being social/ smoking weed

I am a highly sociable person at school normally, but ive been smoking a ton of weed over the past week. I havnt been high at school yet for some reason ive just been really socially awkward. Im unsure what to say and just dont have the social spark that I always have. Its accompanied by this self-conciousness even though I know that no one is judging me. Its only been this week when I smoked alot. Is it that or has staying up really late to smoke been whats buggin me?

Does pot effect how you guys socialize at all? for better or worse

well, i noticed that when i smoke alone very often and then smoke with friends, my mind treats it as i'm alone and i don't do much talking.

when i mix up who i smoke with a little bit (between friends and myself i mean) then i find that it doesn't affect me at all.

i don't think it's the pot that caused you to lose your social spark... consider what people have been talking about this week... maybe you couldn't really relate so you didn't have much to say? also social skills don't just disappear overnight. just do what you used to do in conversations.

i'm not a very extraverted person by nature but i can be if i want to be... marijuana doesn't improve my social skills at all but it brings me together with the person i'm smoking with naturally so it would seem that my social skills are better when it's just bonding :)

yeah marijauna kind of makes u friends o nits own. Just by smoking with a person usually makes u respect them a lil.

Actually pot makes me more open and more social, but if I smoke too much I like to not talk because I make no sense at all and it's hard to get my words out.

I'm kind of inbetween...

When sober, I'm usually fairly shy and quiet, at least around people I don't talk to on a regular basis.
Sometimes when I'm high, I find I can open up more and am more confortable talking with others. Other times, I kind of just want to go sit in a room myself and chill without anyone else to bother me.

i find that when im high i want to be left alone unless there is something to do or something that needs to be done, and i really hate talking to people who dont smoke and know your stoned because they act like your drunk and have no control and stupid shit like that, that pisses me off, makes me want to bitch slap them!

i have noticed that smoking has calmed me down so when others are talking i tend to listen more and not jump in, maybe thats what is happing to your!

Since smoking weed i have become more social and people laugh at my jokes and stuff more. I am a lot more comfortable in situations now that i wasnt in just a few months ago before i started.

SOmetimes but not usually

I've made so many friends through weed it's ridiculous.

When I first started I was a riot on weed, but after a few years of tokin, I find myself a bit more 'withdrawn' when around others. Although, when I get introspective, and philisophical, I tend to talk about it no matter how bizzare it may be.

I like smoking alone because it allows me to ponder things a bit more deeply,

It depends what I am smoking.If I smoke weed i'm all chatty and laugh alot but when there is no weed about and I have to settle for hash it makes me a bit quieter and I have a feeling it sometimes makes my depression worse :(

When im smokin with others I tend to be more social yet it depends who I smoke with, I have some friends that love to laugh and have fun while others just get real high and don't really talk and it's more of a serious high (which I dont like). I dont think weed really lowers your socialism but for me it increases it and I have made plenty of friends but when you make to many friends that smoke it becomes a problem and they start to rely on you too much and it tends to make me not socialize with them for a short time period and move on with my life and smoke with others.

Ya same here, also when im high im more confident and feel like i can just talk to whoever no problem, and i do.

I am usually quiet and a bit reserved. When I am around others smokers I tend to be more outgoing and talkative. It really depends on the situation.

Im talking about the times when you aren't high for those who have smoked a long time. Myself 3years.

Being socially drunk > being socially high

Easier to be social and drunk. When I'm high I'm usually not into partying.

if i go to school high i get kind of paranoid so i dont really talk that much cause im afraid someone will know im high but when im not high im pretty normal.

weed makes u sooo many firneds. Over the past year ive smoked with about 500 people like literally my whole school. Its tight
