Well, there is no 'point' to smoking if there is no point for yourself.

If you don't feel like you need to or want to smoke, then there would be no point in smoking. Give it a rest for a bit, and when you feel like you do want to smoke, you can smoke! That would be your point.

You're probably smoking with the wrong people and I think smoking weed to be a social butterfly is stupid.
I only smoke about 4 times a week and mostly just to chill out I don't see the point in going out to the store high and I mostly smoke with some old hippies.

All of age 27 was daily smoking. I just turned 28 and Thanksgiving was my last day. I need to take a big break and then MAYBE come back to it. It becomes a money pit and the high isn't what it used to be. I'm going back to monthly shroom trips also.

I've lost all motivation and I need to take a break to find out if it's weed's fault. The world feels a lot more numb then it used to be. Kinda depressing if I had the motivation to care.

I would vape 2-3 times a day, roughly 1g. And I would use a vape pen 10+ times a day. Before moving to SF I would do 5-10 dabs a day and smoke roughly .5g out of my bong.

Since getting really into weed when I turned 27 I have thought about taking breaks many times but could never manage more than a few days before I would be back into my usual routine.

Kinda got sick of it. Spent all my money on it and smokes, so I quit both. It's definitely nice every once in a while, but not everyday. Tolerance is a fucking bitch. If I decided to grow my own I'd probably smoke a lot more, just because I grew it, and it would be a ton cheaper. Really all I use it for now is a booster when I'm tripping or drooling on myself  :chillpill:

I completely agree that weed gets pointless.

I think it was perfect during late high school years. I stayed on track with classes, got my good grades, and had no real worries like bills, rent, and profession. Weed was the great getaway from parental control!

After that though, I feel happier sober, reading, and learning. For "fun", I like strategy video games to keep the brain happy and chugging.

I don't mind a joint before a professional massage though.

I pretty much used to smoke 24/7 socially. Met up with people, smoked, partied, got drunk, smoked. And so on

Recently, it all gets a little repetitive. What is the point of blazing so much? I just kind of stopped hanging out with that entire circle. I mean, they are all good people. Some of them are douches but we all have those kinds of people everywhere. And now I vape by myself after a long day

My question is that does anyone think the marijuana scene is a little pointless? In a social sense? If we smoke a joint and do something, thats cool. But smoking socially is just about getting as stoned as humanly possible. Its a huge money pit. And when I see myself transferring (I am applying to colleges for transfer next fall and spring), I cant really see myself doing the same thing

Like having a beer on my own after a long day is always nice. But getting drunk as fuck all weekend every weekend is just a tad silly to me

Anybody agree with me here?
Also, what exactly do you nonsmokers do socially besides drink? I really don't know how to socialize without drugs so it is honestly hard to open up

I've found that socializing is always better for me when I'm sober. I'm thinking clearly and the conversations are much more interesting then when I'm baked out of my skull. Last time I had a smoke sesh with some friends we ended up eating tuna, pb&j's and drinking milk, as well as orange juice mixed with rum. I was so gone I asked the question "is French different from Spanish". I really don't like being so high that I'm a complete fucktard. I've enjoyed taking a hit or two and having philosophical conversations with people. But in general I enjoy weed to myself with a nice creative overtone. Socially sobriety or a shot or two works just fine.

Yea im over weed I only smoked it because I thought it was gonna be the same as my very first time and it was like that everyday for a month... after that it was never the same even after a 1 year straight t break and smoking the dankest frostiest bud. it wont fuck you up your first time but after smoking for a long time it starts to take its toll your mind is slow to respond and you just loose your sharp mind. tbh its only good if your rich, don't have a worry in the world, and don't need to socialize much. but I do think it has potential to be made into a medicine and im not talking about bho.

Not a single medical user here? I have crohns + other GI problems. SWED or take some really unhealthy pills(long term effects). Over the years I have struggled with the effects of weed (besides the all holy feeling of taking away the stabbing pain in my intestines).

I'v smoked with many SWED homies over the years. There really are only two types of smokers.

Those who smoke to relax (and overtime and overuse turn them lazy). And its apparent in their behavior. IDK how many times I'v smoked with someone, then get so dumb and spaced out; holding a conversation is hard, they may as well fall asleep they are so non-existent and unable to think of more then 1 thing at a time.

Then there are people who smoke for the 'energy'. Just about any construction worker in a big city. Smoking all day everyday and never miss a beat. Life and 'motivation' look the exactly the same as someone who doesn't smoke.


Weed doesn't inherently make you lazy, its not even about moderation. It's about creating your own motivation in a sense. Must like you create your own trip or create your own reality... If weeds making you lazy, set some fucking goals and get some mental fortitude. Aka Ima smoke and clean the house, Ima smoke and read this book, write this software, etc.

Smoke and play that video game. Thats not lazy, the best fucking gamers, professional level players, that I know are people who play blazed outta their mind. What makes you lazy is when you mentally check-out and no longer strive to be the 110% best at what your doing. Blazing up makes it so easy to check-out and do the bare minimum of just paying attention.

The friends I smoke with are at the same point in school as I am. When we get high we talk a lot about interesting things we've learned recently. Psych, phil, chem, and anthro are our majors and we usually find ourselves coming up with ridiculous theories about various things and then debating them. I'm pretty sure the discussions we have while high make navigating my way through conversations with "normal" people in a meaningful way a fucking breeze. I think actively engaging with your thoughts while you're high can be mental exercise. So that's kind of the underlying point I see to smoking with people. If we're talking about going to some social scenario where you're surrounded by shallow unaware obnoxious fucks and lighting up, that's probably pretty lame though.

It's hard to find those kind of people - or maybe I'm not looking hard enough. Anyways, most of the marijuana users and pretty much every other peer I come in contact with cite forums and underground news articles for their data. It's frustrating that people only look at the surface and not the references for their information and it turns me off to the conversation. I also feel like an asshole when I know the right answer and express it, so I usually just keep it in unless the conversation about "acid burning holes in your brain" goes too far.

I have only one friend that really looks into the legitimacy of things. He and I smoke together, but usually around other people, so the intellectual conversation tends to be in our own small circle. Physics, chemistry, and music theory tend to be the usual topics - I find this to be the most tasteful juice of the fruit of conversation.

:lol: That's exactly how I feel the majority of the time. It definitely seems like people who value the sorts of social elements that it seems like you and I value are sort of hard to find. To be totally honest, it sounds to me like you're longing for some friends who are closer to as intellectually capable, for lack of a better label, as you are

Such people are difficult to find. Many people involved in the drug community take the rebel image to a ridiculous point. Very few people I know can carry a legitimate conversation on topics such as these, and those that do carry an arrogance about them that just turns me off. I knew one guy who was planning to be a writer and quite intelligent who was in my community college, haven't seen him in months. Word is he's on methamphetamine now.

Cannabis to me is just another way to relax. I use to be all in it and what not. BUt i guess as you get older it becomes less and less important. Plus, I much rather stay sober, meditate daily, do Yoga, and other mental exercises. I get a much better high from those things then cannabis ever gave me.
