Cant enjoy weed anymore. any1 else?

I used to love smoking weed, i used to fiend it and it used to be a very social thing for me.. to smoke weed with my friends and a bunch of people... but couple years ago i got really depressed and was smoking weed while i was depressed. So i was just hanging out at home by myself depressed smoking weed alone. and it made me really paranoid and have bad anxiety. Especially when i did it with other people.. so i stopped for like 1 year. cuz i hated the high so much

when i came out of depression i thought, i should be ok to smoke weed again, seeing how i was back to normal... but i was wrong.. when i smoke it. even alone i get really paranoid and get anxiety.. feeling like everyone is judging me and thinking about every little thing... instead of just chilling out like i did when i first started smoking...

it fucking sucks, cuz all my buddies still smoke, and i want to. not cuz they do.. cuz i want to.. but i cant cuz i get so anti-social when im high.

sorry for rant. but was woundering if anyone had the same problem??? advice??

Yep. Had to stop smoking when I hit about 24/25. The paranoia and anxiety was driving me crazy.

If you don't need it, don't use it... save lots of money...
Have you tried a 100% Sativa? or a 100% Indica?
Maybe one of these types is best for you...

not really.. havent tried or noticed.. but i live in a small town... not alot of people grow weed that they know the % of sativa or indica..... we just get run of the mill hay hydro here.. rarely get a brand name weed like lemon haze or bubbelicious... if we do the prices are fuckign insane... and if i smoked it id go into a coma lol.

anyways.. fuck... i think the depression really fucked with my head... but i really am over it... this sucks.. anyways... thanks guys

I know for me, it all depends on what mood I am in.

If I am sad then weed will make me more sad, if I am happy then it will make me more happy. It all depends on my mood and I choose to smoke only good, high quality marijuana.

Low grade shit sucks and makes me feel like shit but High grade herb will make me feel great.

depends on the weed for me personally but it also depends on the people ur with some people jus make u feel judged or wutever. i used to feel that way all the time when i was younger in middle school and high school felt like an idiot for being stoned after acouple nice hoots but than i realized the guys i was smokin with were fucking asshole douce bags so i ditched them and dnt rilly give a fuck if i stutter when im stoned or jus stare into outter space or say funny things lol wheres my bong...........

fuckin word man... i have smoke with assholes before... but the friends i have now are chill.. but i still get the anxiety... the funny thing is i. exchange marijuana for.....well. i dont wanna say it online... but i dont smoke it... i love the smell, i love growing it. i love touching it. i love the look of it. i fucking admire it.... but i cant smoke it..... kidna like a real woman. lol....

Same here pretty much... I've found that I can only smoke a tiny amount, then I feel alright - more than that, and it's not fun.
For me it was a few bad trips from acid and speed years ago - it's like that panicky feeling got imprinted on my brain, and can be re-triggered too easily.

man your just getting absolutely baked when you do smoke. Instead of smoking of an entire bowl or four hits, just take one good rip and step outside

you just need to get back into the smokin rhythm. This happens to anyone i talk to that stops for a lil while, they smoke again for the first time and get absolutely balls to the f&*n wall baked and don't enjoy themselves because they are smokin with people that smoke all the time.


Its all about tolerance

lol.. a wise man once told me when i was trippin out.. "there is nothing to be paranoid about" and when i thought about it, he was right.. i was just over thinking everything and looking too much into the "what if" if you just chill and realize that you are going to feel some sort of paranoia know its the weed lol.

But i did have a time where i couldnt smoke more than 1 hit.. or else i would get too high and start thinking the weed was laced.. even though my buddy grew it.. i would think "maybe he laced it to get me hooked so i will only buy from him!" and all this shit.. well i still get paranoid about my weed being laced sometimes.. idk why.. but when i get a different high, it kind of scares me because i dont know what to expect and i dont know if the new high is all from the weed.. or another drug. i have only smoked weed and nothing else so idk what any other drugs would feel like. at some moments i feel like i will pass out because my heart rate is so high and i feel like im not breathing enough to keep my heart satisfied.. i then get up and start jumping around trying to get some blood flowing. and that is what helps the most. getting my blood pumping really helps my breathing which then helps my paranoia which gets rid of all the bad thoughts. problem solved for me haha..

not saying its wat YOU were doing but abusing collie will do that to u smoking to smoke not for peice of mind or meditative purposes,,,,, its not a toy thing

I think that if you just get up and move around you'd ne fine. The problem is that your probably sitting on the couch focusing on your high and not really embracing it for what it is. Try doing something you love while this feeling is going on. For me its cooking.

