I Quit Smoking

And it kind of ruined it for me. I had quit for 3 years for a career, which ironically ended when i smoked ONE TIME and a series of unfortunate unrelated events prompted a drug test. Started smoking again hard for like 6 months about then stopped for ANOTHER career which doesnt really test but could under certain curcumstances and im still gunshy from the first time. Anyway.

Ive kind of turned into a lame ass since i quit. I dont have any friends and im not interested in making any. Im uptight. Kind of hate everyone and everything. Outside of the times i quit for work, ive always been a pothead. But nowadays, there are occasional chances for me to smoke again, and on the very rare occasions i do, it just doesnt feel the way i remember. It makes me kind of uncomfortable, slightly paranoid like everyones looking at me and cross examining me. I dont feel like i belong in my own skin, and my gait is off. Its completely turned me off to smoking, which makes me sad. Now i just feel like im stuck between two worlds, and like i lost something special.

When i was in elementary school, i was really good at drawing. I would doodle all day all over my schoolwork, mostly pokemon and DBZ, but also original monsters and goofy faces or whatever. One of my teachers was really pissed over it and one day she came to my desk and called me out in front of the whole class, and told me if I doodled one more time, she would fail me. Thus scared and embarrased me, and i stopped, but it wasnt easy. I wanted to doodle so bad, but remembered what she said and had to force myself to stop. This made me lose all interest in drawing, and i eventually completely lost my ability. To this day, my art sucks, and i cant even think of anything to draw, much less put it on paper. If i do force myself its stressful and always sucks to me. Sometimes i cam draw ok for my kids, when im goofing around with them, but its still uncomfortable for me.

Smoking for me nowadays feels just like drawing. Has this ever happened to anyone? Did you ever get smoking to feel "right" again?

I quit a couple times but never lasted very long it was a little weird at first when I started again but I don't give a fuck who knows I'm high. Lol, I also just love most drugs so yeah.

But my wife on the other hand has about the same issue as you I keep telling her "you just need to build a tolerance!" But she won't smoke enough to build a tolerance and she doesn't like many drugs even coke she will do a little but nothing like me.

Im kind of a split between you two. Much like you, ive tried just about everything and loved most of it. MJ has always been my baby tho, but i cant snap out of the aversion i have to it now :/ i kind of felt like it might be a tolerance issue, but the mental block keeps me from building it back up. Im just genuinely not interested in smoking anymore, which is not the same guy you would of seen like 4 and on years ago.

This thread makes me sad. So many artists are stifled in that same way by uncreative adults who have lost their imagination.

for the weed, i would take the TINIEST hits you physically can from a small pipe. You can rebuild your tolerance slowly without freaking out.

Get high. Start drawing again. Uncle Bob's orders.

That's funny, I would doodle all around my assignments all day in school. The teacher told me to stop too, but I turned around and told her to suck my dick! Then I handed her my doodled out to the game paper.

In middle school I made a clay gargoyle head and won some awards for it too. My grandma wouldn't let me bring it in the house! She said it was the devil! All I could think is "grandma, it's NOT foosball" I ended up donating my sculpture to the school and never saw it again. :(

I remember when i was in elementary i took a bunch of modeling clay and made a giant dick and balls and left it in my art teachers desk.

She made sure we got no more clay after lol
