Hi everyone! It's me again. I seriously slipped up and had a total relapse on weed for about the last 3 or 4 months.

So i'm back on day zero today

Hello mate, I've been off the weed 17 weeks. I'm also still really distressed and mad at myself for letting my life get this out of control for so long, but, what are we gonna do?! Go back to smoking weed all the time and bury our heads in the sand for another 20 odd years lol? I don't think i would...

George how u going off the pot how did u go were u suffering symptoms like depression and anxiety Hi there, yes, i suffered greatly at the beginning, it was extremely difficult to get past the first 3 or 4 days without breaking. During those first 3 or 4 days, if i'd had easy access to weed, like s...

The last three days have been hell my head is consuming me with negative thoughts I don't think I can function or work anymore. I think of ending this nightmare but can't. I need to find some inner strength as I don't want to go away for help I'm recovery. Am I one of the ones that don't cope from ...

17 weeks off of the weed today What's good family? Hi Cali, here's the good word, haha... So here i am at 17 weeks off the devils lettuce. I still think about getting stoned here and there, maybe even more often than when i first quit. But it doesn't hold much weight with me. And the thought soon lo...

14 weeks today off the weed today. Morning all. So I've not really had much of a problem staying off the weed. i think even my addict brain realizes there's nothing more i can possibly get from smoking it. I mean smoking it for 20 years plus from waking first thing, to an hour or two before bedtime ...

Oi G! Hey brother, keep on it. I don't have to tell you what you already know. Alcohol is just so easy to get, and the culture just pushes it. It maybe time for outside help. Blackout drunk is no good, ever. But at our age, unacceptable. Don't give up mate. There's another life out there waiting fo...

13 weeks today since i quit weed. Hello all, so not too much change since my last weekly update really. I hardly ever think about going back on the weed. It's not that i never think about it at all, but it's generally a fleeting thought with little pull on me. I suppose it's because of the length of...

Hi Slick Willy So one thing i can recommend is a 12 step program. Although i haven't started one myself yet i feel it's probably the number one thing to do for our diseased brains. I don't think all the will power in the world can keep me sober forever if i look at my past history objectively George

Weed free, 12 weeks as of tomorrow: Sat 14 July 2018 Hi folks so first of all the good news is i'm 12 weeks off the weed as of tomorrow. In all honesty, i rarely even think about going back to weed. The bad news however is I've not been successful with quitting alcohol. Just lately I've started reve...

But i must admit, I've started thinking how weed was better then getting drunk now I've let alc...

DAY 66 (off weed) DAY 3 (off alcohol) Hi folks So due to my lapse with alcohol the other day, right on cue, my addict brain as started coming up with ways i can start drinking again. So far my addiction as all but convinced me i can start drinking once a week, but no more. "We can just get drun...

Even if i lapsed once every 2 or 3 months with one drinking session i'd be ok-ish with that i suppose . But my goal is still to be 100% sober. No no no no no mate....right there you're just giving yourself cautious permission in advance to go ahead and get fkd up, even occasionally. Except every co...

Its time to bring out the big guns! The navy seal quotes on you.. hehe.. There are two ways to do somet...
