Weeds and thought

[Ozziwtf]

While I recognize that telling someone to stop doing something is considered negative here, smoking weed actually is. I had my own experience with it, it hooked me in and helped me with my social anxiety. But after a while, I didn't need it anymore and still used it for a few years. The thing is, it makes your body feel anxious which sooner or later spreads to your mind, causing paranoia. There is this constant nagging anxiety that your mind feels and starts thinking that it owns this feeling, and you slip into this state of constant fear. Every single though you have gets twisted by this fear and that's why you start having really weird thoughts even about healthy stuff. If you stop after years of usage, it will take a few months to get better, but the good news is, it isn't as addictive as smoking or alcohol, so it won't be too hard. If you stop, you should feel better within a few months.
By the way, this method where the body gets sick and gradually infects the mind is in general how all drugs work, in my opinion. I really liked living like there was no tomorrow too, so it felt bad to realize this, especially when I realized how much work it will involve to stop using them, but hey, it will be way better afterwards.
