Weed really potentiates my emotions, so I try hard not to think about anything negative in my life. It's a surefire way to bring me straight down. Focus on what's going on around you like the conversation, the music, the sex, etc.

I do the exact same, it'ts like i transfrorm into this good for nothing brain dead useless unsociable cunt when really stoned around unfamiliar people! It's like my brain puts up this automatic fuckin barrier "Chiill man don't say much you'll do sumin stupid coz your fucked you'll make yourself look a prick"!! It's a state of paranoia bro i believe?? correct me if you think im wrong!! I think that this is one of the problems i imagine many regular smokers come accross during there short but sweet smokin career, but it;s sumin we can iether ignore or try and combat!

Personally, i think i do a pretty good job these dayz of just ignorin the fact that i ever get paranoid and totally dismiss is as merely gettin to stoned! It works for me for now, lol but one day when im avin one of them real philosophical dayz, i might just decide to do sumin about it!!
