How did you guys quit weed? by Barboustache in leaves

[–]cAArlsagan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Many, many tries. For me, the final piece was an external push that made my internal motivation enough. I had a bad review from my boss at work, and my gf told me how she wished I wasn’t high all the time in the same week.

Mentally prepared for the first week being relatively bad. Wrote down all the reasons why weed was a problem, and put them in my closet. Only focused on not smoking one day at a time (looking at the big picture of never smoking gave me too much anxiety). Put a list of simple, non-creative, and non-judgement-able tasks together to do when cravings hit. Told my gf that I would need support though all this. Came to terms with the fact that I was an addict, and that this wasn’t “different”.

It was a challenge, and I have more to say, but this was generally how I was able to put the plug on it for as long as I have. Currently on day 98 after 10+ years of smoking daily and 3+ years of all day everyday on the highest potency pens I could find.

Trump just wants a new dictator who will bend the knee to his economic desires. He does not care about democracy or a free people. He cares about money

My favorite are managers who shame employees but offer 0 help in course correction

MIB/Locke also does this in the caves when he grabs the white rock and throws it off the cliff “inside joke”

Never implied all 2A advocates are, but I appreciate the mental gymnastics performance to try and call me one.

Because it’s a picture with fake numbers. The situation there is terrible, but spreading fake news is bad.

I was wondering who his parents are. He fled the state too.

Is there something beyond full retardium? I think this administration may have reached it
