How Much Do You Smoke?

I can stay stoned from when I wake up until I pass out at about 2 grams. Does nobody here smoke out of a bong or what. It isnt 'cool' to say you burn an ounce ever other day, it makes you sound 15.

money and supply aren't an issue for some people! A 5 pack of swishers every day (I get 1.5 to 2 grams per blunt and buy them in bulk), plus picking up the pipe about every 2 hours isn't hard to smoke an ounce every other day. I've cut back to 3 blunts a day now just because I don't like the tobacco that much anymore. Not everyone smokes snappers out of the bong, hell after I broke my last one 8 months ago I haven't wanted to get another one yet.

very nice ngg lad and by the way aint 15 lol

the clue is my thread title it says it all more money than sense..alot more money lol

ive been smoking 10 years i used to smoke ALOT like 20-25 blunts a day (between 2-3 people) i could never do that now.. i smoke probably 1-2 grams a day in bowls and joints to myself.

I've been heavily smoking for 3 years now and started to wonder if it got out of hand and turned into an addiction. I don't mind to acknowledge I use weed to function somehow, after all I don't take the prescribed pills for the same condition and I also get to get high so.... My concern is that I know abusing almost always turns bad, I'm smoking around 3-4 grams (6-8 joints) daily, you could say a quarter pound per month. Is that considered abuse? How much do you smoke?

I have a tolerance that is beyond anyone I have ever met, or even heard someone speak of, and (I'm so nervous saying this on a forum but it is personal use) I'll just say I was getting the finest medicinal, and have had so many strains that I could not tell you. My "Friends" couldn't understand how I was quiet, and stressed out. I explained that I don't get "High" like most people do. They didn't believe me, and begin to pack several bowls, a bong, blunts etc & my eyes do not turn red, I can see just as I see & function as if I did nothing, but I get a GREATLY beneficial note from being able to smoke. Now, for my Chemistry AK-47 will straight knock me out, but I haven't even heard the name in 10 years now. I have major anxiety and depression problems and have been sick for 6 or so years & its the only thing getting me almost fully back on my feet. I have to spend a minimum of $600 per month just to get by. So, yes we are smoking too much, and we need to find the strain that works best for us to slow it down by finding the proper strain (a vaporizer would be very smart, but get one where you can blow bags). PM me on any suggestions or questions. Ive been researching reviews on strains like crazy so that I can figure out what works for me.

I want to start a thread about Particular Strains for someone's own chemistry, and just hear genuine opinions on exactly how it makes you "feel". I genuinely do not care if I were to actually find that the finest strain for my chemistry tastes like Cow Manure (SO many people are concerned with taste over effect which makes no sense...I say to those people "Go find the strain that works best for you, and go get some grape chewing gum if flavor is why you spend your money"). By taste I don't try to treating anxiety/panic attacks, or a strain for insomnia, or staying in a state of well being and being able to function off of a strain during the day by judgement on it's taste. It's how it works for each individual , I think.

I'm not sure on tolerance, but I had to stop smoking (Vaporizing) because of money & just not being able to find any strain I look for. If ever I can get my hands on the appropriate strain I will do so, but that will probably be forever from now... LAST BUT NOT LEAST! Weed IS addictive, mentally. It is considered a non-addictive drug because you wont die from the anxiety withdrawals, and there are no severe physical WD's. So, in all reality Weed IS addictive, just not physically & that's why no one goes to rehab for MJ unless they smoked for 40+ years & just can't kick the habit for being so used to it for so many years. I noticed after getting used to the vaporizer I do not get near as stressed if I have to stop. Smoking it releases the heat that passes THC temp & releases 2 cancer causing agents while releasing tons of other contaminants at higher temps by burning it which may be what causes the "Weed Addiction"feeling (which is a living nightmare for anxiety, normally) while simultaneously reducing Lung tumor growth by 50%, which is odd..

