i quit 2 months ago 63 days to be exact. (yes im keeping count)
i quit mainly because i want to save money and to get a job (a real job) so far so good, i feel the difference in my pockets already.
i was smoking about an 8th every 2-3 days. whenever me and my boys got in a session we smoked an 8th easily in one sitting between 4 heads.
after 2 months i realized im better off without it. truthfully i will probably do it again since i got a couple sacks of good flavors saved that i dont wanna miss out on.but even then, i plan on only doing it like 2-3 times a week, if that
now my question to those who quit, were yall having crazy random dreams every night? i swear for the first 2-3 weeks i was having crazy dreams about EVERYTHING EVERY night. shyt was crazy. i googled it, did a lil research, its literally your brain going through a withdrawal.
as far as addiction goes, i think its ignorant for people to say it isnt addictive, no not physically, but mentally? absolutely. one of my boys wakes up, smokes. eats, smokes. drive to the mall? smokes. go to the gym? smokes. i dont care what anyone says, thats addiction. anything can be addicting, from sex, to working out, to smoking & drinking.
as far as weed making you lazy and keeping u from doing productive things, i cant necessarily agree. because the same friend who smokes all day happens to be the same nikka who is the opposite of lazy and is always doing something productive. lack of motivation to get things done can occur in non smokers. now one of my other friends, he says he has to smoke if not he gets angry and irritated easily (mainly at work) and to me, that shows that he is dependent of weed. im just so glad i was never like that.
now the main thing that bothers me is the lack of support from my friends (that i used to smoke with) they always insist that i smoke, and keep offering me to smoke when i chill with them. "u might as well just smoke" "where u gonna get a job at" "its good for u" etc. it has been an eye opener for me, you see who your real friends are when you try to make changes. i got friends who are proud of me quitting, even tho they agree that smoking isnt necessarily "bad for you" so lately i havent been chillin wit them nikkas like that. i have good will power, i can chill with them and not feel tempted to smoke. if the idea goes through my head i just crush that real quick.
