Time away from marijuana bringing me many realizations ...
    #5319018 -

In the words of Chicago: Everyone needs a little time away, I heard her say (Mary J.)... from eachoooooother! 

Ok sorry about the awful reference, but since taking time of from cannabis I've been relating a lot of love/break-up songs to my situation :smile:



As some of you know, to me, marijuana represents nothing short of connectedness, peace, happiness and love.  The effects of marijuana when used irresponsibly, however, can manifest into something entirely different.  After reevaluating my use (and abuse) of this harmless substance I have decided to take some time off.  You see, I have probably not gone more than 12 hours "unhigh" since last March.  This was all well and good at one point, but for me, marijuana's #1 benefit is the ability to change perspective.  And when your entire world becomes this "new perspective", you start to realize that this very ability to change perspectives is lost.  Is this Mary's fault?  FUCK NO.  My bad, entirely.  :smile:

In a complete haze, I started missing the days when the taste of grass after a long day of work and soberness was a true "reward".  A few weeks ago I was focusing on increasing the amount of THC my body gets in order to achieve the clear and profound highs I used to get "in the day".  I began to realize though, after wasting countless grams of Skunk/Ak and Sour Diesel, that pouring more THC into my body was *not* the answer.  So I decided to change my perspective yet again by going sober for a little while.

Coincidentally, I came across some great shrooms the day I decided to take some time off from smoking/vaporizing.  I had an amazing trip that reaffirmed my lust for life.  During the trip I realized that I don't *need* Cannabis or Psilocin to achieve profound thought and understanding.  I undoubtedly still love both mushrooms and marijuana, but am now so proud to say I can get to "that place" with my own mind and soul.

I highly suggest taking at least a week off to everyone who plays with Mary regularly.  Marijuana becomes an entirely different (and lesser) entity when abused.  In the meanwhile, I am patiently looking forward to the day when I can dance appropriately with my beautiful Mary once again. 

Hope all is well with everyone here- keep your heads to the sky but remember not to miss the greatness that exists at eye-level :smile:

i know what ya mean man, i long for the days i could take a couple hits of bammer and be sooo freakin loaded that i almost couldnt take it.

It just isnt the same anymore.

I aggree completly, after years of being costantly high on the rare occasion where i would go without for a day or two(2 days almost never happened) i would find sober weird cause my reality was being stoned from the point i woke up till the time i went to sleep.

Lately cause of cashflow probs, i havent been smoking NEARLY as much as i was. Hell i havent smoked weed in 2 days, a hit or two of resin, but no pot.

Being sober is almost like being high for me in the fact its such foreign felling now.

It's true dude, you take drugs to change your perspective, well do it too much and you get used to the "new" perspective, and it's no longer new. Going sober for a while is cool, I've done it before, it'll make drugs interesting again when/if you decide to go back. This can be very rewarding, a break, not to mention all the $ you'll save.

I used to be an avid smoker until i was shown the path to living healthier lifestyle  :mushroom2: So when i do indulge in a weed session i  often end up getting 'trippin' ripped' I haven't smoked like i used to in about 6 months, now i probably smoke about once every two weeks compared to an almost 24/7 high. I too have soo many realizations, or as i like to call them "Revelations" when i smoke the herb. Often when i stare at objects they will swell in size, like the TV or PC screen. Moderation is the key and i enjoy normal reality much more than i ever  used to. Enjoy

I take time off regularly, and find it very effective. I consider myself a "light daily stoner." I usually smoke up 5-10 times per week, but I usually use small quantities (like 2-5 tokes).

Usually after 5-6 weeks I take a break, usually 7-10 days, and it give me nice perspective. I find that marijuana works much better for me when I dont use daily also, every other day seems best for me.
