I smoke weed every single day of my life. If I don't, I become very angry about life in general.
Do you think it's normal?

Has it occured to you just how sad that is.
My boyfriend is the same way, and every day I respect him less and less. :)
No, it's not normal.

You took a wrong way to deal with your anger. Forgive and live life, hun.


Did you know smoking weed could reduce your sperm count(maybe your sex drive, too)?
MAYBE? that's a definite. My boyfriend is a total loser. I'm considering just fucking around with other people cuz he's so incompetent.
If watching TV commercials and listening to music is enough for you, then you are on the right track.
You should be angry about life. That's normal for someone who is wasting it.
thats messed up dude... lemme start off by saying that i've never done drugs or even got really drunk. i dont hang with that crowd. if you hate life, see a therapist. dont fry ur brain. in retrospect, this is a temporary problem and weed does permanent damage... i know ppl who've done it. they were effed up then and bc of all the weed, they'll be effed up 4ever. there are always ppl to talk to even for free. and no one has to know. anger problems can be fixed. but dead brain cells dont come back to life. u kill them off with every joint and brain cells are one of the kinds of cells that when u kill, they dont come back... so do urself a favor b4 u wind up in a psych ward. get some help... google it... ull find a million sites that can help you... dude, if u dont stop, the weed wont make u feel better anymore and youll turn to something else... trust me, even though i dont do that stuff, ive seen ppl who have... and it never works out alright for them in the end... not trying to lecture u here like ur mom.. just speakin the truth
well its one thing to smoke for the enjoyment of being hi or the social aspect but if you only smoke cause otherwise you will be angry at the world you have a serious problem.
I used to smoke weed all day every day but now that I'm back at uni, away from my crazy ex-boyfriend and generally in a better place in my life, I don't do it so much anymore. I still enjoy a smoke, but it's not the be all or end all anymore. I'd advise you to take a look at your life and work out what it is that's making you angry in the first place, the absence of weed isn't what's making you angry, it's the presence of it that's stopping you from being angry. There must be something in your life that's making you feel like you need to escape it, work out what it is and get rid of it, then fill your life with things you enjoy that make you feel good about yourself. I know that's hard to do when you're in a rut but you just have to remember that life's too short to be sitting about getting stoned all day and you're the only person that can change it.
let me first say that weed is not a physically addictive substance, but you seem to have a psychological addiction to it. you're using weed the same way someone unhappy might escape their life with a video game, and it's up to you to decide if you're ok with that.

that having been said, i feel necessary to correct an earlier comment. weed does NOT kill braincells. let me repeat, weed does NOT kill braincells. the study that brought about that conclusion (commissioned by richard nixon when he rejected the study conducted by the American Bar Association and the American Medical Association opposing the prohibition of marijuana) used gas masks on the test animals and pumped so much smoke into them that the animals weren't getting enough oxygen to breathe. they were being suffocated, and braincell death is the first thing that happens when you suffocate. no other study has EVER shown that smoking weed kills braincells, and a study conducted at john hopkins found that there were no long term effects of marijuana use.

Smoking weed as a teen or younger will effect your brain development, though, so it is never good to start young.
But of course, many men would like to have a contraceptive for themselves, wouldn't they? We can't make you women jump through ALL the hoops can we? Haven't though of that, have you?
Man don't worry bout what these fools are sayin, live the way you want to and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. However everyday is a little much. like everything else, weed should be used in moderation. Try 3 times a week, and use a vaporizer or water bong because bongs filter bad shit out and vaporizer is just strait THC.

Also smoke responsibly, and don't let it control your life. What i mean by responsibly is not smoking before an exam or while you should be doing something for school or work.
Yo, I know what's wrong this is totally normal, when you stop smoking marijuana you go through withdrawal (Anger) as you described. You need to stop smoking everyday, and go through the withdrawal and realize the only reason you feel like shit is because you've been smoking. You WILL get angry and you will get MAD, but after the first week you will start to feel great. Then wait a few more weeks and start smoking only once every couple days and you will thank yourself. Your smoking too much and your tolerance is built up, you don't want to smoke too much when your young because you won't be able to join it later in life. Good luck in whatever you choose.
To Anna Again - if you hate your bf so much that you want to cheat on him, why don't you just dump him?
good for you.
false. it reduces your sperm count but more are produced by the second. and it actually increases pleasure during sex.
You need to stop posting without getting your facts straight! I can't stand people who post the way you do without any conclusive evidence but after school special myths. You've never even smoked but are trying to dictate how others should live their lives, well that's just morally presumptuous.


A paper in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) vol.
287 No. 9, March 6, 2002, pp. 1123-1131) found that long-term cannabis
users performed less well than shorter-term users and controls (people
who didn't use cannabis) in tests of memory and attention. The
long-term users averaged 23.9 years of use, compared with 10.2 years
in the shorter-term users. You can find an abstract at the American
Medical Association web site:
http://jama.ama-assn.org/issues/v287n9/a... , but access
to the full text requires subscription to the journal. Note that the
comments associated with the article (links to them are underneath the
abstract) indicate that some other investigators do not agree with
this conclusion.

