I'd probably have thought life to be hopelessly bad and nihilistic, without any redemption, without hope, without the merciful effects of marijuana. At least it shows mercy, quite unlike many other of the psychiatrist's pharmacokinetic concoctions. Here was something that lifted me up from an existentialist hell, and showed me something I had been too stupid to understand before...
That was a long time ago, now I no longer believe, and so am no longer saved when I smoke. That's the real issue that no drug seems to solve, once you go numb you can't go back. And so I don't feel it anymore, I don't feel the spirituality of it anymore, nor hope of redeeming my soul and being. Now each day it feels I'm rotting, ravaged by some sort of CFS like illness. Perhaps it's just my punishment for not believing anymore?
