Weed Smokers and Covid

[kukuriga]

Seriously, during this pandemic I've been offered weed 3 times. 1. Blunt with like a bunch of people 5 maybe, all taking hits, Medical marijuana in from a vape like thing, and another blunt between 3.

I'm not going to clarify whether I partook in the devil's letttuce, but I wonder, have any of you had the same experience?


Edit: Oh yeah, and I'm talking about strangers offering that, people that I just met in the great outdoors on separate occasions.

Before the pandemic, smoking pot from one joint was normal for me. But in the midst of the pandemic, I thought about quitting smoking altogether, but this is quite problematic for me. The problem was solved when I decided to buy myself a glass dab rig . Only I do not allow anyone to use and except myself. Even if we are in a company of 3-4 people, I try to avoid smoking through my bong. Sometimes it leads to awkward situations, but the pandemic forces me to do it. I hope to go back to the days when we passed one joint.

Yes, my boyfriend once offered me to smoke marijuana, I will say that during the quarantine period it was a real salvation!

[Goldada]

Please stay away from weed. It's gonna kill you faster than the devil himself. Anyone giving you that do not like you at all.

[Efarilino]

Smoked marijuana for the whole quarantine ...)) and in general it takes a lot of time

To those who call cannabis "the devils weed", I do hope you feel the same about alcohol... At least cannabis has far less deleterious effects - the worse that happens when over-indulging is that you go to sleep which beats the heck out of puking & getting a hangover from alcohol

I've been a cannabis smoker since the 1970's with zero ill effects and many years ago got my medical card as soon as Michigan allowed them. Yes I have a valid condition (permanent neurological pain due to nerve damage caused by Shingles) and cannabis certainly reduces the random sharp pain it causes.

2 years ago Michigan fully legalized recreational cannabis use because its effects are no worse than drinking beer or wine - just follow same common sense rules: Don't drive, don't juggle chainsaws, etc. under the influence of any of them.

Now given the COVID situation, would I share a joint or pipe with a stranger or even close friends? HELL NO! Just divvy it up and each person partakes on their own.

I didn't think I could smoke that much marijuana in a month, but as the quarantine practice has shown, my expenditure on it has increased dramatically

No one will do that here in my place so absolutely no, How can be a strangers ask you to partake in Marijuana when this is one of the most illegal Drugs in my country ?

if you ask others that may be a cop or knows cop ? or even concern citizen then surely you will be In Jail instantly .

Sorry to hear that. I take it you are in Asia? I know several countries in that region of the world are exceedingly harsh on it. Considering that it was the US that created the anti-cannabis mania back in the 1930's and pretty much convinced other countries to follow their lead, hopefully with the US now slowly removing laws against it more countries will again follow the example and remove their often draconian punishments that users can face.

From strangers no.. even if some stranger offer me a hit I will not take the joint.. It can be a cop or some guy with hepatitis or something.. but from friends yes there was 3/4 times this year. I trust them, they trust me and if somebody have a little flue he is not included in the circle

The cop angle is interesting. They can lie but since they can't break laws like that it wouldn't be viable to potentially spread covid to try and catch smokers.
I wonder what that means for cops trying to entrap johns in prostitution cases. I've never been a john, or a prostitute but weirdly enough I have been solicited by both (I'm a guy).
You can tell in most cases whether it's cops or not. I don't think they'd bother doing that.

but from friends yes there was 3/4 times this year. I trust them, they trust me and if somebody have a little flue he is not included in the circle

Your friend could be asymptomatic so you're risking death even if they have no symptoms. It's your risk to take, but if you end up barely able to breath you'll certainly regret it. I haven't followed every precaution either and my work environment leaves a lot to be desired.


Edit: My current post number is 1420

I'll offer an update, I did get offered weed a few more times since. One was a pretty woman and.... I'm not saying I accepted.

[devil2man]

It also happened to me that they offered some weed when i was walking around but i politely refused, however even in this risk situation covid i don't think it hurts more than normal cigarettes

In my village its very easy to smoke weed, almost everyone that i know is smoking

[Nwaokelz]

Weed smokers are amongst the most generous people on earth but Ina time like this, sharing a blunt isn't so ideal

[Israelgogo]

During the covid pandemic stay at home period i remember getting addicted to smoking weed alot ,this was possible due joblessness and indoors boredom ,the only way i felt i could get over it was to take a blunt ,more and more ,also been faced with financial crises then.

Today it a thing of the past ,i have not smoked weed for 10months and still counting ,working on it.

I think smoking weed can have many negative consequences. During the Covid pandemic I was offered some but there’s a reason it’s still illegal all over the world. My concerns with using any substance like weed is what’s the cost/ benefit breakdown?
For me, my goals of reaching financial independence and starting a business are a much higher priority than the short term pleasure derived from using it. I understand the argument many people give when they say they don’t see any negative consequences but in my opinion many of them are in a bit of denial. On the other hand, I don’t judge anyone who uses it because it’s everyone’s right to choose their goals and rank their priorities.
