Actually, I was one such stoner who made an inappropriate comment in jest when a girl in college stumbled on the last step and verbalized it. I did not get up to help. I was 18, and that lack of empathy was partly due to my immaturity and partly due to cannabis influence. On another occasion, while listening to a student present something in the 'Great Hall,' the presenter had a stutter. The crowded room was packed and silent. Not having a seat, I was watching from behind the rails of of a staircase. I let out a very inappropriate laugh, to which many heads turned in my direction. I knew the uncontrolled laugh was wrong even as it left my mouth. Today, I find nothing at all humorous about someone's difficulties no matter what form they take, but back then, being stoned made me more stupid than I already was due to other factors. Those instances were not able to be taken in any slap-stick sense, like someone missing their chair, stepping on a banana peel, etc. :shrug: The responses were just wrong in those cases.






How do you know it was the marijuana, rather than immaturity? If the laughter was uncontrollable then how would not smoking weed have made it controllable?

I can admit that I do think more clearly when I don't smoke weed for long periods, but I also take things more seriously. I'm more of a jerk when I don't smoke weed and have a hard time sleeping.

Well it's interesting that he's spoken out about hard liquor on more than one occasion, which is too strong, and causes great harm to society... Yet if you've read more than a dozen MtG posts, you'd know he loves merlot... Meanwhile, bud is too weak and causes paranoia, unlike the considerably stronger hashish....  Seems like you can't win the dosage game with him. :lol:

Personally, I think it's important to realize that everyone has their own metabolism and neurotransmitters, and needs to use their own discretion as to what works.....  Also, FWIW, with drugs like marijuana (and LSD for that matter) I've tended to acclimate myself to them.... What once required stronger doses, now no longer does - in my early 20s I'd always opt for that 3-5 hit psychedelic dose, and now I can get into the same psychedelic headspace with just two hits of acid, or a 1 hitter of 'heady nugs' instead of a night long smoke out.  If you're out of the loop, it may take some time and a handful of experiences to know what you're talking about.




Not for a while now - over Merlots. We still do share Cabernet Sauvignon, and Zinfandels these days. Occasionally I enjoy a cognac (I rather enjoy Remy Martin), but my wife avoids distilled spirits. I like my liver even more, so I don't drink to get intoxicated (root being 'toxic'). The marijuana I've been cajoled to try over the past several years (when TacticalBongHit used to visit us for example) got me stoned to the point of disorientation on one vaporizer hit, and the effects continued into the next day (about 10 hours duration). So today's hybridized Cannabis sativa/indica, which come in spectacular violet and orange colors, can be far more potent than the hashish I used to smoke.

I am not comparing or contrasting drug of choice, nor making any judgement over anyone else's choice. Lots of people, and some who I socialize with, smoke cannabis. I don't have anything against them, I simply stated that I do not want the professionals I have come to rely on to have their judgement compromised. Fly Guy used to be a member here, and he was a private jet pilot who'd call me whenever he flew into South Florida, and I'd pick him up at the airport. He and his co-pilot once showed up in time for Christmas dinner. During the years that he flew jets, he stopped smoking pot. Now that he doesn't fly jets, he enjoys it again. I respect his professional ethics.  Hey, I don't want a drunk or hung-over pilot in control of the plane I'm on either. It is predicable that every time I express something negative about cannabis on this forum, it is met with emotional reactivity instead of the nonchalance that so many members express about most every other stereotypically controversial thing, like sex, religion, and politics. Go figure. :shrug:

Again, it takes some time to acclimate yourself to cannabis. The disorientation would likely subside once your nervous system adjusted to it, and you might just appreciate the experience after but a few more sessions.  If you were to go back to the first time you tasted a distilled spirit, you might have wanted to spit it out, yet over time you've come to enjoy them.  Your first impression, relative to several decades of abstinence, might not be the best indicator of what you're capable of experiencing if you gave it a chance.  While I'm not advocating this for you, I'm skeptical of your occasional tasting of cannabis to reaffirm what it is 'so that you know what you're talking about' for this reason.  Without giving it some time, I'm not sure you do.

