kick / bupe maintenance

[longduckdong]

Hate weed. Makes my stomach very upset. I wish I liked it.

But then again, I dont wanna be lumped into the pothead group.

Nothing more annoying to me than the potheads that constatnly have to remind you that they are a "pothead". It's as if they thnk it's some sort of status symbol.

[SHELLEY]

<---- not a pothead, just a smoker here
i smoke so much goddamn weed i don't think of it as "getting high" anymore
i just burn small amounts throughout the day to get me in a better happier mood
so i can take care of all my business, make money and change diapers
but early in the morning (5-6am) and at night after the baby goes to bed (8pm-12am)
thats when i get really blazed

i also couldn't be without weed

[JTDuffet]

I would have to concur with Citrus. before dope, weed was my ONLY love... i've also been a daily smoker of herbs for the last 15-20 years now... and I never miss a day... coudln't live without it either and have no intention of quitting anytime soon..

One thing i wanted to mention, is that unless you smoke it regularly, getting high can be overwhelming sometimes.. that soaring paranoia you get when you burn somethign really good.. the key here is repeating the experience. once you smoke every day, the high changes.. after smoking daily for a few days, you will find you can handle it better...

I've done some soul searching recently, with the help of some very potent marijuana.

Come to the conclusion that I am really ok with the idea of not doing opiates ever again.
Had some temptation spring up now that I'm two months clean, but a few bowls fills the hole.

I feel strange still being here, on Opiophile, I do love opiates, but hate them too, thought that's not unusual really.

Opiates were great at curing migraine pain for me, pot isn't, but I've been putting the energy of the hustle into getting triptans rather then opiates. Though I don't have the blanket of warm fuzzies from time to time, life is way less complicated and stressful.

[tina]

I wish I could enjoy smoking weed. It always makes me so paranoid that I avoid it. I used to smoke it a lot back when I enjoyed the paranoia that i got out of it. I quess I am just getting too old for that anymore.....:(

[youwonhundred]

Snuffleuppagus is visiting family, and somehow two almost mature plants were hanging in the closet.

Snuffy is fucked up.

In related news, I am seeing the neurosurgeon at 7am so I need to get to bed.

edit: see how well that worked? :P

[Maintenance Man]

I'm too tired of excoriating all the fucking potheads on this forum. Most develop a unique affliction that combines a lack of motivation with a seriously paranoid outlook, and a view to conspiracy, plus the thought it makes them more creative, etc. etc. look at my signature, cf. "Evil in chemical form: THC, LSD, psilocin, DMT, et al."

Please use the search feature to read some more of my lengthy posts on cannabis, with many well-argued, well-thought-out points that are not commonly addressed.


THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE OPIOPHILE. WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH ALL OF THE WEED THREADS RECENTLY? I JOINED THIS FORUM FOR A REASON.. IF I WANTED TO TALK TO A GROUP OF HALF-BAKED STONERS, I WOULD HAVE JOINED WEEDCITY!

[youwonhundred]

^^What the fuck is your problem? Are you some kind of chemical snob?

GTFO newbie.

If we don't meet your exacting standards go to bluelight or something. For that matter stopdrugprohibition may still be around.

[Maintenance Man]

All these smokers constantly praising weed, having to brag about, "oh, I just smoked some good weed, look how cool I am"... "weed is where it's at"... "smoke weed," as mentioned, like being a pot smoker is a status symbol or makes you part of a special club or some shit. I'm not a chemical snob - but not many people here seem to realize the excruciatingly terrible effects hallucinogens have on the psyche. That's why acid lasted one decade, then faded into relative obscurity. Just because weed doesn't do the same shit as fast or as hard, doesn't mean it's not the same, in the end.

That's like saying a beer drinker is not an alcoholic.

Or someone who uses percocets constantly can't be addicted.

Bluelight is too full of people who like hallucinogens and shit. Can't stand that place.. this is supposed to be OPIOPHILE... I never say a thread about weed on here before I joined, and now it seems constant. Isn't this a place to discuss our -phile of opios? Or is it just drugophile?

See the forum titled "Cannabis?" - you know, the one you just POSTED in?? Don't like it? GTFO.

There's more to opiophiles than opiates. We talk about speed and coke and psychedelics and dis-associatives too..

[youwonhundred]

It's all the same in the end. We die. You ARE in the cannabis forum. Don't like it? Don't read it.

