Is it normal to become mute when smokin weed?

Well, I don't smoke anymore, but I used to be a pothead and I loved it at the time. When I realized it was killing my sense of humor and wit, I decided to quit. It made me antisocial and unsure of myself, like nothing I ever had to say was worth saying. I preferred to stay inside my own head. I quit a couple years ago and I still smoke very rarely if I go home to visit my old friends, but I'm glad I quit. I can feel my thought process normalizing again :)

Maybe you should think about cutting back? Don't want to end up that guy that sits alone in his house high all night. That's all fun and games until you realize pot has taken over your life.

ya, i hate smoking with people.

OMGYES. that is exactly how i feel. and i really hate it. cause i love smoking, but i hate being awkward and silent. its like my mind is blank and i cant think of anything good to say. :[

That's the Indica strains doing that. They make you go quite, and feel tired.

Believe it or not, there are strains that make you very chatty and energized.
They are mostly Sativa gentics.

The problem is with street weed, you dont get to choose the type.
But if you can ever choose, go for strains with 'Sativa' genetics.

Dude, that is EXACTLY how i feel when i get high. I had a thought when i was high once that my initials stand for something when i'm high and my initials are SS for Shawn Summers also for when i get high its Silent Stoner. But I feel really relaxed and when I watch tv I just go dead silent and watch tv.

LOL

Hahaha we call mute stoners who wear their hoodies "gnomes," especially when they pull their hood over their heads

I recently quit smoking but use to love it and smoke 5-8 times a day but then that happened to me too. When im alone i enjoy it more i think you started to overthing it or feel awkward i am not sure but thats my problem too!

Oh yes. Naturally, I dislike that feeling. I prefer only to get high with my closest friends... then it does not happen.

Yeah, i have this problem too. Try only smoking small amounts, just enough to notice it - you won't get lethargic and distant, and you'll conserve weed (and $$) in the process.

That sounds exactly like me, I feel weird because everyone's like why aren't you having these enlightening conversations with us and I'm just like I am..with myself! Except not anymore since I got really f-ed up!

just smoke less.

Completely nomral! I'm deaf and I am a silent stoner, so everyone think it's awesome ;D In my persuasion, ingore those who don't think you're fun, what they thinking of you is nothing of your business, unless you care about not losing them.

I'm the same when I've had a few joints of good weed and it's really annoying, all I can do is laugh and watch/listen to what is going on around me. However when I've had 1 joint or not much weed I can speak fine, I actually prefer having a small amount of weed.

Do you know what the word normal even means jackwad?

This used to happen to me too, don't overthink it too much, just do the following, if you are planning on continuing to smoke and want to make it less awkward in social situations:

- Smoke by yourself sometimes, you have to get a feel for how your mind works when its high and understand that it may amplify your current mood at the time, such as, if you are in a social situation and already a bit nervous then when you get high the nervousness may seem more intense.

- Building on the first comment, when you do smoke by yourself, try it in a few different scenarios, such as on a weekend when you wakeup and have time alone to do whatever you choose, hopefully this will lead to finding something fun to do that keeps you active for a while, make sure its a situation where you aren't going to have forced interaction with others, basically when you can just chill and do whatever you want without anyone bothering you.

- If you find you start to get nervous while high and by yourself, try doing some strenuous exercise. Basically, I found this helps me a great deal with overall fitness and can reduce overall level of nervousness. I find actually that being high makes me more inclined to exercise and when I exercise after having smoked recently, I can "burn off the weed", so to speak and thus this increases your overall tolence level. The end goal is that you should be able to smoke a bowl and act completely normally if you want to, I've smoked a bowl in the morning and gone to work and no one notices because I basically act the same as I would normally.

Drugs fuck with your head.
