Tired?

[Buck268]

Is anybody else tired of smoking pot? Tired of the dirty looks people give you when they find out you toke? Tired of the antisocial feelings? Tired of the brain-drain and lack of motivation?

I am. But I still haven't quit. I wish it was about the money, I'd quit over night like last time (oxymoron? maybe...) but for some reason I can't quit anymore. Maybe I've quit and come back again too many times, maybe I'm just a little out of it right now... I dunno.

All I do know is if I go a day or two without toking I'm a totally different person. And I like that person better...

Am I crazy, or am I right? Hopefully time will tell.

I refuse to give into the expectations of society. If people don't like it, fuck em. I'm moving to Holland in a couple years anyways.

I've tried my best to be objective in my evaluation of smoking, but I keep coming round to the same conclusion. That I need to stop smoking. My post above ain't no governement rhetoric, its my own personal observations.

I must be fucking retarded or something. Maybe I am, I did do a lot of other shit besides smoke....

BUCK.....m8 if you want to have a break from toking then good for you m8, cos I know there has been times that I wonder why I do it, but then pain hits and I'm no longer wondering! At the end of the day my friend it is mind-over-matter.....just say to yourself "I don't mind and it doesn't matter". If you like the person you are when not smoking then only you have the power to be who or what you want to be, you are in control of your future....

Just take a break, man.

That's what I used to do. I'd just take a break for about 4-7 days while working out and drinking water. My breaks were mostly to lower tolerance, but also because I felt I had to stop smoking so much.

And let me tell you, after those breaks, that first hit is the greatest. Tastes so sweet, mouth starts watering, mmmmmm-mhhhhmmmmm!!

When I don't smoke... it gets rough... I tried to stop for a few days this week. Didn't sleep for 3 days. Felt like I was on coke.

Went to Physics on Day 2 of no smoking, after being up for about 30 hours. Even tired as I was, the physics work was so incredibly easy. Its like I just saw how to fit things together and eveything just... clicked...

Seems to do that whenever I clean up for a bit. School would be jokingly easy if I didn't smoke and kept up with my school work (and Istudying Mechanical engineering)....

But when I don't smoke, I have an attention span of under 3 minutes. I'm not exaggerating at all. Couple that with the worst insomnia you can imagine, and well... I'm about ot go fire a bowl

Sounds to me like you already know what would be the best thing for you to do m8......

[Buck268]

Your right... I do. I'm actually pretty bright about things, usually know the correct option to choose of whats laid in front of me.

Seems I rarely do that which I know I should, though...

I think some people are better off only toking on special occasions, that keeps it fresh, and keeps it from interfering with your life. By the way, those effects you described when you stop smoking for a while, are the mild withdrawal symptoms everyone gets (though its not exactly the same for everyone) when they quit, or take a break. The same thing happens to me when i take a break, after I've smoking for a long time.

Damn i hear what your saying man, i think me daily smoke keeps me sain, just about. If i go a few days without a smoke i get insomna, nausea, can't eat properly and im generally im just a f8cking asshole to everyone...
problems is smoking kills my motivation and makes me lazy so i end up slacking off college work, which i really hate because i know this is my chance to make somthing of myself.
The key is moderation, when i have work or college ill just have a few bongs in the evening which will help me sleep and eat and i wont have a stone over the next day.On my days off i'll smoke as much as i want and just chill with some mates or whatever. So maybe if you just cut back on your smoking you wont feel so tierd all the time and have problems with motivation, moderation works for me.

peace.
