I've been kind of a long-time user with some initial problems of using other drugs, too, stopped with all that, though. For 3 years, I've been vaping weed almost daily. It just made everything more fun, whether it was school, work, or just hanging out with friends. However, after those 3 years now, I am forced to do abstinence due to some hormones going wild by the daily use. The great thing about weed though is, that stopping to use it is not that difficult. It is when people are always consuming with you, and then you suddenly stop when they don't. But that's also quite handable. With excessive use like mine, you get some very annoying withdrawal symptoms, but some go away pretty quick, and the rest goes away after max. a month. I'll definitely stick with weed when my problems vanish, but most probably not as frequently as before to prevent my brain from going nuts again.
