how much do you smoke?

[naturalhigh]

hey

just wondering, how much on average would you smoke a day?

i try and do it like 2/3 times in one day (about 1/2 a bowl at a time) then stop for a day or 2 and jus repeat this process. im 14 n im kinda worried bout becoming depentant onit to relieve bordom cos its summer and im bored as fuck n i miss my gf like fuck aswell (till next sunday at least ).

PS. does any1 here no of any1 goin skitzo? or is that some exagerated propaganda bullshit?

[daZenfmeister]

Nope weed is known to make dormant or lesser psychological problems more pronounced.

[Ganj]

well, my funds are limited right now...i usually buy some weed, load a fat bowl and smoke it throughout the day. most of the time i'm smoking by myself and it takes a lot less weed to get me high, instead of having 4 other niggas hitting the pipe.

[MeatRulz]

im 14 also and if you dont think about going crazy it wont happen and i smoke a llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllot ull be fine unless u go to stronger drugs

[ermitonto]

PS. does any1 here no of any1 goin skitzo? or is that some exagerated propaganda bullshit?

Yes, that's exaggerated propaganda bullshit. Weed does not cause psychological problems. There might be some evidence that it can aggravate existing problems, but it can't give non-schizophrenic people schizophrenia. I personally don't think it's any more dangerous to your mind than, say, caffeine.

I usually smoke a gram or two every day, and I don't really do it in sessions. I pretty much always have my pipe around, occasionally toking on it.

[Sentinel]

Extremely heavy smoking for me is about 3 grams a day. I can only keep this up for a few days though before i green out and get sick for a couple days of not eating anything and coughing like hell, and feeling extremely sick. I can stay high for a day off a 0.5 gram.

[Fattie]

Well, i dunno how much daily but I would if i was snoop, and that would be an ounce and a half. Quote from one of his songs. Dont remember which one. But, Me and meat do the do when it comes to smoking.

that whole, "weed making you go crazy" is bullshit. have you ever seen reefer madness? if you haven't, i suggest you do. it's has a big factor on why marijuana is illegal to this day.

it's a pretty funny show to watch when your stoned, if i do say so myself.

[vicstar]

i buy it and smoke it non stop till its gone LOL all dya avin breaks in between with my m8s its all good but im 16 and dont have a job and just left skwl so dont get money as much now so its kinda gay so im gettina job 2moz lol

[sToNeDpEnGuIn420]

usually 3g-4g a day. Sometimes 5g-6g tho. Rarely 2g.

[koshea]

whatever i have

[daZenfmeister]

I smoke a bowl every few days sometimes I have to go a week or two without, not due to lack of weed but because I have a full time job and a parttime job. workin 50+ hours a week.

[Killa.Kali]

well i get 2 kinds of weed, mids and chronic, if its mids like an eigth a day, if its some kind maybe 2 grams a day

[ImStonedNILikeIt]

Well...here lately i've been smoking 1 bowl half in the morning and half at night, but yesterday,and today i finished a whole bowl in the morning,and one in the afternoon,and one at night......Damn stress....

[ermitonto]

Geez, it takes me at least a bowl before I feel a buzz coming on. Damn tolerance.

[chris420]

yeah tolerance could be a bitch mine is probably rock bottom by now, i havent smoked for about 2 weeks because im lazy to go out and buy some and im waiting a couple more days for my gums to heal a lil more before i start smoking again ( i got all 4 wisdom teeth out a week ago) but i usually smoke a gram or 2 everyday at times more.

[purp420]

i smoke everyday, if you do too you would understand how difficult it is to keep stock; not quite sure how much im burning in one day exactly but i would guess about a gram. btw just bumped ambien. i think ambien should have its own thread

[daZenfmeister]

I smoke eight kilos per day.

[Porkchop913]

Extremely heavy smoking for me is about 3 grams a day. I can only keep this up for a few days though before i green out and get sick for a couple days of not eating anything and coughing like hell, and feeling extremely sick. I can stay high for a day off a 0.5 gram.
damn u guys aint no real potheads gettin high for a whole day off of .5 gram
and heavy smokin aint 3 grams a day i smoke an ounce a day.



FOLKS LOVE

[mono repin]

Been smoking once per day, usually around a gram, could be more could be less. I buy in bulk and just smoke as much as desired.

... straight from erowid:
# mild to severe anxiety
# panic attacks in sensitive users or with very high doses (oral use increases risk of getting too much)
# paranoid & anxious thoughts more frequent
# possible psychological dependence on cannabis (in relation to the orginal post)

and most importantly
# can precipitate or exacerbate latent or existing mental disorders

It's not government bullshit. You can get fucked up in the head MORE by using marijuana. That means, that there is a risk when you start using it. Issues that you have that are small time now, could inflate to much bigger issues. So no, weed can't CAUSE schitzophrenia, but it can speed its onset... which is scary as well.

Pro-drug propoganda is just as sickening as anti-drug propoganda. Truth, is what needs to be spread, not rumors, heresay, personal opinions, and limited personal experiences.

[antinexus]

At my best, used to be 3-5 bongloads a day, probably around 3 grams between me and my roommate. Crazy nights, maybe smoke 7-8 times, depends on what friends are up to, and who's packin'.

Recently, though, closer to once a week - but then it's still 2 or 3 bowls.

[sheist]

i had a 1/5th of hydro.. since July 1st.. i'm still smokin it.. got prolly like a lil less than half left..

