Whats your take on mixing weed with red pill?

knowledgelover94 · 2018-06-05T15:55:44+00:00

Has the same effect on me as well. I now use it as an introspective tool, only when I've accomplished everything I needed to do for the day, made my plan for the next day and am in bed for the night.

ioncehadsexinapool · 2018-06-05T17:38:46+00:00

I stop giving a fuck whether or not I’m being red pill and just be. Which typically involves smiling a lot and being playful. There’s something ironically not redpill about trying to be redpill in a sense.

Weed made me think. Deep[er] thoughts that made me come to terms with some things, figure out what I wanted, realize some things: truths, lies, etc. It had/has its place, but the important thing is not to rely on it. I never used it to reduce anxiety, to reduce pain, any of that. I smoked because I wanted to get high.

It made me more social at times when I was younger, boosted mood, less inhibitions, all that stuff.

If you turn into an "anxious blue pill fuck" that's you. Others don't get like that - not that I'm knocking you or anyone else though.

In social situations - and if I know I'm good for a drug test - I'll smoke, I have no problem with it. The important thing is that if you use it, make sure you can function on it. Like I said, I smoked because I wanted to get high, nothing more, but it wasn't like I smoked then sat on the couch. I actually produce some of my absolute best work while under its effects, I even became more focused and determined at tasks assigned to me/assigned to myself. If you don't like the feeling, it's better to just not smoke and forget about it. Maybe try it again in the future if you're so inclined, but it's not like you're missing out on some grand thing.

If your routine is disrupted, your goals aren't being met, etc, it's better to kick it. If you still achieve everything with it, it's important to realize that you can achieve more without it. That work I did? I could have done that while sober, I just didn't have the drive to. Now I do, and don't need weed to buckle down at tasks I want to do and accomplish. Do I still smoke sometimes? Yes, but not when I have something I need to accomplish right before.

Peter_B_Long · 2018-06-05T17:45:18+00:00

It depends. If I'm with close friends and we're just chilling and kicking back, I'll smoke a little. I become more "clever" and "witty". Like I just know the perfect things to say to make everyone laugh or the perfect replies when people talk to me. I'm also more "present" and focused in the moment if I am doing something.

This can have the negative effect though. I was at a hotel party this weekend and this girl who was all up on my Peter a few weeks ago was there with her boy. I did my best to act indifferent and aloof ("act" is the key word here). I began to feel sort of awkward and uncomfortable for different reasons. I was chilling next to these guys and they passed me a blunt. I took a hit and I became even more uncomfortable so I just took off and the whole time on the way home I was just thinking about this girl who was there with her boy and realizing that is why she wasn't replying to my texts. Minor oneitis for this one.

My favorite time to smoke weed though is before sex. I seriously become so immersed and present in the moment that it feels like I'm in a romantic porno. My performance is so much better and I last a lot longer. I catch myself grunting and moaning instinctively whereas when I'm sober I'm pretty quiet and just too focused on making sure she's getting fucked good.

To put it bluntly, I only smoke when I'm in a positive environment with people I'm comfortable with. So like once or twice a week @ 2-3 hits per sesh.

JinkiesGangAClue · 2018-06-05T15:45:21+00:00

All for relaxing when the time comes.

It it interrupts the flow of life at all (financial stability, mental stability, social aptitude) throw the shit in the trash and move on.

Chad1738 · 2018-06-05T15:41:29+00:00

Drop it. Had the same effects with me. Not worth ruining a future potential career and turning into a blue pill fuck for getting stoned.

Weed

Weed is the most commonly consumed illegal recreational drug there is. It has gained popular acceptance in society and that alone should tell you enough about it. IMO weed is pretty much like alcohol. Often abused and mostly pointless. Also weed culture is just revolting.

MDMA / Molly / XTC

Capslock for happiness for the next 4 hours. It is like taking a happiness loan you have to pay back the next day + interest. It is a fun experience (how can it not be?) but should be taken with high caution. Avoid pills - go for crystallized MDMA if you really have to. Easy to get addicted to and become a burned out rave loser. Get a quick test kit to check if you are actually taking MDMA and not some kind of meth cocktail. Microdosing with 2 month rest times inbetween are your safest bet.

LSD

The most double edged sword of all. Super low toxicity, you pretty much can't overdose on this (talking about pure LSD, not some Nbome crap - get a quick test kit to test what you are taking!). Very cheap, very potent, low addiction risk (physical addiction that is). Not a party drug - won't make you happy. Highly introspective and unforgiving. Can open up the darkest corners of your soul and make you experience hours of pure terror. On the other side of the medal you'll find the potential for personal growth and character development as well as deep psychological understanding of yourself and the people around you. Very long lasting post trip effect that carries over into your personal life. Most people simply stop using it at some point because they feel like acid gave them everything they were looking for (happened for me).

