I miss weed so much. 6 months of self-imposed restrain from smoking weed and my life greatly worsened. I will do a full year without it at this point but I think I'll lose my job and destroy my body because i dont care about working anymore since i have no reward, and i work out and do HIITs 6 days a week just to be able to sleep

>>77225962
alcohol is 100x more addictive and also kills you. i wish i could smoke weed but it just makes me paranoid

Potheads like to point to outliers and subsequently anonymously declare themselves to be an outlier but observable reality is weed is for losers.

>>77226110
the alcoholics who "get shit done" are absolutely outliers as well. pop culture has instilled in your mind the image of the don draper alcoholic, a successful businessman who rinses with whiskey, starts his workday with a rum and coke, and drinks heavily at home and out. in reality, the vast majority of people who drink like this are hanging on by a thread at best, and unemployed/institutionalized/homeless at worst. their family lives range from nonexistent to fucked up. there's nothing enviable about it, and no, they do not get shit done

>>77226110
Good point. Alcoholics do get shit done. Get shitfaced, shit yourself.
Then drive into a shit tree

>>77225993
it gets better after a year bro
but you have to do shit in your life that makes you happy and relaxed
you have to replace weed with other good habits

also HIIT is pretty bad for your health so no wonder you dont care about working out anymore

you literally cant gain muscle with alcohol in ur system

>>77225993
I wish so badly I could be one of those people that could just smoke a joint at the end of the day and enjoy it but I always want more and more and if I have weed at home I'll smoke from the moment I wake up till I fall asleep. Work from home and actually do better at work high than sober so no external reason not to do it. Tried so many times to limit myself and I just can't. No other choice but to just not smoke anymore and I haven't in 6 months either.

weed has completely ruined alcohol for me
alcohol
>you either feel nothing or a bit tipsy and sober up pretty fast with noticeable physical discomfort or get shitfaced and feel like absolute shit on the next day
>you can do or say stupid shit you'll regret
>your brain goes through hundreds microstrokes every time you get drunk
>toxic for literally every tissue in your body
>might cause immediate gastric tissues like vomiting
>no way to draw fun from it and staying unscathed physically
weed
>just a tiny little bit can alter your perception for hours
>makes everything more interesting, food is better, jokes are funnier, sex is more intense
>interesting thought process can happen if you're introspective
>when the initial high comes down you're still pleasantly sedated and relaxed for hours
>no hangover, practically the opposite, you might feel chilled out even on the next day
>no physical issues at all, no discomfort, no toxicity, basically no negative feedback at all
at this point when i'm forced to go out i prefer having fun sober because i'm all too aware of how alcohol fucks everything up and makes any form of bonding feel hollow af
and when i'm chilling at home on weekend i will gladly vape a little bit of weed and relax like a king

Weed is a motivation goblin, never again bros, I was addicted for a couple of years now that I quit I can finally maintain a job and start taking care of myself

I REMEMBER one faggot on here who told me am an archetype of people who always yaps about how's he changed and can't maintain a job for 2 months, I'm on my 3rd MONTH over performing, so nigga what's up

>>77226615
Thanks to weed I was able to find a job and I'm in in since 6 years. Now that I quit I am closer and closer to lose it because I just don't care anymore because I can't come back home and smoke

Modern weed yes. Shit’s way too strong.

Eh, maybe. Personally, my kryptonite was heroin, lol. I found my soul mate in it, but fuck if it won't ruin your life and almost kill you. Ultimately had to give it up.

But you're right. Weed seems... more corrosive, almost. A long-term type. Dulls you almost without you realizing. I see it in my brother, so much wasted potential.

>>77225962
I have a long term love hate relationship with it.
I love being stoned, how with some things, like painting/sketching/music or just chilling on the beach reading it takes the edge off and can be perfect. But often times it gives me analysis paralysis and I will overthink things that don't need or deserve it. It can also make me extremely unambitious and sometimes I'm actually more creative and willing to step outside my comfort zone without it. I'm a hell of a lot more social and outgoing when it's out of my system.
In social settings it makes me go deathly silent.
Almost all of my friends smoke it, and I love having a little puff with them when we go out. But it's always a regret.
I used to smoke all day everyday and it fucked me up massively. Definitely stunted my development as a person. And since cutting down drastically my self development has tripled in a short amount of time.
These days I will occasionally smoke right at the end of the day, if I'm smoking. Or on the weekend when alone.

Weed is safer though, it doesn't make the user develop physical dependence on it like alcohol does. I don't recall hearing about anyone overdosing on weed but that happens with alcohol a lot.
I'm no purist, I like both. But alcohol is objectively more dangerous.

>>77227212
Yeah I think this influx of legality has opened the doors for such strong weed and weed products now. I'm happy that it isn't illegal but the average moron is now able to smoke 90%+ THC concentrates via wax or shatter. The shit is so strong it's triggering schizophrenia and other mental conditions in people. I agree that a lot of people can't handle that and shouldn't do it.

Weed is spiritually brown while alcohol is spiritually white

It's worse for your brain and lifestyle, for sure. A daily joint vs a daily beer will have a horrible effect on your brain and motivation.

Larger amounts of alcohol will tear your body ad brain apart, for sure. But a small amount of pot every day will fuck your brain up fast.

You must be retarded if you think so, I don't smoke but alcohol literally destroys your liver and if you are an alcoholic and decide to stop you might die, a friend of mine's father was a big drinker for 20 years and after he stopped had a seizure and died.

