    Marijuana moderation
    I am going to try this out, smoking during the day in a quantity that won't make me stupid, but rather to make me feel better about being a workaholic. Haha, this is as close to moderation as I can get as I can still focus, but feel good. I know my tolerance, and I go to the gym and other stuff so I'm not too worried about the health risks, I feel like this will be good to experiment anyone out there do this? (marijuana by the way) what were the affects?

    Smoking during the day is not a good idea. Fairly quickly you will find that your tolerance is going to be more and more and you will start smoking more and more pot just to maintain your "laid backness" or whatever you are going to call you being high at work. Definitely not a good idea to smoke at work either.

    Peace, there are loads of people that get high and maintain. I did it for twenty years. Not all day every day, but pretty close. I am clean and sober now, so no more for me, but yes I still know people that smoke weed all the time. The downside of it is that it's illegal ( here anyways), and it's a risky habit. Where do you work as to allow you to get high during business hours?

    There is the matter of hiding the smell, red eyes, and paranoia. Do you often wonder if people can tell that you're high?

    Some people can smoke and work harder than when they are straight, I was one of them. It is a stimulant by category. But some are too spaced by it to be productive.

    Anyway, to answer your question, you may get some people here to admit that they smoke weed, but you may not. I know that excon will give you something to work with.

    I have done it during school then when I got older during working. My tolerance for it built up so much that I would literally be smoking an 1/8 or more everyday. It got to a point where I didn't even feel it's effects anymore. Leave it for the night time you will save so much money and not to mention everything jmjoseph said.

    Sounds like being used for all the wrong reasons, does no one do it just to enjoy it and chill out. Why not just have a few drinks and get about the same result and is legel

    Hello P:

    The Padre is right. I don't think pot will make you feel better about being a workaholic, no matter how much you smoke, or not. That's a job for a professional.

    Besides, there's no such thing as smoking a little so you won't be stupid, but smoking enough to feel good. That just don't happen.

    So, smoke and chill, dude!

    Wow, that sounds like a great idea! I find that if I'm already on task, smoking a little actually helps me focus more but yet is relaxing at the same time... weird haha. All of my best college papers have come after a good smoke sesh (sess?). I'm not sure why people hate on marijuana so much. Yes, the smoke definitely isn't good for you but there is no such proof that it kills brain cells (that idea comes from very ignorant people).