I always enjoy weed.



You must be doing something wrong?
Regardless, don't do it if you don't like it!

dude you've done nothing wrong, i have been in the same position and its no picnic! After a bout of servere depression i had the exact same reaction and the way i handled it was to only have small....and i mean small hits on a joint for a year and to gradually build on it once i felt comfortable with what id smoked.

dont let the fact that people can smoke more than you and feel fine get in your head cos all it does is feeds the paranoia.

if you need to talk to a like minded person pm me 000

dude if u hav depression go to cali n get a medical card for smoking weed then u can pick watever starin u want it can b weak n it can b strong....so u can experiment on which styrain is good for u

My story is kinda similar to yours.

When I first started smoking I absolutely loved it and smoked for years and was fine. Towards the end of this my life went downhill (not because of weed) and I went into a kind of depression where I would get somewhat paranoid or anxiety, it wasnt bad at the time though. I could still smoke as much as I wanted and nothing bad would happen.

Then what happened was I quit smoking for 3 months and during this time I had a series of panic attacks, IDK what from but it might have been from quitting weed and being too anxious. That was about 1 1/2 years ago. Ever since then whenever I smoke I get kinda freaked out and it sets off kind of a panic where I cant enjoy my high anymore. It sucks because I used to be able to smoke as little or as much as I wanted and I would feel fine but now if I smoke just a few hits I start getting like that. Im also dealing with some mental and physical problems though, IDK what but Ive been going to doctors for it they cant figure out what.

If theres nothing wrong with you my advice would be to just try and build up your tolerance, theres no reason to be paranoid its just all in your mind when you have nothing else to do. Try to stay positive when you get high and enjoy it. After you build your tolerance up and get used to the feeling you should start being able to smoke as much as you want and nothing bad will happen. Anxiety, panic, paranoia, etc. its all in your mind. Life is short, you have no time for those negative feelings try to live up every moment of your life by being as happy as you can and enjoying life.

I guess its all about frame of mind. Maybe you need a longer break? maybe you should try smoking in a better environment, try to keep things happy, listen to calming music, keep your thoughts good etc.

thanks for all the replies.. i appreciate.. and makes me feel better that im not the only one that has had this problem... i smoked like .2 in my hash pipe last night and just tried to stay positive and not think about the high... i watched futurama and that 70' show. and laughed my ass off.. not even thinking about other shit... so im pretty sure ur right.. its just the tolerance level.. i need to build it back up... its funny.. ive been friends with this one dude for like 4 years.. and i got him into chronic.. and i remember showin him up taking in 3 times the amount as he could.. and he was amazed... now its reveresed.. he can take more then me.. alot more. and he thinks he knows more about weed then i do... so i just start talking about hps/mh.. strains.. ph levels and grow designs... and he just shuts up... he doesnt know shit about growing... hahaha..

annnyways... il lsmoke .2 every night or so.. then keep going up.. thanks guys

not rilly sure where this you gotta smoke a hay bale of weed if ur true chronic nonsense came from. im a notorious one hoot bandit, sneak upstairs to my sitting room rip on the bong and off i go shopping yard work or jus wutever. i get paranoid sometimes too like if u go to tim hortons and ask for milk and cookies muther fukers act weird i dnt rilly give a shit but its kind of a buzz kill. suspose to make u relax not get pissed cuz u gotta repeat urself 3 times and there trying to tell u u ordered 12 cookies when u kno u only want 6 chocolate chip.

lol yeah.. when i first smoked weed... me and my buddies were pretty dumb about it.... smoke it like beside mcdonalds.. go in like right after.. order a shit load of stuff... eyes just blood shot as fuck.. reaking of dro. people looking at us funny... especiialy when iwas eating lol.. i never even thought twice about it tho... was like i dont fucking care. im high and your not. suck my dick

wish i still had that attitude about it haha... but im easing my way up there.... im high atm..and chill.. not paranoid at all.

happy smoking... never let anyone get you down.

Live long and prosper.