[Lily420]

3 to 6 bowls and im sober for maybe 1 hour during the am (i wake up in the pm btw).

well, you learn something new everyday. i was uninformed. thanks for that information.

[Oli]

When I have weed I'll smoke however much I have time to smoke, usually about a gram.

[Mirno Sctlnd]

Aye thats the same with me I smoke how much I wanna smoke if you have to take 2/3 bowls just to get through everyday I would say you have a problem and need to cut down.

[robert42]

Smoke about 2 - 3 g a day roughtly half a Oz A Week.

[HaZarD]

i smoke as much as i can

[naturalhigh]

thanks mono good response


mmm... my family has a history of anxiety and depression. shit. i get anxious like every1 does when something shit happens, hope weed doesnt screw things up more. im usually laid back n jus say fuck it but recently things that i usually say fuck it to have been in my mind more than normal

isit just coind=cidence that this has happened round the same time that ive started smoking???


thnaks

[ganjamania]

About 1-2 grams a day. When I do bongs all the time then find I need a break every so often, but I can smoke spliffs all day every day (& I would if money was no object). If ya got family history of depression then maybe u gotta think about not smoking too much & havin regular breaks, & prob no good being paranoid about it either

[mono repin]

thanks mono good response

...

I have my own issues that arrise when I smoke. I tend to get paranoid, and have had a number of panic attacks. They are kinda fun, in a real demented way, certainly not what I strive for but when they happen they are a ride. I think this stems from being a super paranoid person before I even touched weed.

I definately have seen some friends with issues get even more fucked up in the head when they smoke. In particular a friend who was beaten as a kid gets real fucking messed up in the head when she smokes, def borderline schitzo stuff.

Knowing is half the battle. I'm aware of what issue may/do arise and have weighed the positives/negatives and still smoke regularly despite some bumps along the way. Weed has done far more good for my mind than it has done ill... but obviously thats not a one size fits all statement.

Don't get overly paranoid about that shit, but paying attention to your mental health is a good idea, especially if you have mental health issues in your family.

[stoned247]

I smoke about 1g a day a bowl after brealkfast, lunch & dinner!!! right now im smokin sum sticky ass isis!!!!good shit!!!!!

[AquariusLady]

I smoke about an eigth a week. I work between part and full time and also take classes so I don't have that much time to smoke, but I smoke when I'm at home working on homework, and i smoke at night when i come home from work or class, and over the weekends when i don't have any work i smoke a lot!

[motahead]

Listen kids..

Mono Repin is right. There is bullshit on both sides of the question. Weed can cause more problems in people that already have them and after years of heavy use, you will have problems as anyone else who uses drugs will have. The problems caused by weed just may not be as severe.

You can't drug yourself up without having some kind of side effects HOWEVER compared to most other harder street drugs and even alcohol, weed is, in GENERAL, less problematic.

No, you can't OD on weed and if you smoke too much you won't puke your guts out like you would with alcohol.

BUT it can be a trap too. I've definitely had marathon smoking sessions, ripping bonghit after bonghit day after day. It is possible to over saturate yourself with THC. You can feel the effects later on. This also depends on your tolerance which is built up over time and the potency of the weed you are smoking.

I've also had anxiety/paranoia attacks when smoking too much and that is really the problem with weed. The trick is to not smoke your fucking brains out (which is fun) just because you don't really feel like anything will happen.

If you took a shot of liquor instead of a hit when your smoking, say after 20 hits/shots during the day you're going to be fucked up..the thing is with alcohol is that alcohol can shut you down by making you sick or making you pass out. Weed fucks with you too, just in a different way.

So, with all things, too much of anything will screw with your head, so it's better to try and moderate what your doing. That is hard when you have luscious greenery in front of you and you're coming down from the last hit an hour or whenever before(and the buds look so good that you want to eat them like candy.)

Remember you can figure out your metabolism for weed, just get high and see how long it takes you to start coming down and you want to smoke again. This is your body processing the weed..from the first 1-5 minutes when you feel AWESOME to the next 30-60 minutes when your feelin good to the next couple of hours when you feel good but not super high until the next five-six hours when you're just in limbo land (kinda out of it, feel ok but not real high anymore)

Point is, be smart and safe and remember that if you feel like you are addicted, you probably are..WEED can be addictive. It is only NOT considered addictive because the withdrawal symptoms are very mild compared to alcohol and other drugs. That only accounts for the PHYSICAL part of the addiction. The psychological element of the addiction is really the most important part because it's the hardest to overcome.

But have you ever felt like you needed weed? Do you know anyone who needs to smoke weed all the time to function? That's addiction. It may not be a "bad" addiction compared to other things, but it is an addiction nonetheless. If potheads and stoners were using alcohol instead of weed they would be alcoholics and drunks. Think about it.

This is not an anti-weed rant. I love it. But recognize your use of it for what it is.

like spm said,
♪why when i'm not high, does my life feel like it's missing something
i know that i must be high so that i can function♪

since i started smoking marijuana, i've noticed the anxiety steadily increasing. but my mind is strong enough to not be overwhelmed by it.

[I Need Money]

I smoke so fucking much. Like im just constantly hitting that shit. Oh im fourteen too.

[BluntArtist]

6-7 blunts a day...it's kinda sad. I'm trying to cut down a lil' bit..but it's tight being high 23 hours a day.
