LOL. So true.

Seriosly, give up the dope. Definately stop riding around high.

If not, I don't look forward to meeting you all cranked up and I will steal your high.

eagle, you are neither a child nor a man. You are growing up. It's not an easy time for most, especially if you have half a brain and think about things. "There are a million paths in life and they all lead nowhere. Choose a path that has a heart".

Not knowing your future, what you will beocme, is rather scary. Try doing more of what you love. Be kind to people, to the world. It makes you feel good. Good luck to you. You are far more than you can possibly imagine and the world is really an oyster. If you dig deep deep deep within, you will find there is only love. Don't worry, be happy.

Drugs are all well and good as a part of an investigation into the nature of reality, but I wouldn't recommend them for recreational purposes. Pain and joy are related. Using drugs to numb yourself makes you exactly that, numb. Not the best way to get high on life.

Also have you ever thought of the fact that you may be depressed? Why don't you talk to a doctor about it? Maybe you can see a psychologist (no they aren't just for the mentally disturbed). Everyone could use a good visit to a shrink. If you are depressed you can try talk therapy, medication, all kinda stuff that can make your life feel better and at least have a decent feel for life instead of feeling so down.

Just moderate yourself on the pot... its good, but dont make your whole life based on it. Just like alcohol... moderation is the key. If you are bored with life I say take up new things, find new hobbies, go places you've never been before. Maybe spend less time on the computer.

I used to be the same way... now I do alot more. I got bored, and fed up with life... so I did something about it. I learned tp play lacrosse, soccer, football, and rugby now. I taught myself to sail, and joined a yacht club and I hope to sail across the South Pacific when I graduate. I created my own freelance webdesign company, and got myself involved with college politics (Student Gov., Alumni stuff, and Inner-Fraternal Council) I have taken up mountain biking and hope to go out to the Moab. I also am planning on skiing and climbing a mountain this spring break.

Don't limit yourself to a set routine... if you wanna feel alive you have to do things differently day to day, give yourself something to reflect back apon. Have fun. Whether it means going on a crazy trip to Mexico with 13 friends at 11PM on a monday night (I did. :) ) or taking a different drive home for once, get outta the rut and try something new.

Find new friends in places you would never look... you'd be surprised what new things you can learn and what new hobbies you can pick up from them.

(Edited for spelling.)

Alright if nothing else I will cut it down to a few times a week. Like today my friends asked me about tonight and I was like NOPE! I'm actually going snowboarding behind a friends house we're building some rails and all that. SOBER too! :) Kind of different to be productive!

See its kind of hard for me to pick up something new. I mean what would I do? I'm not into sports, I don't find them fun at all. Perhaps I'll pick up skateboarding again this summer (which I stopped last summer and just got high instead) but that's about the extent of it. I've been thinking about lifting weights too. I have a bowflex and a set of free weights at home so I'm set. And I play guitar too, albeit not as much these days because of the weed, but I could pick up more on that. But the problem with all that? It's something to do and all, but it's not exactly fun. And it's all kind of non social things. Like if I do all that I'd just be sitting at home which I generally consider boring. I guess I don't really see how I could be high on life. Like some people, usually preppy girls, seem so excited in school and everything. Just so much happiness and energy! I don't really see myself like that. I mean how can a day of school and work be any fun?

I doubt it about depression... it seems lately I've really felt like sh*t a lot, like just having bad days. And we all have bad days, just sometimes it seems they are more and more often for me. But it just seems the situation, like getting down about girls or school or work, and like once I'm in the mindset that the day sucks, it will just be that way. My own fault of thinking I guess you could say. It was interesting yesterday to note that after what should have normally made me REALLY REALLY high, I wasn't even that much. I was in such a sh*tty mood, I think that was honestly the first time smoking pot didn't make me really happy. I just sat there thinking about everything... which may be my problem, too much analysis, etc...

I don't really believe in all the depression chemical imbalance stuff. It seems like these days, everyone is depressed. Like a poll on these forums shows a lot of people with it. I'm not saying there isn't such a thing as clinical depression, but sometimes I think it's misdiagnosed. We all have bad days and we need to deal with them. I don't need some stupid pill to make me feel better.

So does anyone else have anything to add? I really do appreciated most of the responses here. They give me encouragement and all, it really helps.
