That sounds a lot like me and smoking tobacco. I quit too, and it was really really hard, but easily the best thing I've ever done for myself. Good on you man, keep up the good work and self-respect.

Since you can't drink now, switch to weed.


lol what?

apart from the obvious lung cancer risk there's memory loss and paranoia among others

Yeah weed has no side effects. I'm sure some of my buddies who can't get in to college and have been hanging out with the same 3 people for the last 5 years will readily agree with you.

Just read the story, was linked here from another blog. I went through a similar experience, but in my case it was a combination of weed and alcohol. Weed can definitely fuck you up, don't listen to the idiots saying otherwise. I used to blaze 3-4 times a day for a few years, also drank at least a 6 pack before sleep, a pack of smokes a day too. Chewing tobacco, X, coke occasionally. Looking back now it seems like hell but sadly those were probably the best years of my life. Went out partying, drugs whenever I wanted, clubbing and living with no plans for the future or immediate regrets.

I can't smoke weed anymore, I get paranoid, best case scenario would be an anxiety attack with a following headache and depression. The phase that you describe when you talk about your work is exactly what I felt after my mind started playing tricks on me. I came to realize I'd suffered serious, probably permanent damage to my nervous system; most likely I would never be the same again.

This anxiety is a feeling of absolute fear, paranoia and confusion. I can't stress enough how fucking bad it makes you feel, and how dumb it makes you. I was completely cloudy-headed and felt ill constantly. I was in a high-pressure and very responsible job and it was freaking killing me and making people hate me left and right.

This is precisely how I felt and somewhat still feel nowadays. Your senses are impaired, you can't operate in high-pressure environments. I really know everything you are going through.

I haven't smoked one cig or a joint since 4 years ago. I can't do drugs anymore and I don't ever feel the urge to. I still drink but I know it's a bad habit, when I drink I don't usually stop unless I feel buzzed. Cutting down on beer is a must, working out is a must. Steady job helps too. At this point in life you need to sort things out and do everything "right" to try and rebuild yourself as much as you can. You shouldn't try to become what you used to be, this won't happen, your body chemistry is different already. Start from scratch and work you way out. Watch some motivational shit, even stupid things like Naruto and teary dramas used to help me get inspired.

It doesn't matter what you were, it only matters what you are now. If you climb out of this you will be hundred times stronger than anyone you know who hasn't been through this.

thanks for that post. im trying to do this building stuff. lately ive been listening to david angelo or similar for 2 hours a day and trying to practice some of those skills (or at least be more aware of them in myself and others). ive taken up a bit of guitar too. and im trying to be a bit more selfish and in control of my happiness. i went to a standup comedy show the other day and it was fantastic, a real proper way to spend your money. better than sitting in cinema alone. (god i love Brighton)

it does blow when you're so shit at life that you're having to consciously train yourself to smile every day because you're not able to. i realised one of the reasons people dont really like me is because the anxiety causes you to have totally dead facial expressions, like you're terrified of everything. so im totally retraining myself. like you said, its kinda an interesting challenge and path to go through.

I think the weed is more a side effect of your lazy friends then the other way around.
