Just watch out for the devil weed. You can OD and DIE!

You must find it hard at weekends when people have a drink and that.

What convinced you to stop Bro !

God bless ya, will say a prayer for you tonight. Keep it up!

I noticed that when I stay sober long enough, you're a lot smarter. Unfortunately, my wife makes me drink every day.

and they say pot is harmful and addictive, yet more addictive substances get a government seal of approval and rake in the big bucks in prescription form.

"We should" would probably be better.

No. It means that you are disociated. You are perceiveng yourself as 'someone else', until you integrate the experience of being sober and you can say "I am soober" instead of "you are sober".

Etc. erc Etc ?

First off I want to say congratulations!
I watched my mother struggle with alcohol and when she finally beat it we were all better off. She was sober 10 years before she died!

Secondly, I am going to be quitting smoking this afternoon when my e cigarette arrives. I can't believe one could hate something so much but continue to do it and spend money on it!?? Just waiting for the mail lady and I'm done.

I read many are able to quit with these devices.

BTW beware of Addiction transference if you get addicted to coffee not so bad but if gambling a whole new problem starts.

I tend to "relapse" now and again, but its mainly due to giving into the "peer-pressure" of conforming the sheeple ways. Rather than the alcohol itself.
This weekend I only had about 2 bottles of watered down rubbish in my own company. I just dont see the appeal of "binge drinking" every friday/saturday night. Then a few pints on Wednesday to watch the football. Its just a waste of cash to me.
I prefer one or two every month, just to take that off that "edge."

Everyone has a story of someone they know with a drinking problem EVERYONE!

But hey we cant go around and stop putting people in jail for weed, that would tear the fabric of the nation apart.

Congrats man.

i'm on day 16 myself. i'm not trying to quit forever. i just needed a break from alcohol. friday, i said to myself wtf why not i think i'll go get a bottle.. then i said, if i do that, i will feel like shit tomorrow. and i feel great right now, so why go and fuck that up?

but it's nothing like what you're struggling with... i don't want to try to throw my hat in on what you're experiencing..

i just love to drink. i think it's awesome. but just like everything, if you do it everyday, it loses it's awesome to some degree.

especially drinking.

i don't find that as much with ganja. boy i LOVE me some ganja. hmmmm maybe that's why not drinking isn't so bad....
