pot and nihilism

[ajh151h]

I think that my pot experience can be summed up in simple steps:
1. I started smoking weed
2. the drug distorted my thoughts and made me want to smoke more
3. the drug distorted my thoughts so much that my thoughts stopped making any sense altogether, causing me to become a nihilist
4. My nihilism caused me to realize distorted thoughts led me to smoke so much weed
5. After smoking the drug I eventually realized, subconsciously, that nihilism is untruthful, because my compassion for life overpowers it.
6. I reverted back to normalcy.

There's nothing I can possibly tell you to get you over nihilism. All I can say is don't smoke weed, and work through your nihilism.

Hi and welcome if you have not posted before.

It can affect us in very different ways, which is not surprising as it is such a trippy drug, it’s a bit like when people take a trip (acid/LSD) some people have good ones and some people have bad ones, a lot of it probably depends on the person to begin with and maybe where they are at the time, some people have more of a potential for psychoactive drugs to cause them problems than others . Obviously the drug is a more subtle drug than acid, but it can still change your perception of reality and gradually with continued use over a long period of time, end up having a significant effect in that respect. So yeah it can affect different people in very different ways and we can all have our owns reasons for giving up. Anyway congratulations on quitting, at least your hearing and wallet will benefit if nothing else.

Take care
