Why do I feel this way about marijuana?

Discussion in 'Beginner Cannabis Consumption & Tips' started by DreamsFlyHigh, Sep 5, 2012.

  1. I've been on an off on smoking, but I don't know why. I used to be very against it, until I tried it about a year ago and realized I like it. I get A's in school, with now occasional B's, and my personality isn't really different and I don't see any negative side effects so far, yet I still feel worried about smoking. Maybe it's all the negative things I've seen/heard about it, but I don't know. I always feel like I'm poisoning myself (not physically) and the people around me when we smoke together or something. I always have to sit there and contemplate whether or not I want to light up my next joint.

    Can anyone clear my thoughts on this?
     
  2. Nothing bad will happen bro. If you feel something that is negative when you smoke just stop and take a break until the problem stops. Everything will be okay just dont let weed run your life
     
  3. I'm sure a lot of people can relate to you, including me. Everyone says as a kid that they're never going to do drugs and blah blah blah because you are told that's all bad for you until you actually try it one day and find out that they overexaggerated and now you're so used to your thought process telling you it's bad that you get anxious but don't worry that will all go away. It did for me atleast even though looking back on it sometimes i always wonder how i got into it
     
  4. You were told your entire life not to open your mind and question things, this brings paranoia, your subconscious blames that on the herb.
     
  5. Propaganda
     
  6. The brainwashing works... Read through the studies in Granny's MMJ Reference List and your nerves will be calmed by the truth.
     
  7. Herb is compleatly natural bra! Just revaluate why ure smoking in the first place" i mean shit you could be doing other real hard drugs or drinking but why weed?

    Arsenic is also natural, be weary of the naturalistic fallacy.
     
  9. I used to feel the same way. But its just because of what information I decided to listen to....
     
  10. What does arsnic have to do with mj ure in ttha wrong thread my friend.:confused:

    Arsenic has nothing to do with cannabis, it has has to do with the naturalistic fallacy. I'm in the correct thread. :rolleyes:
     

  12. You're on a different level from he.... it's pointless.
     

  13. Theres nothing to worry about; humans have been evolving with cannabis for thousands of years and cannabis is practically made to be consumed by humans. Its only the propaganda we were taught as children leaving your body now. :)
     
  14. yeah i feel you. Ive researched the shit out of it, know that in moderation it wont have any major impact on my health at all yet sometimes (not all the time) i still feel guilty i guess you could say about smoking even though i know its not damaging. I end up smoking anyway because i reassure myself that its not unhealthy, but am i just reassuring myself or is it my horrible addiction? and are thoughts like that paranoia or ghastly weed effects. It doesnt bother me unless i really dwell upon/overthink it.

    I see what your saying, an as far as how you mean it there isnt a difference. But just because arsenic is dangerous doesnt mean it dont serve a purpose. Its jus not the same purpose MJ serves. Snake venom is made naturally an its dangerous but it still serves a purpose.
     

  16. The naturalistic fallacy has nothing to do with purpose, just the assumption that something is good, beneficial, healthy, etc just because it's natural. People are prone to it and it's common in advertising, but it's not a valid claim. Naturalistic fallacy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
     
  17. yeah im the same as you im always like should i shouldnt i... but i think its affected me a bit so thats prob why

    Im just like u man, but im also a smart guy, remember i came into smoking with no preconceived notions. Rumors are bad and thats how shit about weed started, im just that kid that feels for the kid having rumors spread about him, turns out shes a pretty cool motherfucker. I may not have as many friends as i did for hanging out with her but my life rocks.

    Ganja can affect people differently. I used to be suicidal and depressed after smoking bud i felt a new belonging to life and a higher purpose. Now i score higher in school and have never had a thought of killing myself. Just try to examine the benifits when your using it man. But what you think in your mind is what will happen your mind (specifally your thoughts) is a very powerful tool , just as ganja is a tool. just try not to make a big deal about your thoughts, and remember what u feel is what u know! xD

    good tokin broo.
     
  19. very contradictory name
     
  20. I'm an mmj patient and feel guilty all the time. I never really "smoked" until I became a patient.

    I smoke daily and sometimes I get those guilty highs. Yeah sure I could use a t-break and I probably "medicate" more than I should but I have other issues going on and the benign effects of cannabis are not like at the top of the list.

    To name a few...

    1. I'm mid-late 20's and have had a problem with alcohol since I was in high school. If I drank like I smoked, I'd either be dead, locked up or in rehab. Cannabis also helped me kick my cig habit, too.

    2. I have debilitating anxiety and panic. In college I could not even shop at the grocery store before I felt so anxious and uncomfortable I would just leave and live like a hermit. Some dumb head doc got me on a benzo and now I can't stop. Cannabis relieves my anxiety and helps me not up the benzo dose and feel withdrawal.

    3. Super duper depressed. I'm unemployed and haven't had a steady job since 2010. I tried the anti-depressants and they made me feel worse and I would self-medicate by mixing them with alcohol. Cannabis helps me realize I do have a purpose in this life and maybe I should stay awhile.
