The key is balance. If you get into a lifestyle where you have to smoke a J before doing anything enjoyable, you're going to suck the life out of the original experience (of both the weed and the activity). Just don't let yourself fall into doing it every day ( the less the better), otherwise the "magic" is diminished the more you keep at it.

i don't even know anymore. i'm seriously thinking of quitting for good (after this last sack is gone of course :stoned: ).I have often pondered this myself many times. For me, its more of a financial problem because I cannot afford to smoke weed everyday. When I did smoke it almost everyday, it was generally schwag and even that was pricey for me. Hell I can barely afford an eighth of KB anymore with all my bills. So I am forced to smoke very little a month..maybe 2-3 grams a month. I can get 2 grams for $35 up North. :D

I love weed because it puts me in a trance like state and I can think of things more deeply. Thats why I use it. I don't use it to get "fucked up" or anything like some people do. They have no appreciation of the herb, and those are the people who usually drink or use other drugs in combination with it. I shun those people and I think they are retards if they do that.

It is your choice to quit smoking weed. I realize there are many financial and legal ramifications of this. Hell I'm in college and if I get busted, I loose my federal financial aid which is sick and disgusting my opinion.

Believe me if I had the financial resources or a garden, I would be smoking weed EVERYDAY!!!

I have a problem when people say use in moderation when it comes to weed because to me, weed is a Divine plant used for insight and should be used many times a day....everyday!! When they say use weed in moderation, it's like they are saying weed is the same as alcohol or cocaine, which is completely false.

i know exactly what you mean great spirit. i don't even really like to smoke with a group of people...unless i really know them...really really know them. i mostly smoke by myself in my room, at night with chill music playing...its like meditating. i hate to smoke and drink at the same time...tho people i know love to do both for some reason.

i never understood why people like to do that, for me its one or the other.

honestly, only you can answer this question. as with any drug, it affects diffrent people, diffrently.... for me, happiness... i guess maybe you could say at points i get down when i don't have it.. but i'm a manic depressive... i'm down alot... weed just helps open my eyes to the beauty around me, and appreciate it more... therefore i get out of being 'down' but don't take that the wrong way, i do not use it to hide my problems, or use it for anything like that... if you use drugs to 'hide' your problems, or yourself from the problems, it only compounds them and makes them worse.

Are you depressed right now without the weed? I'm willing to bet thats it.

Weed makes you think a lot, if your already depressed your gonna dwell on shit.

Simple as that. Quit if you want, its not for everyone, but weed alone will not make you unhappy. Live your life, fool :p

If weed brings you depression you should quit right now. Flush the weed you have down the toilet.

It brings me happiness and a spirituality when I have it.

i dunno...sometimes i think i have a split personality. do people with split personalities recognize their problem? i feel complete understanding of the universe when i'm high. when i'm not i feel depressed at times...not always though.

Weed never makes me depressed. It can only make me depressed if other people bring weed over and smoke it without me

dude you're going through what almost all seasoned vets of marijuana go through... questioning whether you really even want to do it anymore, or even why you do it in the first place.... i go through it all the time... do yourself a favor, trust me on this, take a month break, no matter how bad you want to do it in that time, just don't... dont' let yourself... things will be a whole lot more clear after that month is up..i garuntee it....

Sounds like your problem is a regular supply of weed.
As I am not a doctor I could not answer you question about split personality.

You seem completely normal to me. Everyone gets depressed at times. I also think everyone has different sides to their personality.

i still say, do yourself a favor and take a month long break no matter what, and not of just weed, any and all drugs...

I don't know about anyone else but after a few days from smoking weed, I get all angry, irritated, and almost depressed. I've been sober for a good couple of months, you could say on all natural high and I've been pretty content. But its been a few days and I feel burnt out, angry at every little thing and just plain stupid/zombie-like. I know it will pass but I realize now I'm only going to save weed for special occasions because I have to say that I do hate this stupid angry feeling that occurs automatically days after.

Id take slipknots advice and take a break, perhaps over doing it can really mess with your mind and how you feel during the day. You'll feel much better you're head will be clearer too.

weed makes me happy
im just lucky ive got homies to smoke me out and i know theyre happy when i smoke them out. homies smoke homies out, its a rule.
i sometimes go for a few days without herb, but this is rare.most of the time i'll get a call about some "pizza" and then im over at their house helping them "eat" it.

I have this thing about water.
I like it a lot. But if i drink too much it will kill me.

Moderation should be applyed to all things. I think most people would agree that there is an excessiveness that should be avoided when you enjoy the herb or anyhting else.]
