That's dumb, you need like a dime to get the effects of the cannabis and I'm pretty sure this topic is about to get locked for being gray areaish :X
i dunno how old OP is and i would agree that anyone younger than 17-18 shouldnt be smoking pot but if it takes you a dimebag to even get high you must have the BIGGEST TOLERANCE EVER.

and so long as this thread remains an intelligent civil discussion of the effects and use of marijuana and NOT a spam and flamefest i dont see an issue in it remaining open

i have a panic attack disorder and the only thing i've ever found that keeps it under control is weed.

today i went through a whopping four panic attacks in less than two hours. and because i didn't have anything to calm myself down with, i'm still on the verge right now. ever since i quit smoking everyday to keep under control, i've been a complete mess.

SSRI's, for the most part, keep me thinking rational. but there's nothing else to keep me calm

once the summer starts, i'll be on it again to keep calm.

agree with triton. there is NO possible way you have to smoke an entire 1/8 yourself to feel the effects of cannabis unless you've been smoking constantly for the last year or two. i can take one hit and feel some kind of effects.

well, that is, unless you don't inhale and complain because you're the only one in the circle who is sober. and noone wants to be that person.

You must be doing it wrong. about $1 worth of weed gets me plenty high.

Why should I even need an excuse? Getting high is just a way to have fun/relax. To put it in a way you might understand, smoking weed is a way for me to get happy just like putting down people for having different lifestyles and insisting that you're the greatest person on earth gets you happy :P

I wasn't even talking about drugs, I was talking about people that have easily mutable disabilities making excuses. :lol:

I just want to point this out.

A lot of times, you only see the loud things. In Afghanistan, you see the Taliban, but fail to see the suffering families. Looking at other schools, you see the jocks, but not the people who mind themselves.

Just like here, you only see those who get high. Make a note that in all cases, it is only a small percentage of the actual population. Just because there's 5 or 6 people here who are speaking out doesn't mean everyone else agrees. They're just staying out of it.

Seriously, a dimebag to the face is enough to get me zooted for a good 3-4 hours...

Skyone is not saying he is better than anyone else. I know that he doesn't really care what others do as long as they aren't a danger to innocent people.

Know I smoke weed to have fun and to relieve stress. When I can't get a full nights sleep, I smoke to fall asleep quick and get the most out of it. I don't encourage it, but I don't try to stop people.