I think many of us are in agreement that we'd prefer our professionals who we rely on to be operating with clarity and sobriety, and I most certainly do not support drug abuse.  However, we're not in full agreement and this is a debate forum .  When you paint cannabis out to be an opiate of the masses that subjugates lower class people (which may be true in some sense, but is certainly NOT an argument against using it), by all means I welcome you to visit my small Midwest hometown, and you can take a look at the kids who never grew up, got a real career, or left town goon their sad pub crawls and nurse their beers and 'get pissed', talking up their star days of high school football.... While sad, it's not a good reason to abstain from alcohol either, or to discard it from being a potential 'sacrament' (whatever that means).

Everything is better than it was the last time.  I'm good.

If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care.

It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence.

I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too.  If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

If sedation is necessary in your opinion, then you should ideally get to the root of the problem instead of merely treating symptoms. There is a price to be paid for any dependency.

It helps me tone it down, sometimes it can be a good thing, depending on who I'm associating with. It's just a natural medicine to me. It's not nearly as bad for you as liquor, which is purely for pleasure rather than anything medical.

Maybe you can boost your immune system with a bit of red wine polyphenols, but other than that, not really any benefit to it.

I'm the kinda guy that likes to get high,
As I stare into the clouds and watch the sky go by,
I can't help but wonder why, it is such a crime,
to smoke a bud of kind.

You know the kind I mean,
It comes in shades of green.
It eases my mind, and helps pass time,
while slowly closing my eyes,
blinding me to the havoc and chaos of life.

No one gets to the "root" of their problems.  Not from what I see.  Not one poster here in all my years of posting here seems completely healthy to me.  Not even close.  Those that claim it are liars and phonies imo.  And we are all dependent imo.  Some of us can use socially sanctioned dependencies and tell ourselves that we are so very different from the others and don't have any but I don't buy it.  I hear a lot of that bs around here.

it takes some time to acclimate yourself to cannabis

This is precisely what I do not want to do. The cannabinoids are fat soluble, and I have seen microtome sections of brain cells of a regular user present as amber-colored, not clear. Perhaps this effect is akin to seeing life through "rose-colored glasses," seeing through amber-colored Purkinje and Pyramidal cells. One quickly develops tolerance to most drugs requiring increased dosages, but with sufficient levels of THC stored in brain tissue, less may actually be required simply to initiate a threshold effect. People here often say that they no longer have to imbibe as much as they used to. There's a reason for that - retention of THC in the neuronal tissue. When I began to use cannabis products in '69, I remember having to smoke 6 times before I finally 'got stoned.' The stuff was maybe 4-7% THC back then compared to 20+% as it can be today. We used to say that you had to 'acquire a head,' which was to say, build up enough THC in one's brain in order to cross a threshold for inebriation to occur.

At any rate, my 'bucket list' is very modest. I want to finish Joseph Campbell's The Masks of God series, and read Plato: Complete Works, Cooper translation. If it ever stops raining this year, I want to paint all the wood on my house after I finish repairing the rotten parts. Neither of these kinds of activities have ever been helped by being stoned. In fact, neither has meditation along Buddhist lines. Relating to my wife, sexually or otherwise, with only one of us stoned is not gonna work either. There doesn't seem to be a place in my psyche for going about in the stoned state any more. I can't even find a purpose behind doing it again, except as I said to Icelander - as an experiment with my 'smell-brain' to evoke old emotions.

