Hello Autoflower.net users. I've been thinking about the amount of weed I've been smoking over the last few years. I started about 2 and a bit years ago, at first it was just the odd joint or two when hanging with friends, then it became a weekly thing, and then I finally started growing my own. Since then, I've felt like I've had an unlimited supply of the stuff and in the evenings, I smoke it just because I've got it.

Mostly it's because I find I get really bored an hour or two before bed. Everyone has gone to sleep, nobody is around. It's just me and my thoughts. I always find the last few hours before bed really boring and I'm never entertained by anything unless it's something I'm really into or I've smoked a bit.

I've found that cannabis has affected me in a few ways. Sometimes at night I feel dependent on it to avoid thinking too much about bad things, yet I'm not dependent on it. I've just gone a month without smoking when I went on vacation and didn't think about it once at all. I was busy all day every day and in the evenings, I just went straight to bed exhausted and slept so well. Over here though, it's not like that.

Generally, it hasn't affected my life style but my friends have let it affect theirs. They never want to do much except smoke nowadays, it's quite depressing because I don't want to smoke as much. My lifestyle and my well being have only been improved by cannabis, I've been much more outgoing and I participate in a lot more activities than I used to. The only negative ways it's affected me is what I said above; I can't find ways to keep my mind quiet and entertained in the evenings without weed.

How has it affected you? Do you find yourself in similar situations? What do you do to change it?
 
Man I think you need a new hobby to occupy your mind.
I tend to read a lot during those few hours before bed and that tends to tire me out.
Pick up a few books by ken bruen.. he's a fiction crime writer.. does a set of novels on a drunken gardai called jack Taylor... Gardai in Ireland is Irish for police.

Some gripping readings there my friend, and the novels Will be on tv this coming September, channel 4 I think for you UK guys.

I use growing weed to help me mellow out.. I'm not growing my crop just to smoke it, I grow it to take my mind of of the court room I'm in on a daily basis because my son's mother is a complete and utter twat who has stopped me from seeing him for the last 8 weeks.

Sorry for the ramble but check out them books man.

Peace out. love your kids like there is no tomorrow.

Sometimes I use it to quiet the voices in my head, but more ofteen I use it to give the voices a megaphone. I think it is a very useful tool that allows us to expand our thoughts, and hold a mirror mirrorup to ourselves. Sometimes we dont like what we see, and I know I went through a bit of a dark period which very well may have been exascerbated by cannabis. Nevertheless I think it is a great tool to help in personal growth. I would reccomend using it less as a means to distract yourself, however. Its kind of a double edged blade in that regard.
 
I like smoking at night to but thats because I end up reading and NOT going to bed. Get smoked and watch the ramblings in my head while I wait to fall asleep. I like taking a hit at different times through the day as well. It relaxes my shoulders and neck, keeps me from getting irritated by the general public, keepse from being overwhelmed by politics. I also have an easier time finding the words I want to explain myself and say what I want. I have seizures and if I can keep a buzz from the hits here and thefe I dont have my seizures. I dont smoke these days so now I use carbamazepine to control them which has led to breast development and elevated thyroid markers.

Us humans can get addicted to anything. Im addicted to researching and reading about cultures, conciousness, altered states of conciousness and the affects of different plants amd fungi on humans. If life gets to busy and I cant read or google I get irritable and everything!
