I'm a bit of a Paranoid Android

[ATrain]

I was hoping for a few suggestions from people. Whenever I'm smoking up I get crazy paranoid! I'll think I hear my parents coming home even if they aren't due in for hours, or that I've suddenly lost my stash etc.

I'm sure other people out there get a bit paranoid so I was hoping for maybe a few helpfull hints to reduce the panic.

Thanks!

Yea for sure parents are a biggy for me to. But if I get paranoid and dont know what time, or not sure at all even if it could be for hours ill call up my dad to see what he is doin and shit. But do think of a good reason to call. I call to see if they fed/walked dog or cats. Or had a question about the laundry or to let him know I MIGHT go out later and to just let him know. Or possibly dinner options. Then when I know he aint gona be home for a while AND got a time-frame I relax alot.

shit... i always get crazy paranoid when it comes to weed, but sometimes you just gotta talk yourself out of it: "there's no reason to panic, it's the drugs, just RELAAAAAAX!"

works every time.

oh and also, this might help: make sure everything is set up before you get stoned. right after you smoked, put away your stash, etc, before it kicks in hard. that way, you can have the peace of mind you didnt missplace/forget things.

You just need to be more professional man. For some reason I get the feeling that you're a sloppy smoker. Make sure everything is perfect before taking even 1 rip, I mean perfect. Set up your stuff, make sure all chores and things to do are out of the way before you start smoking, that way once your high, there's nothing to worry about!:thumbsup:

Yeah man, dinner is a great one. Before my parents go out I always try and figure out if they'll be home for dinner cause I hate making my own dinner, well I don't mind if it means I get super stoned before hand. But that lets me know if they'll be home beteween 5-6.

Also, know where your parents are going. When my mom grocerie shops, I know she goes to walmart, which is about 20min away. So thats 40min round trip. I make sure I'm all done smoking in 30min FOR SURE, but usually I'll finish up in 15min, make sure I put eye drops in and all that good stuff before the 40min is up.

That works good cause honestly no way in hell is she gonna be home in 40min, she won't go there and come straight back. That way, I'm high, got everything set so I can just enjoy my high untill she gets back. And continue to enjoy it when my parents are home as long as they don't seem to suspect a thing.

So seriously try that. I wear my stop watch even. I'm very precise. Just make sure you know times BEFORE your high, cause afterwards time loses meaning and you'll forget "its 30min? eh, she can't be home for another 10min, plus she'll be gone for like another 45min on top of that" and before I know it my parents are home after an hour and I'm no where near ready to face them high. I got it under control now though. Just gotta make sure you know what has to be done and when.

can u not smoke urself out of it?

[orangeman]

I dont get paranoid for no reason but what would usually be a "what if" turns into a "Oh shit" as in I actually think it's happening, like one time I smoked in the bathroom while taking a shower and no one was there. Then my dad came home and I was like "oh shit, fuck fuck he's gonna smell the smoke" and I was so fuckin paranoid, even when I got out of the shower I went straight to bed to avoid him lol! But, no one ever smelled it..

[Frivolous248]

Yeah man...I can't tell ya' how many times I've wen't to bed cause I was paranoid when I saw the light in the hallway come on, or heard my dad walkin' around.

Especially when he has come in my room as late as 1am before to ask me a simple question, cause he knew I was awake so he didn't care.

The answer to your question is Zanax.

"Zanies, Zanies, Zanies!!!".....

I always keep some on me just incase the "little anxiety monsters" creep into my bag of weed.

Mostly you just gotta chill though...It's all in yer head man.

It's harder for some folks than others. this usually occurs as you get older and carry on more resposibilities in your life. You start thinking about all that shit and when you get baked, it all tends to come to a head at times. Just chill!!