Your obvious cynicism is not something that you even consider a problem, so you will remain cynical about mental health for the unforeseeable future. I disagree completely with your conclusions because (1) wholeness is an ideal that increases incrementally but which isn't  a static state of perfection, and I have grown healthier (more whole) over my lifespan. I have undone much the programming installed by my well-intentioned but neurotic parents. (2) I have personally helped people undo binds that have left them with long-held symptoms, be they phobias, or some other psychosomatic disability like a stutter, or gotten to the basis of poor self-esteem and watched people blossom. I have seen people let go of various drug addictions and change their lifestyle to a healthier (less dependent) one. People have thanked you for helping them here, and I wonder why you blink those cases, only choosing to see the down side. :shrug:

Very few people (according to Abraham Maslow), forsake the usual avenues of personal satisfaction for the ideal of Self-Actualization. Those people concern themselves with wholeness ("Being"), continually moving towards this receding horizon. Dependencies thin as one's stance changes from "Deficiency" ("D-Cognition") to "Being" ("B-Cognition"). Too bad, this many years after the psychedelic 60s and 70s that more people at these forums have never read or discussed Maslow's work. It was Maslow who coined the term "Peak Experience" which became shortened to 'Peak' or 'Peaking' in connection to tripping, but it embodies possibilities and is an optimistic psychology.

So what could be the root of the problem?

Being high relaxes me, just as drinking liquor relaxes you, what is the difference and why shouldn't the same apply to you? Do you have a problem that needs fixed since you drink?

Do you think it is possible to take away my liking of the feeling I get from smoking weed or the liking of the feeling you get from drinking?


I never claimed sedation was "necessary" because I can function without it, it just isn't preferable in all instances. Obviously I'm not stoned at school and I haven't even been stoned since I came to the university, and my grades aren't that much different at all.

When it comes to personal psychology there would be no way to know with any assurance you had gotten to the root of a problem.  We are very very complex creatures.  Not to say one doesn't make headway on issues.

There is a price to be paid for any dependency.

I don't think this is necessarily true. Drug use is often not a problem as long as there is a constant supply. A few hundred years ago when opium dens were common, some people would live their entire life addicted to opium. Today some people live their entire lives addicted to nicotine or oxycodone pain pills.

Sure, there are side effects (cigarettes cause cancer), and drugs can be used to overdose (heroin death from respiratory depression), but these things are not necessarily always the case.

The problem with drugs comes mostly when the supply is interrupted due to morality laws and the addict goes into withdrawal. There are currently millions of people addicted to doctor-prescribed opioids and they live relatively normal lives as long as they can get their script filled once a month.

As the saying goes: "I used to have a drug problem. Now I make enough money".

These are YOUR words: I'm more of a jerk when I don't smoke weed and have a hard time sleeping. I was responding to them. The issue isn't a contest between wine and pot. The issue isn't your choice and mine. The issue was your comment. I smoked cannabis for a decade and was done with it over a decade before you were born, if you're in college. I don't care what your choice is, you'll discover on your own if you like smoking too much, and if it helps or hurts your academics. Wine is part of my daily meal, just as it is in many countries outside of Budweiser-USA. I don't drink, as in an act of getting drunk, or to sedate myself, or to sleep. And if I do drink a bit too much wine, my wife is always available to let me know if I'm being a jerk without actually calling me a jerk.

You're right, I did say that, but I meant that I don't sleep as well or have a harder time sleeping, I mean of course I can sleep.

Working out can help, or burning a bunch of energy somehow so I exhaust myself, but it still doesn't feel as nice as smoking a fatty. By being a jerk I mean I have less patience.

Weed seems to make me more patient, and things seem to have less of an urgency.

I also feel much more creative, like drawing/graphics or writing a poem is more fun. Games also seem a lot more fun. They are actually kind of boring if I'm not high.

things seem to have less of an urgency.




this can become a problem for most people who smoke constantly, and is why its common that a lot of stoners seem to lose motivation.

Quote:

They are actually kind of boring if I'm not high.




this can also lead to problems for some. People often smoke out of boredom, which eventually leads to not being able to enjoy much of anything in everyday life unless they're high.

Republican Values:

1) You can't get married to your spouse who is the same sex as you.
2) You can't have an abortion no matter how much you don't want a child.
3) You can't have a certain plant in your possession or you'll get locked up with a rapist and a murderer.

4) We need a smaller, less-intrusive government.
