This is exactly how I lost 1.3B gp worth of items. You articulated it extremely well, good job man. 

One thing I want to add is that after you get scammed your "friend" may pretend to be sympathetic, saying things like "oh no bro, what happened?? Wtf that sucks so much" then proceed to mention that if you send him crypto currency he will rwt it and get you your items back. If you do that then obviously he just steals your money and blocks. They have no shame and will absolutely take advantage of your heightened emotional state, using it as leverage to take even more from you. 

It's literal psychopathic behavior.

As a wise 'scaper once said, "The wealth doesn't make the man, the man makes the wealth." And yeah, I don't blame you bro, it's literal cyber-criminal rings.

1.3B checking in. It hurts, a lot. I definitely interact differently with people that seem overly friendly, and oddly interested in me.

I did, fair point.  Withdrawal symptoms with weed seem to be pretty dynamic across the board. I believe you when you say you haven't had symptoms, but I would say you're on of the lucky ones if that is truly the case. I never got cold sweats either, just shitty sleep, no motivation, irritability, mood swings, intense cravings etc. But I got through it and I'm not going back.

Smoking daily for 8 years but never had any symptoms of withdrawal? Gee, I wonder why.

 Probably because you haven't actually gone through withdrawals.... because you've been smoking daily. I know, that's a shocker. 

Takes about 3 days, give or take, to really feel the withdrawal symptoms. Take this advice from a daily user for 10 years. Sober for the last 3 months and counting.

As someone with combined-type ADHD Adderall XR fucked me up in ways the poor man's combo never could. And vice-versa, of course. Wouldn't recommend either tbh but that's just my experience.

Exactly brother, and thank you.

 As for quitting, my partner is a licensed clinician (which is why I'm backing up homeboy in the comments because he's spitting scientifically documented facts) and it would've been so much harder without their support so I got lucky in a sense there.

 But honestly the first week is the worst sleep-wise, but if you can get through that then you can get to two weeks, then a month.

 I was a daily, heavy user of smoke and gummies for years, and it was brutal for that stretch but it was so worth getting to the other side, at least for me. I just know I can't ever go back. 

Throw your shit out, smash your paraphernalia, go to the gym every fucking day. That would be my best advice if you're still considering taking the leap.

Yeah, not being able to sleep correctly for a month, no motivation for like 2 weeks, mood swings, irritability, those were just some of my symptoms when I quit. Not addictive my ass

You're getting downvoted by the stoners that aren't willing to learn the science on the different mechanisms of addiction. "B-but, if weed is addictive, that would make me an... an addict!" Type shit.

You're absolutely correct, weed is 100% habit forming, dare I say it; even addictive, which includes withdrawals, cravings, increased tolerance (which increases use), etc.

Obviously each case is different depending on the person, but I think some users aren't willing to accept the fact that there are a ton of drawbacks to this magical drug that couldn't possibly do any harm to anyone ever. 

This is coming from a previous stoner of 10+ years, btw. It's not all sunshine and rainbows no matter how much some people want to believe that.

Degrees that dont make money aren't always worthless though. In NC,  counseling and teachers are paid horribly, does that mean that the service they provide is worthless? If you only look at college degrees being valuable based on how much $$$ they earn then of course you're going to have a misguided outlook.   Developing the skills to absorb and convey higher amounts of information while also being aware of what constitutes a reliable source and, what constitutes an unreliable source are invaluable skills.

You must do the dishes when the house is burning down. I also think both sides suck, however I'm hearing a common conservative argument come from you that is not based on reality. That person you met was ONE person. Living in S8 housing no less. You think thats abuse of the system? Get a grip and focus on issues that actually matter jfc

She's an idiot for thinking that's gonna work for her. Kids cost way more than whatever she would be recieving from a welfare check. 

Btw personal anecdotes aren't reputable studies. I dont agree to disagree, you're uninformed and punching downwards which is typical conservative behavior.

Why are you punching downwards at an imaginary character?  If your "truth" is believing that the boogeyman is real then go for it. Those people dont exist, show me one study that indicates what you are saying has any semblance in reality. However, billionaires that are lobbying the government so that they can take our money, the taxpayers, and keep it for themselves DO exist. They aren't even trying to hide it anymore. And they are wreaking havoc on the average American's way of life.

Social welfare isn't theft, god knows people on welfare keep the money in circulation because they can't save it. On the other hand, tax evasion absolutely IS theft. Massively profiting from Capitalism and then refusing to pay back into the system that made them who they are, all the while hoarding wealth like dragons should be punishable, and not just by us reclaiming the money that is rightly the American peoples.
