Title: how to cope with not having any weed to smoke?
Post by: PsilocybinTendencies on August 24, 2012, 02:17 am
I haven't allowed myself to run out of weed for a very, very long time.

But my most recent order seems to be taking longer than it oughta, and I'm really starting to hate this.

I'm fucking shit up at work. I'm irritable and moody. Today I yelled at my friend a little bit. I can't go to my friends because I'm starting to feel like a mooch. I'm chain smoking. Crushed my last carton into oblivion. This fucking blows.

I know weeds not supposed to be physically addictive... but damn... if this is psychological withdrawal I never wanna feel physical withdrawals, they must be PURE TORTURE!

Any tips on how to deal with this situation? All my pieces are so clean from scraping that I can practically see through the glass ones. I am not a happy boy when I'm sober.

Was gunna say scrape.  Well think real hard. I always stash nugs and forget about them.  Maybe you have too.  Otherwise good luck sleeping.  :\

Keep your self busy and think of it as positive thing.  Like you're taking a tolerance break. 

Honestly I have gone through such worse withdrawals from other drugs that I can go out with weed for weeks to months even after smoking for fucking years.

I have the same problem sometimes.  Is it bad to smoke weed this much?

You sir, have a problem. Both with your need to smoke and your current lack of it. I find reading calms my brain. Find a good book, and read it. :)

I know how you feel. I stopped smoking for a while and I wanted to punch shit just because I had so much energy. I suggest a 10 minute meditation session, work out, or whatever hobby you may have (video games, Netflix, etc). The main problem is that you're bored and you have a habit (I wouldn't call it an addiction). So replace it with another habit. If you really want to you could drink alcohol, or pop some diphenhydramine to get a little sleepy.

Or I could smoke you out.  8)

Brilliant. Most likely my problems stem deeper than just my need to smoke. I thinking smoking just helps me cope.

But I do have a whole kindle to work my way through.

In an attempt to take b0lix's advice to stay busy I just tinkered with playing a little bit of guitar. I'm amazed at how shitty I got by not practicing for a few months. Was toying with an easy song -- sons and daughters by the decemberists (I've been on a decemberists kick lately).

Got to playing it to where it sounded pretty good, but I've never been able to sing and play simultaneously <_< try as hard as I might. I just lose rhythm when I try to put words into it.

You guys are awesome. I love this community but its a goddamn shame that it was ever even necessary for us to come together like this to begin with.

Absurd, offer accepted... oh fuck... might be some logistical issues to deal with there... lol.

Weed is easy to find on the streets. Everyone smokes it. It's probably the only drug I don't need to get from this place. Unfortunately for me I hate the stuff.

Social graces are not my strong suit. I'm pretty sure I have a touch of the asperger's.

I hated damn near every minute of trying to find weed through conventional means. I'm so glad it's over.

Besides I'm broke for a while anyway unless I can find somebody who wants to buy a couple of my trips. But like I said... social graces...

Just prraying to god SR doesn't have to end up stepping in on this one or Ill end up getting paid and placing another order before this one concludes.

If you really wanna get high, I would go to a smoke shop and buy some nasty ass spice. That's how I got into drugs. I was bored after work one day and decided I should get high.

I smoked way too much and had an out of body experience though... which led to psychedelics.

OOB experiences are real?!?! No way! I thought they were just people talking out their ass.

I actually did spice for like a month, but a loved one had a real bad experience with it, and I'm scared to death of synthetic cannabinoids now.

I can usually hold off for awhile if for some reason I'm out of weed but if I'm out of weed I either buy more from a local dealer (I don't like doing this at all),just work over time and/or keep myself busy with my girl,or get high by other means.Ive been know to crack a few cans of nitrous to hold me over when I'm out of weed haha even pop some DXM pills or chug some syrup just to relax and get high to make the wait suck a little less.I try not to over do it though.I only do it one day to keep me from going nuts and it usually helps and keeps me from being so pissy until I get weed.I'm in the same situation I have a grow going but its not ready yet.I think I should have ordered when I was down to an 8th and used a little more self control because I ended up blowing all but 2 bowls of that 8th in one session  :-\

I was like OP back in my younger days. Just don't smoke so much weed, and take up a few hobbies. It will keep situations like this from arising, and when you do smoke it will be so much better.

