Is it normal to smoke weed alone?

Okay guys. I like to toke alone, maybe once or twice a week, and I do with other people a little less often. Some people think its chill but others tell me I'm a loser. It is really abnormal to just smoke a bowl and watch some TV or listen to music? Sometimes I get really shitty highs though. Mostly I just get really relaxed.

    I don't get why people give people who smoke weed by themselves so much shit . In my opinion it doesn't matter . My best highs are when I'm by myself . I find it relaxing to smoke a joint and lay back and watch tv . No one around no worries just being high lol

    For me, it cures the depression/lack of motivation that I find in myself. 90% of the time I smoke, I smoke alone. It's not a party drug for me but you can't chief alone all the time. It really depends on what you get from it or what you want to get from it. I honestly think it helps me look at all my problems from different views, allowing me to deal with them more appropriately.

      Not just you Tyler, those experiences are not only normal but very common. What's very sad and disappointing is a ridiculous amount of ignorant prohibitionists who know NOTHING about cannabis would never, EVER think or admit that cannabis has excellent introspective and self-examination properties.

      No amount of evidence will ever get through the locked tight steel doors to their minds, which are closed so tight it's a miracle they get any blood flowing up there. Both scientific and personal testimonies are totally lost on them and they think it's all nothing but "typical stoner lies".

      They refuse to believe that it can and DOES actually enhance many aspects of a person's life, and can and DOES do something very positive to an individual's views on not only themselves but many facets of life in general. I consider it a real shame that most of them will never experience this first hand, because they sure as hell need to examine their inner-selves more.

      It's sickening that so many prohibitionists latch on to the very inaccurate stereotype that the majority of cannabis users are immature, unmotivated, lazy high school kids with bad grades. People who are actually EDUCATED about cannabis know those stereotypes make up only a tiny fraction of users, almost all of whom were very immature in the first place.

      TO THE PROHIBITIONISTS - Open your fucking eyes and mind for once. Believe it or not, you're allowed to think for yourselves. Believe it or not, you're allowed to do your OWN research that isn't controlled and confined to Above the Influence, DARE, Free Vibe, your parents, or your church or strictly religious family.

      Trust me; people who actually know what cannabis does to a person's thinking (SCIENTISTS and DOCTORS and PROFESSORS included) know A LOT more than any of the programs/people I mentioned above, including you. When you're almost entirely ignorant about something and know nothing but the bullshit you're told by the people you so blindly and willingly listen to, then you really have no place to get on a soapbox and shout your very misguided opinions.

    when some of my classmates found out that i used to smoke alone they made fun of me a lot, one phase they went through was constantly saying 'shit happens' to me, as if i smoked because i was depressed.

    but i think its because they dont know anything about weed or any drug for that matter. they only do it with their friends because its like theyre only doing it to show off...weed doesnt have to be smoked when around other people, its something that is relaxing and can make you think. being high alone and being high with people both have very positive and different benefits.

    anyways after a while, when i becamse more 'popular', those same people who made fun of me started smoking alone too, so i knew they used to make fun because they thought it was uncool at the time, meaning they didnt put any real thought into it. they were just going along with what their friends were saying about me. those people who call youa loser are ignorant and dont know shit about weed

    Dude when your a stoner you just like getting stoned, thats the point... If people are ripping on you for it just dont tell them... But coming from experience (6 years everyday, alone or not, not anymore!) you should stop. It makes you broke and ruins your social life.

    100% normal. Anyone who compares smoking alone to drinking alone is silly. In fact I prefer it, but I still really enjoy smoking with other people too.

    Wow! You are definately not a loser my friend, as I too enjoy smoking a bowl by myself once in a while. I do agree with everything that tommy81 said as well, people just can't put enough brain power to output a good reason for things anymore.
