Have a dog who whines to go toilet, or a cat who will physically assault you if you don't feed her on time. Gets me out of bed, but after that is like a dice game rigged against me

Smoke weed. I know it sounds silly, but bud is the only thing to give me a single focus. When i don’t smoke, i will just sit there for hours thinking about what i should do/be doing, while doing literally nothing, but as soon as i have a smoke i can focus on a single thing more, it actually gets me more productive in the things i’m doing too. Plus it helps me massively with my sleeping.

I started smoking at around 16, but before that, i’d literally be up all night struggling to sleep because my mind is so active. I’d struggle at school because i’d easily be distracted and butting into everyones convos lol. I’d struggle doing work i wasn’t interested in or homework, because i’d basically just juggle things in my head at home that i wanted to do, but didn’t.

I’m not saying to smoke weed all day and ruin having a job etc, but even just been able to have a smoke on an evening helps a lot. Just a few burn when i get home, relaxes me and gets me focused on what i want to do, plus it helps give me an appetite. Then i don’t smoke anymore until later in the evening around the time i want to go to sleep.

I do a lot of virtual (gaming) photography, as well as make gaming cinematic videos using cam tools on pc, when i don’t smoke i struggle to even decide what game to play, never mind what video to work on, but not when i have a smoke.

I'm self medicating with weed atm, it's not as beneficial as adderall was in the past. I'm currently trying to get back on adderall Im just way more productive on it.

Afterthought: I think it's because it's genuinely hard to get consistent results from cannabis.

Yup, playing out whole scenarios in my head that are mostly pointless 😂

I procrastinate on things that make me procrastinate
