| All drugs change your personality. I just had this conversation yesterday with one of my pothead friends. He didn't understand and I'm sure half of you won't either.
The thing is, you get used to using something to change the way you feel (and I will pretend it's always for the better). Well, sooner or later you get used to this feeling that the drug provides. For example, smoking pot will make you feel relaxed. This effect will screw up the way you feel about being relaxed. The next time you should be relaxed and without drugs, there's a good chance you might not be. Why? Because just chilling with your girlfriend and having a soft conversation with her, regardless of how hot she is or how soft that convo is going, it's still not going to feel as good as some really good Bud.
On the extreme, this happens in all instances of hard drugs. Cocaine being the most prevalent and widely studied. Someone who uses coke, even ocassionally, will have different feelings about certain things in their life. Your level of pleasure and enjoyment for normal things decreases. And the logic is quite easy to understand. If one night you are out partying and getting coked up, and the next chilling out with a friend...how is it going to compare? Of course "just" chilling out with your friend is going to suck in comparison to the night before.
Of course, you could just always do drugs with your friends/girl (hahaha! ) but your still on a downward slope. |