Normally the couple of friends I have just get me high. But there seems to be a drought here atm.

Every time there's a presidential election coming up there just so happens to be tons of busts, and shit miraculously dries up.

If your computer has a decent ATI video card, mine bitcoins and send them to a bitcoin wallet you don't use a lot.

When you're out, check out that wallet to have extra money to get another order :P

You got any other drugs? I know weed is like the fucking salt of drugs: goes good with everything. But sometimes I enjoy other drugs and don't tell Mary about it. What she doesn't know what come back to haunt you.

Hope you get your supplies soon.

Cheers.

I would recommend Meditating, to cope with the feeling/shit you normally use weed to deal with. You can also meditate while smoking weed, which is nothing short of pure bliss.

I was becoming an intolerable asshole every time I had to go without, to the point it bothered me.

Also see it as a tolerance break (holy shit, you will GET HIGH after a break), and a chance to do some other shit/tasks you normally wouldn't touch.

These breaks between mailings can be useful. Now I have like 10 variety's of weed, so it won't be my problem for a while..

SR=Heaven for me  8)

My god, if I knew things would be this good I would have gone easy on all those shitty cheap ass street drugs I sucked up for years.

But my most recent order seems to be taking longer than it oughta, and I'm really starting to hate this.

I'm fucking shit up at work. I'm irritable and moody. Today I yelled at my friend a little bit. I can't go to my friends because I'm starting to feel like a mooch. I'm chain smoking. Crushed my last carton into oblivion. This fucking blows.

I know weeds not supposed to be physically addictive... but damn... if this is psychological withdrawal I never wanna feel physical withdrawals, they must be PURE TORTURE!

Any tips on how to deal with this situation? All my pieces are so clean from scraping that I can practically see through the glass ones. I am not a happy boy when I'm sober.

i have used marijuana for more years than most SR members have been alive, due to my location the only weed i can score is commercial schwag, SR and various events allow me to get killer nugz from time to time, i am currently boycotting the compress pot so i have been smokeless for several days now. Marijuana helps keep my head straight and addresses back and joint pains. What i have discovered is that 5-htp helps me through times of no weed. Everyone's chemistry is different but 5-htp helps me with the cravings, agitation, and bitchiness that having no weed does to me. My back is hurting like hell, but oh well. i will have some dank nugs by the end of next week. So to the OP, do a little research on 5-htp and give it a try if so inclined. And you are correct that physical withdrawals from other drugs can be very nasty. The worst for me was benzo withdrawals, damn, lasted for literally 3 months, fuck xanax,valium,etc. imo opiate withdrawal was much easier than stopping the benzos. Now i just smoke pot, mdma every month or two, and the occasional DMT experience (very seldom, maybe 4 times a year) or shroom trip.

genghar pm me the name of the vendor, I wonder if it's the same guy.

Snoopish I got some some 25i and some Lucy, but I don't really like to trip without weed. And I think I've been coming to the conclusion that Lucy has taught me everything I can learn from her without other people to trip with (which is something I'm still working on). I might do some 25i today, but I'm still debating on it. I really should take a break from tripping for a while.

