Do you smoke cigarettes?Starting to feel dependent on marijuana.
My brain feels like it's actively trying to hurt me when I'm sober. Like it's not mine and it's trying to get out.
I do vape nicotine when I can’t keep the green stuff around (you pick up bad habits after half a decade slinging coffee at folks, I suppose).Do you smoke cigarettes?
Do you vape with mraijuana too? If you smoke it in joints with tobacco it could partly be nicotine addiction you're feeling.. Very odd way of doing it but replacing one compulsion with another might be good in the longer term.I do vape nicotine when I can’t keep the green stuff around (you pick up bad habits after half a decade slinging coffee at folks, I suppose).
Helps but is very fleeting.

agreed. It's why I try not to smoke it in public where-ever possible.Weed fucking stinks, man.
Not blowing me own trumpet here but never done drugs of any kind, and only smoked a couple of cigarettes whilst at school and that was only because who I hung around with were trying them at the time. Drugs, even weed has always frightened me, how would I feel, how would it make me behave, what would it do to my head etc. Which is daft really because I drink alcohol, love me red wine and also the odd pint or two, and although it's never made me get up and dance on tables it does sometimes make me miss the end of a programme, gives me giggles, and a fuzzy head on a Sunday morning.
A lot of us have vices of some kind, mines red wine
I don't drink every night, I make sure I have my nights off. But if I'm honest, the time I enjoy a wine most is when I'm cooking the evening meal, it's my chill out time. Also enjoy a glass with my meal. A pint of ale is only drunk on a match days, not in the house. I just enjoy my red wine, can't stand white. I could have chosen to be a lover of chocolate or cake or biscuits.....but I chose wineSame here, a couple of choking Bensons at school, a couple of ineffective puffs of weed on a joint being passed round at a party decades ago. That’s about it.
I could never really understand any of it until I started looking at drugs as ANY ‘mood-adjusting’ substance. Throw alcohol into that mix and I guess we are almost all at it. Made me think about the almost inbuilt need to make ourselves feel better. Drugs in all forms are a pretty unstoppable force. I guess how we manage our use irrespective of the form is the important bit.
I often wonder if I could live without the pleasure of real ale or red wine, both the mood-adjusting aspect and the social interaction too. Maybe, I dunno, it would be very very hard. Beer when in a pub and red wine with a meal. A bit worrying the way food starts to taste bland without it. That’s got to be the very first stepping stone to a dependency and/or alcoholism right?
I kind of fight that thought by making sure there are nights off - meaning I’ve still got control, I think. But, you have that first bit of a craving and it’s tempting. Wouldn’t take too much more for that craving to start to overwhelm. Can understand anyone getting in too deep with any drug before even realising it’s happened. Throw in some difficult circumstances and it must be so bloody hard to pull it back.
Just kind of see it as playing with fire but for some reason or other we all seem to do it. I guess some just get away with it so-to-speak, for others it turns into a nightmare. There but for the grace of god and all that.
