    I feel like sometimes when I smoke I feel slow and kind of dumb honestly, I don't know if maybe I'm too high? Or maybe it's really making me stupid. I've been smoking for about 6 years now and I've always had this feeling, I just thought this is what being high is supposed to be like. So I just thought I'd get some opinions from you guys. Thanks!

    And I only feel like this when I'm high

    prolonged use does destroy your memory and concentration man - some people notice it more than others. Me, I do notice but only when i really put it to the test. This evening is the first time ive got high in about 2 weeks and in that time ive really noticed my memory come back - I play memory games quite a bit when at my parents house and the difference between a week ago and today was incredible. After just tonight my score will take a hit but will be small compared to if ive been smoking solidly for pretty much a year.

    Man, as soon as i build up a tolerance thats how I start to feel. Like I had a pretty good memory before and it definitely goes to shit when i start toking. Just take a few weeks off itll come back. I feel like the effects go up and down with my tolerance.

    Haha I was thinking the same shit, like I'll tell myself I have to do something then I'll just forget it like 2 minutes later ( only when I'm high )

    My memory is shit but I don't feel any more stupid than I did when I started toking. Just sounds like you need a t-break to clear your mind for a bit.

    When I build up a tolerance I feel slow but not dumb when sober. And my head just feels in an overall haze. Maybe time for a break.

    it definitely has a word or two with your mind and body, but that doesn't mean you can't be productive when you're stoned. it just depends on the activity.

    i smoke to purposely veg and be a degenerate....but i also smoke to watch documentaries and it helps me get into it and focus and comprehend it better with an open mind....

    so what i'm trying to say is, the mind is a powerful thing, you can tell your body (or mind) to do (or think) anything. so if u don't like being lazy tell your brain to get off yo ass and do som'fing =B

    next time u catch yourself being or feeling "slow" ....jus shake yourself out of it and get on your feet. :wave:

    See I can't do that, sometimes if I'm really into a movie or something I can focus on it and understand everything but most of the time I can't really concentrate.. Maybe it's just a mental thing (no pun intended) like last night i was enjoying the olympics with my bro and we were just smoking a bowl, about 10 15 minutes later I realized I wasn't even watching tv... I was sitting there thinking about how they made the colors of my tile lmao.

    Yeah man I call that controlling your high, it makes anything possible really, when I'm high I can make any sport feel like second nature when sober I'd probably fucking suck at it
