Your history with weed

I alsi liked gerinski's intervention... I'm glad I did indulge in weed, but yeah, like him, I sometimes wonder what I'd do if hadn't... wopuld i be in a better mental, physical or intellectual shape??

What did he tell you? in my experience weed is one of the softest drugs out there, even softer than the legal normal cigarettes.

I write papers stoned all the time but I avoid being too high when studying for tests. I think it's possible to handle a weed habit during school if you have enough of a tolerance and react well to weed in general. 

Not anymore. It's enjoyable, but it's not a group activity and it hinders research unlike something like alcohol which enhances it in an acceptable range.

Yeah that was pretty much it, spot on.


Has been years, cliche I know but feel too old now
Could agree, deff not a group thing and while it was enjoyable was never that great.

Indeed, I'm also curious.
Well ciggs had zero effect at all, but when you're piss drunk it's certainly a lot more debilitating than weed.
And never done anything else but shrooms, acid, ecstasy and all seem much harder. Could've been just his personal tolerance and all

I used to be a modest user of weed and I consider it a softer drug than alcohol.  Real problem is the legality of it and random drug tests at work.  

It would just be funny if society started treating alcohol like other drugs suddenly and the people who drink all the time would have to start realizing they have a drug habit whether they want to call it that or not. It bugs me how many people i met who try to tell me they don't see alcohol as a 'real drug', so silly.

The fact that you smoked it in Holland might explain why you fell asmeep.... the local weeds back then, called Skunk were fairly strong, but very smooth... I felt quite sleepy doing those weeds as well... When i moved in the NL, I was a tad worried my weed consumption would dramatically increase, but most of the local weeds still put me to sleep... and the odd one give me cold sweats... Sooo I kind of quit... I only smoke what the buddies grow and sell to me... though I only smoked twice tor thrice his past year
