how has pot affected the rest of your life?

[JeKo]

Weed has opened up my mind to a whole new train of thinking, extended my social life greatly, and helps me relax and stay stress free.

Weed has made my life better, in more ways than one. One thing I do like is Nature a LOT more, like I could just be outside all day. It has made me more productive, smoking got me back into skateboarding and basketball, (I've actually lost weight 'cause of smoking...^_^) I'm doing better in school, I can focus more, and it takes the stress of all my life away, nowadays I'm just chillin where ever I go not really caring as to what my so called 'problems' are doing. Like I could care less about shit I usually obsessed over.

So it's been all good for me. (And I'm getting a job soon)

Yea to wat everybody said already, i can play catch n do sports better b/c everything is in slow motion n everything juss seems "right", it makes me think of things in a different perspective, and music sounds better wen blazed, but it makes me feel unmotivated n lazy after each session, i think that laziness is the only downfall

Weed made me less depressed....but helped bring out my psycotic side more....but overall I'd say positive....it is a plant that I respect....

[biohazard]

sometimes i get really lazy and procrastinate a lot (ok well maybe a bit more often than sometimes haha), but if i know i need to do something important ill take a smoking break or make sure i do whatever i need to do right (high or not, either way). oh yeah and i suck at everything physical when im baked. i have a really active lifestyle, but when im baked i cant even play soccer.

I basically live for Cannabis, me and Cannabis are one. It's so amazing. I still have a normal life and plan to get a good education and all of that but it's just my thing. Some people enjoy modeling cars, some people enjoy basketball, some people enjoy swimming, me..I enjoy Cannabis .

i used to be out of control with the smoking, and other various drugs, but thats in the past. Yeah weed used to be a bad thing... From others point of view, me i was having the time of my life. I have since then come to terms with the facts of life and have straightend my priorities out. I still smoke weed, but now its in more moderation, and thats a good thing.
weed help me relax and concentrate, mainly on schoolwork. It has made me more comapassionate and understanding of others. It calms me down especially after "violent episodes". Normally i would be very judgemental of others but the weed has helped that, i try to see everyone i meet as a possible friend. It helps relive stress and helps me sleep. I have scoliosis (curvature of your spine) i dont experience pain from it too often but the marijuana helps eliminate whatever pain there is. The herb has also awoken a deep appreciation of art in all forms, be it music, painting, drawings or poety. Weed helped me turn from a loud mouth arrogant asshole who you would probably hate if you werent in my circle of friends into a not one of those things i just said. yeah its time to get high.

I am a lot more productive when I am high, because why bother being lazy? I am already high so I do good things like clean my room, work out, or just talk to people about deep things. I also have a small negative though I started skipping classes to go blaze, but I still think its a more positive effect, beisdes I only skip studies :hippy:

When I'm sober, I'm unproductive and lazy. When I'm high as fuck, I usually like to do the things that I wouldn't like to do when I'm sober like homework for example.

i'm a lazy and unproductive person to begin with but the pot probably makes it worse. but i've also been dealing with anxiety all my life and since i've started smoking its been better. its done some good and some bad.

I am constitutionally anxious myself. Especially when I smoke around other people. I try to possess the nervousness instead of letting it get me down. It usually backfires though. Some say that marijuana heightens your anxiety, but I'm stubborn and continue to smoke. No diagnosis. No change.
