shoot2ill Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 What things do you guys use to forget about bad things going on in your life? Smoking Just makes me feel empty. I like smoking a lot though.

MichaelLCP Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 I don't try to forget about the bad things. And smoking definitely wouldn't do that for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NitetimeReign Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 I don't smoke to forget anything, but a good hookah session is very helpful if I am feeling stressed from the day or something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vendetta_revived Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 I will just repeat what everyone else is saying, I don't smoke to forget anything, but I do smoke to relax when I am stressed as hell, and it helps. In fact, I often experience breakthroughs while smoking, about the problems that are bugging me at that time. I guess that happens because it relaxes me and I can look beyond the all the stress and chaos and see the solution. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuie Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Smoking keeps me off the bottle.... I mean the wine barrel (I usually don't stop after one bottle of wine) It's a less damaging vice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcane Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 If I'm not watching a movie, smoking hookah actually makes me think of stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicagoRSX Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 To me there is no point in forgeting the things that bother you. You can only deal with those things. I will smoke to relax myself so I can clearly examine the issue. Besides, everything I'd want to forget, inevitably, made me the person I am. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EAK1791 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 While I don't smoke to forget things, I [i]can[/i] kinda use it a temporary escape. Between being relaxed and more preoccupied with the process of getting everything ready, and heat management and the like, I don't think about the other stuff as much. But for the most part, I agree with every one else. When I smoke I normally think about my problems, and more clearly than usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agunn1231 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 I smoke to think about things rather than forget. it gives me a few hours to focus on the things in my life. Positive Negative and Neither. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintPendulous Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 I smoke at the end of the day so i can relax and think about whatever happened that day, or just to unwind and turn my mind off for a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappydoo Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 [font="Georgia"][size="4"][color="#4b0082"]Not to forget, but it is awesome to take yourself out of the game and think things thru. Smoking relaxes me enough that solutions come to me that wouldn't if I was muddled with other thoughts. I hope everything is ok?

Sumoninja92 Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Smoking hookah is usually the time I think about all the things that have gone on in the past. I never think about present stuff. I only review what I've done so I don't make the same mistakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dropbear Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Smoking usually just helps me relax, personally...after a long stressful day, its a good way to bring the day to an end slowly, especially if your smoking with friends and just talking. As a way to escape or forget problems, I learned they tend to just rear up and bite you right afterwords if you try to ignore them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltimateHookah Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I like to smoke to remember things in my life. Different shisha brands and flavors can make me remember different times in life. For example Nakhla Two Apples reminds me of smoking 12 years ago. Many Nakhla flavors remind me of smoking years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breaktime Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 It is a good thing to take time to realign your thoughts, and to step back from what is pushing you through your day. Whether it is having a coffee, reading a book, or staring at the ceiling, or putting a coal on the hookah. Take a little time in your day to determine if you are walking through your life, or if you are getting dragged by the ankle... And adjust it accordingly. I might have to make this my footnote.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodles Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 As others have noted, Shisha helps me relax more than anything. The act of setting up the hookah itself is like a calming ritual that I take my time with [img]http://www.hookahforum.com/public/style_emoticons/default/happy.gif[/img].

TheyCallMeDave Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 To be honest... I can't even remember what I think about or what goes through my head during smoking. I suppose that means I relaxed as hell! Lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nazeli Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I used to go to my ex bffs house everyday and smoke and talk about all the things that bothered us. It was a really nice time. Too bad she turned out to be a bitch but other than that I miss those nights....I still smoke everyday lol it's just not the same when it's your bf or some friend you have you know? :/ this made me sad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Name Available Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 I smoke for the simple fact I enjoy smoking hookah! It's also relaxing to me, so that's another reason why I do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