[Maintenance Man]

Sorry, didn't mean to. It was in popular threads on the front page. Any way that I can configure my profile to keep certain forums from showing up there for me? I'd love to live the rest of my life without ever hearing about that fucking tree or anything hallucinogenic ever again. Sorry; didn't know there was a weed forum.. I just click on the "hot threads" on the main page.

I'm with dharma bum. One toke during w/d sends me into straight, "I can't breathe, heart attack! panic".. one toke while I'm nodding ruins the nod and sends me into a slightly less severe panic mode.

[RxQueen]

i gotta concur here MM... i think that everyone who has read any of your posts in the past week or so understands how you feel about weed/psychedelics. it's really not necessary to re-post the diatribe on every thread you find that mentions any of those chemicals. different strokes for different folks, eh? we try to be tolerant of others' drug habits (whatever the drug might be) here on opiophile.

that said, i probably still love weed. i haven't smoked any in months and months, but i was an every-single-solitary-day stoner for many many years. i'm talking like from college till about the age of 40 or so. but it did sorta change once i got a heavy opie habit... it just didn't get me as HIGH as i remembered getting before that. but the last time a friend smoked me out, i got STUPID stoned, like a beginner all over again! that kinda rocked.

the funniest thing was that when i quit smoking it (i was trying to get a job & didn't wanna deal with the whole stays-forever-in-your-system crap for piss tests), i started craving every other drug in the world! i was clean from opies at the time, and doing okay with it. suddenly, without being able to smoke a nice bowl or 2, i wanted everything from coke to heroin to benzos... quitting pot was my gateway drug! :D

Dammit, I've read enough of your posts to ascertain that you're most definitely a chemical snob. The amount of disdain you have for stoners and users of psychedelics pretty much sums it up. "That's why acid lasted one decade, then faded into relative obscurity"... What a fucking load of shit, acid is still alive and well and often changes people's lives for the better. Granted the heavy use of acid (psychedelics in general, weed included) can have negative effects on people, as can the heavy use of any drug! The majority long term weed smokers / users of psychs will eventually either quit or cut down on their own accord with no major problems, which cannot be said for many other drugs. Think about it!

The fact is that you've never had an insightful life changing trip and don't have the head for smoking weed, seems to have skewed your view of users of these drugs. Personally I've been a pretty much daily weed smoker for 15 years. I'll admit that it was a problem for a while, it did affect my motivation and for a couple of years I was going nowhere. I eventually realised I was much more productive and motivated if I refrained from smoking during the day, so pretty soon I'd managed to cut down to smoking in the evenings, then less than daily, with no withdrawals or lingering consequences. Try doing that with opiates!

And I've experienced some horrific trips. My first trips on shrooms and acid were terrifying, I was forced to confront my demons! After both, I woke up the next day swearing I'd never touch psychedelics again, but with a strange feeling of enlightenment, almost rebirth. I attribute these bad trips to a) psychological immiturity, b) unresolved issues and c) bad setting. After a couple of years (by age 20) I got the guts up to try them both again and absolutely loved the experience.

[Maintenance Man]

....acid is still alive and well and often changes people's lives for the better....


I think that's going far too far to say OFTEN there. It rarely changes people's lives for the better, changes most people in no way beyond getting them blasted for a day, and rarely changes people's lives for the worse.

I might be one of the people most negatively affected by acid alive today, judging from what I've seen, heard, and read. It, like other psychotomimetics, is an amplifier. I don't want to amplify what I already see and feel. I've had enough of that, that's why I use drugs. I want a duller, a blinder, a diminisher. Only if things are already going good does acid give you a good experience.

Shit, I guess you're right in a way. Acid lead to my salvation in accepting Jesus Christ. I believe, with all my heart, God sent me to Hell for 8 hours so I would repent. And repent I did; so I guess I was reborn through acid too, and am thankful with all the thanks I have in me I survived that 180+ pulse, drunken, horrible trip to Hell.

[Seedy]

^^ believe me, my first acid trip could well have lead me down the same path as you if christianity was more prevalent in my setting at the time. My first trip was also the first time i tried eating weed. I'd been drinking all afternoon at a party, given someone some $$ for some acid that might turn up, and the hosts brought out a huge pot cake (literally a big cake with bits of stalk and leaf poking out everywhere). I munched out thinking it'd be the same buzz as smoking weed, way more than my fair share. Then the dude came back with the acid and we all dropped.

