smoking weed

[Xerneas]

does anyone else smoke, and if you do, what is your reasoning? does it make you feel better or worse? and does it help your suicidal tendencies

I just do edibles now. I was vaping for a few years too, but it damages my singing voice, so have given up smoking. For me, it makes me more calm, less agitated. More able to speak and more functional. Maybe I have some autism/aspergers, I have seen it can be helpful for that. I feel more human on it. Re suicidal thoughts, it gave me some time off them for a few years in very high doses. The doses were so high, I hallucinated constantly, but could also maintain a normal life (while hallucinating). It was a million times better than my mind without the weed.

At the moment, I am not feeling suicidal (thank you Ketamine), but I do still get agitated, and the weed helps me with that.

I smoke and eat them because they make me happy and help my ctb thoughts and not give a shit about them. I can't do it now though anymore because my mom is threatening to kick me out if she catches it in my system through drug testing me or if I get into a car crash because she thinks she would lose her house to pay the "other person's medical bills" since her name is still on my car since I can't afford to completely take it over yet and she'd think I'd automatically be at "fault" because I had it in my system :\

In general, she's just really ignorant about weed along with my other immediate family members for other reasons.

one of my favourite facts about weed is that Queen Victoria used it for her menstrual cramps. One of the reasons I've been keeping my edibles in a Queen Victoria tin.

For me though, the only thing that helps my cramps is wine. Weed doesn't do it for me.

I started with 14yo n now I'm 19 and yep it helps a lot but it depends of how ur body n mind deals with it, don't try it alone if it's ur first time, know your limits and recognize if it's not helping or health anymore, remember that drugs r not a solution for what u have n mixing it with emotional or mental diseases may be dangerous

Yep, in my late 20s and smoke multiple times a day. I wish I could get edibles or vape carts but I'm in the UK, so I spend a fuck load of my pay every month on overpriced bud.

I know if I cut it out cold turkey I'd be better off in a months time, but fuck not sleeping properly for even one night, let alone countless sweaty nights going out of my mind with boredom.

It just makes me okay with how bland and shit life really is.

Weed is my only friend.
Hybrid for pain
Indica to zone out.
Sativa sometimes
Thankfully the backward thinking of the US is finally catching up with most of the world and States have been legalizing the use of recreational weed.

I take edibles for pain.
They're the only way i can relax a little- and the only things that dull the agony- my dr won't prescribe decent pain meds…
They should help me sleep too (the edibles) but i've barely slept since the beginning of May. So i guess not… or maybe they're responsible for the only sleep i get.
Weed is legal where i am, so that helps with supply..

I used to be the biggest stoner, but lately I've been having low blood pressure and weed is making it worse, so I'm on an extended tolerance break :(

I vape, but without inhaling into my lungs.
Sometimes I mix CBD oil into my liquid.
That helps me to relax.

 

[Free_me]

It's probably one of the few things keeping me going. I've been a habitual daily smoker for 2+ years now, I find the more time I spend stoned the less time I think about anything negative, CTB, etc. To me it's a great distraction from this shitty existence.

Last time I took a break was the worst week in a long while, so I try to avoid it as much as possible.

I think grass is very pleasant and relaxing from time to time.

With daily use, it unfortunately loses its positive effect - like many other things.
A friend of mine smoked daily for years and then changed more and more.
In the end, he was almost emotionless and listless and also tried to quit - but that didn't really work.

I personally smoke weed to try my best to maintain my suicidal ideation and attempts sometimes I just lay there and just think or just stay lost and avoid of darkness honestly despair because it feels like you're not good enough or you no matter how much you try your best isn't enough.

However when I smoke again it keeps them at Bay but not too much just enough to where I can just lay down and try my best not to do it it's a it's a small deterrent but a deterrent no less

They would make period cramps worse. Weed can help during childbirth because it makes those cramps stronger.
I eat and imbibe weed daily. I use it to forget. To forget what a shitstorm my whole life is

In my experience, you can smoke all the weed. And do all the drugs you want. But eventually that dopamine feeling is just going to wear off... then what? Your suicidal again... it's only a temporary vacation. Not saying it doesn't work but eventuality you'll come right back down to reality

Yep that's why I never stop

lmaooo pretty much, cant die sober

 

[LittleJem]

Without weed bored, miserable, suicidal (on Prozac, more energy, less suicidal but still suicidal if that makes sense). With weed, less bored. With Modafinil can get stuff done. How many more days do I have to endure till I can die. Just trying to tidy my stuff up so I can exit.

