unfortunately marks 7 years now :/ like #3 said tho it really depends on the person. i smoke bc i am severely chronically/mentally ill so it actually helps me feel more feelings , less pain , and be more connected to others! it’s important to remember its diff on everyone and while it might affect some negatively it’s the magical cure for others

Yeah true I do agree everyone is different and it affects everyone differently. Just I don’t believe we need to be dependent on it, cause than you need it to eat, stabilize emotions/mood

Just speaking my mind… I used to smoke a lot for like 2 almost even 3 years. And I am 2 months clean and I am realizing there aren’t many benefits, if any at all. And I think I smoke here and there isn’t that bad but being dependent and needing even a little everyday isn’t good and should not be normalized.

I agree! I can admit i am dependent on it and it’s an issue i have with myself sometimes but i also know that if im not smoking weed then my only other option is meds as in pills. When you are using it medically you kind of do have to be dependent. If i were to tell most i was taking meds bc my body needed them to be better you wouldn’t see it as a bad thing. i think many forget weed is used medically!! I read that you mentioned it has no other effect for you than being high which makes sense to

To each their own. I love weed, to be honest. But I just feel this generation speaks to highly of it. It has positives but negatives too.

Anonymous #1 1w

why you feel that way and in that sense it really is a dependency. i’m glad that you feel better without it and i hope your sober journey goes well! it definitely depends on the situation and person at the end of the day tho. weed is a great source of medicine. dependency or not some people really do need it. even if it’s to eat bc without their bodies can’t (literally an illness not from weed). the spectrum is big and at least it’s not a dependency to something harder imo

It’s cause we smoke to not face reality and not face the problems. Smoking calms that’s and makes shit easier. But when you face reality for what it is and find a way to organize the chaos and accept everything you can reach a different type of calmness that’s is dependent on anything.

True but I am talking from experience, when I smoked I didn’t wanna stop I would lie to myself about it having any bad effect on me. Just people gotta be honest with themselves about addiction and not try to make that shit cool. Like tryna make being a stoner cool.

Cause it’s your new normal, you won’t feel the fog but think back a few years, your view of life was different when 100% sober. And grades aren’t a measure of that at all buddy. I am at a 3.7 and I been smoking since freshman year of college too.

My view of life is so much better. Before weed I was anxiety and depression ridden and on a cocktail of prescriptions. Now I’m on minimal medication and medical marijuana and feel better than I ever have in my life. Stop thinking you know other peoples situations.

Nah proving that “the fog” didn’t stop me from maintaining a good gpa. And proving that there is no correlation with smoking and maintaining a high gpa in the US college system, which hasn’t surpassed what I’ve done in highscool.

I am not saying I do. Just realize that weed helps because it numbs you, that’s why you’re not anxious and depressed. I’ve struggled with those too and have learned to face it and understand it. You can’t just bottle up everything and make your self victim.

Nobody’s saying weed is perfect It’s just wrong to stigmatize all heavy users. You don’t know everyone’s situation or reason for using.

Anonymous #13 1w

Agreed maybe my approach was wrong. Still think being a pot head regardless the situation removes you further from what humans should regularly have in there endocannabinoid system. Thc lvls are out the roof, I’d be fine if it’s how weed was in the 90’s 4-7% but that shit is frying people’s brain 16-40%.

I’m one of those that needs it to eat bc of a chronic stomach condition. It stimulates my appetite and gets rid of my nausea enough so I can eat without throwing up. And since I went to using it once daily I have had no nausea (besides an occasional flare). There is no medication that can treat my condition that I can take (bad reaction to the only med available), so I accept being dependent on weed. Like I know it can become problematic, and it has at times, so I try to use it strictly as a med

Do u know how much pharmaceuticals companies profit off of sick people? Weed is significantly cheaper than most of my prescriptions. Also who is “they” that would be profiting? The government? Dispensaries? Weed growers? Unfortunately we live in capitalism, and no matter what u choose someone is gonna make a profit

Anonymous #19 1w

But I honestly could never smoke it and function bc 1/2 the time it just knocks me out and prevents my pain and nausea from going out of control. The other 1/2 of the time I’m giggling and laughing at anything while able to be productive… but I’m going out in public so obviously high like that, I can’t hide it 😂

I understand it. But you get these stomach issues from smoking ode. I have multiple friends that’s need to smoke to eat. One had some stomach issue and had medical attention to try to help. But let me ask you a question when did this stomach condition start. It’s cause your body is dependent and being highis your new normal. The endocannabaniod system is responsible for regulating hunger. So it’s literally just that. When I stopped smoking I would gag to eat and I barely ate for a good two weeks

Depends how you live your life. I don’t do medicine. All natural, and I get a cold like once a year. You guys take these meds that’s make y’all dependent on them, you get no acquired immunity cause you fall into all the prescriptions and ohh you need this ohh this and that. I know we live in a capitalist society but yall have to questions shit. You can’t accept everything that’s put infront of you.

Bro I’m not fighting u on this. My stomach condition started way before I ever picked up a joint. And it’s not causing the issue or making it worse. If it made me worse, then why am I no longer vomiting every single day??? I’m not going into depth about my person health history, but my stomach issue was caused by a different health condition. I’m tired of people like you trying to “educate” me on my own disease and what weed can do to it.
