Long-time stoner wants to quit...but argh, it's actually really hard for me!

I can take breaks, but I'll be smoking and tripping a little bit for the rest of my days I think.

 

Your not going to quit becuase first of all.

You still like to do it, alot of your brain still likes it and with that in mind you dont have a good reason to stop smoking.

 

i feel the same way man

ive been smoking every day for about 8 years now.. the longest ive went without smoking all these years is probably a month, and that was only like twice.

i feel fine totally fine. i love life, have plenty of motivation, no social troubles, emotionally stable.. i was a little surprised to see how many people have been so negatively effected by weed. i havent noticed any ill effects, and i smoke from the time i get up, to the time i go to bed. even when taking a break i didnt find it all that hard to quit... i would just keep myself occupied and i wouldnt even think about smoking. the only trouble i had was getting to sleep at night without being stoned... but that was easily helped by taking some melatonin and theanine supplements at night.


maybe ive kinda forgot what its like to live without being stoned on a long term basis. but to be honest, im not really concerned. i enjoy smoking weed, and it doesnt hold me back in any areas of my life. it has greatly helped my psyche and shown me the ways of peace, compassion, and respect for all mother nature and all of humanity. it enhances my appreciation for life and every moment i experience it. it makes me think in new ways, and helps me see the veiled truth behind a lot of things i probably wouldnt even think about if i wasnt stoned.

overall, i genuinely believe marijuana has helped me FAR more so than it has ever harmed me. i live my life stoned, sure. but i dont think it "defines" me whatsoever. i dont feel trapped in the least bit... instead i feel thankful that this herb is in my life and has shown me all the beautiful things about life that she has.

by the way, im not trying to start a debate or argue with anybody about their experiences with weed. i just saw a whole lot of negativity, and thought id share my experience for some counter-balance
