So, I decided about two months ago that I wasn't going smoke pot. I was a huge reefer maniac, smoking three or four times a day, but now I've gone over two months now without tokin' up and I'm doin fine, except for some lapses in sanity due to stress. Anyone have experiences with this?

eh, it's been two months almost exactly and I feel good about it. Don't spoil my thunder. Plus, I "kicked" your mom last night, and by "Kicked" I mean "Did the Hibbity-Dibbity."

expensive, wasn't doing too much for me, kind of made me paranoid after a while. I had only planned on stopping for a while, but then I figured I might as well keep going.

My friend called his piece "The Economizer" because instead of smoking a fat joint, he just put in a little tiny bit of bud and was good... Then, one night, he left his piece on the roof of my car when I left his house.

And with regards to quitting, you haven't met stress til you give up cigarettes one day, then caffiene the next. Talk about stressed and crazy, I'm pretty sure I lost a lot of friends. But, kudos to quitting... the most problematic symptom for me is not being stressed, but not having as much of an appetite or feeling waaaay too full and not having something on hand to take care of it.

Nice work on the two months, but it hardly means you're recovered now.

It's not like he was an addict... herb isn't addicting!

Anyway, i sometimes give it up for a while at a time, you know, when my tin's dry and i don't have any money.

I wasn't a complete pothead in my day, but I would toke up whenever possible (I never bought the shit, cuz I didn't have money... So I always carried the bowl or pipe). I have quit smoking before - twice. The first time was two summers ago. I lived in Europe for the summer, and started smoking like it was as important as breathing.... I was up to 2 1/2 packs a day when I returned home (only to realize that football practice started two days later). I quit cold turkey, and really didn't have a huge problem.... Then once I hit college this year, I became a smoking fiend again... I couldn't help myself.... 2 packs a day? No problem... Then I tried to play football with my friends in the park, and I was ready to die after about the 3rd score..... I decided I needed to quit. So I basically have. In fact, for the past month, I have had only 6 cigerettes - all on the way to parties....

But as for giving up weed, and having an "addiction", well, congrats I guess.... But in the words of Bob Saget in Half-Baked, "Marijuana is not a drug. Have you ever sucked dick for coke?"

This thread makes me want to smoke, ironically. I think I'll go do that. I haven't since the UF/FSU game, which was... Friday. I've cut down a lot lately, and I don't think I'll buy my own during school. If it's around, great, but I won't go out of my way to get it.

That's a good plan.

Quitting is cool if that's what you want. It just bugs me because I have friends who smoke all the damn time, like 3 times a day and they always talk about quitting. Why does it have to be all or nothing? I tell them to just cut down and only smoke if it's around.

does smoking really drastically affect your mind as far as school goe? normally i'd think that it would, but the biggest pothead that i know got a 1540 on his sats, and most of my other friends smoke casually on school days and they do pretty well.

and out of all of the drugs that i've done, the one that is the most addicting is adderall, as pathetic as that may sound, but its so hard to get rid of any urge to do it

they'll never catch me man.........cuz i'm fucking innocent

Yeah that's a good idea blackt.

It's pretty much how I am now... except for I do buy weed occasionaly.

I buy an 8th and it lasts me about a month to two months depending on how much my friends smoke. But an 8th lasting that long is pretty good, no?

I like how I felt and acted on Adderall, but I don't want to make a habit of it.

Pot really doesn't affect my grades at all. It did at first, but I can do basically anything when I'm high. I'd just be better off if I don't have it around once school starts. Less distraction.

I think a stoner is far more functional on average than an alcoholic. That's not to say that there aren't completely lazy ass stoners out there, but I've never seen weed ruin someone's life like alcohol and other drugs can.

I have a friend who takes aderol before he skates sometimes. He likes it a lot. He says it increases his his abiltity to concentrate for long periods of time. It sounds good, but like you said it's probably addicting as hell.

i've never done any illegal drugs.

But when i got in a car accident and received a concussion, they gave me some vicodin. Hot damn... that stuff was really fantastic.

as far as adderall goes, if you only take it like one day at a time its fine, but if you start to take a multiple days in a row then you'll be in trouble cuz you'll build up a tolerance really fast and the downs will make you feel like you're dying, but not wanting that combined with wanting to avoid the loss of dignity involved with taking ADD drugs helps me to avoid it

this summer, when i was smoking on a pretty regular basis, i went through one eighth and about a third of a half eighth cuz i really get high that easily, but i also used a gravity bong at the time

I get high really quickly too, andrew. I can take two or three good hits from a pipe and I'm set. It's been forever since I hit a gravity bong. I'm pretty sure that now I could take 1 hit off of one of those and be stoned for an hour at least.

It's weird how I used to have to smoke so much more when I first started and now I get high so quickly. It's like a reverse tolerance.