Another study published in a Canadian medical journal (CMAJ 2002 Apr
2;166(7):887-91 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query...
found that: %u201CCurrent marijuana use had a negative effect on global IQ
score only in subjects who smoked 5 or more joints per week. A
negative effect was not observed among subjects who had previously
been heavy users but were no longer using the substance. We conclude
that marijuana does not have a long-term negative impact on global
intelligence.%u201D This study compared IQ scores of individuals aged 9-12
years before they started using cannabis, with their scores at 17-20
years. Light users, former users and non-users showed a gain in IQ
over the same period.

One reason for the decreased IQ and memory in consistent heavy users
could be the fact that long-term cannabis use has been found to
decrease blood flow to the front areas of the brain (Neurotoxicology
and Teratology 2001 Sep-Oct; vol 23 pp. 437-43 Frontal lobe
dysfunction in long-term cannabis users by Lundqvist T, Jonsson S,
Warkentin S. of the Division of Medical Neurochemistry, Lund
University Hospital, 221 85, Lund, Sweden
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query...

A study published in Public Health and Nutrition, June 2001, vol. 4
pp. 781-786 (Dietary intake and nutritional status of US adult
marijuana users: results from the Third National Health and Nutrition
Examination Survey. By Smit E, Crespo CJ. of the Department of Social
and Preventive Medicine, SUNY School of Medicine, University at
Buffalo, Buffalo, NY 14214, USA.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query...
) found that marijuana users have lower levels of carotenoids in the
serum. The authors concluded this was associated with different
dietary habits: %u201CWe found higher cigarette-smoking rates and higher
consumption of sodas and alcohol, specifically beer, among marijuana
users than among non-current marijuana users. Marijuana users also
consumed more sodium, fewer fruits, and more pork, cheese, and salty
snacks.%u201D Carotenoids are important anti-oxidants which help to
prevent cancer and other diseases. An increased risk of these
diseases might be due not so much to marijuana use itself as to the
lifestyle led by many who use it. Better attention to nutrition, in
order to ensure a good intake of fresh fruit and vegetables,
particularly the red, yellow and orange ones, will help to boost
antioxidant status (see below)

A review of various studies came to the conclusion that: %u201CRegular
marijuana use can lead to extensive airway injury and alterations in
the structure and function of alveolar macrophages, potentially
predisposing to pulmonary infection and respiratory cancer.%u201D Alveolar
macrophages are cells in the lungs that help clear away debris and
bacteria. (Current Opinions in Pulmonary Medicine, March 2001, vol 7
pp 43-61, Airway effects of marijuana, cocaine, and other inhaled
illicit agents. by Tashkin DP of the Division of Pulmonary and
Critical Care Medicine, UCLA School of Medicine, Los Angeles,
California 90095-1690
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query...
) Again, to counteract these effects, a diet high in antioxidants
would be helpful.

Obviously, marijuana smoked as joints and mixed with tobacco could
carry all the health risks associated with cigarette smoking. The use
of marijuana alone might be implicated in cancer. However, one review
concluded that: %u201CWhile there is no doubt that marijuana smoke contains
carcinogens, an increase in cancer among users has thus far been
anecdotal. Because of the long latent period between cancer induction
and initiation of cigarette smoking, the full story is yet to be
told.%u201D (International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology, July 1998,
vol. 1 pp 71-80, Health aspects of cannabis: revisited. by Hollister
LE. of Harris County Psychiatric Center, University of Texas-Houston,
Houston, TX http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query...
) In support of this statement, I only found one recent paper in
Medline describing a case of cancer in one marijuana user. This in
itself is not absolute proof.

L E Hollister also concluded that: %u201CMany older concerns about adverse
effects on health (chromosomal damage, 'cannabinol psychosis',
endocrine abnormalities, cardiac events, impaired immunity) no longer
seem to elicit much interest. Continuing concerns about the adverse
cognitive effects of chronic use indicate that these can be
demonstrated by proper testing; some studies suggest that they may be
long-lasting. Although cannabis does not produce a specific psychosis,
the possibility exists that it may exacerbate schizophrenia in persons
predisposed to that disorder.%u201D i.e. the effects tend to be more on
brain function than on other diseases, and it could worsen the status
of people who have a tendency to schizophrenia.

