Why do you get high?

[Blitzed]

During a little smoke session today, me and some buddies got wondering, why do we smoke like we do. Ive been smoking since the 8th grade, and it has made a major impact on my life. All for the good of course, minus the thousands of dollars its made me spend. Its made me more social, more intellectual, more fun, I just feel like a better person. If I dont have some of my daily medicine, i just dont feel I run as smooth through out the day. Its the oil for my creaky gears.

So I guess the reason I get high, is it just makes the day so much better.

Whats yours?

[geonagual]

Cuz its good:thumbsup:

[smokerofweed420]

Its the perfect way to unwind.

[invision]

i get high to smoke pot :bigsmoke:

[Mohksha]

It makes every night an enjoyable one. Every night.

[THClord]

Weed certainly has made me a better person. I used to smoke because of that. Now, I do not think I have much more I can discover about myself through weed, so that's out.

I thought this would be an easy question, but it's fucking hard!!!!! shit!


Ok, I got it. I smoke, because I want to bond with the people I smoke with, and this is the best way to do it.

[Hilder420]

hmm thats a can of worms u dont want opened...

[iNHALE.xHALE.]

numerous reasons, the most simple being because its just relaxing

[ipodguy]

usually to help me sleep and laugh

[texas grass]

flavor
feeling
stress
dealing with idiots
ect
ect

[I Justburn 247]

overall just an enjoyable experience resulting in good friends happiness and a better state of mind..

Stay high

[poiuyt]

It's relaxing after a long day of bullshit.

[miley]

Cause being sober sucks and I dont care for alcohol that much.

[THClord]

Dude, I can't get this question out of my mind.

In the end I think it is that I am bored. And it is something I am used to.

Like WTF?



Today I bumped in to this girl I went to class with last year. I looked at her Facebook. She writes "I don't like people who need alcohol or weed to have fun." I am not one of those people, but she has a point.

What I'm saying here is that I do not want to "need" weed. But, based on the reason I smoke I'm on a bad path.


I think I might take a break.

[beachguy in thongs]

I get high as a side-effect...from this wonderful panacea (in my case).

Maybe you dont really need a break. Do you really need to be high to have fun. I know I dont, but thats just me. I just makes everything more fun.

[Reefer Rogue]

Because i enjoy it, thus happiness is a key fundamental part of life and in some people's opinion, the most important aspect of all.

[CultureCherryPopper]

Originally I smoked because it was new and intrigueing. Now I smoke to unwind after work or interact with friends, but mainly to explore myself and the world with a fresh, clear perspective. Marijuana and its culture is wondrous and vast, with something new always to be discovered. For those tired of smoking, try taking a break and beginning a grow of your own. The buds of your labor are well worth it.

[skatin_foo15]

Because I love cannabis and it loves me...

[jagarr]

^truth

[hero3279]

It makes me happy.

[jagarr]

i already don't like this girl. she doesn't have a point. a statement like that is meant to bolster her image aaaand thats it. it doesn't offer any support to people who do abuse alcohol or mj to any degree. shes already alienated me by brashly spewing such an opinion without cluing me in as to why. a quick 'because my dads an alcoholic' or 'because my mom blew my gerber baby food money on the sticky' would make me more sympathetic. is it any of my business? normally no, but now that she waged public war on my precious green it sure as hell is.

if she had given a reason (and yes i feel like i deserve a reason why someone doesn't like my beloved mj, damnit) then alright, i respect that i guess. but don't put down things i enjoy just because it makes you look better to the corporate goombas that happen across your myspace while they scrutinize you as a person based on a piece of paper with wherever university you slutted out at and some past crappy jobs on it.

and whatever happened to people quietly believing in whatever they wanted to believe in WITHOUT involving literally every other living organism they've ever encountered? so you don't like alcohol or pot... thats wonderful, but the one trillion randoms in your 'social network' consisting of strangers you only know from the internet or that you met like three times at parties don't need to get their recreations bashed so you look better to your mom who stalks your facebook from your sisters' account.

[hero3279]

Well said Jagarr. Sounds like your friend is just narrow minded.

