Does Getting High On Your Own = Getting Drunk By Yourself?

Discussion in 'Seasoned Marijuana Users' started by Black_Chamber, Jun 14, 2009.

  1. Regularly getting drunk by yourself may indicate depression/alcoholism in a person, but does regularly getting high by yourself similar? would it indicate depression/social anxiety or what?

    I find I get a lot higher on my own than when I am with a group of people. it's more of a meditative experience , i guess. with people you always gotta be doing something or else you'll get bored.

    what do you think?
     
  2. I have to disagree with this. Alcoholism, or any addiction for that matter, is only an addiction and a problem when negative consquences occur because of said actions. So what if a person drinks every night, as long as they are happy and it isn't causing negative consquences on their life so what lol.

    Just my opinion. :smoke:
     
  3. I think they aren't related at all. Alcoholism is fucked up and fucks peoples lives up if they are too addicted and need it to get through their day. You can mentally become addicted to the desire to be high when it comes to weed (just as you can become addicted to porn, cereal or literally anything) but I know it's not on the same level as drinking by ones self, they are in need of the alcohol if its at that point where they drink alone.

    With that out of the way, I enjoy smoking in a social environment because I like to make friends and hang out with people by being high or getting high, it's more fun to look back and see who you met and what you did. Smoking alone is also good but your experience might not be as great if there isn't much around to do like there is at a social event in my opinion.
     
  4. I believe getting high with one other person, a small group of people, and alone all have their benefits. I personally prefer to smoke with others, usually just one or two other people, but that doesn't mean I won't burn a joint by myself by any means.
     
  5. Yeah, but realistically, drinking every night by yoursef will almost guarantee you depression or negative consequences somewhere up the road...
     
  6. Not at all.
    Getting drunk by yourself is sad, because often you are reduced to an emotional slob.
    Getting high by yourself is fine, because often you make a sandwich and surf Grass City.
    :p
     
  7. drinking alone = sad and almost physically abusive compared to the awesome nature of being stoned... alone :confused: right?
     
  8. 9 times out of 10 when i smoke I play basketball after.... its amazing

    so yeah i smoke by myself
     
  9. I do both by myself, and I do both with small/large groups of other people.

    Who cares..

    you, my friend, obviously have no clue what youre talking about (no offense)

    some people are fucking addicted to weed, and do need weed to get through the day

    i was really close to that point, smoking an OG blunt all to myself, getting buzzed for 20 minutes, and then having to spark up another blunt.

    it was a vicious cycle, and i honestly had no control over it whatsoever.

    keep in mind, im only 18....i started at 13, and have been smoking everyday since 15.

    the first t-break i tried taking, ended miserably.....i did not get a second of sleep for 4 nights, i ate a meal a day, forcefully, and every second of every day, i was thinking of weed.

    after a few successful weeklong t-breaks though, these symtoms started slowly disappearing, and i was able to sustain for 53 days.....ive got about 18 days to go, and my body will be completely clean of THC(2 1/2 months total, doctors estimate)

    i will honestly never again smoke the amount i used to smoke....

    my point is that just because you dont show physical addiction to smoking weed, doesnt mean you should assume others dont either.

    sorry for the long post, but the previous post put so many thoughts into my head.

    i would usually smoke with others, but towards the end of my escapades, i realized smoking by myself got me more high, and i wouldnt have to deal with other peoples bullshit
     
  11. i also do both all the time and rly dont worry about it. although for me when i smoke alone i have ta smoke more ta feel the same high i get with a group. I think with a group it is easier to realize if ur trippin er jus hav a crazy placebo kinda thing added to ur high some times my mind just tells me im not high then i smoke more till i knw im high

    str1ctly kUsh i just read ur post dude i gotta giv u props iv been tha bad a few times with alc and MJ but still neva went more than a month with out one er the other. ANd i gotta say both can end up being very addicting, but one is useful for ending the addiction of the other but thas kinda bad advice cuz tha can be a recipe for another addiction but ya im kinda high so sorry if this dont mak sense
     
  13. I actually like to smoke by myself more often now, but I smoke with my homies atleast 2-3 times a week.
     
  14. Having a few beers after a long days work is fine. but if you're getting wasted to the point of passing out every might have a problem
     
  15. My feelings about getting high alone vs getting high with others are the same as just being alone vs being with others; it's always nice to socialize, though you need time for yourself too..
     
  16. Whaaaat hahaha, I used to go to HS practices high and suck, I react a lot slower and can't get my shot off right sometimes.

    I workout and get stuff that needs to be done, then I blaze. It's so much less stressful and soothing.
     
  17. There's really nothing quite like lightin' up a fat bowl or such by yourself, and just chilling.

    I find I enjoy sprinting around town alot more when I'm buzzin'.
     

  18. ... Why don't you just go back to your home on whore island?
     
  19. I do alot of both...
     
  20. I totally love gettin' high by myself. As long as theres music playin' or the tv's on I have a damn good time.
    Though if I go out, getting high with other people is more fun. But since I usually try to conceal the fact that I smoke, I just smoke on my own.
