Not only do I need to drink coffee to be happy, I need to drink coffee jsut to take a dump every morning! If I don't have 40-60 oz a day of strong coffee I'm in extreme pain! I'm not trying to fool myself about it, it's a dependence, an addiction. The caffeine in coffee has been shown to enhance cognitive and physical function and performance. What does THC do? It interferes with your neuro receptors ability to align properly- that's why I put my short sleeve full on up to my waist one time and walked half a mile to the pier only to find I'd put it on backwards and that's why a friend of mine put a track top on 2/3rds of the way up his brand new board. It doesn't make you smarter it makes the ordinary seem more extraordinaryt b/c your thinking less clearly.
If you read what I've posted you'd see that I smoked pot almost every day, all day for a solid 20 years- and very few people would have ever guessed b/c I didn't fit any of the stereotypes except surfboard ownership. New pot smoking acquaintances would sometiems suspect I was a cop because I was so "preppy" or straight looking and cops never asked me if I had drugs in the car even when I did.
From my personal experience when I ran out of pot I was in a pissy mood until I got some and I don't know too many regular or daily smokers who would disagree with that. A doctor told me once that I probobly had a higher concentration of THC in my blood than Oxygen, you can't think that doesn't have some effect on you. I would smoke all day and shirk many a responsibility. My lungs were definately polluted, and anything I enjoyed doing I thought I enjoyed more (John Stewart voice) ON WEED!
I definately feel now that I wasted a preposterous amount of money and time that could have been spent on surf gear and trips, missed many sessions, underachieved at work and school, cheated my family out of the best possible me, harmed my surfing performance, and on and on. I can't really point to any positives that I am missing out on now. I still laugh and have a good time, everything is better, nothing is worse.
I'm not judging anyone who does it (except for comedy's sake) but give my experience some thought and ask yourselves honestly: what does it do for you? Do you need it to have a good time and if not than why do you do it? What would be bad if you left it behind and what would be better?

dear andrew from amsterdam,what a surprise likes marijuana,how original,that and your pride in such a trendy cool place has the flag as your symbol,my reply is that God is the same place that He always was,everywhere always and forever,seek and ye shall find.
Well to be honest, THC does a lot for me, I use it as a bronchodilator, since I have severe asthma, and it doesnt effect me in the ways you pointed out such as underachieving on any school or work, its a free plant that grows itself, so i spend no money or time, and if you were to watch me surf, you would realize my performance isnt harmed at all. but its ok, your welcome to your own opinionNot only do I need to drink coffee to be happy, I need to drink coffee jsut to take a dump every morning!

I prefer shooting mescaline.. its the only way to fly.
Say this out loud: I have a severe respiratory condition but I self-medicate it by inhaling the unfiltered smoke of a plant that contains known carcinogens.

What if he only gets high from edibles? What about vaporizing?
I respect this man. It just seems you've came to conclusion that you would have been better off without it. But that's you. Everyone is different. I don't have to spend much money at all for it. I never missed any sessions because of it. School and work was never affected by it. It seems you let it get the best of you. In my short time of smoking/vaporizing, I have taken long breaks. I don't need it to have a good time... I do it because I enjoy being high.Not only do I need to drink coffee to be happy, I need to drink coffee jsut to take a dump every morning!
