Hey guys, i came across this dilemma ever since I started smoking weed. I'm a casual smoker, I smoke around 4 times a month, and I've been smoking weed for about 2 years. Every time I come down from my high, my mind feels dull, slow, and sluggish, (not sure how to explain). It's hard to focus on things, or rather, I focus on one particular objective and completely over look everything else. I just don't feel my usual self. It takes me extra time to formulate thoughts, especially when it comes to speech. This after effect lasts for a couple of days. Any info or advise would be appreciated. :)

    Yes, it is very normal to feel that way. Legitimately, I've felt the same way you have. And I don't smoke much nowadays myself.

    Although, I've come to treat it like waking up in the morning. Cause that's the one thing I can count on to keep myself from feeling all "blah" for the rest of my day.
    Just force yourself up and splash some water on your face and maybe even brush your teeth for that added rejuvenation.
    Alternatively, if you usually smoke with other people, you can just count on the face wash.
    But if you're smoking by yourself, you can even go all out and take a shower. Even if your not due for one lol

    Also, if you try it and it doesn't work for you? All's well too. Because you can just take a quick nap and set an alarm to make sure you don't sleep the rest of the day away :)
    And then wake up wash your face and do the whole wakeup thing.

    I hope this helps you in any way possible. Pass it along to whoever may feel the same way. n_n

    Yea just like any drug it's going to have side effects. Try to smoke just as much as you need to to feel high. Don't go overboard on it or you have like a weed "hangover" the next day or 2.

    This is why I stopped smoking it. Have a break for a while (at least a week or 2) or at least cut right down. It sorts you right out.

    I agree with WhiteStallion, you might just be smoking too much...

    From my own personal experience however, yes, that is a pretty normal side-effect of marijuana.
