Marijuana isn't pleasant aynmore?

I have been smoking for about three years now, and I can say that I'm a pretty heavy smoker, well before these last few months.
These last few months have been difficult for me, whenever I toke up I seem to get very anxious and sometimes very paranoid at well, nothing. I lost in my thoughts... I use to love smoking alone, but now it just seems very unpleasant. Even with friends, I still get paranoid, but I hold it back pretty well and I don't think they suspect a thing.
During the summer, I was smoking A LOT more than I am now. It was a daily thing all day with some of my best friends. It was great. I would sometimes get very mild paranoia that I think everyone experiences when they smoke marijuana, but I would easily just brush it off.
I really don't understand why this is happening now, I really do love Marijuana and the last thing I want to do is quit because I really do enjoy my good experiences. Does anyone ever go through this rut?

This is it .. Constant use (or abuse) of any substance for a prolonged period of time is going to eventually have negative side effects.
If you still wish to smoke, try cutting back to once or twice a week and see how that goes

This happened to me and happens to a lot of people. I completely lose myself if I smoke pot now, but I still use it on occasion for creative endeavours. If I have a purpose, I can justify the negative effects because the positive ones are so worth it. I would take a break from smoking, then slowly have a little bit here and there, but honestly it caused me a lot of worthless paranoia and identity loss.

It might be the strain. Bud with a really high THC content but no CBD can cause anxiety.
They've done tests with pure THC and it causes people to panic until you inject the CBD then they settle into a nice baked mood.
You need both chemicals. Try finding a weed or hash with more of a body load then the cerebral high.

Hey buddy. Do you feel like you're being counterproductive when you smoke? Do you think you matured and now you know there's other things you should be doing besides smoking?
Don't get me wrong, weed is awesome and I think I will always smoke sparingly. But what I said above is real. Sometimes it's just not the right time in your life to smoke.

I've given up weed a few days ago (here's hoping it stays that way). It's not doing what it used to, financially it's ruining me, physically i'll pay for it in the long run.
Even with a job, GF and house the negatives for me personally now outweigh the positives. Maybe now that I do see some glimmer of hope for the future I'm less inclined to waste my days just getting high.
I've smoked since I was maybe 13-14 (well over a decade at least). Would smoke constantly when not working.
I do love weed, but I'm totally addicted to joints. Maybe mixing tobacco into the equation was a mistake. I'm certainly hooked on the baccy but I would/have never smoked a cigarette or rollie so I most likely crave tobacco rather than weed. A wierd situation to be in.
My advice to anyone else would be never mix weed and tobacco. Tobacco is straight up bad and should be illegal, I don't see any benefits at all. I know plenty of friends that got hooked on tobacco as a result of smoking joints and then running out of weed.
Weed should be controlled in the same way as alcohol.

this. i puffed HEAVILY for 10 years...all day every day. i quit for 1.5 years until recently. i started puffing again a week ago due to chronic pain.
when i took my first puff, i had a panic attack, and for the next week i had a panic attack every time i smoked, even with 3 different strains. the only strains i could get at the time were sativa dominants.
as of last night, i just acquired a nice strong indica, lower in THC and a bit higher in CBD. it made a world of a difference. my eyelids instantly closed halfway, and my body was warm and relaxed. no mind fuck like the other times in the last week. i went to bed an hour later. on the other stuff i literally tripped out for 4 hours and i couldn't handle it.
find a strain that works for you, otherwise i would just quit puffing, which is what i was about to do before i found some bubba kush

Thanks for the responses guys, nice to know that I'm not alone lol.
I pretty much came to the conclusion that I need to get some shit straight in my life before I start heavily smoking again. Lots of things have been going on lately, and I feel like that it is the reason I'm not having a good time being high anymore. Some sort of underlying anxiety that the weed just happens to bring out when I'm stoned.
Dunno if that is a little far fetched but eh whatever.

Pot eventually brings out mental illness is susceptible / fragile brains. You might just have a reasonably strong, slightly fragile brain that had no problem for three years but is now starting to show its cracks, so to speak... there is something different mentally ill / predisposed people are born with and it often stays dormant for whole life times unless triggered by stress or foreign chemicals in the brain. You might just be starting to stir it up now. Probably another year of smoking will leave you with a chronic mental illness.
