I see a lot written about 'triggers', 'excuses', so, on, so on.
we can all make excuses for our own need to carry on smoking. it's so, so easy. who is stopping you from quitting? (YOU ARE)
i made the diecision to stop and never (so far) went back on that. there will always be "triggers" and the like. There will always be old smoking friends, crappy partners who we argue with, life will always throw horrible things at you.
We have a choice when these things happen - cave in and bury oneself in pot, or face up to life and it's trials as a person without any crutches.
I am being harsh, i know.
I have lost loved ones, suffered FOUL arguments with my fiancee, had anniversaries of deaths, felt sorry for myself, got very drunk, got angry.
I used NONE of these as an excuse.
I have seen people smoking , smelt it, wanted it, could have got it. I did not.
I am tired of coming on this site and hearing loads of excuses for smoking.
Its rubbish and you know it.
We are all better equipped to handle our lives without pot. full stop.
try it, and see for yourself.
questions
is anyone actually clean?
for how long?
do you feel better?
My answers
Yes
for 2 months at least
i feel like a woman in control, having a great deal of fun, more energy and happier than i've been for 15 years.
all in all i cannot communicate to you all the huge, massive, endless benefits of being SOMKEFREE. It's the best thing i ever, ever did.
anyone who feels they can't do it, please post and argue with me.
we're supposed to be supporting each other through the quitting process, not supporting each other's continued use of that poison due to so-called excuses. this is not to say the excuses are real and can be horrible (ive read your posts) but they are NOT a reason to say "poor me, i need pot to cope". because it won't help you cope and you know it won't.
i am not sorry for being so assertive i want to help all of you who are serious about quitting. God knows that if i can do it (and i have) then all of you lot can too.
all the best and kind wishes to all whatever pain you're going through

Hardcharger reports "clean" since August 2nd, when I ran out and my errand girl disappeared for a few days. It's been a great 6 weeks in my life.. I found my voice, for now. Haven't had any cravings or yearning. It has been easy so far. Its' readily available, I don't see it and am not around it.
I had some plants growing way way in the back, I enjoyed visiting them and caringfor them, but they turned out to be males, and I pulled them last week, that felt good!
