It’s not quite this, nor that, nor even particularly necessary... but based on how you're acting, you're just drifting through a haze. Either you're nodding off, or you're lost in some daydream, and then you end up hungry and even more exhausted, looking like you've been staring at nothing for hours... I haven't heard of a single local consumer around here ever producing a masterpiece that actually made its way into the annals of American history, let alone the global cultural, artistic, or scientific heritage. It’s a great way to distance yourself from reality, I suppose. Though, most people never really find their way back...

So, what’s the deal with smoking when you aren't even sick? Is this supposed to be some kind of preventative measure? I mean, when it comes to medical use, there are very specific, measured doses of active ingredients for a reason... but with this random stuff floating around, you never really know if you're strong enough to handle it without getting stuck. I know plenty of people who thought they were fine, only to end up completely bogged down. Then they start craving something even stronger. It usually ends with them finding "enlightenment" in the form of dropping out of school, letting their responsibilities slide, and spending every waking hour chasing the next high... though I suppose a few others managed to use it for recreation and actually kept their lives together. Still...

You never really know... you never truly know if you’re strong enough to just stick to the occasional recreational use. If you actually believe you have that kind of willpower, then what's the point of all those flavor enhancers, colors, and scents? Some kind of reality e-beautifier or whatever... can you even stand them?🤷

Yeah, right. They don't.

It’s not just a massive non sequitur; it’s bordering on total nonsense. The OP already made up his mind about Cannabis—he was just curious if it messes with your chakras. I really don't get the urge to try and lecture him on his beliefs, especially since he didn't even ask for it.

Finally, someone gets it! LOOK, I AM NOT SEEKING ANY KIND OF SPIRITUALITY FROM CANNABIS! Every once in a while I smoke just for the hell of it, and honestly, it sparks these great ideas that I absolutely need as an artist...

I'm strictly wondering if it affects chakra function or not, so I can decide whether or not to do something about it... or maybe stop entirely if it's actually bad news.

My opinion is set in stone and I'm well-informed on everything else, but this specific thing was my only question.

Besides, I don't believe in using any kind of substances for spiritual purposes anyway...

When you're high and overstimulated, you feel like you could go anywhere or do anything with anyone.
🙄Then again, you have people who end up getting sick rather than overeating, or those who deal with night tremors instead of just falling asleep.

So, I'm curious too...

Maybe if you're drunk and high at the same time, but definitely not otherwise.

Beyond that, I'd say the material world will probably benefit from it; at least their "tools" will stay well-lubricated thanks to the herb

Cannabis serves those who struggle with an imbalance of matter—those who possess more matter than antimatter and can't find their way back to Nistica unless they try to kill off that excess material existence

Then again, there aren't many of us left who don't rely on things like drugs, glasses, pacemakers, or pills to act as gateways that control and direct our lives 😢

Look, I'm not saying anything about spirituality or out-of-body experiences here. I'm talking purely recreational stuff... you know, light up a pipe, get all hazy, maybe philosophize a bit, hook up with a girl, eat way too much junk food, and then pass out. 😁

What I actually want to know is... does using cannabinol and THC mess with your chakras?

Does recreational cannabis use actually mess with your chakras? Like, how does it even work? Does it just slow down the whole journey toward having an out-of-body experience?

Can we just put this in the Scanner?

Nick's busy. Seriously, why is it such a massive pain to just double-check?

You've got those Dr. Martens sneakers with the steel toe.
