Does anyone get high anymore???

[prebop]

Stoner here. Hate the "medical" excuse. Any idiot in california can go to a "doctor" and complain about insomnia and get a "prescription". Just admit you're stoners!

Couldn't have said it better Cut. Throat. Boomer here smoking since the 60's and am a poster child for a red card in Colorado. I do like the protection that a red card gives but I like to smoke dope. Sure it helps me go to sleep and keeps me on an even keel when I'm down but at the end of the day I LIKE THE FEELING OF BEING STONED. Like the commercial says "This is your brain normally and this is your brain on dope. Funny, I like the way I look.

You guys are who give mmj a bad name. I take it for my mania( I'm very bi-polar, to the point of hallucinations and psychosis). For those few hours, nothing exists. The voices and yelling go away. The next day I have the residual effects and can be happy.

My wife calls me a loser the next day and a weak person. That I'm a pathetic pot head.

After I take it as a medication, the next day I have relief. If I was doing it for fun, I'd do some killer indica and get totally fucked up. I wouldn't do a sativa. I certainly wouldn't eat magical cookies either. Eating goes in waves. You're only partly high. Then at the end, about 15 minutes of not knowing a damn thing, about four hours later.

Mmj works about the same as the anti-convulsants I used to be on. Without the dry mouth, numb face, pins and needles in my feet, nose bleeds and not able to drink soda. Plus I had this craving for citric acid.

Now I don't have to worry about thyroid damage, liver failure or kidney failure.

I wouldn't smoke or eat mmj if I didn't have this mental disorder. Being crazy isn't fun. I wish more than anything I could get cured. I'd never do it again. I've been an mmj patient since last August. For over 33 years I never touched marijuana.

Kinda harsh to say that we are giving mj a bad name when it was already given that title by the govt. back in the 30's... now you are a person that uses mj for medical purposes and I'm really happy that it helps you. you aren't the only one it helps, I saw a documentary and there was a guy that had MS that they were trying to interview this guy but couldn't until he had a few tokes of the pipe... MMJ is legit. what I was getting at was stoners saying I'm going to medicate when they are just getting high/stoned... but to say that ppl are giving it a bad name cause they do it recreationally is BS... I drink to get drunk does that mean I'm giving alcohal a bad name?? NO. ppl drink and beating thier wives/kids, drinking and driving and killing ppl are the ones giving it a bad name... Sylvan stay medicated the rest of you stay high

by the way I think it's BS that your old lady is calling you pathetic... she belongs back in the 30's with the others... no offense to her but she should see the affects it has on you and praise MMJ for what it is... stay high

I smoke about a 0.1 gram. About 2 or 3 puffs in my one hitter chillum. Afterwards, I feel euphoria and the voices go away. Usually there is some song too. I think I may be psychitzophrenic too.

My neighbors all get stoned. I just do it for the euphoric feeling. I'm happy. I can show empathy. I don't yell at my kids. I sometimes get high, but I don't tell my wife. I say nice things to her and she asks if I'm high. I can't help it. I say no, but giggle. She gets pissed. Her brother does it, but he gets anti-social. Whereas I want to talk to my wife high, but she gets pissed. Even if all I am is happy and totally functional. That's what I mean by give it a bad name. I wish there was a version of marijuana that did what it does to me, but nothing to you guys who do it for fun. I could then have mine, and you yours. The stigma would be gone. Since guys like even Romney could smoke mine and nothing would happen. Like what happens with mood elevators if you don't have a mood disorder. Then assholes like Romney couldn't call bullshit.

I use a very sativa leaning pheno of Blue Dream. I wish I had the space to grow a 100% sativa like Maui Waui, Panama Red, etc.

well bud although it makes your wife uncomfortable I say smoke on... I think it's great that you sometimes just get high to just get high, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Carl Sagen once said that it would be legal in his life time, I'm no Carl Sagen but I also believe that it will be legal in my lifetime not just for medical purposes but for recreational use. I hope that your wife can one day see MJ for what it is and not this horrible thing that the govt. has led us to believe for so long. We are closer than we ever have been. ,,and ... stay high

I am glad that mmj helps your bi-polar condition. I suffer the same affliction and when I am having a mania attack I stay away from cannabis because it makes me dwell on what I am mad about. I will NOT take pills because the side effects are worse than the affliction itself. The only thing that helps me is time so I take long walks alone and after a while I can live with the world again. For those of you that mmj medically helps I am happy for you I just like the feeling of a good buzz!!

the thing i dont like is ppl that claim marijuana isnt addictive. well guess what, it is addictive. pretty much all drugs that enter the body has addictive qualities to it, even paxil is addictive and i know because my friend will go crazy without it. "wanting" something and "needing" something is pretty much the same thing. substances (drugs) causes an imbalance of the bodys natural chemicals and the human body being a finetuned machine as it is will adjust to its environment (drugs being taken in). going without cannabis will cause a withdrawl as ur body is use to the comsumption of cannabis.

the key to getting high is moderation. i dont smoke as much as i use to anymore but i can tell u that my pothead friends that smoke all day everyday is a major turnoff if i ever seen one. literally chronic users.

 

[rowlman]

I've been getting high for a good 30 years now..... But I love to say" going to medicate" just to piss off the non-card holders.

 

[prebop]

Coffee is addictive, most everything is if you think about it. Religion, sex, fishing, anything. I would rather be addicted to cannabis than paxil, heroin of alcohol. I agree, moderation is the key. In the late 60's I used to go through a oz a week, stems and seeds included. I smoked all the time, even went into a job interview loaded, got the job. To this day don't know how the guy didn't smell me, I reeked of pot. Now a couple of tokes here and there is about all I do. (want)

So? Almost every recreational smoker I've known used it for medicinal purposes of some form, usually for anxiety and insomnia. It's perfectly legit, just not recognized outside of CA.

 

[ladybis2006]

that's the result of medicating. I am new to this site and I medicate to but I also get high. Who ever says that they medicate without getting high can dream on because I don't believe that they medicate just to medicate and not feel euphoria has got to have there head checked thank you.

I try my hardest to get high as shit everyday.. Doesn't always work that way unfortunately.

maybe if u waited a little bit after u wakeup and smoked a fatty then u should get a decent "buzz". smoking after that wont have much of an effect. i use to smoke with my friend and have a joint every hour and i can tell u after the 5 or 6th joint i was just burnout.

 

[WaxxyNuggets]

yeah I hear you, when in doubt, dip and dab outrageous.
