lots of people posting about the connection between weed and creativity over here. at the risk of sounding pretentious (oh no) i will briefly lay out my conclusion on this that i am 100% confident on.
ive been heavily immersed in creative circles consisting of people from all disciplines for about ten years. all types of writers, all types of visual artists, painters, graphic designers, weird concept artists, musicians of all kinds making almost every genre, everyone. [...]
these people themselves ran the spectrum from being daily weed users to using it occasionally to not using it. i also myself ran this spectrum using it casually, then later seeing it as the fuel for my creativity, then later not using it at all.
i feel like a loser typing this out but it would simply be impossible for someone my age to have more firsthand experience observing the link between weed and creativity, both in myself and by observing the people around me. the link is inverse. weed is bad for creativity.
people that are creative with it would be more creative without it and the people that arent creative dont come up with anything good by using it anyway. just laying that out as its so contrary to folk wisdom that some people will need to hear it to even consider this possibility
have lots to say on this, lots of patterns ive observed and conclusions ive drawn but im 100% sure of the connection ive drawn here.
