How does marijuana make us understand human emotion easier?

  1. I keep seeing many threads on how a person can usually become much more analytical of a person and analyze feleings much more efficnently while under the influence of marijuana. However, what actually causes this? Because without science, one could assume we are all just ASSUMING we can read people better, but that could just be the drug telling our brains that. Thoughts?
     

     
  2. I think that's just how we feel but I misread people all the time
     
  3.  
    Science, in terms of chemical reactions interacting with impressions in the brain, as a means for explaining action isn't the same thing as the philosophical question of "where do thoughts come from." 
     
    Weed does provide different windows in which to view the world - the chemical effect can cause euphoria or what have you, but it's the sense we make from these changes in the brain that aren't (at present) understandable by measurable science.  Why is it when we feel euphoric our emotional reactions to people or objects we deal with on a daily basis is different?  We see things with new meaning and purpose than how we always view or use them. 
     
    This feeling could be deduced into many reasons but ultimately it doesn't matter what caused it, but rather what we intend to do with the new perception.  Having new perspectives is the only way we advance, individually and culturally.  One thing you learn too, is emotional perceptions while high are just as real as the logical ones we have while sober.

    So it has to do with the euphoria. That makes sense

    In addition to this, I think that with evolution humans have come up with different ways to communicate. We have learned and created new skills, such as writing, with the original Ancient Egyptian scribes, and then with language, and now with technology (Mobile phones, internet based on our grounding in language and writing). With such evolution's, we have forgotten how to use the communication skills that we were born with, our animal instincts to be able to read other people, which has now sunken into our subconsciousness. The kind of instincts that animals keep, such as an Ants ability to work in a colony, or a Dogs ability to tell when a member of its pack is ill (or even when a domestic dogs owner is ill) without the use of any [humanly] noticeable communication. 
     
    I think that Marijuana somehow unlocks these instincts and allows us to communicate without using words, but instead by the vibrations that we release, and through our body language etc.  I think this is also the reason why we get such a strong connection with out stoner buddies.

  6. Perception is altered.
     
    You notice and ponder different things when under a different perception. 
     
    Get a haircut while baked and notice how people are even more inwardly directed while getting the attention.
     
  7. Dont know if this is the right thread.. but ive been contemplating suicide. Being high all the time makes me think about my life.. and all the bullshit in it.. and it makes me feel all down, wondering if my life already is fucked.. and im just lost, which is how i feel, lost. Ive stopped skating for a while due to all these people i thought were once my friends just started judging me. Talking behind my back.. and idk what to do. I just sit and cry for 15 minutes, and think about my life deep. Ive tried suicide my pills. Wanted to jump in front of a train one time by my house. And honestly.. nothing in this life can make me happy anymore. Probably iggy azalea. But in all seriousness, im depressed as fuck and im just thinking about fading off the face of the earth..

  9. It about certain receptors in the brain opening up and the way you integrate your feelings at that certain moment.. to either negative or positive emotions.
