Honestly, you don't have to try pot twice to feel the effects. You just have to make sure you actually inhale the smoke or vapor. Newbies often just take a few puffs and let the smoke sit in their mouths for a few seconds without actually breathing it in.If it's good enough weed then you're going to feel the effects if you actually smoke it right. THC hits you almost immediately.
Alcohol made me suicidal the first and only time I've ever been drunk, because I was so upset with myself that I did it in the first place.

It doesn't have that effect on most people.

The solution is to not do drugs, because that's stupid as fuck. Problem solved.

It's not that you don't want to do any drugs. It's that you actually considered killing yourself because you drank alcohol just once. Feeling bad about it is one thing, but becoming suicidal is definitely a sign of some sort of mental problem.

Problem solved.Really, if you're depressed, getting a prescription to balance you out would be preferable. Also, I don't know why you're so vehemently against drugs. While I do understand that there are people out that who have completely ruined their life due to drugs, for some people drugs have allowed their life to get better. Really, the first time I took shrooms, I felt this form of happiness I have never felt before, and sense of peace that I never really felt. With weed, I am able to relax more often. A good amount of the time when sober, I am high strung or depressed, constantly dealing with thoughts about how to live in the absurd. I will say this, drugs have helped me.

I think that's rational, mostly.

It's unhealthy, unnatural. The natural state of mind for all life is survival at all costs. If you think about killing yourself and death as normal way to think, then...well it's pretty obvious that you're mentally unhealthy.

It's kind of off topic and no one here is a doctor/professional.edit// looks like we're going that route anyway.never mind.
so do you not take allergy meds or antacids
whats your stance on mineral water? is that edge enough?
Quote from: Azumarill on December 04, 2014, 06:36:42 PMso do you not take allergy meds or antacidsYeah, nope. Nothing.Quotewhats your stance on mineral water? is that edge enough?Um, I don't really know much about that, actually. Is all that's in it is minerals? Then I don't see any reason to be against it, unless it gets you high or puts otherwise detrimental chemicals into your body.
You didn't explain that your suicidal thoughts were the culmination of multiple issues.
And if you believe that such a quick end to suffering is rational, then why do you endure?
do you come from a family of christian scientists or something? because ive known tons of straight edge people, but ive never met someone who refuses to take tums or benadryl because they dont want to break edge.
Siiiigh.I've been asked this question a mind-numbing number of times.First of all, a lot of people would be affected if I were to kill myself. I don't feel like giving my friends and family years of depression of their own. Secondly, there's still a lot for me to do in this life. I have many projects I'd like to finish, and messages to send. If I'm a slave during the slave trade, and I want to end slavery, I'm not going to succeed by killing myself. No, I'm going to attempt, in whatever ways I am able to, to make change so that future generations can live more comfortably (and peacefully cease to be once everyone hopefully becomes anti-natalist).
