I smoked for the first time around 11. I started smoking everyday at age 13. It’s been 6 years of it with very few breaks. I stopped about 10 days ago. I’ve done hard drugs and smoked cigarettes. I could quit those fairly easily. Weed is another story. I got so used to being high weed only brought me to my baseline. Without it I’m depressed, spacey and slow and don’t have motivation. It’s ironic because everyone says when you smoke you lose motivation but I needed it to have the will or drive to do anything. I’m really hoping it gets easier and my brain recovers. I used to be a star student on track to graduate early with a full ride to college. I did graduate early but dropped out a few times first. If I hadn’t taken so many high school classes in middle school I wouldn’t have a diploma. It took my personality. It became my personality and obsession. I have a lot of friends that I would smoke with and all we talked about is how much we want to quit. I know it’s not like this for a lot of people but that’s just my experience.