NewHum · 2018-06-05T18:12:18+00:00

I personally dislike anything that makes me lose control over myself such as drugs or to much alcohol.

I don’t think weed is always bad if you’re responsible but most people aren’t. A huge part of red pill is about self improvement, discipline and most importantly accepting life and it’s hard realities as they are.

Weed just doesn’t work with those things as it’s way to often used as an escape and just generally moves you away from being a responsible,disciplined adult.

zboo1h · 2018-06-05T17:56:49+00:00

First thing to understand is that it doesn't make you more creative or more interesting, it just chemically alters your perspective.

I've had an on-and-off relationship with it, sometimes drying out for months and sometimes smoking daily for months, it comes and it goes. But I NEVER smoke during daylight hours except under extremely rare circumstances, because it absolutely ruins my motivation to do the uncomfortable things I need to do to improve myself, and I've never been able to read/comprehend/retain information from books while high, it just doesn't work, I end up reading the same line over and over trying to understand it but then my mind wanders.

If it really makes you anxious and blue though, just don't touch the shit.

Mostly I enjoy consuming it and playing music, but not unless I've already practiced and rehearsed in a clear-headed state of mind that day. Like I said it doesn't make you more creative, it just changes your perspective, and sometimes that can be tremendously helpful in figuring out musical phrasing, bowstrokes, and so on.

midnightreider · 2018-06-05T16:13:52+00:00

I’ve thought exactly the same thing. I only smoke for special occasions with a small group of my best friends because we have a hell of a time. Otherwise, drop it. You’ll enjoy it much more when you haven’t been smoking regularly, your mind is generally clearer, and it gets out of your system quickly when you do it rarely, so you don’t have to spend money on detox and freaking out about losing out on job prospects.

bannedfromWTFmod · 2018-06-05T16:15:38+00:00

I thought the same but theres two dating app girls I see a time or two a week ( not at the same time) and I smoke with and fuck and it's kind of really fucking hot /erotic and whatnot with one but not the other.

Dunno how else to put it other than depends on you, your frame, how you hold it with girl, how things are between you and them and etc...

I would never smoke before a meetup though, only with them after that has been established.

buddboy · 2018-06-05T16:50:25+00:00

agreed. Long before I found the redpill I started feeling that weed was amplifying my "feminine" qualities. It would make me paranoid, self conscious, lazy and destroy my self control.

Metalgear222 · 2018-06-05T16:57:56+00:00

I reserve weed only for plates I've been with for a long time so that I'm not anxious. It makes the sex hella intense and hot, but it's important that you kick them out after or fall asleep shortly after.

Weed in general inspires blue pill and anxious behavior. I smoke once every few months or so because of this. I've heard of some people that can manage to avoid the anxiety, but largely everyone that matures and pushes it out of their life says the lack of anxiety and increase of money is a huge benefit.

Iwannachokekatie · 2018-06-05T17:40:32+00:00

Don't mix drugs

balalasaurus · 2018-06-05T20:24:12+00:00

It's a pyschostimulant meaning it amplifies your pre-existing state of mind. If you're worried about stuff or feeling unfulfilled, even on a subconscious level, using cannabis will bring those thoughts and feelings to the foreground of your mind.

In your case you're anxious because there are issues your sober self has yet to address or are not where you want to be. Pot brings those issues to light and forces them to be considered. Whether or not you're ready for that is a different thing altogether.

I took a break from pot for a year and a half because it was fucking with my mental. It wasn't until I did a whole lot of reflection and meditation that I was able to use it again. Indica, sativa - I can handle them all. That wasn't the case but I'm glad that it is now.

You need to figure yourself out first and these feelings are a sign of that. Good luck.

F_Dingo · 2018-06-05T22:25:30+00:00

Avoid drugs and narcotics. Your body is your temple. Treat it accordingly.

Psilotheos · 2018-06-06T04:29:05+00:00

Hopefully you read this OP as I've researched the effects of weed heavily. Whether it's redpill, is stupid but that's not my point.

My point is it suppresses the ego and that's why people get more introspective thinking. A suppressed ego only leads to anxiety and that's why I personally regret smoking every time even if I do it multiple times a week... doh

Second point is it increases cortisol which decreases testosterone (in a nutshell) this is why you potentially feel less like superman for upto 3 days after smoking. I don't smoke for 3 days and keep up with my supplements and lifting and by that third day I actually smoke weed to calm down. Whether this is a personal thing I'm unsure but I can guarantee weed will fuck up the balls you need to cold approach.

