Quit 'n' pot

Posted by graniteboy on December 9, 2007, at 18:12:23

I started smokeing weed when i was 16 at first it was only when i could get some but it slowly progressed! Now i am 27 and have not smoke weed in 13 days but before those last 13 days i smoke pot like some people smoke ciggs from moment i get up too when i go to sleep.I have tried to quit many times before but allways find my back for one main reason,not to run or to hide but because i hate the person i become when i am not high.My whole adult life i have manage to get high. I mean my friends my work and even some of my family.Thats just a big part of my life its who i am.I have came a long way since i was 16 its been a long road but a fun on at times.We party like rock stars,i have done just about every drug on the street expect crack and heroin. I pick up some bad habits a long the way and some how been able kick every one of them.Pot has been my crouch thou all of this.Now i am ready to quit smokeing pot but its been hard the hardest thing todate and its far from over but day 13 is here and i am takeing one day at a time.I am not sure where im going with this but i am just going,Ready to be sober for the first time in along time and would love to talk with people that share this in common.

Hi - so sorry nobody answered your post.

I strongly applaud you & hope you're doing okay.

Even if you haven't met your goal, please don't let go of it.

I bet Narcotics Anonymous would be helpful for you or even Alcoholics Anonymous.
I believe both probably have online group meetings.

Best of luck for doing something really good for yourself.

Kath

One thing that keeps me from smoking pot is my sedating AP's.
