Weed Decision - Input
    #11275032 - 10/18/09 11:58 PM (14 years, 5 months ago)

Sooo.....


Life calls for us to go to school and to get good jobs and take care of our families, it lies in our hearts to do that also.

I love my family, and would do anything for them.


But I love to get high.


I love weed a lot, and it's a very big part of my life.


But i cannot get a good job, or be productive (it seems) while I smoke. (People can tell I am high, even when I am barely, or even from the day before..)


I have MANY more skills than those around me (not concieted but it's true) and I have excelled at all jobs I have had. including technical.

I go to school at ITT tech.

I work 50 hour a week

Pay all my bills

Love my family.

But cannot seem to find a foot hold to move 'foward' in live while I smoke weed.


It seems to me this:

I will have to
1. Quit smoking
2. Clean my appearance up
3. Finish my networking/security degrees
4. bullshit my way into a large company with all the bells and whistles
5. work my ass of and be good until retirement
6. hope i have money to retire on and medical to pay




This is not what I want to do. But there is nothing i can do otherwise, while I smoke and am a stoner.



but on the other hand , I really love who I am and what I do/feel/act while smoking, It has made me who I am, and gotten me where I am in life (I'm VERY hppy/lucky)...


But the future...



Should I quit smoking and 'clean up', or try to find a place that would accept my 'odd' way of being?

Just smoke way less.  Only on occasions when it's really strait to do so.  I can't imagine what's wrong with a friday afternoon toke as long as you get your head in the game come monday.

Yeah I love to drink but I am on hiatus right now because it has been fucking with my life.

Also, I wouldn't get all shit-faced and go to work either. You know?

Like guruu said, do it when it is appropriate.

I don't know you, but I know a lot of people that smoke too much weed. I cant tell if you are, but if you are saying that it effects you so much that you cant be productive even when you are sober, then you are using it as a crutch and need to realize that it is your own fault.

Again not sure if that is what you are saying though.

I'm having the same problem, it's bullshit that you need to pass a drug test to have a decent job.  I dont feel they should test for weed, whats it matter what i do on "my time"?  They should test for alcohol and hangovers.. much more dangerous than being phaded.
  I mean i understand testing for coke or meth or some other shit like that, but those leave your system in a few days anyway!!  I work seasonal in alaska, they have random tests every week, mainly looking for the harder things but if weed comes up it would be a problem...
  Yet all day long you can find guys up there drunk as shit and/or drinking during the fucking day lol... it's flawed for sure.  Buuuut waddaya gonna do?  Bend over, grin and bare it.  Become and Alcoholic, because theres no problem with that.

*shrugs* bla bla bla

Clean up to pass the test and smoke on weekends.  Weed cannot be your life, it needs to be a supplement to life, like vitamins are.

Quiting ITT Tech would be better for your life than quiting smoking weed.

That was my problem too.

Then I realised that it wasn't MY problem but everyone elses.

It's all bullshit to me, society in general. I'm attempting to play by my own rules atm, so far everyday toking is going smooooooooooooooooooth.

PLENTY of people have found way to fit marijuana consumption into their lives and still enjoy considerable financial and personal success.  It would seem that your situation is individual. 

I would say that if everyone around you can tell that you got high the day before then you are doing something wrong.  I guarantee if you are entering the IT world you will be SURROUNDED by stoners - they just are able to keep it together. Maybe just not smoking quite as much?

We have not even to risk the adventure alone, for the heroes of all time have gone before us — the labyrinth is thoroughly known. We have only to follow the thread of the hero path, and where we had thought to find an abomination, we shall find a god; where we had thought to slay another, we shall slay ourselves; where we had thought to travel outward, we shall come to the center of our own existence. And where we had thought to be alone, we shall be with all the world.

Smoking everyday can get to be a bit time consuming, and when your trying to get ahead in life the two don't seem to mix, well for me anyways. Use sparingly imo.

Just smoke at night after work to relax from a hard long day of work. Then you're good. Smoke only on off days too if you can handle that?

This is probably most true.


i do use weed to help 'deal' with life and the bullshit job I have.


Ehhh...I remember (barely) when I didn't smoke, and I think I had the same outlook on life then also, but I wasn't the same person.




I believe that I just need to cut down to weekend warrior, buy a fake dick to pass drug tests, and start my OWN buisness ASAP.







I just love weed soooooo much.......

weed will divert the energy you could use usefully into energy used to just feel the effects of weed.

substitute weed with food or something else that is somewhat healthy and will still give your brain some sort of chemical satisfaction without a total distraction.
