I think I am going to inflict something horrible on myself

+1 for 14'ers.

Benzo addiction is also cool, some of them help your gh - growth hormone (somatropin) - levels considerably.

Agreed re: 14ers and hiking in general as good exercise. I did Pikes Peak 2 weekends ago since I was "trapped" in Denver over the weekend on business. Big difference compared to New England mountains.

As far as quitting weed... go away on business trips regularly. I don't carry and don't smoke when on the road so I get a good 2 weeks off every month, sometimes 3... at least Monday through Friday. I go home most weekends even if it means a red-eye Friday night with a flight back out on Sunday. Weed's much more enjoyable after a bit of clean out.

I don't understand... Why does a guy at your age who looks like you do have self esteem problems? As the old saying goes youth is wasted on the young...

Either learn to use weed socially or for appetite. If you can't stop all together and save your money on CLA and b12 for appetite.

I'm not getting down on you because I'm the same way with beer. I could be drunk and not even know it... So I stopped drinking all together several years ago.

The horrible thing your doing to yourself is sitting there boored smoking weed and knowingly causing yourself help problems... But continuing to do it anyway. The best thing your body is telling you right now is that weed is disgusting. This will help you quit. But once you quit you need to stop entirely or atleast use weed sparingly.

What? How do I have self esteem problems? I'm way fucking full of myself these days don't you worry. I just deleted like 45 things I wrote because they all made me sound like an egomaniac.

I smoke pot for my own reasons. It just isn't working anymore. Mother fucker.

SHIT. I just remembered a huge hash connect I found on the weekend. Nevermind. Bots will do the trick.

Got one of those at the end of the month. We'll see.

Seriously, what does low self esteem have to do with anything? I'm dying to know.

I don't know about the self esteem thing. Not an issue for me either. I think some of the thinking is that substance abuse can hide many other issues but as you know, that's different than substance use. Weed is a good relaxer if used in moderation and at the right time. I'm 48 and have smoked since I was a teenager though I would strongly discourage any one who is immature and/or not fully developed physically and mentally to use any recreational drugs as they can and do effect the maturation process and decision making skills. I know that I should not have done all the drugs that I did from 12 to 23 or so. I probably would have turned out different if I had stayed clean. I only smoke weed now... no more of the real destructive stuff in over 20 years and no alcohol for a long time too. But an adult who works hard and does does not want the many negative effects of alcohol... puff away when relaxing at the end of a hard day.

I concur. I am smoking for self-medication reasons. It has nothing to do with low esteem though. Point out the hottest girl you can find, and I'm right there working my angles, well on my way to getting shut down....actually to keep with the non-low self esteem vibe I'll concede that I never really think I'll get shut down these days and it wouldn't hurt me if I did. So there. I don't even care if it's true, just by convincing myself of it I'm good to go. In my mind, there is no greater threat to the female population. HI PULL MY FINGER. Who's got an ego now? This guy, that's who.

Dude, I'd be all over it. And then I'd go off and introduce myself to every pretty girl in your gym cause I'm a complete jackass like that and I'm totally in that mood right now - you might get at least a good laugh or two out of it too when I go after the ones who are like WHO THE FUCK IS THIS WEIRDO and rebuff me before I even get 5 feet from em. It'd keep me entertained for a couple hours though. One of the few percs of bouncing - eventually I clued in I was being paid $10 an hour to get punched at so was like fuck this, I WORK FOR NATE. Nah, I was good at my job when I thought it was merited.
