Do you think your immature for smoking weed as an adult?

Let's say you had a bad day at work, argument with the wife/gf and you say hey....I'm going to get high....so you go with your friend who has a medical marijuana license or someone who knows someone...whatever....Anyways if you have a full career, paying your bills on time, have excellent credit, and do all the things "grown-ups" do, you still think that's immature. Why or why not?

    I rarely smoke pot to cope with stress. It's part of my weekend cleaning ritual. take a puff (literally 1) sweep floor, do dishes, dust, work on compost, take another puff and tend to the yard. I don't need it to do chores but it makes them so much more tolerable. And weeding the garden is so much fun when I'm a little high.

    I'm not a pot smoker, but use to be one many years back. I think within moderate it doesn't hurt to smoke here and there, sure why not. As far as immature for smoking it, the answer is no. Tho I do believe if smoking enough of it all the time, can cause you not to mature in certain areas, but not immature for smoking it. But as a rule, this wouldn't apply to everyone, just the majority.

    What makes marijuana use immature? Whether you do it for stress relief, fun, or whatever reason, it's fine. Adults get stressed, and even adults need fun.

    Used in the way you descibed it, it is just another way some people unwind.
    People under a lot of stress will go get drunk after work. It is the same thing.
    It is not immature to want to escape reality from time to time.

    ok this is just wrong...not to be a dick to a previous poster but c'mon...25+ is too old for weed.. ? really ?who died and made u god of the world ? the same people who label pot as an illegal drug line up at their doctors for painpills,muscle relaxers,sleep pills, and so on...if were gonna judge i guess we can say caffeine,cigarettes,and alcohol are all bad choices...even though they are all legal...we just have to pick and chose when we do them...sure..if you just sit on your ass and smoke weed al day even though you have wife/husband and kids...or do alcohol/pills/whatever....then u might need help finding something else to relieve stress...but if its just once in a while or maybe when all the adults go upnorth and leave the kids with babysitters...then i say fuck it man...unwind...thats the shit that keeps us sane...its all about moderation no matter whatr your drug is...theres no age limit for anything...just keep proper time and place...sometimes pot is fun..

    me i smoke it cause of my anger problem if it wasnt for weed i probably would have been put jail for just hitting some one on the street. an i think it doesnt matter how old you are if you smoke an it helps you out then do what you do as long as u don't over do it an you stop paying bills to support your habit

    first time I ever got stoned, I was 19, I'll be 24 next month, so 5 years and going strong, I live with roommates and go to college here in town, I pay my bills, have no kids and am getting my head on straight, I smoke daily and I think I'm averagely mature for my age and if smoking is something I do to chill, than that's legit, and neither should you if it doesn't hurt any friends or family members, or your job ya'know? :) Yay, oh btw, 420's only a cpl hours away, woohoo :)

      Hell yeah. I'm a daily smoker also, pay my bills, work full time, and have a life. I look forward to my pot:D It really is a way to chill and escape. And yeah, people don't realize how many famous and successful people smoke.

    Honestly don't do it for stress.

    I'm not saying pot is bad but your shouldn't use it to deal with your problems.

    You have to find a way to deal with stress that doens't make you have to rely on something else (whether it's pot,alcohol,Xanax etc)

    Also.It's spelled you're.

    At the heart of any drug is an "I want it NOW" approach. Hey, to each their own; but yes.

    Many potheads are very flaky - you can depend on them to fail every expectation. Many potheads I knew / know cannot keep a job, are SSI supported, or are payed by the government to be a caretaker for someone else who does have money.

    Recreation is fine but don't miss an appointment with me because you're high on ANY drug. I will NOT understand.

    My answer is, "More than likely."

    Bad day at work? Um... so? Try going on deployment.

    There are other ways to relax from a bad day at work without whining "o poor me I need to get high my day was bad."

    Meditation. Working out. Taking a nap. Shrugging it off. Taking to someone. Reading a book.

    I think id rather smoke a joint than get drunk... i think weed should be legal, as opposed to alcohol. alcohol just makes people act so stupid. look at everyone getting pissed up on a saturday night and its havoc. not saying that you gotta smoke it, but if your getting high, ya most likely just gonna chill indoors. and i think people can smoke it when they are adults. i dont find it immature, but obviously it is if you do it irresponsibly (dont turn up for work, smoke it at innapropriate times, get in debt, etc...)

    Are you picking fights on purpose? Did you really have a bad day or is that just an excuse? Be honest with yourself. If all you really want to do is get high, then say so. No need to make excuses.

    I think you should look for more positive ways to deal with stress. Not that marijuana is that bad. Using anything (alcohol/drugs) to deal with stress, is a sign that there are emotional things in your life that you need to solve. Subconsciously I think you know this and thats the real reason you asked the question.

    I think if you were just using marijuana occasionally for fun thats not really a problem but using it as a coping strategy definitely is.

      That's only because pot/booze doesn't actually cure the cause of the stress....

      what about those people who have glaucoma? or need it for other things, what about that rule with 80+ using weed, are they losers too?

    • wigsplitz

      Yeah, but what's the difference between that and drinking, really? I mean as long as it doesn't consume your life or cause problems then I don't see a difference. Or do you disapprove of moderate drinking too?
