is this normal?

[BurriedxAlive]

Alright I've been smoking regularly for about 3 years now...and lately I've been noticing that I get really self concious when Im high...and I get really uncomfterable, like I just want to go home and be alone. But I still act normal towards everyone around me, and I'll start thinking really deep about stuff...some real negative thoughts too

I've been controlling it by just trying not to think about stuff like that and enjoy myself...but any reason for the sudden oncome of emotions?
I take anti depressants too, I've taken them for about a year but they've never really affected my smoking habbits so i dont know if that has anything to do with it?

[NightProwler]

man it happen to me too. sometimes you think wayyy to hard about life and it seems so real and scary you just dont want to think about it anymore.

[P.E.N.G.U.I.N.]

Weed can react badly with some anti depressants. Don't take those fuckers, you're on the green goddess and don't need them.

[justinsane]

yeah dude, anything that has to do with depression is a no no in my book.... of like.... no nos...

man it happen to me too. sometimes you think wayyy to hard about life and it seems so real and scary you just dont want to think about it anymore.

This exact thing happened to me too one time when i was on shrooms, especially life after school, i almost had a bad trip beacause of it.

Man obviously this kinda thing can happen, it depends what type of person you are! Difererent individuals are more prone to becoming depressed when smoking i believe, if they already have a complex thoughts, and think philosophically all the time. In other words if your a more emotional more open and mentally active, then you can be affected!

I had this, and still stumble across problems from time to time! I believe weed can be a little bit like life itself. It's a lil like a roller coaster, in that you have many ups and also many downs! It's just u gotta think, are the positives out weighing the negotives? If they are then you really do have a bit of a prob, but nothing that cant be sorted if your willing to be honest, communicate with your loved ones and resolve your unhappiness if possible!!

Getting high is a hobby, hobbys supposed 2 make you happy bro!! If it aint happenin nower dayz for you for what ever reason, then maybe u should think about knockin the sweet sensi on the head man, or at least cutting down, or maybe making changes in your own live to make yourself a happier person. Of course you could just take the easy route short-cut and NOT go into such fuckin deep thought!! lol U can do it man i managed to combat it for now!

Happy smoking! :) pe@ce :rasta:

Happy smoking! :) pe@ce :rasta:Great post. I concur.

I get self-conscious when I'm stoned a lot too, and can sometimes make myself look really stupid in front of strangers by not saying much or anything at all. That's why I stick to smoking with people I'm comfortable with or by myself. I'm usually pretty outgoing.

Weed really potentiates my emotions, so I try hard not to think about anything negative in my life. It's a surefire way to bring me straight down. Focus on what's going on around you like the conversation, the music, the sex, etc. :cool:

EXACTLY

[TheAtomicPunk]

Get a girlfriend :p
I'm saying that the nicest way I can. When smoking, its best to have positive things right? What's more positive than having someone tell you they love you?

[daima]

SelfConscious ? Thinking ? Wowie. That dont sound so bad. I suggest that if that is what cannabis is doing to us then all should use it. Orrrrrrr...is that what scares those in power? a population that thinks. Outlaw that plant!!!!which religious leaders did in hypocrisy because they still used it to make bibles. Mmmmmmmmm
As you may already know, the Gnostics believed that the cannabis plant was the "Plant of kindness" the "Tree of Life", and those that used it were taught from within. The Gnositcs would ridicule the christians for using water for baptism instead of the holy annointing oil, which contained about 250 shekels of Kanehbosem(cannabis, about 7-9 lbs) Of course the Christians became quite angry, attacked the Gnositics and thought they had burned all the writings of the Gnostics to hide all evidence that pointed to a bogus religion, christianity. The writings have surfaced in Europe at the Nag Hamadi Library. Jesus himself was quite the stoner and in a few transcripts in the bible he becomes very angry at his diciples for hogging all of the Kanehbosem/cannabis oil.
Dont be afraid to examine yourself.
Dont be afraid to examine that which surrounds you.
Dont ever be afraid to make a fool of yourself once-in-a-while.
And, dont even think that you are the only one who makes a fool of themselves , here and there.
Cannabis is a wonderful human helper. It always has been, and it always will be. You live in a society who is constantly telling those who use cannabis that they are bad, no good, evil, dangerous, etc etc. Thier audience?

peace,
dai*ma :smokin:

Yeah, that is not rare. marijuana can intensify your emotions. I suggest always having something to do when high.

[GanjaASD847]

Yeah, that is not rare. marijuana can intensify your emotions. I suggest always having something to do when high.i totally agree because sometimes when i get high, i get anxious. i feel like i gotta do something before i explode.

[Das Boot]

Lately i've been getting paranoid as hell everytime I get high. Well smoke and go to the movies and my friend will say something like, "what movie are we going to see?" and I'll flip the fuck out thinking that everyone is going to figure out that were high or something. The worst part is I know I have no reason to go nuts but I do.

[Green Screen]

Thats normal, just stop taking anti depressants though. All those pills and shit they pile on you are extremely unnessesary, and often cause things that outweigh what they are trying to cure. Scientists find new side effects for pills every day so they make more pills to counter those effects and so on and so forth, just try to get over whatever you have on your own. Maybe a little Mary will help you along your way.

dude weed and zoloft dont mix

Co-Sign :)

I do the exact same, it'ts like i transfrorm into this good for nothing brain dead useless unsociable cunt when really stoned around unfamiliar people! It's like my brain puts up this automatic fuckin barrier "Chiill man don't say much you'll do sumin stupid coz your fucked you'll make yourself look a prick"!! It's a state of paranoia bro i believe?? correct me if you think im wrong!! I think that this is one of the problems i imagine many regular smokers come accross during there short but sweet smokin career, but it;s sumin we can iether ignore or try and combat!

Personally, i think i do a pretty good job these dayz of just ignorin the fact that i ever get paranoid and totally dismiss is as merely gettin to stoned! It works for me for now, lol but one day when im avin one of them real philosophical dayz, i might just decide to do sumin about it!!
