If you try to talk to me, you'll probably get a blank stare and an absent minded smile, a random laugh, or a bizarre response. I smoke when I'm chillin by myself and don't need to see anyone, or with close friends who don't care that I'm a stoned goof.
I can relate to this alot. Doesn't stop me from constantly being high though :/

Don't get me wrong, I love bud, but it is amazing to me that someone could operate ripped all the time.
Any thoughts?
I cant function when I'm high unless I have to be productive in a way that requires creativity like drawing/mixing n shit.
When it comes to school thangs its disastrous. I really gotta limit my use but I cant see that happening.

I smoke because it reduces my anxiety without causing an increase in it while sober, it helps me catch depressed thoughts so I can stop having a defeatist attitude, it helps me eat since I'm not physically active atm, it helps me sleep, and it helps me focus.
I don't notice any hampering in my ability to do things unless I've been smoking a lot all day long. I also like Sativa doms so I never feel burned out.

when that happens the definition of 'normal' mental state is reversed. I gotta be stoned in order to function. I'm in the process of adapting.
Here is a neat way to illustrate whats happening with your brain on weed.
A to C shows sober cells whereas D to F shows cells on synthetic  The first column shows CB1 receptor (CB1R) on the surface and the second column shows internalized CB1R (3rd is control ignore it). G shows sober cells (red dots are surface CB1R) and H is cells (green bits are internalized receptor).

The cells engulf their activated receptors and eventually cycle them back to the surface or degrade them. Upon continual cannabinoid treatment the same dose would not induce the same response as the first time simply because there are not enough available receptors. So this means your cannabinoid system would not operate at a physiologically pleasant level without a basal level of dr00gz and you'll feel like

I used to vape once a night, it was nice because I got high daily but was never burnt out or hazed because I would just sleep it off. Getting high all day does have potential to get all groggy-foggy.
