Should I Feel Bad About Still Being a Stoner?
Question by Jeremy Lin: Should I feel bad about still being a stoner?
I smoked a couple times in high school with my friends but never regularly. As a freshman in college, I got really depressed at my lack of friends and my average grades and ended up becoming heavily addicted to weed. When I wasn’t studying or in class, I was high. I made it through the year making almost no friends (other than dealers) and having surprisingly good grades despite my addiction.
Over the summer I probably only smoked once a week or so. It was nice, and I did notice the mental clarity that returned from my sobriety..
Now I’m back in college and am having issues again. I’ve gained a social life this year (and I’ve had sex twice already when I was a virgin before) so I don’t smoke when I’m going out or being around people. The problem is I spend most all of my weekdays on campus studying. I don’t like going out as much during the week, so after I study, I just like to relax and play video games with my friends. Which is perfect for weed since that’s about all you’re good at when high. I’m definitely addicted (it’s real, don’t lie to yourself) and it’s not that I don’t like smoking (I work out regularly so there haven’t been physical affects) I just feel bad about the fact that I am a pothead. I could quit if I NEEDED to, but I don’t have any reason. Marijuana has it’s role in my life as something I do to relax after studying and working hard all day. Should I feel bad about being a stoner?

Its a fact that drugs kill the brain cells, you might not find any problem with it now but it WILL catch up with you later in life!

No you should not. If it makes you happy, helps you excel in school why should it even be considered bad? I really hate it when people are so damn bias about marijuana its a herb not a drug get the facts straight. And btw weed does not kill brain cells, the only thing does kill brain cells is the lack of oxygen to brain.Weed also can prevent Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s…Anyways, I do not think there is anything wrong with smoking weed and you shouldn’t feel bad as well. Weed makes you alert and helps you focus (unless your a light weight and let the high take control) Don’t believe what people say how weed can make you brain dead and has psychotic effects for heavy users I have so many family members that wake and bake everyday yet still have their lives together and are 100% sane. I’m a stoner too and I will never ever feel bad since this is MY LIFE and no one can ever make me feel bad about it. You should do the same 🙂 Best wishes.
