so when you get high, do you loose motivation to do things you should be doing?
    #9265928 -

Usually when i get high, it actually motivates me to get up off of my ass and do something, get something done. I do tend to try and veer towards the sativa or sativa/indica mixes. which i do think has something to do with it.

in general im quite the productive stoner, and smoke pretty much every day.

however today, i smoked some of a friends herb (i can definitely assume that it was a 100% indica) and im am glued to this computer and this couch.....

Pot definitely sucks my motivation from me. I mostly just smoke midgrade though, which I'm assuming is more indica than sativa, but I don't really know for sure.

I smoke before bed, so it's not like I'm going to get out and explore the world. But I don't just sit there, I like doing things I would normally do.

Unless I do more than one bowl, then I just can't move.

Every time I smoke I try to spend at least some of my high doing things.

If I always smoke and sit around, I'm going to learn that smoking and lounging = the same thing. I see it as a pairing. What you do while stoned determines what you will learn is appropriate to do while stoned.

But that's just my take on it.
I always do something productive while stoned, whether it be something creatively productive, or real world productive.

No matter what the weed many times I feel like I lose some morivation, its like weed can make one feel alright with being lazy more than being sober. But of course that isnt absolute. To me the key is to try hard to limit smoking till the very end of the day, like late at night. At that point I feel ok with it because I (ideally) finished all my tasks of the day.

I'm not sure which comes first here.  I am not a motivated person.  If someone were to look at my life (like my parents) they think I am not doing as much with my life as I should be, but I am happy and support myself so I really don't care.  My dad is a doctor, my two siblings are both lawyers, and all of them spend so many hours at work (other than retired Dad, but he used to work a lot).  Yes they make a lot more than me, but I don't think I would be as happy with their life.  I have thrown away educational opportunities by being unmotivated... it is an easy label to put on me.

Pot makes things even worse for sure, I care even less about getting ahead in life, I have no real motivation to clean or get work done when I'm high.  I know this so if things need to be done, I try not to smoke much.  The only thing pot motivates me to do is play guitar, and I will never make any money with that cause I suck (pretty much).

It would be easy for an outsider to look at my life and blame the pot for my motivation problems, but I feel like they were there before I smoked.  More important, I am still a productive member of society, and I like smoking pot.  It makes everything better!  So I do not believe that smoking pot cannot be done responsibly.  And my dad and brother are both very motivated people and they are stoners.  I think it depends on the person.

Sometimes on bad highs I really hate myself, and think that it would be more conventional to be a straight, Christian, school obsessed fuck too.
Though, with pot I can zone out and do everything on auto-pilot.

I don't think it's less motivation as much as my interests change into things I WANT to do over the things I NEED to do.

Ya feel me bro?

Usually I smoke on the weekends because I work so damn much and I can't go to work smelling like weed (i tutor people, my boss doesn't like it if you reek).

When I smoke I'm in the mindframe of relaxing, and I've deliberately set aside time not to do anything. I notice I get more motivated to improve my emotional outlook though. I'll sit and think about the way I've acted during the week and if I approached everything with a positive attitude. If I have I usually feel relaxed, if I don't I tend to start beating myself up about it, giving myself a pep talk. I tell myself I need to be more positive because life is important, I shouldn't get wrapped up in petty arguments or get angry at people I love and respect.

After a period of self-examination I usually try to do something creative with the rest of my high, or something that builds my self-esteem. In terms of emotional self-examination it's very productive.... it's really the only time I can deeply think about my personality and what I can do to make it better, or at least less negative.

There was a time when i would smoke before doing anything cause in my head it allowed me to combine party and work. i would smoke and go to the darkroom and  smoke and go to galleries and what not. to change that  association of "getting high means sitting around and doing nothing"

now i'm just realizing that my entire mind body and spirit isn't internalizing and digesting whatever i'm supposed to learn or gain from doing these things, that my mind is only half there and i won't fully digest what i'm doing. I'm fully functional when i'm high. i do get lazy and it takes me longer to do things, but it's the focus at this juncture in my life that i feel like i am lacking.

these days i've been making a concerted effort to just smoke less. i notice that i am high for the majority of the time and sober for a small percentage of time, so i'm trying to flip the ratio. it's been working out pretty well.

No, never.  Even with marijuana, I still feel motivated to do work, BUT feeling motivated doesn't always translate into taking action.

With marijuana, I still feel motivated but am too lazy to actually do anything.
With alcohol, I feel motivated to do it ten minutes from now (after another drink).
With DXM, I feel motivated and take action but am too stupid to do any work requiring even basic calculation.
With LSD and shrooms, I feel motivated and take action and can generally make an okay go at it.
With opiates, since I am an addicted, I feel motivated and get to work because I am no longer distracted by opiate craving.