Although a couple people did smoke a nice fat blunt with me last night :)

-Take slow deep breaths, the resin in your lungs should activate some, cough if you have to.
-Relax and do what you do when normally high
-Remember how much higher you will get after a long time of being sober

In the meantime, excel / accomplish things you're good at while sober -- things you may be unmotivated to do while stoned.  (The "cleaning out my closet'  part of life's cycle)

Obstacles into opportunities

Muzzacc and the news or whatever occupies my mind. I am not hooked on anything in particular. I just like to party and get high but it's not the only thing in life. I am in complete control of my mind. Even pain don't hurt me. I can smoke crack and shoot meth for two months straight and never even think about it for years later. The mind is amazing. The one true gift we have is the ability to control our thoughts which in turn controls how we feel. I get high off music or a good dramatic movie or comedy, action, sci-fi, a flurry of arts. Man I don't need drugs I just enjoy them when I can afford them after the bills and child support are paid.

forget it, with me I've been smoking weed since i was about 12.. right around the time the Ritalin my parents were feeding me on the daily was turning into speed and giving me an adverse affect .. so now that these little pills are getting me in more trouble at school then b4 when i used to skip taking them at lunch i had to find a solution.... in came weed and since then i been hooked. I moved out when i was 17 and from that day forward till now i have smoked about a 3.5 daily, (with a few exceptions of course... some jail time being most of the exceptions)

as for running out... forget it.. I too get totally cranky, irritable, and snappy.. its a real ugly site...

I always make sure I have my medicine.... without a doubt 100%. there is no running out with me. i do what I gotta do to get "high"

anyways.. if money is tight just try fronting like a 3.5 from ur local dealer.. lets say he charges you 35..

 make 5...... 0.7 sacs,,,,, sell 4 of them  for 10 bucks each... make 5 bucks and even have a few pinners for yourself to smoke...

hope this helps you out buddy. I'd hate to be out of weed!

I've managed to work something out to get replacement weed ordered until this current transaction gets resolved. Shouldn't be long now!

Thanks for all the input on the matter guys!

Someday maybe I'll move to Cali and have badass weed hookups irl like you guys do too!

I have managed to smoke a couple times since this was posted. Once my weed finally gets here I'm going to feel obliged to owe my friends like ten buzzes.

People probably wont agree with me but heres my 2 cents. I dont think that weed should be a necessity. I use it to even me out after a hard day at school on vyvanse. If its medical they should smoke all they want but I personally have felt like weed has been taking over my life, I smoke so much I get couch lock. The only half productive thing I do high isplay guitar.

Dont bash on me though if smoking all the time works for your situation, enjoy it.

Well as for me, I have taken long breaks from smoking before. Mostly just because. Usually a few months, half a year or more before I start again (but I always start again ;p ).

It sucks a lot at first because you have a habit/routine that needs to be replaced. Fortunately, I tinker with a lot of things to keep me busy, so that helps fill the void / replace the routine quite a lot. But still, I get grouchy and irritable. The sleepless nights are the worst because they just add to the irritability and the need to fix that by getting stoned again.

But once that initial couple of weeks have passed, I usually do okay. By the time a month has gone by, I don't miss it.

I haven't taken more than three weeks off in the last year, and that wasn't by choice. I can't find shit in this town, or when I can, it is shit. I just found SR. I haven't had the ability to place any orders yet for bud, but I'm okay on that for the moment.

I'm a little concerned by this as I gave him a small loan(only 1.5 btc).  I'm not rich though so every coin helps.  I wonder if he is still on sr under his username pipedreamz?  He didn't have to pay me back until the 17th of this month though so I'll post back here to update people I guess.  Anyone know if he posted an explanation of any kind?

In the end necessity makes dogs of us all I suppose, so although I don't condone his actions if he did leave, I definitely understand them.

Movies, tv shows and videogames for me usually

I'm in the same situation, ran out yesterday & my usual vendor appears to have gone quiet for a change (unusual for him, usually he has it packed up and sent within a few hours of putting the order through :(

I have awful stomach pains which were caused by medication for something else, smoking weed makes it easier to handle.

Plus i have a very stressful life right now, there is nothing I enjoy more then to come home and spark up & relax

None of my friends smoke unfortunately & only local dealer i know only has shitty weed (i'd rather wait and be moody/irritable for a day or two then waste money on crap)