I wish I could afford an ounce a week, im pretty much 1/2 ounce a week smoker, and some days will literally smoke a quarter to myself, just depends on what im doing and how I feel, try this, take two to three days off from smoking each week, you will notice you can actually appreciate your meds, but really the only issue I see with what you are doing is shear cost unless you grow all your own, in which case you are risking smoke inhalation which aint good for you, just take breaks and try to do some kind of cardio to keep your lungs in shape,

Excellent Points! It can be hard, but yeah it really is a good idea to take a break. I've even theorized over the concept of the tar thickness from marijuana on a consistant basis very well could render the lungs from absorbing what they used to. I don't know. It's just a theory

I havent smoked since friday afternoon, and im caughing up some nasty stuff but then again I quit smoking cigs in april, and every once in a while I hack up some super thick tar, usually when i havent smoked ganj in a few days

Definitely see if you could invest in an Arizer Extreme Q Vaporizer, and you will never cough stuff up again. It took a while for me to get used to not absorbing the carcinogens, and my eyes dropping, but I have to admire it for only delivering what you need, and it makes for an extra clean high that for me has always been functional since I stopped smoking and started Vaporizing.

I managed to lower it to an eight a week from eight a day!. Lost my growing spot so it's gonna be dry times from now on... FML!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't simply afford to be high all day long anymore and was thinking of totally quit smoking, but at the same time I feel like there's no going back. I'm addicted and worried

Quitting is tough but really only lasts a few days of anxiety. I've always had that fear & I go through it, but after just a couple of days I have no desire to spend money unless I just cant sleep. If you were able to slow down that much you're doing great! Only 10% of what you were smoking
I say just stay where you are for a bit, and attempt to dose down when you are comfortable. I don't recommend this to anyone, but, I am. I'm no Doctor but I have researched medical for 16 years & would be a Dr. by now if it werent for a Benzodiazapine addiction, and so what Im about to suggest should get you off of it stress free, but read the details.....
If you promise to be responsible go to an emergency care, and tell them your anxiety & panic attacks. Tell them xanax has worked in the past & it was the only thing & a VERY low dose that you cannot remember. He will give you 30. Get used to it for 1-2 full days and then drop the weed until that bottle is empty. It's HARD to OD on xanax but you can. So, if you want dosage advice please ask me so we dont dose you up to high & I'll walk you out of this. Now, if you think about going to a Dr. to get a regular refill of xanax it will be the worst decision you have ever made. My own Phsyc told me to stop taking xanax because weed is so much safer. The thing with xanax, valium, ativan (benzodiazapines) is IF you reach the 4-6 month mark you will aquire a physical addiction that I have been through, and Im going through it again. Everyone I know that has done heroin or meth got off of them at the same time & said it was a "walk in the park compared to Benzo withdrawals", and I will tell you my heart isnt beating properly right now, and I have almost died in the ER 2 times just trying to dose down.
Please, only use it for what it is prescribed for, do not over prescribe or steer from the Doc unless he gives you like 0.25's which is an 8th of a maximum strength.

The reason we freak out when weed runs out is because we have covered up stress & problems for so many years that they all come back, and we are scared of what we were hiding from. It takes quitting to realize you actually will have far more stress tolerance once you stop (which seems like a lie, but its true). You just may have the feeling to smoke every now and then.

Don't take xanax more than a month. Don't hop to emergency clinics & rack up on them if you want to discipline youself and go through it. You shouldnt feel nausea, loss of appetite or anything, but so I dont get in trouble and my name isnt on a piece of paper say "M.D." I cannot say any of this is a fact. Everytime I have gone in there honestly & (you can tell when Im extremely hoplessly sincere), and they will see the weed in your system but never care about that being in your system & I would tell them "I've been smoking Marijuana for years & I'm ready to get my life back & I quit a few days ago & if you cant even relieve enough stress to ease internal organ tension off of your stomach" to eat then he wil help you, because it obviously wont be an upper causing the weight loss. This message may be making you more afraid, but I promise a Dr. will take care of you, but please PM me what dosage he gives you because I would hate myself forever if you go addicted to it. Once addicted to a benzo you have killed your GABA receptors, and that means your heart cannot beat without it & you would have to suplement with Glutamine to strengthen your heart & go through years worth of a dose down schedule that will cause withdrawals to make you unable to work at all. If youre concerned about xanax addiction ask the Doc and they will even more understand that you do not in fact know enough about it and are not hoping from place to place & racking up on them, and thats more guranteed. Tell them you do not want to go to a Phsycologist because the anxiety from weed is enough & you would never want a Phsyc possibly over medicating you and getting you physically addicted.

