Why is it that most people in our society associate smoking marijuana with making you lazy, unmotivated, stupid, etc. when my experience has been that it actually expands my thinking and makes me more productive and motivated. The complete opposite of what is typically said. Does MJ affect me differently than most people? Why is that?
Everyone has diff. highs and tolerances towards cannabis, you can't assume that every weed you ever smoke makes you motivated, because they make weed that can be a cerebral uplifting high (may be what you smoke) and then you got the weed that gives you the "couch lock" where you don't want to do shit....When I smoke "mids" most of the time it makes me "couch lock" or gives me a headache, but when I smoke some killer weed (some dro) depending on when it was harvested, it gives me more of an uplifting high and i've had the same strain of killer and it gave me "couch lock" So presumably a lot of times it's all about the strain, genetics, harvest time (trichome cloudy:amber ratio), % of THC....There are many factors kinda hard to single out 1 reason.....Just take everything into consideration....I'm no expert but these are just some things I have learned from this wonderful forum site!
Marijuana enhances your current mindstate, if you're lazy than you'll just be more lazy. If you're smart it certainly won't make you stupid.

well, if you read all the posts in marijuana websites, you will see lots of 'lazy, unmotivated, and stupid' people :D ... put me in the 'unmotivated' category ... after 57 years of 'giving a shit', I'm about drained dry ... :jointsmile:Quote:

Its prob because of the burnt out affect that everyone gets...face it, when your burnt out, your definitely not in the mood to go for a run or do your algebra homework are you? hehe:jointsmile:
Ironically, I currently do both of these things high and more.Quote:

I on the other hand am quite open about it, as are some younger people..I'm not ashamed, however the majority of pot smokers are not willing to let anyone know what they do on their time..Quote:
