Getting calm without weed

bleedsread5 · 2011-05-04T00:36:01+00:00

Once again r/seddit is giving me that warm fuzzy feeling r/trees give me. I feel you on this one sayn. My thing is keeping my alcohol level in check. If I get too drunk I don't open with the same smoothness but a medium mix of ganj and drink I'm socialably fucked up.

Chamomile tea is known to help, as well as meditation, at least 20-30 minutes.

You believe your best nights are when you get high. Are they really? How can you evaluate that when you're high?

If you don't want your game to totally depend on being high, then you do that by getting some practice at going out and gaming when you're not high.

I particularly recommend going to a bar, drink no alcohol for the entire evening (just ask for an icewater) and observe how people act late in the evening when they're drunk. Try a little gaming when you're sober and they're drunk. See if you get a "contact high" just from their behavior, observe carefully if how they act changes your own behavior. Now imagine being on the other end of that, like when you go out totally wasted and they're just beginning to sip their drinks.

"As much as I love weed, I don't want my game to depend on it. What are some good ways to enhance my awareness and keep in that calm state without weed?"

As soon as you find out, let me know. Until then, roll that shit, light that shit, hit that shit, blow the hit out slow, and pass it to me bro.

I read in some post this guy having a big wall of "inner-game" mantras which he would look at and meditate. I feel like that could work for you. Pick some mantras focusing on being calm and relaxed, and get to meditating! Edit: for me when I smoke, I can't stop talking, often too much, and start over thinking things. Haven't smoked in a while tho so..yea!

I should probably deal with this problem as well. I continue to live up to my moniker here even in set lol

Watch and read as many RSD (Real Social Dynamics) videos and blog posts as you can. There is nothing I have come across that has helped me as much as Tyler Durden's lectures have.

Man I thought I was the only one like this...I still love my chief but I dont want to depend on it...I figure the best way to do it is practice sober...and have a plan?

Get plenty of sleep every day; lack of sleep tweaks you out and a good nights sleep (8-10 hours) works wonders. Additionally, stretching is really helpful in relaxation. Work on stretching daily and then stretching thoroughly before you go out (make it part of your routine, just as you'd get dressed and brush your teeth). A good stretch feels great, you'll feel loose and more relaxed.

the correct answer is ecstasy.

but for real, i think someone mentioned RSD, take a look at the blueprint decoded or some such program

Take Phenibut before going out but you can't mix it with alcohol unless you want to be pissed for 3 days. Basically it was developed by Russians to stop cosmonauts from freaking out/panicking. I used to take it when I was losing my mind over some important work project and it stopped me from giving a fuck. Basically, nothing happens. You don't get any side effects (Normally) and you feel 100% normal, except from the fact that you no longer give a fuck. When I was doing some research I realized that people usually take it before going out to tackle their social anxiety. I never really tried it myself for that particular task because I prefer alcohol but people swear by it.

Look up a supplement called GABA and/or phenibut. They are known to help social anxiety.
