Pot makes me stupid. I sure has heck didn't become intelligent before by smoking pot. I traded being an intellectual for being stoned. And being stoned is not even that fun after the novelty wears off. And it makes me feel CRAZY! It makes me not right in the head! Why would you want to do that to yourself? Don't do it. You don't want to do it, so why do you do it? Why dost thou kick against the pricks?
I did it as an escape from reality and because of the release of dopamine. But the place to which I was escaping was basically Wacky Land where my perception made things seem to make sense that do not really make sense in the real world. Living that way for a long time is very confusing because eventually not much makes sense except for primal urges. This progressively reduced me to an animal-like way of functioning where I mostly acted on primal urges and whatever I thought would feel good at the time.