I have not found anything specific about diet in relation to marijuana
use. However, a diet rich in antioxidants will tend to counteract the
effect of many toxins and thus would probably be helpful against the
toxic effects of marijuana. This is a diet rich in fresh fruit and
vegetables, with perhaps additional (although not extreme) intake of
vitamins A, C and E. Red wine is also high in antioxidants :) and so
is green tea.

did you know weed has been proven to be less bad than accohol
so its better than drinking every day

* fart * i just farted really
dude go 2 rehab and get some help my friend is doing it at only 13 drugs arent gonna take you nowere
A Lot of peeps smoke weed ere day were im from. i just swooped up my homie from his house at one in the mournin to blaze somecronic real quick n shit. We feel normal smoking everyday in our lives we do a grip of shit. i go to college my homie works at food city.
obviously,weed makes u happy so keep smokin it..
its true i used to smoke until my friend show me this thing where it make ur spem bad and balls srink i think
Listen up everyone who thinks smoking weed everyday is bad.
I dont do anything,not a damn thing.I dont go out clubbing(like prob half the retards on here do)I dont go out and buy expensive shit for myself,I dont go to the movies,I dont spend 100 dollars a day on taxi rides to work.
I dont do anything.If all I want is a little luxary for myself called weed,then im gonna have it.And whoever thinks the same way should have it to.everyone else can go drink themselves to death,and keep saying that weed is worse,while your passed out in some ditch and dont know how you got there.
F--kin right! I blaze everyday before work, after work, no matter what I do i'm almost always blitzed. I have friends, I go out and do things. The stoner sterotype of lazy, fat, stupid people smoking a drug *cough* PLANT *cough* is a joke. Your balls wont shrink, your sperm count may go down but it can go back up when you stop. Just like I quit smoking when my fiancee was pregnant means you can quit when you want to have children.
I totally agree with the two above comments.. I blaze up every day... n u know what? I F*CKING LOVE IT!! I mean ffs its a natural plant that grows in the ground.. it affects people differently... & yes there are some people that smoke green & it de-motivates them, makes them lazy, become dole-bludging sht eaters that sit on their ass all day smoking weed with my fricking tax money etc... but there are other daily marijuana users, such as myself & many of my friends who manage to hold down a full time job, & live a normal life..

It is a natural plant ffs!! & as far as im concerned alcohol is far far worse than weed... for example.. drunk drivers.. you never hear about a stoned guy that caused a 5 car pile-up... domestic violence.. never hear about a stoned guy that beat up his mrs ay, or a stoned guy that stabbed someone etc... (yes im sure it does happen but my point is alcohol is much much worse).

Anyway dude, everyone is different.. the people are on here telling you how sad it is etc.. just ignore them, they are uptight mthafkas that need 2 chill th fk out n have some respect for other peoples choices!

If you want to quit, then I wish you all the luck in the world.. if you enjoy smoking it every day.. n u see no reason why u should stop.. then keep toking bro!! Im sure there will come a time in my life where i wanna cut back/quit.. but its not guna be till I WANT to.. dont let these fools put you down! Most of the stoners ive met are awesome chilled out, laid back people! Which is more than I can say for all you rude c*nts who dont smoke it n look down on us because we do..

anyway I LOVE MARIJUANA.. at least it aint crack =D & if it was really that bad, it wouldnt be legal in some countries:)

& here is a little something for those of you who are complaining about how bad it is... =)

Pot is a plant,
That grows in the ground.
If God didn't want it,
It wouldn't be around.
So all you f*ckers that don't get high,
Shut the f*ck up and give it a try!
its normal to smoke everyday
but not that normal to be angry all the time
think about it this way
if you went to a doctor you would get prescribed some drug that calms you down but comes with side effects that are absent in marijuana use
these side effects are damage to your heath in general as in liver damage, the addictiveness of the substance and others
REHAB? REHAB for WEED? that's pretty fking ridiculous. Ever seen half baked??

anyways i'm sparking up a bowl, so.... cheers mate
i smoke every day too. & i'm the first to say its not a "good" thing to have such an addiction. that being said i'd rather be addicted to marijuana than take some crazy head meds that no one knows the TRUE long term effects of. i know several other people that were on anti-depressants, etc and found the side effects of those drugs to be much more severe than pot. some pills that are prescribed for anger problems knock you the eff out, making it impossible to take care of a family, work, or whatever you may need to do each day. so all in all, if you think its helping you cope with your own issues & doesn't take you away from important things in life, blazeeee =]
Not normnal. If you are getting angry seems to me you are "self" treaing something that is underlying.
All things in moderation. Too much of ANYTHING will be bad, food, booze, weed or whatever! You can even die from drinking too much water at once.

Listen, I've smoked weed for over 30 years. Zero problems, healthy lungs (I jog) and good heart. In better shape than almost everyone I know thats my age (50). No gut hanging over my belt and good strong back and arms. However, that said, if I sat around and did nothing but smoke weed all day, I'd be a total wreck. (and I know, because that's what I did in my 20s and life sucked then.) I only do it once in a while, a couple hits on some good chronic and then like to go out in nature and garden, paint pictures or jam on guitar with my friends while we're high. And it's always best during the day or evening, not late at night. Otherwise, it's boring (and a waste of weed) just getting high all day and watching TV like a total loser. That's for basement dwellers and street people. If that's what you're doing, you need to get a life and examine yourself and figure out what you want out of life. Life is too short to just be high all the damn time. That's my advice from an oldster to a young dude. Peace brother!
It's actually rather normal to smoke weed every day, but you shouldn't NEED it to stay level. Do more things that you enjoy, besides pot. I say that because I'm sure you feel that you probably don't enjoy many other things aside from that.
Drugs are bad. You should stay off of them for your health's sake.
