Potheads! Does weed make you motivated or cause you to procrastinate? | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 930283 Norway 05/14/2013 01:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I think it has a tendency to make people procrastinate if they overdo it, and if they get sort of "hooked." (Even if it's mostly psychological addiction not physical) That's certainly my experience as well. IMO it's not meant to be used/smoked more often than once or twice per month, optimally. If one is afraid of one's health and state of mind and so on. People are different though and there are those who can smoke a lot and not get too much affected by it. |

So it has a continual effect, even when smoked a few times a month? |

Eventually I feel like my brain is exhausted and stop doing work. |

Can you smoke more when beginning to fade, and get another few hours of focus? Does smoking weed mean you are limited to a few hours of work? Also, if you feel like fucking off, does weed motivate you to get started? thanks |

The carbon in smoking is damaging, weed however has no harmful effects. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 38724976 What are you trying to motivate yourself for? I've got a lifelong deal with ADD, probably. I'm wired to procrastinate with most things. Work, organizing house, etc. Everything that procrastinators procrastinate with. Eating weed is the better way, eh? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 39826780 United Kingdom 05/14/2013 01:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | kinda depends on if it is indica or sativa. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 39125939 but generally if you are a lazy sob on weed, you are going to be a lazy sob sober its not that simple either indica or sativa can have similar thc/cbd ratios neither have a specific job. anyway what about ruderalis? people often forget about that one. |

User ID: 16510251 United States 05/14/2013 02:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Well depends cannabis indica has more cannabinoids so it will give more of a couch lock more ment for sleeping or just wanting to chill.. now cannabis sativa has more THC so it gives a more head upper high and yeah it sometimes makes you just wanna do stuff, but at same time it depends on you lol, when i smoke i could do home work in my own area and at my own pace. now would i do actual work high? nah because it gets me too high now especially indicas lol but i do know some people that can work hard and good after smoking a little joint :/sdfhasdfshasd/: Those who live by the sword die by the sword, those who don't live by the sword are subject to those who do. |

If you are a hustler like me, weed enhances your life. Its not the plant, its the person. Just like closet angry people shouldn't drink. I wake up, smoke five bongs, then run 5 to 8 miles almost every morning. Then I smoke more weed and lift weights. Then I go to work and after work I party with friends or do an adventure. I'm 40 years old. Weed is great for me. But it may not be good for you. |

Someone's a little paranoid lol You are right though. Some makes you feel like a nap is totally necessary right now. Some makes you feel happy and want to enjoy the world. Generally, though, smoke too much, and you will be too stupid to do anything, even if you are smoking the perfect strain. The whole short term memory loss is REAL lol, so being totally stoned does not make for a productive person. |