Again, up to 4 months on a benzo and there is no coming back for a very long time. I would never cross 2 weeks on a weed WD. That should be a week more than you need, and you should feel 100%. If you are scared of the WD real bad, find a buddy that has a vaporizer & vaporize for a week and the carcinogens that cause that hard mental weed addiction feeling will go away, and you may be able to walk away from it. If not you may want to try the Doc like I mentioned.

EVERYTHING I MENTIONED IS FICTIONAL & I AM NOT A REGISTERED M.D. TO GIVE 100% PROPER MEDICAL ADVICE IN ANY LEGAL MANNER. PLEASE FOLOW THE Dr's GUIDLINES & ASK ALL QUESTIONS YOU CAN THINK OF THAT YOU FEEL ARE IMPORTANT. iF YOU DO GO THIS ROUTE PLEASE PM ME BECAUSE i'D REALLY LIKE TO KNOW HOW YOU ARE HANDLING THINGS & WHAT YOUR DECISION IS. I DONT REST VERY WELL IF I THINK I MAY HAVE JUST SWAPPED SOMEONE TO ANOTHER 91,000 TIMES MORE INTENSE ADDICTION. PLEASE DONT LET ME RUIN YOUR LIFE AS I HAVE MINE & TAKE IT AS I SAID, RESPONSIBLY, LISTEN TO THE DOCTOR OVER ME, AND YOURE FREE!

For real, P.M. me & I'll walk with you guys through this with hopefully 0 anxiety
Peace! (You can still say "Peace!" even when your done smoking. You don't have to be stoner to use the term
I know, I type a lot. I am a mix between autistic and normal yet act normal, and look normal but I type novels for posts like an uncontrollable urge to explain something from all angles, and I know its annoying. I do apologize to everyone for that.

There's as well much? We figure as lengthy when you manage your business... indulge!

when i was in highschool when i was smoking like on it, i smoked about 10 grams a day sometimes even more but ill say about 10g now i smoke a lil bit cuz i dont got money hahaha gigity!

I smoke till I'm high. Then I put the bowl away. I noticed though that I can't draw shit when I'm stoned. I draw pretty well when I'm not.

Before I had my card I smoked a lot more than I do now lol. I used to smoke anywhere from an eighth to a half o a day before my card, now I would put myself at under a gram a day.
I would have to say a lot of it is likely not smoking as socially as I used to.

My mother has smoked weed since she was 16 (She is now 37) and she has no health problems, and is healthy as a horse. She is a heavy smoker too, she spends at least 100$ a week on weed. (For 21 years straight) She has no cancer, no mental problems, no memory problems, no lung problems, no trouble breathing, dopiness, etc. etc.

On-top of that she smokes Cigarettes also. If weed was so bad don't you think she would be hacking up a lung constantly or even worse bed ridden coughing up a lung constantly?

Myself personally I have been smoking weed for 5 years. (I got medical when it first became legal in my state) I function normally, I don't have trouble breathing, my lungs are perfectly fine, and I still have perfect memory. But usually I smoke probably O - an 1 and a half O a week.

i dont know if its the weed or what,but when i smoke the next morning i cough up shit. before i smoked obviously i never had this problem i wonder why

I have the same problem, but ive cut down recently to about a half 1/8th every two days. Somehow every morning i cough up the stickiest grey blobs. ( my guess the resin thats stuck in my lungs and throat??). I stopped smoking blunts for like 6 monthes now and i cant really tell a difference. The 60 year old man smokers cough is a big turnoff, especially when your only a 20 year old college kid.. girls dont dig it haha

A gram a day keeps the doctor away!

At least for now - heheh
