How long did you last?

[mojo]

hey memory, haven't seen ya in a while

It's said that after 5 years of toking, the memory loss is pretty much permanent. I can provide first-hand proof of that.

heh, i quit smoking pot a few years ago. thats how i felt every time i smoked it, so i figured if it wasn't making my life any better, i might as well quit.

i can provide first hand proof that's what you're saying is bullshit.

Fair enough, I guess I was too black and white with that comment. I was listening to this discussion on the radio awhile back that stated that after roughly 5 years of habitual toking the memory loss does not completely, if at all, heal on its own. Naturally, every mind reacts differently. Is that worded specifically enough to avoid further misunderstanding?

As for me, I miss my memory.

My Memory has been fucked before I did Drugs so I'm not missing anything.

:somatic:

i stopped smoking weed regularly about two years ago. i went from having zero short term memory back to my old style of literally remembering everything. that said, when i get faded, the next couple days are a blur.

I've been craving weed a lot these days :/

If there's one thing I've learned in my 10 years of marijuana use; it's that marijuana isn't for everybody.

Even if marijuana works for you, the key is moderation. It's an incredibly potent substance that yields a myriad of benefits when used cautiously.

i.e. enhanced creativity, stress relief, painkiller, social lubricant.

But I've found that over indulgence with this drug can potentially create some unsavoury problems for a user. (Myself included, which is why I've decreased my use exponentially from where I was at only a year or two ago.)

i.e. lung illness, paranoia, lethargy, short term memory loss, depression, anxiety.

If one is to use marijuana, I'd advise them to use as little as possible. You get way higher that way anyways...haha ;)

now I must go hit the bong.

strange thing about that. i had quit smoking weed for just under a year in '06 and had a hard time recovering from short term memory loss...but it got better, way better! recently i've been smoking quite a bit again even going ahead and investing in a bong. and i could honestly say that i still retain really good short term memory. not while i'm high tho... but when i'm living my daily life, school, work-- i'm all aces. heh.

[hardstylin]

because of sports/fighting i stop smoking for weeks-months at a time.

and i find the first 2-3weeks a gong show. i get really anxious or something, might be just cause im bored but i really crave getting stoned and just laying around. But after those 2-3 weeks im good. Kinda forget what being high feels like i quess.

no dope for me till may :( cant wait to get baked!!!

[Courtney]

ohh no hey i guess i made myself look like a huge stoner but i actually only smoke it like once evry 2 weeks and its been like that for a year but i was just reminising to the days when i was stoned 10 times a day and i was worry free

No memory loss problems here. Smoking weed about 4 years.

Sorry, what were we talking about?