From experience. Quitting that stupid shit the best thing I did.
Weed make you a lazy no matter how you consume it. Fuck that stupid copium shit. Once you hooked on it, it corrupt you brain to the point you stop care about anything even yourself, and most people I know stillsmoking it are total losers .
Alcohol, in moderation, is a million time better, make you relaxed, a lightened mood and have fun with friends and women. Most importantly it doesn't fuck up your brain like THC.

Its nice in moderation like if you're staying home on a Friday or Saturday night on want to spark up and listen to music.

If you smoke everyday or do it to feel good constantly than you become a loser.

im trying to tell you that you need to change your lifestyle and fill the void that quitting weed left behind otherwise you will go back to smoking because it's how you've learned to cope with boredom and discomfort.

its gonna take a solid year before your brain starts feeling normal again.

I'm sayin this cause i went through the same thing lil nigga, and now im 4 years sober.

>>77225962
I think it depends on your personality ultimately. I used to smoke almost daily when I was in college, but have mostly stopped it without any issue or cravings. It never made me lazy or interfered with studies or work.
Nowadays, I'd split a joint with the wife once every 3-4 months and it's fun but I've no need to go on binges or smoke more frequently.
I do know people who turned into the stereotypical couch-bound stoners tho, so it can be as bas as y'all say.

Both are terrible for you but weed you can still function. Alcohol will destroy your life if your personality can't take it, I k ow a functional alcoholic and charlie sheen are the only functional drug takers, everyone else drinking and drugs are functionally a cripple.

>>77229324
On the other hand, alcohol is much harder to stop in my experience. Alcoholism runs in the family, but there's also societal pressure to drink on every occasion possible. Most of my father's friends are dead (early 60s) as a result of a lifetime of drinking, and I actively try to avoid the same fate while it is time.
The problem with >>77228823
is that it almost never is "in moderation", as in a small amount every once in a while. For most people, it is either a small amount every single day (couple of beers after work, or similar), or copious amounts every other weekend. Both will fuck you up in the long run.

>>77225962
Are you an alcoholic? Alcohol is literally toxic and weed isn't you retard

>>77228330
Top kek
Well, did anything bad happen? Do you still do it?

>>77229458
The amount of weed you'd have to smoke to have it be toxic is so much that you'd pass out before you could ingest it all.

They are both shit but large amounts of alcohol is way worse for your health. And it was way harder to quit booze.

I buy my weed in 1 pound increments now and can say, the more youre allowed to smoke the less you choose to. I smoke maybe 3-4 joints a day as opposed to when id have to restrict myself which made me want it more. I think its more of a if you dont let yourself have it, you'll just want it more.

>You won't be able to fall asleep well the first few nights. I recommend just staying up and doing something until you're nodding off in your seat.
>You may feel like you're getting hot or cold flashes. Palm sweats too.
>You will have anxiety attacks or at least spikes of anxiety. They will not last much more than 20 min
>Depending on the frequency of your use, you may experience a depression or at least a general lack of engagement or interest in things.

I had some form of these after a month straight of vaping and smoking every day. I would say the sleep issues went away in about 4 days. Temperature control 1-2 days. Anxiety maybe a week or two but it was highly sporadic. General lack of engagement lasted perhaps a week or two.

Excessive THC consumption is essentially dumping massive amounts of dopamine into your brain. It's essentially giving your brain the most intense feeling of reward possible, which is why people tend to find it demotivates them. The extended low after stopping is your brain waiting for a dopamine dump, but your daily activities are not enough to meet the reward threshold, so your brain seeks other forms of engagement. You may be tempted to hit the dopamine button in any way possible, like sweets, junk food, or masturbating. It's okay to maybe lean on these slightly as you recover but don't overdo them. It's important your brain not be exposed to high dopamine levels long enough to restore its sensitivity to more normal rewards, like the good feeling from doing the dishes or completong work. This is why I recommend never going beyond a week straight. Ideally once a week or less. Even more ideally, after a very intense period of work or physical exertion to at least reap some benefit of spamming your reward centers. Be careful of what you do before or while getting high, you are essentially 10x the reinforcement loop while doing so.

>>77225962
In highschool I had sex with like 7 girls in my class over the years by just inviting them over to smoke and then they'd want to bang. The only good thing about weed is it makes sex better so they'd actually want to come back even if I was a retard back then. I'd say it's cooler than alcohol.

CBD is neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory and can improve sleep quality.
Smoking is bad for you, and THC is bad for you, but what's the genuine argument against CBD gummies/oil?

I don't understand people's hate boner for weed. If you can't be productive on weed then it's your fault. I love to hike, garden, read and draw while high (though some people will argue about whether these activities are "productive").

Everyone who gets high and stares a tv, computer or phone screen, or chooses to spend their time whilst high in a non-edifying way has no one to blame but themself for being a piece of shit.

If you're thinking bad thoughts on weed, that's also on you for being a psychic dyel.

I'll drop the greenpill now so this is finally settled. People who hate weed have never had access to it or are scared to try it. They're bitter other people get to have fun so they overcompensate by hating it.
People who are indifferent don't matter at all.
People who enjoy weed usually follow two patterns: those that are responsible and those that aren't. Irresponsible users will sacrifice other important or vital parts of their live for drugs. This isn't unique to weed and can even apply to food, entertainment, gambling, hobbies.
Those that are responsible will augment their life with weed. They pay their bills, have a life, go to work sober, etc. It's not a destructive substance, it's people with destruction behavior misusing something.
