Re: Getting Better At Quitting

Day 155 Life is great! Everyday, I'm staying busy and growing in so many ways. The temptation to smoke came and went a couple of times within the past few weeks, especially when the sun was out. During those moments, smoking seems so harmless. You remember all of the previous times that was so nice....

Re: Getting Better At Quitting

Day 128 The longest I had ever gone without smoking was 120 days out of the 8 years I've been smoking and by God's grace, I finally beat my all-time record! :D My sister still smokes occasionally and when she does, it's tempting. She knows I've quit for good though and supports my decision, so she d...

Re: Getting Better At Quitting

Day 87 A couple of days ago, I smoked again with my brother, who is the one who got me started smoking. It was so strange because my dad and my sister was smoking with us. After I was done smoking, I got so upset because I had broken my quit before I even hit my 4 month mark... the longest I had eve...

Re: Getting Better At Quitting

Day 34 Life is so great! Been focusing on my walk with God and doing more cardio. I do at least 30 minutes of fast-paced walking (been adding some running now) everyday and my skin has never looked better. In fact, I’d dare say that it’s glowing! One small thing that’s been bothering me is what I’ve...

Re: What would make a daily chronic stoner see the light

That's a great idea!
This forum would help a lot and help him to see the recurring thought processes all of us addicts have.

Re: Getting Better At Quitting

It's Day 24! I had a hard time sleeping last night - need to cut off coffee after 12... I feel great. These days, I'm back to feeling awesome. Alive and full of energy. There were days when I felt depressed and anxious. Those were the worst, but staying busy always helps. SLEEP is also a great answe...

Re: What would make a daily chronic stoner see the light

I think the best thing to do at this point is to SHOW your friend how different your life is now. When he sees the stark contrast between your life and his, he may may want to quit of his own volition. That's what happened with my brother. I'm not in contact with him so I don't know if he still smok...

Re: Moving on with my life (quitting again!)

I suppose it's not a coincidence that this forum has been so active lately, considering it's right after New Years'. To be honest, my decision to quit weed has stemmed from a desire to be more spiritually "on-track" with God and it has definitely helped me. I think hating weed is not bad a...

Re: Moving on with my life (quitting again!)

Wave! Nice job quitting again. I remember when I was quitting last time, we would post on each other's threads. I'm actually surprised that you caved after such a long time of quitting, but this is such a great lesson to all of us. The fact that you regret that much and you're going through the hell...

Re: Getting Better At Quitting

Day 19 It's getting increasingly harder to wake up! I used to be able to wake up with NO problem whatsoever soon after I quit. Since a few days ago, it's been getting harder and harder to. I've been dreaming a LOT after I snooze, so that should be incentive to wake up, especially when you dream that...

Re: Getting Better At Quitting

WAVE! Long time no talk. cleanofgreen, thanks for your reply! The past few days have gone by more smoothly. A bit more stable emotionally. That's the hardest thing about the whole withdrawal - the emotional aspect. Nothing's worse than being so anxious all the time. I think that's the thing though -...

Getting Better At Quitting

Hey all, I've posted here before and I quit successfully before... for 4 months. That was the longest I went without weed within the past 8 years I've smoked and the decision to cave again was so casual, which is what kills me. Every attempt to quit before seems so dramatic in retrospect. I don't kn...

Re: I've Been Fat Most Of My Life, But Enough Is Enough ):

Hi honey, I'm glad you had the courage to come and seek some sort of help in your situation. The fact that you want to change means that you can. As long as your desire to change is stronger than your desire to remain in your current situation, it's possible to change. Just remember that you can do ...

Re: Marijuana withdrawal

Hey ford_prefect, As a person who's relapsed many, many times, I know how you feel. Perhaps considering your background, it's harder for you (physically, mentally, and emotionally), but as long as you have the desire to quit, don't worry about a minor relapse. I've quit for four months and relapsed ...

Re: I will never quit quitting

Congrats @Matthew_1998! Thanks, and it's actually sis ;) It's been 8 days now, but I've been so focused on new online business stuff that I haven't even been keeping track of the days. I've quit before for 4 months, and since then, I've found that keeping an app that tracks the days is super useful....
