| Post subject: | Question to fellow or ex- pot smokers |
Hey what's up guys? I've been smoking once a day....5 times a day...few times a week..for about 2 years now. I'm really not sure if my mind would change drastically after NOT smoking for a few months to make sure all the THC in my body is dissolved of. I blame some bad conversations, being burnt out, etc to the act of smoking....but yet i see other potheads blaze and seem intelligent. There's times where i'll actually be high and feel sharper than when i was sober beforehand. Do you guys think that eliminating my smoking will alter my game for the better? Better energy, wit, conversational skills, etc? Or is it all psychosomatic by "anchoring" pot to sometime negative associations? I'd like the opinions of those who have/do smoke so i can learn from personal experiences/opinions, not from those who have a prejudice against the drug via hearsay. Thank you for reading and your thoughts! |

I do not and have not smoked, but this seems like something that you would want to overcome whether or not it gave you an edge. Do you want to be stoned for the rest of your life? If not, you should probably learn to account for not having it in your body. |

Quitting will do you the world of good. The trick is to cut down, then when you are only smoking very little, quit. One of the main reasons people smoke it is due to boredom (and habit of course). So switch up your lifestyle abit, try new things, get into a new routine. Find yourself a subsitute for it. Some people think it helps them and they come up with better idea's when stoned, its seems genius to them, but their dellousional and its sheer madness in reality. It really doesn't make you feel better. |

I used to smoke 5 times a day. Volcano's, Blunts, Bongs. All in one day. I was stoned all the time. Eventually I stopped getting high and only got paranoid, and self concouss and depressed. So I finaly decided I need to quit once and for all. I pretty much stopped cold turkey and all of my friends were still smoking. I moved in with a new room mate who didnt smoke at all. This helped out because now I wasnt around smokers all the time. Anyway. I think it all depends on the person. My friend can smoke all day long and preform great in social settings. However I finally came to terms that I could not. Be honest with yourself. Do you think you could be better without smoking? Honestly herb is a drug.. and drugs can become a ball and chain. Its no different than drinking every day. or taking prozac every day or aderal or pain killers or cocain.. whatever.. drugs are drugs. I do not drink very much any more either. Usually when im out at bars lately i order a drink or take a few shots and then after that I just order a coke. I quit last september and I take ginko and fish oil supplements to help replenish my depleted braincells. My memory is terrible be honest wth yourself and decide if you need to stop. 4 out of 5 people need to in my opinion |

the reason y some ppl seem sharp high is because they smoke so much that when they r sober it throws them off. i used to smoke alot, when i started i was in a bad spot in my life. When things got better i kind of quit. i didnt start having fun smoking again until college, when it was more casual. and not just for the sake of getting high, but as an extra curricular activity. from some of my experiences/ observations: if a girl finds out your high it is a turn off in alot of cases. if your worried about taking breaks will affect your game, then maybe smoking has already affected your life alot. in my opinion, make smoking more of a casual weekend thing than a habitual one. u will be able to enjoy it more. |

Every weed smoker who has quit, -including myself- has commented on how sharp and alive they felt after they quit. Drop the habit man, you'll be amazed at how fantastic you'll feel a couple of weeks down the line, yet alone a couple of months. |

Smoking every day does definately not do you any good. If you do it more rarely, it will be more fun too. |

I myself am a stoner.. i smoke a quarter(3 blunts) within a day all week with my smokin buddies. it's rediculous but i haven't found it to have an effect on my game. I've never been in the game without being a stoner so idk the effects of quitting it would be, but im willing to bet you'd be better off if you did. The only way i am effected is that it sticks to my rep and girls are less interested in me at my highschool, but it's like choosing candy for me if i go anywhere else. If i'm actually high, i am visibly different socially. I've never successfully gamed a girl while high, but on the contrary I have while drunk and/ or high on some kind of pill( Don't worry i quit that bad habit) |

Grass can affect your interpretation of social situations. I suppose this might interfere with your game. |

Try and stop or at least cut down... I feel it affects your game dramatically as you at the back of your mind have that feeling that if you game that night doesn't go to well it doesn't matter you can just get high. So it stops you driving yourself into becoming bigger and better at the game p.s Never Sarge whilst HIGH !!! |

Slowly start working your way down until you are smoking at a reasonable rate and then try to stop cold turkey. Pot is a mentally addicting drug, not physically, and I stopped cold turkey and I wanted to smoke pretty bad for a week or two after but ever since I've been clean.

I agree with Matt Bo Bat, after the initial week it got far easier. The real challenge is when you're hanging out with your mates who are smoking pot. Not to sounds like a school teacher, you just got to say no! You'll feel a stronger for saying no! |

It looks like you went wrong when you started smoking everyday.Now, you don't need to completely cut yourself off, cutback to weekends and you will be sharper And you will start getting that "first timer effect". thats two wins. It's all about self control, if you smoke it every time you crave/ spend all your money and/or time on weed it you need to take a break. doing marijuana for recreation is different than doing it for entertainment or habit. the first means you want to, the later means you have to. |

im thinking Mystery has said alcohol messes up your game, and i think weed will do the same. both of them will put you in an altered state of mind, so you may not pick up on important details (body language, IOI's, etc) |
