So as you may or may not know
Staleghoti smokes the pot
Well I ran out and figured I'd take the opportunity to quit. Any words of encouragement would be much appreciated.
Anyone else dealing with trying to get over an addiction?
I must admit I think I'm more addicted to smoking anything than I am to smoking cannabis.
I was thinking of quitting for a while, like until I have grandkids like that Patton Oswalt bit

Smoking cigarettes however is an entirely different story.

also be prepared for some fucking nightterrors.
i think that's what i hate the most. 2 weeks straight of semi-lucid horrible dreams.
I feel pretty similar right now
my biggest issue will be when I start having dreams again. Last time I took a "break" and had some heavy ass dreams, they depressed me so much I almost flunked that entire semester so I promptly got back onto getting high.
edit: bwanie beat me
Dear satan I wish for this or maybe some of this....oh and I'm a medium or a large.
And it really would be helpful for me to stop that
But as I am sure you can understand there is a vicious circle involved here
Do you smoke too much of it or is it a financial thing?
waking up into another dream into another dream times 20 wears you the fuck down
how do you usually smoke? A great way to quit is just like those old tales where people's parents/grandparents made them smoke entire packs of cigarettes- hit up the bong for a ridiculous amount of time and just connect smoking pot with being too high to function and burning out like a motherfucker, combined with horrid lungs, and you'll be jumping to quit
the former
and I'm getting to that point in life where I should probably settle down and focus on being motivated and successful
Dear satan I wish for this or maybe some of this....oh and I'm a medium or a large.
take melatonin at night before going to bed for a week or two then try sleeping without it, see if dreams come back
what's your stance on humor based medical practice and bloodletting?
is there any other kind
and hey
sometimes a guy just has a bit too much blood
I've been hitting a bong almost exclusively for about 4 years.
The smoking myself out strategy has not worked. I think I need to do the coldturkey-more-activity strat instead

I had no idea it stops dreams and quitting gives you night terrors.
What spring does with the cherry trees.
how much is too much?
i try to keep it to weekends and the occasional smoke when i can sleep in.
yes I double-checked that he wasn't just smoking a regular pipe
it doesn't stop dreams. it's just when you quit that things get hairy.
which, in itself is a pretty depressing indicator that it's impacting your gammawaves on a level that i'm not comfortable with.
What spring does with the cherry trees.
I smoke pretty much all the time.
Anyone who's seen me on tinychat at any hour of the day will attest to this
Dear satan I wish for this or maybe some of this....oh and I'm a medium or a large.
it's the only way.
that at least makes you a lot more functional user in my experience.
so i dont drink smoke or do drugs
the only thing i let myself get away with is excessive videogaming
No you won't.
then you won't get them
I'm pretty sure you'll only get withdrawal symptoms if you're smoking every day
not everyone has "night terrors" when halting usage of marijuana
in that
i have never ever met anyone who has dealt with this
mind like a laser beam, pew pew
On the upside there is a hot architect in my class who also nail bites like god damn crazy so maybe I can parlay this into some sort of awkward, neurotic flirtation.
nah brah
(ok, just the thumbs. but those take forever to grow. and without that nice white edge visible i have no motivation to stop gnawing)
and I didn't have any adverse effects
so pffffrrrrrt
for how long did you smoke?
maybe the fact that i've been smoking for a good 15 years might play into that.
Oh hi I didn't know we were the same person
im done
Literally going crazy and getting mad all the time, as you may have noticed. Today I snapped on a man who was really depressed but it cheered him up somehow so whatever! Why am I so much more personable on the phone when I'm mad? I don't get it at all!
However, the ring will never leave your finger, and you will be unable to ever describe to another living person what you see.
and those were while drunk/high
i think i can confidently say i could go an entire month without smoking, as long as i make sure my friends dont offer me a drag while im tweaked or drunk
