HIGH INTENSITY
That is the best advice I have ever heard.
THANKYOU!
Jeez... you get out much??? I mean, no offense to you HI but fuck.
Anywho... first off, how old are you? Second, how is weed fucking up your life?
Your story sounds almost the same as mine. But, I'm pretty content with my ganja smoking for the time being. I started to smoke about 3 years ago, and have been an everyday smoker for about 2 years now. I'm 24 by the way. I quit back in January of this year for about 2 months... time went by incredibly slow, and I started to lose my desire to stay sober. When I smoked it seemed there was a life waiting for me that I ignored because of my pot smoking. Then, when I abandoned my pot smoking I realized that in reality the people that don't smoke are bored out of their fucking minds. This explains the television epedimic. People wake up in the morning, they get dressed, go to work, come home at 6, plop their asses down on the couch, watch t.v., maybe go lift weights, go home, eat, go to bed. Wake up, and do the same shit over and over and over again.
I don't watch T.V. for shit anymore. I can find something else to occupy my time. Listen to the radio and think, read a book that wraps you up. Pot has a bad rap, and mostly, it's because it is illegal and we were raised to think it is bad. I don't care what anyone says... I have been an alcoholic, I was before I switched to the herb. My body felt like shit, I was an asshole, got violent.
Pot mellows me out. I don't use it like an 18 year old kid to get high and act like a fucking idiot. I have a job with middle aged workers, engineers, yet I come back from lunch high every single day... and I get along just fine in there.
If pot is consuming you, you need to slow down. No quesiton. But, turning to alcohol like someone else suggested is fucking stupid, no offense to who ever said that by the way. Alcohol is worse for your body, mind, and spirit that pot. Period.
Pot is also a great way to enlighten your mind, expand your knowledge, and contact your soul. Any real pot smoker would know exactly what I am talking about.
Like the movie American Beauty. Everything's beautiful... you have appreciation for the smaller things in life. The clouds, the birds, the wind, the sun, the trees, plants.... most importantly, the ability to look within yourself and evaluate who you really are, looking at yourself closely, almost from another perspective, to realize your faults, and your strengths.
Pot got me off alcohol. It hasn't been a gateway drug, nor will it. I won't do other drugs. Period.
What is your life without pot going to be like, compared to your current existance?
