    i'll take that to mean that you know alcohol is a drug.

    if not "sure...i could go a year without drugs. but i'd still use plants"

    I could definitely be sober for a year. I like smoking for a long period of time then suddenly stopping. The highs are much better when you're system is not used to it.
    In fact, I recently went back to smoking this past weekend(it was my birthday) after being sober for over four months. Stayed stoned for days.:)

    I could do it, but I wouldn't want to. I'm being forced to refrain from smoking weed for the next 6 months for probation, but I'm still going to do hallucinogenics and whatever else I can do without fear of failing a drug test. If i wanted to go sober for a year I definitely could, but I would never want to stop smoking weed. I just love it so much. And i wouldn't want to stop having the occasional trip. I don't much enjoy drinking or downers or uppers for that matter, so I wouldn't have any trouble with that.

    I think it's easier said than done... i mean I say I could, but I mean, I'd have no motivation to do so...

    So I'd say no. I could probably give up weed for a year, but I couldn't be sober for a year. I wouldn't say I'm addicted tho, because I'm not dependent on the drug for happiness or whatever.

    I did so for a period of about 6 months (doing a lot of 'designated driver' duty) but it got to be a bit boring, and drinking fruit juices and non-alchoholic drinks that were just as expensive just not cost effective.
    So now I partake at my pleasure and feel mhuc btetre ;)

    Dude.. No.

    I think sobriety needs a better definition, for clearly, some psychoactive compounds create more severe impairment than others. For example, a person who is drunk off of alcohol is far more impaired than a person taking a very small amount of Adderall for example.

    As for me, I could never go a year without taking any psychoactive substance, but I also would PREFER to spend multiple years without being intoxicated on any agent to the point of losing my executive mental abilties. I prefer to take drugs that don't severely intoxicate me, in low doses, regularly, as opposed to occasionally partaking in drugs that will strip my mind of it's mental decision making abilities.

    i don't like the whole "if it's a plant, it's not a drug" theory. keep telling yourself that :)

    almost every drug conceived today comes from a naturally occurring source.

    as for me, i could be sober for a year, but it isn't a year i would want to remember :smoking:

    Considering the fact that I'm three months in to a self imposed break from weed my answer is unequivocably "yes".

    that is exactly how I am haha. it is so so so much better. back when I smoked everyday I could smoke a whole gram of highest quality weed and barely even feel that good. so now I only use it sometimes.

    i could easily go a year without weed but something like 5 years without weed would be very hard.

    I could. I've done it before. And I'm on probation (again) so looks like I'm doing it now. I haven't smoked in gosh I don't know.... 6 months? I forget how it feels, to be honest. :( And I used to drink every single day, don't do that anymore. But I do smoke cigarettes, and drink a whole lot of coffee each day, I think those LEGAL substances would be the hardest to give up. I'm not even alive until I've had coffee. And the headaches.... I'm hooked.
