I too have had this experience but in hindsight i'm not sure I really need this. Maybe the relaxation part but my mind is already so active that my theory is that if my brain gets overloaded I lose control. I just don't think I need something to help me be enlightened.

You don't need anything but yourself believe in yourself that YOU and YOUR mind can achieve what you so desire without a foreign substance.


Marijuana is not for everyone. While someone might love it someone will get anxiety and get panic attacks.
I do suffer from anxiety but that I have ALWAYS been that way. If i smoke a sativa strain I start getting more anxiety (though not all the time) but If i smoke some indica I'll chill the fuck out

They say pain is weakness leaving the body, and a lot of the time healing is uncomfortable.

If you limit your use to tolerable levels and continue to use over time the anxiety will go away because that subconscious tension will be released.

I'm also an advocate for edible marijuana. Smoking is bad for the lungs and a tasty snack brings on a better experience than smoking. When I do smoke, I smoke spliffed joints (marijuana + tobacco). The mixture is easier on my lungs.

I've definitely gotten higher without drugs than with them, but even though you aren't denying the favorable effect you aren't promoting it's use.

Marijuana is also abused and has a diminished benefit when misused, but why punish people for elevating their consciousness, be it on a regular or irregular basis?


Well good question I think i'm pretty tired of the endless bias'd attitude of pot smokers they defend so irrationally it gets ridiculous we have already acknowledged the pro's but unfortunately i feel like it just makes people clumsy and stupid.
I mean elevating your conciseness what does that mean and what does that do? is it just a feeling? I mean unless weed helps you unlock hidden secrets of the universe it's just a feeling. I mean we as humans we know alot and the rest that we do not know is stuff that is nearly un comprehensible.

Because its not worth the risk. I mean the horror it caused me was something Ive never experienced before. But i will say this if i do dare to look at what I just said as a whole this process made me alot stronger.

I do feel you are probably right but I cannot take the risk again of relapse. sorry for double.

I'm sorry you had a bad experience, but your personal experience is the reason why my right to take that risk should be violated?

And by elevating consciousness, I mean it makes you appreciate the world and have positive insights about yourself and the world. I believe there is a purpose to life and that cannabis promotes that cause.

Not necessarily depends on what the verdict is. I mean I recognize there is many factors that are un known. I'm just saying lets think it though before legalizing it. If you had a child would you let your child use it? I mean if it is a natural god given harmless plant why not?. I mean nature has a wide array of toxins that will kill you right away. If you can't give it to a child does that mean it is still soooo good for adults? Like I said if it works for you and there is no nagtive effects im not seeking to take away the right. But even good candidates for it have had bad experiences with everyone i know who continues to smoke stated this.

10 seconds seems awfully long to hold in. I usually hold it in 1-2 sec and I dont take huge hits.

I got studies saying something and you got studies saying the opposite. Just proves that we should investigate this plant a lot more.


i mean.. there are no studies saying its not linked to testicular cancer or bullous disease

If you give marijuana to stupid people, they will remain stupid and probably bit more. But for me when I smoke, there's nothing I like more than reading a good book or educate myself.

I understand you had a bad experience but I also did in the past. Mostly caused by too strong marijuana or bad thoughts. If you have negative thoughts while consuming a drug it's only gonna make it worse.

Anxiety is better these times, I have a tip for when that happens. I listen to the pale blue dot by carl sagan. Idk but it just calms me and makes me realize we are nothing and there's nothing to worry about.
I''m currently on a break, and when I'll start again I'll mostly vape.

I had few experience with edibles all were great except the last one. We put wayyy too much in the brownies. Was WAY too stoned lol.

sigh

there are literally hundreds of studies saying how marijuana destroys brain cells.

But again - it is pointless to debate these things with a user.
