woah that's lots - maybe go to a doctor? Or get a hardcore anti drug girlfriend - so you have to choose between sex or drugs. Then you'll also have all the pressure of people thinking you're a tool if you choose drugs over a girl...

Soo you're planning to take up drugs??? I would suggest rethinking this if you have not already started.

This does not work. You just end up becoming more steathly and sneeky about smoking. :roll: Not that I would know about this or anything. I have a "friend" who has cut down A LOT since this situtation started, which is a good thing I think, I mean "he" thinks.

:lol: I am oh so cleaver and sly :lol:

it's funny because i was about to suggest it to you untill i read you're post,
and as for the out of body feeling, usually thats what it's supposed to do, but just smoke a bigger bowl!
you wont get the out of body feeling i guarantee it, you'll get more of a who/where am i kind of feeling..it's pretty funny.

actually it does work quite well, my gf isnt nessessairily anti-drug (as in she doesent care if i do them or not) but she doe's get dissapointed in me when i set myself to doing something then all of a sudden just do the opposite(aka say im going to quit for a while, then break that within 20 days)
but the whole sex over drugs thing definately works out!

im a bit nervous about who might read this shit, but oh well, i have wanted to post in this thread for awhile. when i broke up with my girlfriend (we dated for a year, and she wouldnt let me smoke) i went weed crazy and smoked a ton (well, for me it was a ton...) finishing up with smoking like 14 days in a row and trying percosets(sic) the next day at work. haha, if anyone recalls, im a lifeguard, so when i tried the perks i decided to go for a swim and almost drowned :lol: the other lifeguards knew i was high and yelled at me to get out of the pool and stuff. but yeah, after that i decided i should probably quit. that was like...a month ago, and i have smoked like...7 times since then. im still kinda indecisive.

I started smoking pot in 11th grade and did it once a month for like 2 months then once a week for like 4 weeks then 3 times a week then every day. Then I kept at it every day for quite a while, didn't do it for 1.5 months and then did it a lot. A year later quit again for a month. Did it a lot. Lost 2 girlfriends over it. Super battle in my head. Messed me up a lot. I got a lot of benifits from it though, but I also had to struggle. As of now I have quit for 58 days. Ever since I decided to leave Los Angeles. One of the people I live with blazes so I constantly have the opertunity... but I have found sometime much more significant to focus on instead, so I geuss the best thing to do is to find a goal that you are passionate about and CHASE IT.

Good luck.

Ya man!!! To true.......i'm not a criminal and what i do to my own body is my business. All these old politicians say that chronic is so bad and they smoke a pack of cigs a day then down a bunch of whiskey!

Weed was originaly made illegal to target mexicans in the southern states. Were talking 1890 styles.

Heres a history of criminalization from the pro-marijuana camp........and i understand that it is not completely objective, but give it a read.

me and my friends blaze practically every day. Its not difficult to quit at all i just always find that there is no reason to. Over the summer i quit for about 2 weeks and after that i realized it was kinda pointless and i was bored outta my mind so i started up again. I just find it fun to do, and i dont think i should quit unless its really affecting my life in a negative way. As of now i smoke frequently and still get great grades so to me there is no reason to quit. This is just my opinion however, ik that for some people mj makes them lose concentration and what not but it doesnt have that effect on me...i just do it to relax.

What is salvia? I looked it up, and all I can find is it's a type of sage with healing properties. What are the effects? :?:

PROPS!! :D

I am now one of the happy weed-free people!

It hasn't been that long yet, but I am being very strong, I am stoked to have *smoking* weed in my past. I may still get high now and then via other methods eventually, but I no longer smoke anything. My body is very happy now. :)

No edit button in discussion? shows how much I post in this area that I didnt know that..

I forgot to mention that leading up to my quitting I was probably the hardcorest stoner of us all, I would wake and bake every day and then smoke bongs and joints all of the rest of the day.

I am very happy to have this out of my life.
