At the time of typing this i'm not sure what day# I'm on anymore. I have had 1 cheese rage induced smoke and a few tokes with friends. I still consider it an overall success as i'm still working vigilantly towards being smokeless. My SC goals however are seriously slacking. I just get so worked up even when I win my body is all tingly and shaking. I can only get through a few games before i'm wiped out or run the risk of breaking the goal.

I did pick up yesterday and I haven't smoked any yet. The goal of today is to play 20 games of starcraft, at least. With a catch. I can smoke as much pot as I want over the next couple of days while I grind out games and familiarize my body with all of the feelings of winning/losing/adrenaline. I am somewhat of an adrenaline junkie as I love sports, speeding and scaring myself with physical feats. I'm not used to just sitting here and have my body pumping it out and not have anything to invest it in to :/

Rollerblading around town between cars, down hills, in n out of people on busy streets is one of my favorite activities. So i'm used to the buzz, the tingles and the fear but just sitting here between games is like torture I guess because my body associates adrenaline with extreme physical activity. Either skating, biking, boxing, rock climbing or hiking. Not just sitting around and it's not like I can work out more than I already do. It's already 13 hours a week intense cardio/BB'ing. I've tried burpees, shadow boxing and skipping between games but it wastes so much time. I'm distracted when the game starts and it's not productive.

I'm one of those nerds who likes to do things as optimally as possible or I go do something else until I can. I know it's just a matter of training my body to accept sitting down for a few hours and grinding out games. Don't get me wrong I have a TON of fun playing the game and do enjoy it. I'm just so confused as to what to do. I even tried using a pre-workout for my ladder run yesterday. That went terribly, after two games I was so wired I had to go for a run. From my research it just amounts to ladder grinding so the only way out is to get it done. So I think a little bit of some weed to calm myself when it gets really bad so I can continue without flipping out I can increase my endurance, hopefully. Thanks for reading

Sorry about not posting yesterday or I think the day before. I don't know, i'm going a little crazy without any nicotine o.O

I'm pro pot but I think you're going about this wrong. If you want to familiarize your body of the feelings of adrenaline caused by winning or losing, you should do it from a neutral state. First figure out what your body feels like when you aren't high. Then play SC and feel the difference with adrenaline added. You don't want to add two variables at once. The next thing you'll be saying is winning a game of SC makes you hungry.

Also I've never had adrenaline make me tingly. That was usually a side effect of the weed.

Well, I hadn't smoked weed in 4 days and that's what I felt man. I'm not smoking weed or cigarettes for this and i'm going through a lot of weird feelings/emotions. It's incredibly hard. I'll probably be saying weirder and weirder things over the next week. I don't know exactly how long it will take but I think if in a month that one I had on the 3rd day is the only one. Than I should be home free. Weed I feel will calm me down so I can play a ridiculous amount of games thus desensitizing myself to it. I mean constant games all day (I have literally nothing better to do until I go back to work). If it doesn't work at least it's an effort to try something different than play 2-3 games then go play something else or watch a stream. I honestly feel terrible for saying that I wouldn't smoke anything for a week but still caving. Now especially with this experiment lol Anything for improvement. I just hate sitting here wanting a smoke, denying myself and not being able to play starcraft in fear of just saying F IT, cheesy prick, it's your fault i'm doing this and lighting up. Which I did do once and wouldn't like to repeat.