She is actually saying that she does like people that need alcohol or weed to have fun. She's not one of the people that hate them, so it's all good.

-Why do you get high?

The THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol), when smoked or injested, is absorbed into the bloodstream to give you the high. You get high because you either smoked or injested marijuana, containing THC.

[liquidenigma]

First it helps to relieve my joint pains also have nerological damage to my right hip so it feels like its on fire all the time .Second it has a mellowing effect that i like when i watch movies or listen to music also great for playing video games!

[xcrispi]

Because I can . :D

This girl is really fun. It's like every minute I spend with her is all laughing. Too bad she already has a bf. :(
Let me rephrase what she meant. She doesn't like it when someone is boring sober. That's understandable, isn't it?

[Flesh420]

Chorus

Why do i stay high? (x10)

[DRO Boy Fresh]

I smoke cuz its relaxing and lets you forget (or just not think about) any kind of bullshit thats going on in your life. Its one of the best parts of my day, every day :jointsmile:

[GreenGiant07]

Releaves my chronic nail biting and finger biting disorders, keeps my OCD in check and lets me relax. I'm a person basically functioning on how other people feel about me rather then myself, so I do it so I can be myself, when I'm not high, as strange as it sounds, it feels as though I don't have an identity, constantly appealing to others so often I forgot how to be me.

[greatish.ten]

1. I'm from the Bay Area.
2. Life is awesome. It just makes everything that much better.

[JMRinFLA]

The day just goes more smoothly if I toke a little. I rarely get baked, I usually smoke enough to get a mild buzz (2-3 hits) and go on doing my thing.

[PaperTigers]

its made me more social, can think about stuff deeper (life, religion, etc.) makes EVERYTHING more fun (like everything lol), helps me forget about bad shit thats goin on, and i just get antsy if i dont smoke for too long.

[FireTheft]

i don't smoke all that often....so it's something to look forward to. it's fun. my life and job can be stressful so it helps me with stress and helps me unwind. it's fun to smoke and just hang out with friends, listen to music, talk about life....just have deep cool conversations.

[Kenn]

Cause i choose to live life high and happy.

[angry nomad]

Why do I smoke? Because it feels good!

I used to get drunk, but weed feels 10x better. There is no hangover, no vomiting, no loss of inhibitions (I get talkative, but I don't act like an idiot). It also helps with ADD.

I smoke to relieve back pain, and it is helping the pain of a broken foot a lot more than Vicodin. (I built up a tolerance to it after only three days.)

It also helps me get a different perspective on things.

It also gets me creative. I can be creative when sober also, but weed relaxes me, so I just let the creativity flow.

I like to smoke a lot, but I don't like to be stoned all the time.

Socially, it's pretty cool. I would rather chill with a group of people who are all high, than people who are all drunk.

[Silent Wolf]

Quite a few reasons.

1.Taste and smell

2.Relieve stess and pain

3. Makes music sound so much better.

4.Makes me hornier than a dog with 2 bollocks!

ect....ect.

[Coelho]

I smoke cause i love being high!!!

[Nailhead]

medical reasons only, otherwise I wouldn't because getting high isn't worth losing my job. but losing my job isn't as bad as losing my life, so I use for that and just have to pray I don't get caught and loose my job. I'd like a different job, but currently there is nothing else that pays as good as what I'm doing, so till I get back to school and get edumicated, I'm stuck hoping I don't fail a random drug test

[treetopab70]

I do it because it is the right thing to do. No better way to enjoy the day. I am loving my life.:joint1::buzz_saw::420thought:

[extramadchicken]

i get high to escape the painful reality of my life
a day without weed really sucks
even though i have many friends, girls think im a creep cuz i act wierd and violent
my dad is an alcoholic and he is always fucking pissed and my mom conmstanly bitches
i never leave the house unless i have to go to school because my mom doenst trust me with my friends cuz she think were gonna smoke weed which is ussally true.
i dont have tv and the only computer i have is the one at my uncles
so i mainly get high is to get away from the "pains" of my life

[Fizz E. Pop]

I smoke because it takes me away from all the bullshit that life has to offer and gives me quality stress removal time with my friends.
