Marijuana Smokers

Why do people who smoke marijuana constantly need to talk about it, share it in chat?
Everything from their joints, to their selfies and paraphenelia etc

Normal healthy people dont do this.
People who smoke cigarettes dont upload a picture of their cigarette everytime they go smoke.
Neither do alcoholics uploading every beer they drink.

I am no medical expert but it seems like these people have low self esteem and are seeking validation or attention.
Literally no one else does this. This is not normal, especially for people with drug addictions.
Is the marijuana killing their brain cells?
 
I feel like there's a commonality though since my experience is that I haven't met a pot smoker in chat who hasn't tried showing off the fact they smokepot. I'm not talking about advocacy either. I'm all for marijuana. I don't care about you having the right to smoke it

But i feel like marijuana is more copium than anything. But I feel the same of pretty much all recreational/illegal drugs.

I get the feeling that you wish it’s not pushed in peoples faces all the time or that you wished people didn’t abused it or both, correct me if I’m wrong.
 
Just the top one. I don't care if they smoke or how much they smoke that's a personal choice. But if it starts becoming a societal problem like the one Gavin Newsom ignores with people openly using heroin and fentanyl, then I see an issue with it.
 
I think it's interesting how people who smoke marijuana often feel the need to share their experiences online. It could be a way for them to seek validation or attention, possibly indicating low self-esteem. I used to smoke marijuana to deal with some health issues, but it didn't really help me in the long run. Then I started buy and use it, and now I feel much better. It’s been a game-changer for me. If you're struggling with weight issues or other health concerns, it might be worth looking into.

I agree it's just a way to bond with people of similar habits, however you do find those who have to mention they're "high af bro" every time they enter chat. Me? I don't smoke it enough.
 
I’ve seen both extreme and the common middle ground with this subject.

I work with some people that you would never suspect it. They used it medically or for pleasure and that’s it. They don’t see it as anyone’s business to know.

I’ve seen some people where it’s a hobby or an integrated part of their social circle. Growing, discovering new strands, exploring new ways to smoke or cook with it. The weed symbol has become a decorative emblem as much as wearing Michael Kors or other symbols people take a liking to. Nothing wrong with it just something they visually like.

Then there’s people like my best friend which for him id say maybe it is a self esteem issue. He NEEDS everyone to know he smokes. And rarely talks about anything else. This is partly because he hasn’t accomplished much else in life and it’s all he has to talk about. I think it causes some embarrassment so instead of him feeling like someone is looking down on him he makes it a point so they think he’s “cool”, “badass”, or whatever he sees it as.

All in all anything and everything comes down to maturity. @Bread. Your statement saying other addicts or drunks don’t do it isn’t entirely true. I’ve met plenty of people with addictions that showcase it as such because of embarrassment. You are correct that it’s not as much and common as marijuana but still there (depends on your exposure to addicts). And I think they don’t broadcast as much because of how highly illegal the others are well the explicit ones.

I’m the type where I go home and enjoy a little to end a hard day but I don’t need anyone to “know”, “acknowledge”, “approve”, or “disapprove”.

I live by the 3 F’s regarding how people think about what I do. If you don’t feed me, f***me, or finance me mind ya business.
 
I have a friand who smokes it, reeks every time and he just blows it every which way, I always lose ma direction......

It can feel like some people go overboard sharing every little thing about their marijuana use. I think it’s just a matter of people feeling excited or proud about something that’s part of their routine. It’s kind of like when people share their food, workout, or even travel pics – they just want to connect with others or maybe even show off a bit.

For me, I think it's all about balance. If you enjoy your stuff, that's cool, but there’s no need to overshare. If you’re looking for a good Toronto Cannabis Shop, they usually have more chill, low-key vibes.
