    I've never smoked much dope, and none since I started working

    When I was a student, I used to have the odd smoke in social company, or occasionally on my own when I was bored.

    At first I quite liked the feeling it gave, but for sure it caused me motivational problems, I just couldnt be bothered much with lectures or studying when I was smoking.

    On saying that, I knew people who could genuinely function normally after periods of being stoned, I think it depends on the person.

    Right now,I couldn't comtemplate smoking dope, I couldnt go to an office and do my work if I had cannibis in my system, I just wouldnt be productive enough.

    How do you find dope ?

    Used to smoke it all the time. Just makes me paranoid and introspective now. Beer ftw.

    You did it wrong.

    Depends on the environment you're in while smoking it. If it was just with a few mates while playing the PS3 you might be pretty monged and wouldn't be able to concentrate properly for a while. If it was while walking along the beach or otherwise keeping active then the effects aren't so apparent.

    I'd never go into work/college while stoned though.. that's just a bad idea all round

    All behind me now and after so many years of absence dont think it would agree with me but I wasn't a heavy user anyway ,was more of a weekend toker because it would make me to laid back and there is no way I would have being able to function every day on the stuff as some people did .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 993 ✭✭✭offaly1


    Never done it... Never appealed to me to be honest. But if ya are looking for some, you could try Kildare street in Dublin! :rolleyes:

    Smoked hash once and it made me feel dizzy and completly shattered. No thanks, life's tough enough!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,564 ✭✭✭Naikon


    Shi.te. Done nothing. Maybe I smoked the wrong stuff. I prefer Alcohol but don't agree with banning cannabis - a natural plant. Alcohol is worse than cannabis imo.

    Possible, but I did it exactly the same way as my friends and they were all pretty baked.

    Dito for me. Tried it but just didn't do nothing.
    Must be a medical thing that its didn't react the way it does with others.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,481 ✭✭✭Fremen


    I don't enjoy the high anymore myself. You get used used to it and grow to really like it if you smoke on a regular basis though. In secondary school, there was a time that I'd get through an eighth a week. Not a huge amount by stoner standards but still.

    Opium's a natural plant too. So's hemlock.

    Seems like quite a lot of people have trouble getting stoned the first time. Not really sure why that is.

    Poppies?



    I smoke fairly regularly to be honest, most days. for the past 3 years.

    It doesnt seem to cause me any motivational problems, but i dont smoke before/during work or college, i treat it like alcohol and don't drive or do anything else you wouldnt when drunk. Even though at this stage the effects are lessened on me but still havent noticed any negative effects on me, im no more paranoid than the next man, and i do fairly well at work and in college.

    It clearly effects everyone differently.

    When I was prone to being without an agenda and getting nothing done I sorted myself out with one simple rule for dope : Just smoke it at the end of the day when you have absoloutely nothing left to do and you'll be grand. It's a remarkably boring drug anyway if your stoned all the time. You just ... don't really get high anymore. Just exist in this permanent haze. I don't know how people do it.

    Like a nice indica myself. Not a fan of the unnaturally lighted and watered sativa strains with all that THC and no CBD.

    CBD is your friend. The unsung hero that gives weed it's chill.

    The only annoying thing about weed is the giggles eventually go away no matter what. The giggles are the best part.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,481 ✭✭✭Fremen


    Poppies?

    Yeah, I meant opium poppies.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,511 ✭✭✭saywhatyousee


    Some people say you do not get high the first time you smoke.
    I was trying to think back to my first j but i cant remember if i got high or not:pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 609 ✭✭✭DepecheHead101


    I just felt a sort of warm, tingly anticlimax the first time I smoked it. And I smoked quite a bit of it.

    The next night I had half the amount and was gone. Every cliche in the book. The lads that were with me were drinking and I couldn't stop laughing at the fact that they didn't know what I was feeling. They started flicking through the foreign language channels and all the oddball stuff at the very end of the Sky listings and I just lost it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 750 ✭✭✭onlyrocknroll


    I used to smoke it for a few years during my teens until one day I realised that I got no enjoyment from it whatsoever. I'd feel a little less sharp, a little more tired, and not an ounce happier

    Honestly I get a more pleasurable feeling from drinking a lot of coffee.

    p.s. I'm in favour of legalisation but the "it's a natural product" argument is very stupid.

    Same thing happened to me. It's like you reach a point where it starts having a different effect on your brain.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,372 ✭✭✭im invisible


    this dope be whack, bro'


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,292 ✭✭✭yeahimhere


    first time,it made me puke,second time...it made me puke!

    So obviously gave it a miss for many years. Tried it again a few times and either it was a different type of "dope" (not very knowledgeable with the varients!)or just the fact that i only had a couple of tokes and learned my limit but had a really nice giggly high.but never really took to it as i still associated it with making me sick or basically brain dead relaxed.Think it's just something personaly my body can't handle.I know I could never be able to go to work after smoking,but know people who can and fuction quite well.

    Generally I can function perfectly on it, I'm pretty tolerant now and being honest although I don't incredibly high from it, I prefer the relaxing buzz more enjoyable. I was going to a martial arts seminar before and I was at these French lads house beforehand and found it weird that they would all smoke before training, after reluctantly smoking and going to gym, that's when I realized that you can control the high, if you sit around in dark room smoking you will get tired but I actually have learned to be more productive when I smoke! When I'm smoking in my room I go on these weird cleaning binges where I clean the room from top to bottom, something I'd rarely do sober.
