Stoned too often?
[Post#: 79880

Hello.
Have any of you guys ever become kind of anti-social from smoking Cannabis for too long? I think something like that has happened to me.
I think I have been unstoned for one or two days in three years.
I have always been kind of a loner and not terribly good at social gameplaying, but it has gotten to the point that I almost never leave the house, and never take the car for a drive.
Does anyone think that a disinclination to go out and meet new people could somehow be caused by too great Cannabis-consumption?
Thanks.

Firstly rarely behaviour in and of itself is completely analyzable. If
you are content with your situation then it is probably alright. If
you are not content and don't know how to get out of it then you should
probably seek some sort of help.
It is healthy to not want to engage in social gameplaying. There are
others in the world looking for someone like you.
When they legalize we still will produce better medicine. This is medical advise.

i am in the same situation. Its cool to hear im not the only one. Since i started smoking i didnt want to hang out with anyone who didnt smoke. Cause then suddenly its like they are parents instead of freinds. Eventually i didnt really think i needed to go hang out with them. I mean i got my pot and tv and computer all at home :) . Kinda funny though because im 17 but when i was 12 i was a hellraiser and was totally against pot because my mom was in jail for drugs (i was against drugs in general). Well i was prett bad and got suspened from school on a regular basis. Then i started smoking pot. I did a complete flip flop. Grades = improved attitude = improved, I feel that pot helped me in the long run. It made me realize there are other ways to have fun instead of being bad and immature. I know right if i ditched pot and went back tp hanging out with my freinds. I go back to where i was and i would probably drop out of the little bit of school im in. I feel that making the decision to keep smoking will help me in the long run. Some may say well man you are missing out on your teenage years. Go out and party. But im not saying this is with all people but its seems as though the partyers tend to turn out bad when you see them 30 years later. Know what i mean. By all means i dont mean all people who party when they are teens becuase i recently found pictures of my highly successful father (co-owns a multimillion dollar buisiness) with phrases like Coke...the real thing. IM sure you can geuss whats in the picture. Anyway i pretty much forgot what i was talking about. Oh ya im gonna keep smoking pot cause in the longrun it will help me you should too. PEACE - im an idiot

Find people that you are comfortable with, wether they smoke or not and do stuff with them. i think you may be paranoid,i get it occasionally and it makes me hole up in my house.Scared of parents or girlfriend or cops ,whatever ,sometimes even a strain of weed might make my want to get up and move(mostly sativas i'd guess) and get out.

Odorless et al.:
Thanks for the letters. You all sound like very nice people.
I just don't know how to begin a relationship anymore. The understanding required to participate in another persons life seems locked away in some golden age in a past of indeterminate distance, as a prenatal memory, impenetrably shrouded in mysteries and layer upon layer of memories and experiences.
I feel so "unreal" when I get in the company of other people, as if I constantly have to hide things about myself.

I still like the Doors!

Forget pot, it may be the music you're listening to that's making you antisocial.
Actually, you're probably just out of practice. You must still have somebody you know. Just go out more often, alone or with someone you're kinda comfortable with. It takes some getting used to, and will likely continue to feel completely unreal, but hey, some people pay good money to make the world unreal-seeming, right? If you are unhappy with your lack of social life, rememeber that you are in control of what you do. It just takes a little will-power sometimes.
People may be strange as all hell, but you're people too.

Hmmm, that's weird.
I smoke bud very often, and I find that when I smoke I tend to talk a lot.
Like I trip out on ideas and stuff.
Mind you I am a very social when I am not stoned...so maybe that's the reason?
Who knows...

I am afraid I don't. I think normal people meet new people at school or at work. I don't know how other people make new acquaintances.

Yes, I think that's true.
But I don't think I could be genuine with other people when I basically feel everything, including how I am behaving towards them them, is a put-on. It will shine through that I am hiding myself and not being direct with them.

I also have the urge to talk a lot when I am smoking. I have just gotten a bit tired of only there only being myself to talk to.

Yes, I guess it's difficult to know.