Don't take this as me telling you not to smoke. I do it most days but from my experience these are some side effects a lot of people don't actually notice as they're not so in tune with their body

robtormar · 2018-06-05T16:35:13+00:00

Sex on weed is amazing tho... But yea it defs.messes.with u

stylesm11 · 2018-06-05T17:25:26+00:00

Most will say drop it, but i have a friend who went to Harvard and uses it to relax his mind when he's off his studies, so i think as a reward tool it's fine

MrAgamemnon · 2018-06-05T16:19:00+00:00

If it works for you fine, but since it doesn't work well for you then don't. It's pretty simple.

smarthmouth123 · 2018-06-05T18:18:30+00:00

pretty new to trp also never smoked weed.

If it feels good and helps you think why not? the important part is that you shouldn't develop an addiction, reliance, habit or however you want to put it. because then you will lack the mental capability to solve your own problems etc. always do it in moderation and be strong enough to tell yourself to stop, if you can't you should not start. be honest with yourself.

Shredderick420 · 2018-06-05T18:34:39+00:00

I've been smoking for years, sometimes regularly, sometimes not so regularly. What I can say is that the set and setting really matters. When I'm with my closest friends, I have a good time and we get to laugh and talk about life and ideas. I don't like smoking alone that much, I get too distracted by my thoughts and it really has a weird impact on productivity. One thing I really dislike is the anxiety that I get from weed, escpecially when coming from a friend's place and need to walk through a dense crowded place. The anxiety is really annoying. I think I've acquired anxiety from my teenage drug use and weed amplifies it.

its_meKnightSwolaire · 2018-06-05T20:16:54+00:00

Same affect.

You can feel the testosterone oozing out of your body.

TimPartendale · 2018-06-05T20:57:20+00:00

I don’t see these two things being mutually exclusive.

I personally avoid weed and other drugs due to my profession and my overall disinterest in substance abuse. With that being said, I do not judge those who partake.

Kevin19Fish · 2018-06-05T21:07:57+00:00

As long as you smoke in moderation should be fine. Just don't become a pot head

nofilmynofucky · 2018-06-06T01:28:35+00:00

Depends on the person and strain.

I don't fuck with indica (shit puts me on my ass) but loves me some sativa, I will often partake whilst practising archery

I guess the golden rule with anything is that it's fine provided it's not negatively impacting on your life

Throwaway-242424 · 2018-06-06T03:49:29+00:00

This sub can be weirdly straight-edge. IMO moderate cannabis use is better for you than equivalent alcohol use.

That said if you don't like it I don't see the issue. Nobody is going to tell you that you should take if even if you don't want to.

erzakai · 2018-06-06T05:25:59+00:00

i just use it for fucking, it always lets me have like 30 second long orgasms

Floaty_McBoatface · 2018-06-06T05:55:06+00:00

Weed is a buffer, like porn, alcohol and videogames.

RPAlternate42 · 2018-06-06T06:50:07+00:00

I just get wittier and have a more aloof attitude.

But mostly it helps me get to sleep.

abudun79 · 2018-06-06T11:11:41+00:00

Weed, just a everything that makes you high, drunk, etc... alters your perception of your environment and changes your reaction to it.

If you consider doing that, it is a good hint you don't like your life. Better change your reality than your perception of reality.

GEAR_IN_THE_REAR · 2018-06-05T17:39:35+00:00

Drugs are for weak people.

Are you weak?

marvwun · 2018-06-05T18:19:53+00:00

I’ve smashed about 8 chicks from tinder by asking them to come smoke with me.

MisterRoid · 2018-06-05T15:58:17+00:00

Using drugs makes girls think you are a cool bad boy.

chazthundergut · 2018-06-05T21:39:15+00:00

Weed will definitely bring you into your feminine energy.

It should be used sparingly. If you're smoking every day (or even every week) it's probably too much.

However, I must admit that my writing goes gangbusters after smoking. I get a jolt of creativity and usually end up scrawling dozens of pages of ideas in my notebook. Most of it is crap of course, but I've definitely gotten some gems.

Once a month for creativity and intense introspection should do the trick. Or none at all.

cenie · 2018-06-06T00:56:43+00:00

Moderation is the key to everything.

A_Wizard1717 · 2018-06-06T12:27:03+00:00

Experiment with it make up your own opinion

circlingldn · 2018-06-05T17:03:26+00:00

Weed is ine of the shittest drugs due to it not being processed leaving random shit in it
