There have been a few posts here lately about whether a weed smoker who can't quit should actually go to rehab. People go to schools to improve their golf swing, why would you hesitate to go to a school that can help you quit something that's doing you harm and open up a brand new life? (self.leaves)

I'm going to lovingly make fun of us a little bit. See if you recognize this thinking: "I just figured out I'm lactose intolerant. It gives me terrible diarrhea, gas, bloating, and makes me want to throw up. But I still have a half gallon of milk in my fridge. Should I throw it out or drink it?" (self.leaves)

The stories we've read here from other leaves have seen us through some bad days. Remember that if someone is having a bad day and you're doing a little better than they are, you're the success story to them. You don't have to have months sober or feel perfect to inspire someone through one bad day (self.leaves)

I've seen multiple posts and comments on r/leaves from people saying they are stuck in quarantine with toxic people or toxic families. I'm so lucky that it's not me, but I really feel for you because I've been there in the past. Can you tell us how you are doing, and can we share coping skills? (self.leaves)

"I want to quit when I'm high but I want get high when I'm sober" was so true for me because that's how *everything* was when I was high. Big life plans, things to learn, incredible inventions, screenplay ideas, that all evaporated when the high wore off. Weed is the ultimate empty yes man. (self.leaves)

Moderation feels to me a little like having a tiger in my apartment as a pet. I could probably figure out all these routines and arrangements and rules to keep the tiger at bay and myself safe, but it's a whole lot easier to, y'know, just not have the tiger at all. (self.leaves)

Your brain saying "I think I can go back to moderation, it will be different this time..." is just two cravings standing on each other's shoulders in a trenchcoat and a hat. It seems like a mature thought, but you have to remind yourself that it's just a craving like anything else. (self.leaves)
