Weed or no weed?

I smoked everyday, my brother smokes, cousins, all of my friends…etc but I don’t like the way my mood was.. I would go off on anybody for no reason if I didn’t have it. so I just stopped… I will every now and then just to chill, but not very often… and all the good stuff gets expensive sometimes…

I dont think its worth smoking,if you’ve tried to stay sober as you said (3months) I think you should stay sober:) its good for you’re health.

My point was, you CAN NOT generalize people who smoke marijuana. They are NOT all the same. You can mantain relationships with people who do not smoke. Just because your friends didn’t doesn’t mean that people can’t.

I didn’t say that no one smokes because the have problems, I said that’s not the only reason why people smoke. That would be like saying that people who have a drink everynow and then are alcoholics and drink because they have problems. You are generalizing people who drink alcohol, and you can’t do that.

You can’t argue with the addicts point, I’m sorry. If you have an addictive personality, you can get addictive to anything, anything what so ever. If you dont, you can very easily do something and quit.

I wouldn’t- just because it’s illegal and can make you ill, and if you get it from someone that you don’t know or trust very well, in the end you could just be smoking anything because your not going to know what they are putting in it, and at the end of the day, it’s up to you-

Wether you deteste your life so much that you want to risk ruining it

Or leave it as it is and let your life improve.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it except for its illegal. If it weren’t illegal, I’d smoke it. I used to, but I wouldn’t risk everything I have to get in trouble again. Thankfully places like California and Denver are finally realizing weed isn’t the worst thing in the world. I know plenty of people who have smoked it for a long time and are perfectly healthy. The only people who say it kills are just too stupid to get a bullsh*t detector.

In my opinion - there is nothing wrong with marijuana. It’s one of the safest drugs there is. Alcohol and Caffiene are both drugs, and they do more harm than marijuana. You can’t overdose. You dont get on crazy anger rages from it. There is no come down to suffer from. It doesn’t impair your judgement enough to harm anything or to where you can’t function. The only argument people have for marijuana is when smoking it. It can be injested several other ways that are way healthier for you also. It should have been legalized a long time ago, but since out government would have a hard time taxing it, that wont happen.

If you want to do it - go for it.

I like these responses especially from you mandaloo I am fifteen and smoke pot but I’m not addicted I only do it for fun or for relaxing and even if I can’t sleep. It’s not addictive unless you want it to be. It’s safer then alcohol and tobacco I have no idea why it’s illegal but it is. So if you want to smoke go for it if you don’t don’t then you should ask yourself not people on a blog anyways.

I am haunted with panic attacks because of weed. So no, don’t do it. I hate it.

Actually Mandyloo you can think of it many ways. But actually I have a few friends at school that smoke weed and I don’t. Yes we may talk but very rare do we chill because they normally just want to get high with their friends that smoke and do things together while they are high so they can have more fun.

So maybe you just didn’t understand exactly Mandy. :)

Also some people do smoke because they have problems and addicts which she is referring to they do normally smoke because of being stressed out which is a problem and they cant have fun in life or be happy without getting high.

there are many ways to make pot look good but even though it may not be horrible for you health wise it does change a person.

Are you all 12 years old?

Yeah its illegal, but if they banned hannah montana wouldn’t you still listen to it anyway?

There is not one compound in marijuana that will physically or mentally addict that marijuana. Yeah you get urges to smoke weed, but I also get urges to eat big macs so should we throw mcdonald users in jail?

The reason why its expensive is because IT IS ILLEGAL. People who are pro-decriminalization call for marijuana to be regulated like tobacco and alcohol, (you know, like having to have a state certified ID to get it in stores). Do you think drug dealers care about inflation or controlling the price? No, they charge what they want to make profit. Do you think drug dealers will ID a kid who is 15? No, but a store clerk would.

Marijuana also has caused 0 deaths in its existence, which is about 6,000 years or so.

Try and get educated for once.

first of all - mandyloo - you seem awesome. love your responses to all those who have probably never been high in their lives. that’s the problem, people thinks because it is illegal, it is ‘oh so bad.’ When alcohol is much, much worse. Pot makes me calm and happy. Wouldn’t want to hurt a soul.(I will never understand the government’s logic of alcohol being legal, while pot being illegal. Makes NO sense.) I smoke pot just about everyday, and it’s not addictive like heroin/coke/meth, etc. etc. but when I don’t have any.. I do think about it a lot. Most of that has to do where I am in my life.. livin’ in a boring town with practically nothing to do.

To the girl who asked the question - If you want to get high.. go for it. Since you haven’t smoked for 3 months, it’s not like you will even have to smoke much to get baked. Probably like 1-2 hits. lol. If you’re worried about getting into the routine of smoking everyday then just limit yourself, smoke occasionally. Atleast you won’t built a tolerance that way.

Love to all :)

amblessed Coming from a person who has been to addiction classes for years (for other things). Addiction takes an addictive personality. Not everyone becomes addicted when they use marijuana. Just as not everyone because an alocholic for simply having a drink every now and then. It takes an addictive personality to take it that far. If they have that personality they can be addicted to ANYTHING.

“Avoiding their friends who do not use, the addict will gravitate to others that do. Marijuana is a topic that is always on their mind, whether it be thinking about the next time they will be able to get high or where their going to get their next sack.”

This is how I can tell you have no idea what you are talking about. I can tell you have never experienced the effects of marijuana. You do not stop talking to friends who do not smoke, that’s ridiculous. It’s also not all you think about, unless you have that addictive personality as I stated before.

“Their constant abuse is due to the misconception that marijuana is what they need to solve their problems.”

Most people DO NOT smoke because they have problems. They use it as something that is fun. Same thing as having a drink every now and then.

I suggest you don’t give adive on something that you have never experienced and that you know nothing about. The government sure did a GREAT job brainwashing you.

Marijuana can be both emotionally and mentally addictive. Once an individual becomes addicted to marijuana it develops into part of who they believe themselves to be. Avoiding their friends who do not use, the addict will gravitate to others that do. Marijuana is a topic that is always on their mind, whether it be thinking about the next time they will be able to get high or where their going to get their next sack. When someone is addicted to marijuana eventually their friends and the people close to them only know how they act when their stoned because they no longer do anything without first smoking. Their constant abuse is due to the misconception that marijuana is what they need to solve their problems. Sometimes addicts will take their stash with them wherever they go, just in case an opportunity arises and they are able to take a couple hits. They may even go through several dealers in order to make sure they always have a constant supply of marijuana - For assistance Call 1-800-405-8409: http://WWW.marijuanaaddiction.info/ Weed Facts:http://ncadi.samhsa.gov/_usercontrols/printpage.aspx?FromPage=http%3A//ncadi.samhsa.gov/govpubs/phd641/
