--- Quote from: Ant on November 10, 2002, 11:04:11 PM ---Hey man I'm completely with you.  Fuck Drugs and Alcohol.  I never got into weed for a few reasons.  When I talked to people that were high, they would think that they were sooooo intelligent but in reality they made no sense.  Thus, whats the point of increased creativity if you can't articulate your thoughts to others.  I hate the fact that at times I am a poor articulater as it is, my fear is to be intelligent but not be able to communicate well. I think that would be a depressing life, to know a lot but never be able to pass that info on or even show what you know.  So for that reason weed isn't all that to me.  

The other reason is that I really don't think it makes me more intelligent.  I think it makes me block out my common sense that would normally restrain my thinking, so I'd get idea's I normally wouldn't get, but unless your an artist those ideas don't help you at all.  I'm not an artist. I enjoy being objective and  seeing the world like it truely is.  I strive to see life for what it is and to understand things.  But weed takes that away.  

Finally, I think being intoxicated represents lost time.  I can't learn anything new when I'm high.  Maybe I think I'm learning but its mostly nonsense thoughts I'm having.  I can't reason my way through a problem.  Or read a book when I'm high.  I just sit around doing nothing and wasting away a few hrs of my life until I sober up.  Even then, like you said sometimes its awhile before your mind completely defogs.  All that time wasted bothers me.

Alcohol I like more, but I don't drink much at all.  Maybe every now and then.

Either way, fuck what people say, if you want to quit you definitely can.  Its probably annoying at first, but if you really dedicate a few months of your life to learning and developing as a person.  Eventually you notice 6 months go by and your like damn I came a long way.  When you notice that its not going to be hard at all to resist the urge to smoke or drink.  

Those are my thoughts.

Peace

YO MAN EXACTLY!!! U bring me support man cuz I feel what ur saying and much of what U said are my reasons...

This is a tight quote I read: "What hashish gives with one hand it takes away with the other: that is to say, it gives the power of imagination and takes away the ability to profit by it." Baudelaire (1860)

Yeah I am an artist though dude...always have been.  from singing and trying to write story books as I was a kid to like rapping and making beats now. I used to think getting high helped me creatively but I see I am wrong. When I get high I cant focus on my beat and get lazy and decide not to make a beat anyway. Also what U were sayin it makes u creative, or at least it makes u THINK ur creative and shit but in real its just a feeling and its hard to deny that, at least thats what I think...i dont really wanna smoke my sack right now and confirm it lol.

Yeah whats the point of being creative when U cant do anything about it, Ull just think "oooh man thats a greeeat IDEA..if u have enuff motivation to write that idea down lol then U just forget about it five minutes while ur writing it down!!!! and the next morning u get totally confused reading it cuz u dont know what u relly meant and U didnt articulate enuff.

And then the time lost...U lose the time U get high and a day or 2 afterwards I am mentally clouded...I never thought about that before but now that I took a berak of 1.5 months from weed and smoked regularly for a week again I see the difference. So in the end my decision iz to quit

I WILL stay away from intoxication from November 19th-December 31'st baby no matter how hard it is and how ppl around me will be getting drunk or high. Thanks for ur post Ant.

Ant:
no prob man... good luck
