Being constantly high > Being constantly drunk
I would never be able to go through an entire day drunk. I would feel sloppy, inefficient, and most likely even more sick to my stomach than usual (I have one of those Cobain-like stomach ailments, which ironically marijuana does seem to numb).
But I'm pretty high most of the time, and it's rare that I go a day without smoking at least once. Despite that fact, I'm easily one of the sharpest, and most productive kids I know.
While high, I find it far easier to focus on important things without being distracted, and am able to digest heavier foods without throwing up. It also reduces my social anxiety, and seems to improve the creativity of my wit, when shootin' shit with friends.
Does anyone here also feel as if smoking weed directly stimulates their creativity?
"It is a sad commentary on the state of modern medicine -- and US drug policy -- that we still need 'proof' of something that medicine has known for 5,000 years. [...]
Marijuana is effective at relieving nausea and vomiting, spasticity, appetite loss, certain types of pain, and other debilitating symptoms. And it is extraordinarily safe -- safer than most medicines prescribed every day. If marijuana were a new discovery rather than a well-known substance carrying cultural and political baggage, it would be hailed as a wonder drug."
