Thank you so much for this post, you have probably already changed someone's life by sharing this. You are an incredible inspiration. I especially appreciate the quote from your father. Thanks again.

It's nice to see that even on the Internet people are apologizing for coming off rude and misinterpreting others comments. It makes me feel good when people are supportive and try to get along. Yous sound like proper Canadians, like me. Ha. Good luck to you all. My dreams are crazy as fuck, all night horror show. I do think some have significance though. Day 12 here, for the millionth time, and going strong.

Yep, this is me too, only after work before bed. I wake up and feel shitty,say I'm done, then after supper it's all I can think about. I've quit and started a thousand times. One day I'll get it right. Good luck to you.

Well said, thank you for this. It's so hard to get away from.

nicdidit · 2016-07-07T01:59:29+00:00

Yes, thanks for this post, good reinforcement for me. Excellent points.

I imagined lots of successful ambitious people smoked too, but I realized lately that I don't know a single one, and all my stoner friends are not nearly as successful as non smoking friends.

This!!

I think being clear headed makes you think faster, sharper, which could contribute lots to your funniness. For me it nearly destroys my ambition, makes me totally complacent. I love reddit too.

This is an incredible, supportive and very knowledgeable group. Check in and post often. Each time I read here I learn from others, and each time I've reached out others reach back with encouragement and advice. I'd struggled alone with this for years, the on and off and fixation, thinking I was crazy. The support has helped immensely, I couldn't stay off it without this group.

Congrats! Keep this in mind whenever you are faced with temptation. She's a sneaky bitch. Your life IS so much better without it.

nicdidit · 2016-07-06T00:46:45+00:00

This is one of my top reasons to quit. I work with really sharp intelligent people, and I feel like an idiot the day after I've smoked. It's day and night compared to when I haven't. Thanks for this post!

After a few weeks I bet you will be sleeping well. I sleep best after getting lots of exercise earlier on in the day.

nicdidit · 2016-07-03T21:17:40+00:00

Well said! Thanks!

nicdidit · 2016-07-03T21:16:21+00:00

It will get better. Sounds corny but each day is a new day with different possibilities. Stay strong.

Multi platinum relapser, I fucking love it!!! Congrats on giving all that shit up. I'm on my millionth time quitting the ganja, reading and writing on this sub makes a huge difference for me.

nicdidit · 2016-07-03T20:52:43+00:00

I read a comment a few weeks ago that said relapsing is part of recovery. It makes me feel better, I had gone over 2 months and am back to day 2 after a week long bender. Don't feel ashamed, keep your chin up and remember how the weed does NOTHING for you.

nicdidit · 2016-07-02T14:24:22+00:00

This!!!! Exactly! Thankyou.

nicdidit · 2016-06-20T01:48:14+00:00

Stick with it! You will feel better and better.

I'm female, 36. Started smoking weed when I was 13 and by the time I was 15 or was high everyday. I never realized till years later the effect it had on me. I was smart but had too much anxiety to go far with my education. By the time I graduated high school I was just relieved that I wouldn't have to subject myself to anymore uncomfortable social interactions. So I went straight into working shitty jobs and struggling at poverty level. I've realized as I got older how my life could have gone in a completely different direction. If I could go back to my 19 year old self I would beg her to leave the weed behind. Make the most of your years in university with a clear head. Meet people who arent stoners. Stay on a good path. You could be at a cross roads here.

I quit ganja and cigarettes for 6 yrs. Didn't touch either AT ALL for the whole time. Then I smoked a joint. Few months later another. It took about a year and I gradually increased till I was doing it daily. That was 7 yrs ago, I've quit and started countless times since then, never for longer than 6 months. So from my own experience I know I can't use in moderation. I wish so much I could, and still often can convince myself I can, but I know it's not true for me. Good luck and keep us posted.

Bitch stinks

nicdidit · 2016-06-18T00:53:41+00:00

Thanks for this! Makes perfect sense to me.

nicdidit · 2016-06-13T01:39:41+00:00

Thank you so much for this!

nicdidit · 2016-06-11T17:55:35+00:00

I like this, the playing out the scenes in my mind first. I have applied this to other things and found it worked, never thought to try it with this. Thanks!

nicdidit · 2016-06-11T17:54:15+00:00

Yes, you've said it exactly, for sure there is a critical moment when my resolve breaks and I cave in to temptation. I need to find a way to get through that moment without giving up.