It all came on pretty nice at first but at the point it should have plateaued I kept getting more fucked up, everything kept getting amplified like OP said. I couldn't handle the party, way too intense, I took a walk, Kind of helped until I couldn't handle what was going on in my head, I just wanted everything to stop, like a rerun in my head of all the shit I'd been through, everything I could have done better, all my insecurities, enough to think either I was insane, dead, in hell or whatever. Just coming out of it and realising I was alive was like a rebirth.

[Maintenance Man]

I didn't have anything going through my head other than "I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die".. no visuals whatsoever, just the worst, indescribable feeling ever. I didn't have my wits about me enough to understand the message God was trying to send.. that came the next day. I was entirely alone the entire time of the trip.. the guy who gave me a dose, the biggest asshole of all time, said.. "I'm gonna leave before you start tweaking on me" about 30 minutes after he dosed me, after smoking 2 bowls of my weed. I was a doormat at the time, and supported this guy's pot habit completely... I bought from him and smoked with him, and only once in four years did he throw down. I got a new connect for KB (he sold mids) and he matched me, one bowl, with the SHITTIEST WEED I HAVE EVER SMOKED. I bought ounces for $100 (back in the late '90s) that were between 20 and 25 grams depending on the day, and if I wouldn't smoke with him, he DEMANDED I give him an eighth. I let my money walk and he ran off with it about once out of every five deals.. just enough to keep me buying, and always came up with some bullshit excuse. I could have kicked his ass, but then I would have had nowhere to get weed.. I was that addicted to weed back then. As bad as I am to opiates now, without the physical dependence. As soon as I got that new connect I never talked to that asshole "D" (you know who you are if you're on here) ever again, and then I stopped smoking within weeks due to:

I smoked some pot when it was "peaking" to try and calm myself down, and it just kept getting worst and worse. Forever after that moment, my original love for drugs, weed, was destroyed, gave me flashbacks, and made me paranoid and panic attack instantly after one toke.

Then I quit smoking, and after a while realized how much it had fucked with my life.

*When I was tripping, for the first time in my life, I prayed.

[poonwhalla]

MM no wonder you hate weed and other shit with how much you got shitty deals back in your smoking days. Now kindly SHUT THE FUCK UP about it. You are really getting annoying.

[youwonhundred]

Yeah, dude I think you have some serious unresolved issues that you need to work out, but do it someplace else?

[Shadowsblaze]

I stand by my last post on your weed acid salvation hell buzz kill, you were dropped on your head as a child. So take your repetative post to your group and analyze this, why are they starting to hate on me. Will this cause me to leave this site as well. Oh no its happening again. And don't take any acid to try to help with this process cause the devil might get ya this time and you'll be in a whole world a shit. Please please please oh yea my darling do.

[SHELLEY]

i've got a crazy idea:
why doesn't everyone do whatever drugs they want, or no drugs if they want,
and not talk shit about people because they like a drug that you don't?
i don't like hallucinogens or any fucking sort of pills, but i don't care what drugs others like
if someone wants to buy $80 oxycontin (ouch) or eat shrooms all day, more fucking power to 'em
and if i wanna smoke weed all day, i don't really come to a drug forum to get shit on for it

i mean seriously, hating on potheads in the cannabis group on a drug forum?
why not go to the 'green parenting' forums and talk shit about breastfeeding next?
or to the nerd forums to talk about how much you hate sci-fi fans and trekkies?

Really? You're talking shit about weed when you use to be a daily smoker who was so into you got ripped off daily buying it? Most potheads don't like it so much they'll be someone's bitch just to get it.

I would say you're an asshole, but I just feel sorry for you after that post. If you seriously think weed "fucked with your life," good luck with shooting heroin. Here's some friendly advice, you might want to quit now. If you have so many issues you can't quit weed when you're being ripped off all the time (and it's not even physically addictive), heroin is not a good drug to move onto instead.

[JTDuffet]

RxQueen, I totally agree about your statement...

the funniest thing was that when i quit smoking it (i was trying to get a job & didn't wanna deal with the whole stays-forever-in-your-system crap for piss tests), i started craving every other drug in the world! i was clean from opies at the time, and doing okay with it. suddenly, without being able to smoke a nice bowl or 2, i wanted everything from coke to heroin to benzos... quitting pot was my gateway drug! :D

when i was clean off all drugs, I couldn't stop thinking about doing any and all drugs, but once I would smoke a bowl, i would have a revelation and decide to just stick to the pot. not smoking pot is like the gateway to sin... (for me that is.. and apprently a few others)
