I have been smoking for far too long. Have stopped for a while many times, and each time I become more focused and better able to attain my goals. I am ready to be done with this and get on with the next chapter of my life. I wish I could use it occasionally, but that just doesn’t work for me and I have to be honest about it and stop using 100%. I am going to step it up.

How I did it: - Prayed a lot- Talked with others - discussed my problem specifically- went to MA meetings - I don't know if they have this everywhere - they do in NY - I know AA and NA are much more prominent and focus in the same realm - but it really helped me the first couple of days trying to stay clean going religiously to these meetings. It gave me a way to stay occupied and focused on what I felt I needed to resolve while connect… Read how I did it…

time to quit now. you’ve had a good life with the pot but now its time to stop so quit day is going to be today or tomorrow. im going to have to throw away some weed but thats ok.
jlh9402 Will have a great week!!
So let’s see, I’ve been smoking pot off and on for 16 years. I quit once while in college for two years, only hitting a joint maybe twice in that time. I remember I felt great, got excellent grades and had no trouble remembering anything. After school was over, I must have gotten bored again and started smoking regularly. I am now married and my husband does not smoke. He says he doesn’t mind that I do because I only take a hit or two in the evenings. Which is true, but I am realizing that I don’t go an evening without a hit or two. I hit the closet (where my stash lives)almost the moment I walk in the door from work. So, what I want is to enjoy my time not stoned, or buzzed in any capacity. I want to experience every day with a clear mind. I know it may be difficult to do, but I’ve done it before. So here goes….........
this is my 1st time on this website i hope it helps, i’ve read what others have written and i think it’s interesting because i also have a pot habit and know now i am not alone. it is just a bad habit with me i like the smell and the taste but have been doing it so long now out of blunts may i add i don’t really get high i can function and get work done everyday and take care of errands and it doesn’t effect me at all. it’s like smoking a cigarette to me but you just get a little buzz with it.so i’ve came to realize doing this for 12 yrs it could defenitley hurt my health so i have to come up with a plan on how to quit. anybody got any ideas, i mean good tips like where do you began!

I’m at a crossroads in my life. I need to make a decision, eventually. I know I want to get better. I know this will have to change – if I really do want to get better… and I do.

It has been over a week since my last entry and I feel stronger than ever. I have not slipped nor have I been tempted. I don’t even feel tempted anymore. I have gone this long and there is no way I am going back. I am hesitant to say this but I really feel like I have kicked it.

Tonight will be a challenge. I going out to dinner with my husband who will no doubt light up in front of me. Prett fucking sad that my peer pressure comes from the man who loves me the most. I don’t blame him though he has his own addiction demons.

Day 7 was a sucess.
I am so proud of myself for staying strong. I still think of it quite often especially when I am home doing mundane things like cleaning. I don’t feel as tempted as I thought I would though. I have come this far I don’t want to have start all over again. I feel that there has been a shift in my willpower. I am stronger and more aware of who I really am. I like this feeling. I feel empowered like I can take on the world and I will. Nursing school starts in 2 weeks and I can’t wait!

I just drove 15 miles, by myself, in a car full of pot. Probably not the smartest thing to do had I been pulled over BUT I was only tempted a wee bit. I stayed strong and DID NOT SMOKE. Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!

feeling good. Going to try and get organized today.
I am hoping that my serious dis-organization was a direct result of being stoned 24/7.
