I like this thread.
I never thought about how fun it could be to have a sober day. I smoke weed all the time. It's just so fun. Food tastes awesome, my soreness goes away, concepts have a different humor to them, and most of all, IT SPARKS THE INCENTIVE IN MY CREATIVITY 
Cons...don't remember dreams. Used to dream well throughout my childhood

My consumption of weeds goes up and down, but right now I'm taking out 5-10 spliff bong tokes a day. Its the summer, so I don't really give a shit. By circumstance, I have a year to work leisurely and party every night if I so please. This I'm excited for. The time to be high is now for me, because soon enough employment and real life commitments are gonna keep me pretty busy. I fully plan on exploring my consciousness but these days I've been on output mode rather than input. Its like highschool was input, figuring myself out and all that. I'm making more music, and WAY more art. Now I gotten to a comfortable stage with who I am, and the more I simply let thing goes as are, flowing through this world, the more interesting people I meet and more interesting things I do.
So being stoned all the time isn't an issue for me at this point, and when I get to the point (very soon) where cutting way back will have to happen it shall be done. Its all priorities, keep em in check.

How do you even smoke if your family lets you?
Do you just go "oh boy what a long day, everybody is stressing me the fuck out. I need to relax...."

I truly think people that get high all the time are depressed or can't handle life. I used to be that way, but now I still get high almost weekly. Whether it be weed, opiates, caffine, alcohol, etc. It just shows you can't handle life and be happy sober.

What is your reason to be high every hour of everyday?
This for anyone that constantly stays high, on any drug, not just weed.
Just want some opinions and others reasoning behind it.

Because I have to do a plethora of different activities to keep my brain saturated. I can't cope with boredom and even whilst I am sometimes totally encompassed in something I will still be bored or not receive any satisfaction out of it whilst when i'm high I can focus on one activity and be comfortable with it.
Also I like being high

perhaps it is just what some people are currently experiencing, 5 years from now i would imagine that 90% of the people who are currently high 'all the time' will have become only infrequent indulgers or even abstain completely.
getting high all the time is part of the learning experience, and of course, it's a sack full of awesome.

It's human nature. Watch plenty of documentaries and scientific videos on it. Everything has limits and repercussions. It's also a personal choice. Most reasons drugs are illegal are because of previous political concerns and public health concerns regarding extreme addictions to certain substances. Just like a burger is fattening and a salad is good for you there is always two spectrum's to the ladder. Some people will choose to eat burgers and not give a fuck some will stick to the salads and other things. I don't judge anyone based on what they ingest but I do judge people based on their reasons to do so.

The funny thing is that NO ONE is high 24/7. It's physiologically impossible. The brain won't allow it.
People that say things like 'I stay high all day' are really just fooling themselves. Maybe you are keeping a steady supply of THC or whatever it is throughout the day, but you are not 'high' all day. In order to get 'high' one needs substantial periods of sobreity in order to create a contrast between the two states. You need time for the receptors to reset themselves.
I get high once a day. But when I say high, I actually mean it. These guys that chong constantly are just maintaining a very mediocre stone imo. They're never really getting 'high'. Maybe it feels like getting stoned to them...but the funny, almost ironic thing for me is that if I try and STAY stoned, I never truley am stoned. You know the guy that gets the most out of this plant? The guy that smokes once a week. He's the TRUE stoner.

I don't know man- with edibles supplemented with smoking some bud, I can maintain a high pretty much 24/7. Not that I generally do that (anymore), but it can be done with edibles.

I believe there are 2 versions of wanting to get high:
1. Get high to supplement your daily activities, or to make them more interesting with a different head space.
2. Get high to loose yourself in the physical effects, only to think of the next hit/IV/line.
When I smoke weed, I DO THINGS. HW, read essays, exercise, gaming. Pretty much sober things
#2 is a dangerous route. You will not learn anything, you will just GET HIGH. No activities. Just getting high, and redosing. I believe addictive substances gear you from route #1 to route #2 when you least expect it. There's a risk involved.
IN the end, to each his own. I know successful people who smoke weed all the time. Your beliefs on 'being high' all the time doesn't apply TO EVERY PERSON OF SHROOMERY.
Some people simply made their drug of choice part of his/her lifestyle.

Your survey is invalid because the last question assumes that we cant or dont stop occasionally. I use one drug or another most days in order to enhance my quality of life, but I am not addicted to any of them and I take regular breaks from all of them, and I can stop taking all of them at will, which is not represented in the possible responses.

I have to pass this drug test soon. So I'm on this 'beer' only routine. Well, I COULD be spamming my face with wood rose and cactus concoctions. But the TRUTH is THIS. The world is kind of a Matrix. If everything was parks and sun shines and flowers, and it was all perfect, without the need to use drugs, I wouldn't use drugs.
I could be FACE right now, but I'm not. If people consider drugs a distortion of reality, then I'm curious as to what they consider reality created only by other people. A more sensible reality? Sure, you can interact with it however you chose, but is "do this, think that, work there, live here, this land is for this purpose, that land is for that, laws against this, Bradley Manning was a traitor those helicopter pilots HAD to kill those kids, etc." reality then?
sobriety is something I HAVE to deal with, but honestly I'd MUCH prefer NOT to deal with creations that other people have created and believe it's the highest form of existing on a day to day level without changing the input once in awhile
