I’ve been asking around as it’s been really weird but does anyone else get productive when high on weed, edibles, THC?

Reason I ask is cause no one seems to believe that I do dishes or research whenever I get high.

I have a difficult time believing that I’m the only one but so far the responses I’ve recieved is:

  • it makes me drowsy.
  • I get trippy visions.
  • it makes me feel good but sleepy.

    I’m glad THC makes you productive!

    For me personally, it just makes me depressed and stupid. Maybe a social lubercant. I call it for me an alternative universe alcohol.

    THC can be used as a stimulant, especially in dopamine-starved ADHDers. You don’t necessarily have ADHD, our reward systems are out of whack due to social media etc.

    Sorta. I have one strain cultivated that works ‘best’ for me. It doesn’t make me sleepy or distort any of my reality. It settles my gastrointestinal system mostly. There’s a lot of medical varieties that do great medicine without being, well, recreational.

    But there’s also a ton of forms of marijuana which will fuck me right up. Like, I used to smoke hash when I was young and in college and that’s definitely not what I am chasing with my manicured and vaporized buds.

    I think people’s mileage varies because the landscape is so incredibly uneven.

      Yes, it’s heavily strain dependant (cannabinoid and terpine content/ratio).

      Edit: and yes people will say indica and sativa aren’t real but that’s because it’s more complex than that.

    Not unless I combine it with caffeine/Adderall. On cannabis alone all that happens is that my mood improves, then I get hungry, sometimes horny, and eventually sleepy. It’s a really mild drug for me, comparable to kratom or a couple of beers in terms of intensity.

    (Also, psychedelic effects like visuals and “trippy” thoughts only happen to casual users who only partake maybe once or twice a week at most.)

    I find it hard to get started doing things, but once I start it’s nothing to stick 'till the chore is done. Mental stuff I can’t do though.
