2nd day back in the saddle. My friends told me "about time", I was getting on people's nerves something fierce. I'm generally an anal person sober. When I'm stoned I'm much more agreeable and likeable.

Do you guys find it unnerving that you are reliant a chemical to be happy or to be the person you want to be?

Personally I like to hit up the heroin and opium. It gets me going a little better.






Nah Just kidding, I am a drug free kind of guy. :D

Yes! I do feel that way. If only Nitrous was a dominant gas floating in the atmosphere, we would all feel just a little better. Instead we have grass, mold, and dust mites clogging up my face constantly making life miserable.

At least when I'm stoned, I don't focus in so much on the negatives in life and I'm a lot more enjoyable as a person. You would not like me as a person in general. I am very anal and can be a mean prick. My brain runs 1,000,000 miles an hour and I am bothered by every little thing, including people.

When I use to shred daily down at Mission Beach, I was often told by Richie and others to chill out. I would rant and rave about missing a string of tricks, spit every other second, and cuss loud as hell. Now I play to have fun, and it has nothing to do with being sober. I have a chemical imbalance anyway, and prozac did nothing but make me a lazy overweight slob. The exact opposite of who I am. Being stoned is a happy medium between the 2 and allows me to still function at 85 - 90% capacity. Never 100%, to me that's impossible. Sober I function at about 45%. And on Prozac at about 25%. I consider it self medication of a better kind.

I am currently on a weed break, a personal test to see how long I can go without it, so far it's been 17 days with one slip last monday. But im not slipping again!

before the 17 days I smoked every day at least once.

Everyone is reliant on chemicals to be happy. When I do something that makes me happy my brain is using chemicals like dopamine and phenaylamine (spelt it wrong probably) to give me a sense of euphoria.

If you take away my means of receiving these chemicals (took my footbag away from me for instance, or my loved ones) then I would no longer be happy. Now that the situation is reassessed, the question should be 'is there anything wrong with inducing this happiness from the use of drugs?' rather from 'natural' means (and that is a horrible word to use for it, but I can't think of another). The answer, like most, is grey. I think you can become overly reliant on drugs for happiness, and the results are more negative compared to if you became overly reliant on footbag for happiness for instance. Of course 'overly-reliant' is nebulous as fuck.

but now you are just being a smartass.


Most marijuana afficionados will say "there is absolutely nothing harmful about weed!". Even if doesn't cause direct physical damage as some other drugs do, I have seen soooo many people fucked up because of it. I'm afraid of it; I am in high school and I already don't feel like doing homework, but I feel like if I started smoking I would just be gone. Is there a doubt that in many cases it is mentally addicting? Of course sometimes it will not affect you at all, as in Sunny's case.

Take everything I say with a grain of salt, for I am 15 years clean, but I have talked to a great many people who have smoked and I have heard all different opinions and views.

I personally have met many people that were perfectly happy and then were convinced to smoke marijuana and then ended up becoming depressed because they developed an addiction. Then again, I've met peopl who were fine afterwards, and people who didn't change at all. It probably depends on the person's mental stability as to how marijuana affects the individual. Me? I don't smoke marijuana or drink alcohol, and I lead a pretty happy life and try to focus on the positive.

some people just prefer sobriety

I feel like that alot lately and ive diminished my pot and booze intake just cuz it sucks to always be intoxicated. Soberness isn't so bad at all, in fact I prefer it so much more often now.. which is so weird for me. I used to smoke every day.. and when I was out of school i drank like 5 times a week, just cuz it was something to do.. Now I feel alot better just drinking and smoking once in a while. It's good stuff

I've seen some people get screwed up from weed, but not physicly harmed. What happens with some people is they become overly dependant on it, and their lives revolve around it. That's when it becomes a problem.

I know some nice people who turned into jerks when they started smoking. It has never seemed worth it for me. I like my body and personality just the way it is and I don't want to do anything to risk screwing it up...

my friend has a medical mary note and they just gave me some

"PURPLE HAZE"!!!
