Without weed, I'd rather be dead, forum users admit
The harsh reality behind the desire to smoke weed

Desperation over hierba use has come to light on the forum, where users confess that, without weed, they would rather be dead than face the impossibility of escaping an existence they consider imposed. Far from being a simple venting session, the thread exposes a deep rift between those who see the substance as a survival tool and those who question the maturity of such dependence.

Necessary escape or chronic immaturity?

The debate quickly splits. While some forum members defend the occasional use of weed as a coping mechanism against a hostile environment and a high degree of personal cynicism, others are quick to point out the childishness of the argument. Tension escalates when comparisons with other substances, such as cocaine, are introduced, turning the conversation into murky territory where existential nihilism mixes with the defense of drug use as the only way out of suffering.

Prohibition as a wall against discontent

A current of thought in the thread holds that the persecution of any hint of escapism is nothing more than a systemic attempt to prevent the individual from drifting away from a forcibly imposed reality. Rather than seeking conventional help, participants take refuge in cynicism, going as far as to claim that happiness is a chimera and that the only truth is the need to anesthetize oneself. The question left hanging, without a clear answer, is whether this discontent is a symptom of a generation without horizons or simply the usual noise from those who have turned self-destruction into an identity.
