Ok so throughout this blog we’ve looked at many different reasons why smoking weed in moderation is the way forward instead of baking up every day and night. We’ve talk about how just the process of smoking logically can’t be good for your lungs, even though your buddy who knows about things, who happens to be a smoker as well, keeps telling you otherwise. I’ve said enough about the health risks etc I’ll respect any reader to use their own initiative and common sense on this one. We looked at side effects like lack of drive. Today I want to explore when “the drugs do work” and when your addiction turns from the weed itself to being your way out!
We haven’t all been there, but we have!
Without getting to deep on this one, life is strange place where despite all your planning you never really know what’s gonna happen next. That being true, sometimes we can find ourselves stuck in the bottom of a big ass hole you’ve been blindly digging even deeper every night while you’ve been smoking up. Sometimes it might not even be your fault at all, like losing a loved one or suffering major disappointment or being subject to social bullying, which as Facebook & social media grow deeper into our lives is becoming a increasingly more significant silent killers. Whatever the situation be it of your doing or not, first and fore mostly I or nobody in this world has the right to judge you and I my intentions in this article are to help you realise you’re probably not the first to have walked in those footsteps. So I guess this is where I say “I’ve been there” etc etc, but that could never be true, and ultimately we all suffer from millions of different causes that bring us down, and get you hooked on using a substance to make it all go away. Now there I’ve definitely been, and I’m sure if you’ve found your way onto this page you have too.
I got problems, who doesn’t?
Now right to the point, you kept telling people and yourself “Nah, things are cool, I’m fine” but meanwhile things got way too much to handle. You picked up some weed one night and smoked it, and without really thinking about it you did the same the next morning, and before you realised it you’re smoking all the time around the clock. When your partner, or loved one see the obvious changes happening to you, and pull you up on it, you tell them “Nah, I haven’t got a problem – this shit is good for me, it keeps me happy!” The people around you are forced to buy this story but secretly are fearing you’re destroying yourself slowly and slowly but of course we’ve certainly all been there “CAPTAIN RED ALERT our lifestyle is under threat, INCOMING…. now ATTTACK”
How High and How Deep?
I’ll admit it, as a fellow sufferer I bounced people off me with excuses, sure I wasn’t fooling anybody but what did I care? I smoked everyday till stupid hours in the morning fantasising about how I was gonna claim my life / win happiness back HOLLYWOOD STYLE!! Instead I’d find myself in the 24 hour supermarket junking on frozen pizzas and any other bullshit I could find. I didn’t have any money anymore, I stopped working ages ago and stopped caring longer before that. After justifying it by becoming a freelancer, I did work every now and again, but I wasn’t doing shit. I was getting high, and turning down the sound to my problems, cause it’s got to be said weed is really good at doing that! Credit due where deserved, it doesn’t work over night but moreover the more you smoke it the easier it gets to dim the lights on problematic areas of your life. This can go for years, and the thing is you’d be happy during that time, as ignorance is bliss right? We’ve talked in detail about denial over these couple of years, and the dangerous thing leaving something rooting in your fridge freezer that you eat from everyday, is that the bacteria spreads.
A little about me…
This shit happened to me also and well I just got fat, like really fat. I’m funny guy and I make fun outta my big belly all the time, as to show people it’s not something that really affects me. However what’s really going on is I’m creating a defence shield throwing out red herrings, and trying to throw people off the scent, because the truth is that it does affect me a lot. It depresses me so much that instead of going down 2 stones I put on another 2 stones, and I ain’t a tall guy either, this weight means I don’t have any more clothes fit me anymore as I’ve grown bigger than all of them. So who am I kidding, telling you I don’t care, cos when I smoke I actually don’t and that’s the scary thing.
Turn out of the lights.
You can have serious problems in your life and using weed on a regular basis is a great way of avoiding them. It takes a bit of mental training at first, because initially getting high on a bad day can really go wrong as paranoia could creeps in. I think this problem is something nearly all regular mature weed smokers can relate with. If any of this sounds like you, my advice is to not over think anything, and clean up. Like alcohol, weed isn’t a bad thing at all, the drug is amazing and we all should appreciate it properly by not raping the fuck outta it every second of the day to the point you don’t even feel that high when you smoke anymore. Truth is you won’t hear the real advice you need to from me, but CLEAN UP!! and once your head is clean and clear the answers to all your problems will suddenly appear. Then it’s just a case of sticking to your resolve…. and like millions of people out there in the world that have walked this road, you really will then be fine. Good luck reader!!