 

[PeaceDeathLove]

Personally, weed does nothing to change my mental state.

 

[nightnightnitrite]

I use to think weed solved everything, I mean not cancer or anything of the sort but instead my mental problems. However after completely sobering up after being an avid smoker each day(I'd smoke before going in a store, eating, meeting up with family)l etc.) I realized weed made me forget everything, not solve the actual problem so now that I'm sober I feel even worse because I never processed all of the trauma I've had before smoking and endured while smoking. Everything was swept under the rug and now I don't know what to do. As for helping with suicidal idelation, yes it helps but only if you keep smoking and don't stop like I did:,) But weed is still a drug and everyone is different, so it might not do the same thing to you as it did for me!

honestly this sounds abit like me so i can empathize, smoking on/off for about 10+ yrs now haha

After years of smoking weed no longer helps me, it induces panic

 

[Mohkinstsis_falls]

I've explored weed ever since it was legal in my country. I'll smoke through a pack of pre rolls for maybe a week and take a break for a few weeks. I find my mind slows down to a comfortable level, and I'll feel extra cozy and relaxed. I would advise using edibles to start out with (lower dose) and do some shopping around for strains or types of products that works for you. It may take you a while.

 

[Alwaysbadtime]

I just get major paranoia and an intense feeling that I must end things immediately.

 

[Lifeless mindset]

Its funny how i had just got done smoking and this post was the first one i saw when i opened SS. Weed has been a huge part of my life since the age of ten. I grew up around a lot of stoners so it just came with the lifestyle everyone was living. Eventually I started to do more research and found the many benefits of weed and CBD and started using weed much differently..before, I would smoke because thats just what everyone does in my town. ( fun fact: my town was voted the most boring place in Michigan awhile back) but once I got older and depression hit me I started using weed to block out everything in my life and that wasn't really a healthy way to handle my problems in life. I felt like I was abusing the plant and I didn't feel like I should anymore so I quit for awhile..then I was like "well fuck.. what am I gonna do all day now?" So I started smoking again.

Unfortunately weed makes me paranoid. The first time I smoked I didn't do it right, lol, and so I didn't really get that high. Don't get me wrong though, I did get something. The next few times I think I still wasn't doing it quite right, but I got a lot higher and it was fine nothing amazing but nothing that got me too paranoid. Then a buddy of mine and I went for a drive and we both smoked in the car. He wouldn't tell me what kind of weed it was, but it messed me up bad. I was extremely paranoid and had to get a girl that I was friends with to come get me. Her and I went and ate and watched a movie, and eventually I chilled out.

Couple years later, my dad and I are drinking and he invites me to try out this fake weed. Dude... All of my anxiety literally started that day. It was horrible. I was shaking uncontrollably on the couch, paranoid as heck wanting to go to the hospital. I was so hot but my body was ice cold to the touch. It was insane. I didn't feel right for MONTHS after that, and honestly it took years and years until I was even able to be around it at all. I still don't smoke it, but I want to. I wanted to so bad the other day, but then I read the effects my medicine can have when mixed with weed and so I decided against it. I do love to drink, just don't like all the crap I am putting in my body to do it, but I will stick with that over weed since it gets the job done and yes, does help with my depression. Sometimes it also makes me more confident in CTB also... But hey I am still here.

TL;DR: No, I wish I could get out of it what others do but due to several factors it just makes me too paranoid so I would rather drink alcohol.

 

[Secrets1]

I weed!!!!! Medical has changed the game for me as I can choose whatever strain suits what I'm doing, generally dictated by time of day. It helps depression and anxiety. I vibe better on a personal level with others who smoke too, hanging out & smoking together aside. Guess in that sense I see positive social returns as well but it can also go the other way with people I used to love who now quit.
