Habitual marijuana use
Recently I have been given many speeches about how marijuana is fine and dandy until it becomes habitual. I am going to be honest in saying that i have only stopped smoking for two days this summer, but I don't believe it really affects me. I still pay my bills on time, I missed one day of work due to lack of sleep, and I have only spent $30 of my money on weed. Now I understand I have only been an everyday smoker for a few months, but I haven't noticed any lasting effects. I was just fine today spending time with my parents, my brother, and his family without smoking. I have fun and I believe it is appropriate to enjoy myself. The question is, Where do I draw the line? Is getting high to go to work inappropriate? Is getting high to watch a movie out of line? Is it wrong that sometimes I get high and do nothing but talk to my friends? Where do you draw the line?
My personal rule of thumb is:
Its ok if it messes with your life a bit but,
If your life messes with smoking a bit, you have a problem.

Re: Habitual marijuana use
if you have fun, and dont get caught, does it matter when you do it? as long as you dont end up doing somthing you regret. if you have self control, you should be fine.

Draw no lines. Consume marijuana until satisfied.

I wasn't pointing out new information. This is a discussion board. I present a topic to be discussed and you respond. Generally it is best if both parties involved try to respond with something of substance. Everyone has a different moral code. I would like feed back as to where other people believe it is "wrong" to consume marijuana.

Good luck, you're chatting with a bunch of tweakers, heroin addicts, and 14 year old stoners.

It makes you lazy, damages your lungs, less self motivation, you masturbate a lot more, you get tired on the comedown equaling more laziness equaling less physical labor equaling less muscle development and with the added amount of food you eat when your high, you tend to gain a lot of weight or at least loose strength.
Everyone here knows the ACTUAL negative side effects.

Re: Habitual marijuana use
I am usually just as productive. I like to go for walks and exercise when I am high. My friends or more specifically one friend in my group drags us down and just wants to sit there.

Re: Habitual marijuana use
We generally go through a quater a day between 3-4 people. I don't know if thats high or low. I don't really care. I just enjoy smoking and the high it provides, but when is it too much. For me I don't think being high all the time is necessary or appropriate. I like to smoke after work and hang out with my friends. I also enjoy use during chores and some days at work to make it better.

Dude, it's fucking bud, the point at which you are actually paranoid about smoking too much IS WHEN IT IS too much.

Re: Habitual marijuana use
I am not paranoid about it. I was talking about it with my brother because he doesn't want it to "take over my life". This was ment to be a light discussion about when people like to be sober and draw a PERSONAL line when to stop.

Re: Habitual marijuana use
Tell your brother to fuck off.
Get high when you want, and don't when you don't. You get your bills paid and shit, you're not on the streets suckin' dick for the next hit, and most of all it's just weed man.

actually some people can get by just fine stoned
I havent gained any weight in ten years
my sleep improves when i go to bed with a buzz
makes my dreams insanely vivid
by the way i only smoke on days off or when my insomnia kicks in bad
and i do believe you should not go to work under the influence of anything
and especially driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol is a big no no
personally i dont have any isseus with memory loss
bills get paid
keep a long term job i have had for years

Re: Habitual marijuana use
I am on a break currently (something i do every 6 months or so) Because i begin to notice that smoking weed every day REALLY affects your behaviour, just subtly, but enough to have an impact on your life... But it really does. I didnt even notice this in 3 years of smoking until last year when i had to quit due to circumstances beyond my control... In that time i became more popular, i was funnier, i didnt seem like a fucking rem because i wasnt laughing at stupid shit that noone else understood, and so on. Maybe im an isolated case but i doubt it when i look at some of the other heavy smokers i know.

Re: Habitual marijuana use
OP you just aren't at the habitual rate/time of smoking that causes bad affects.
on erowid i read an article where if you like smoke only 3 bowls a week it will positively effect ur IQ. But anymore than that and it has a slight negative effect.
I think this was a cop out to tell urself that ur not a pot head. how old are you 16?

Re: Habitual marijuana use
The more you smoke and handle yourself in public, the better at it you get. Practice makes perfect. It's also nice to stop smoking for a few days to let your tolerance go back down. Then you treat yourself to a fat bowl and it is so choice.

Re: Habitual marijuana use
After smoking for a long time as a sleep aid, if you stop smoking you have great difficulty in sleeping. You also don't enjoy eating food nearly as much when sober. I have noticed memory damage as well after long term smoking, but after quitting memory seems to come back in a few weeks' time. Basically, smoking more than every once in a while isn't the greatest idea.

Re: Habitual marijuana use
I usually smoke for about 1-2 weeks straight every time i get some good pot, and then I become fed up with it and sell my new bowl / rest of my weed to one of my friends. Repeat every 2+ months.
Usually, I just do a lot of pills though. Right now I'm trying to quit the pills so I've been smoking all week. I'm planning on giving it up when I go to college in under a month.
My philosophy is, it's just weed. It helps people become accustomed to a lifestyle of kind of sobriety. I can smoke weed all day, every day, and still not feel "full," like when I take opiates... Weed just affects the mind, not the body.
So no, don't worry about smoking weed all the time as long as it doesn't lead to other things.
