Just like the thread title says, how has mary jane changed you?
It changed me in many ways, it also broadened my music listnening and i now listen to things such as bob marley nd techno wen before i only listened to Rap.
It has also made me think about things in different ways even when im not high. lol What about You?
:rasta:
It showed me how crappy everthing really is. . . . but it makes me laugh so it's O.K.
I like everything I used to like even more. I feels it has raised my conciousness and iq level. a baka baka
Thats kinda what I mean, it just helps me find flaws in things like bands, movies, books, or just things that I enjoy doing. . . It's still fun to do them, sometimes more, to me I just think if they were stoned they probly would not of made the little booboo's. . .
i see things differently and express my opinion more
as if this thread came up.
i was justing thinking about that last night (whilst really really baked, maybe a bit drunk too).
my personality would definitly not be what it is today without weed. It's mind expanding. it teaches self learned lessons. gives you a new point of view on things. i'm a successful product of this profound psycoactive. so in a strange way, i'm marijuana. i am marijuana biatch.
It has improved my school grades (I'm 16 and in grade 11), given me a new and deeper outlook on life, a keen interest in philosophy, and in general an improved memory and intellect. I thank Mary Jane very much for it.
it has helped me improve my grand theft auto, super smash brothers, guitar hero, and tony hawk skills.
ive let go. it helps me live a (for the most part) stress-free life, im more creative, understanding, tolerant, open-minded, relaxed. i can chill out and not get worried about things that arent a big deal, i can see past the little shit. its brought me away from organized religion bullshit and towards what i feel are more meaningful and interesting spiritual paths (maybe psychedelics had more of an effect on that one). it definately had a positive impact on my life
it has def given me a different perspective on everything. it is also great when i am stressed out. it does make me a bit more lazy but only when i smoke too much.
It allows me to not be so irritable. Even after I'm not baked anymore, I'm very calm, and happy. Before I started smoking, I had a very short fuse. Now I'm more tolerable of everything, and I just like to flow with the world around me. Also, I have insomnia. It helps me get to sleep within minutes of lying down. Best sleep aid I've ever had, hands down. Prescription drugs left me tired and down the next day. Not Mary Jane ;). Unfortunately I haven't been able to get any for about 2 1/2 weeks now! I'm very bored. L8r. Take a hit for me, all.
well actually, it did fuck with my head a little. Mostly because i found out I'm a one hit wonder the hard way, and spent like 6 highs completely fucked up to the point of insanity. I noticed that smoking makes me more observant, which made me realize my weird rituals which ultimately has led me to schedule an appointment to be checked for OCD. I kind of feel like pot has brought it more to my attention, which might have been a bad thing. I had been in a great mood for the past 6 months, then i started smoking more and more, and then all of a sudden i have had this realization, and i feel I'm slipping more and more into depression as the days pass. I see things as black and white, and so events such as getting upset and breaking down in front of my family on my 18th birthday yesterday has occurred. Now i have to deal with all the "are you ok" every 5 fucking minutes, its driving me crazy.
I don't know were this is going to lead me. I took all last week off and didn't smoke, it just seemed to give me more anxiety than usual, maybe because i actually noticed it, and realized what was going on. I will continue to smoke, because it does liberate me free from all the negative vibes flowing through my environment.
Was weed a bad decision for me? I can't be sure, i guess time will tell.
it really helped me get out of deppresion when no anti-depesant worked and only made it worse. It truley got me to enjoy life more. Then when i started growing i just loved and loved it so very much. It has truly given me a passion but its still ileagal. it also helps me with school and some bad back pain i have somehow developed.
It hasnt really.. its just somethin fun to do.. i would say it made me more laid back but iv always been laid back tho
It's helped me beat my bust-a-nut record at 23 seconds.. jk
I couldn't have said it any better, besides the psychedelics part which I haven't done yet.Quote:

saved me from my many years of being an alcoholic. Has also really helped with my anger problem i USE to have.
It turned me into a lazy piece of shit. And it has lowered my lung capacity, but it certainly has given me some unforgettable times.
I know alot of people who have turned to other drugs because of cannibas, but that shit dont work with me and most other people i know so i continue to smoke =)
Made me chill out a little bit more. It has also been a nice way to drain off my extra cash.
It just makes me happy :rastasmoke: :rastasmoke: :) :rastasmoke: :rastasmoke:
A very good point. Now that I think about it I don't think I would mind trading a few months or years of life for some unforgettable times. I mean, it's not like you know when you're dying.Quote:

You know, I couldn't quite tell you. The changes I've had, I have a number of things I could think to attribute them to.
I can say, it's put some space between me and some of my no-drugs/alcohol type friends who don't know I do it, as we quit relating as much. If anything it actually makes me work harder, as I quit stressing so much when I'm high. However, if I begin to do it too much it does lead to me not caring as much, hence doing less.
It's all about balance.
I became more excepting about different people and places. Things I thought were bad because they were different, now Im just chill and open with everything.
shouldn't this be in the experiences section! good question though...
I feel that it made me more chill and it has helped me reflect on life.
Enhanced my social life & made me more of a relaxed person.
Honstley smokin bud completely changed my life. But for the better. I also started listening to more types of music. It helped me think clearer and decide what i wanted to do with my life. It has really helped me alot with my ADD. It sorta levels out my brain and slows it down a bit so that i can really concentrate. Before i smoked ganja i was always hatin on potheads. But now i realize that it doesnt matter what someone does with their personal life. It doesnt change who they are. Its also made me accept things for what they are. I dont worry about shit to much anymore. It made me realize that shit happens and you just have to deal with it. Worrying about shit just makes you think its worse thain it is.
This is an awesome thread.
Ive had two different periods of pot smoking in my life... the first was when i was 14, i started smoking with a friend and it became almost a daily thing...i became the typical pothead that these anti-drug organizations show, stopped doing school work and shit, when i was 15 i quit
i didnt start smoking again until i was 21, this time around weed has changed me for the better. Im now in college earning a masters degree in acupuncture and herbal medicine, i would have never choosen this career if i hadnt re-developed my interest in weed, Im 22 now and on my way to earning a 4.0 which im striving to get just so i can say "hey i smoke weed and look how i did in school" aside from that i want to someday be known as one of the best american acupunturists out there and i cant do that with bad grades. Weed has changed my girfriend a lot too...shes going into the same career as i am and it has helped her exponetially with depression, insomnia and back pains from being hit by a drunk driver.... aside from all that it of course gives us killer highs and fun times on the weekend
I'm more relaxed. I meet wayyyyyyy cooler people <- thats a big one (like ya'll here)
And last but not least I LOVE MARIJUANA i just love smoking it, looking at it, feeling it, tasting it (occasionally)...
I absolutely can't WAIT till i can grow it... I'm going to be a very loving daddy :jointsmile:
it has made me lazy and have interest in Satan
it has made me see life as it is..shitty
its broadened my music tastes...i'm now ready to listen to practically anything at least once. I also feel that although it hasn't dulled my intelligence it probably has worsened my performance academically because its made me more apathetic towards the schooling system.
definitely made me calmer and more productive. Learned to chill out a bit more when problems arise. And i too feel as if I have been let in on some insightful life changing spiritual herb.
