I have a good job albeit stressful and I work hard, weed was my release but at the same time I found myself spending over 800-1000 per month, it was all that I looked forward to each day, this is by far the hardest thing I have had to do and its driving me insane, nightmares, sweats, cravings, but if I keep smoking I will never own or have anything regardless of what I may earn, I feel for everyone who is trying to achieve this goal, wish I had someone with me to help me through this, makes me sad.

It's been three days since I've smoked up - I stopped a week after finding out that I was pregnant. Even though everything I read says there's no known bad effects, I can't help but think there are... So I made the choice to stop, and I'm absolutely hating it!! :x I've smoked for about 10 years, usually a few times a day, and I don't think I've quit for more than a few two-week stints. Luckily, my husband doesn't smoke (only rarely with me) so he's really supportive, but he doesn't understand that I want to rip his eyes out for just being in my vicinity... I'm internally raging, and I can't tell people why - I have a great job, good life, I'm not a slacker - my addiction was a great risk to my livelihood... I've got to stop!!! I'm just really, REALLY hating this! :evil: I am hateful….

Well, i just spent a little while reading all of your posts and to all those in the process of quitting, good luck...YOU ARE NOT ALONE! Also...Matt...the masters in biochem probably means you do not smoke pot...and when you smoke pot 3+ times a day...and then you quit...there ARE physical side effects... so please keep your negativity to yourself, because until you feel what we are feeling, nothing you say matters... Guys, you can do it...if i can, you can too...and I am on the road. I feel so much better about myself(besides the withdrawal), its such a good feeling when you put your mind to something and you actually do it! Remember, NEVER doubt what you are capable of.. and when you think you can not take it anymore, remind yourself why you quit and what smoking did to you. In the words of my boy al pacino...When the shit hits the fan, some guys run and some guys stay... Well, here we are, facing the fire... it aint easy, but nothing ever is... Something i remind myself to help me when i want to smoke is that I can go through life dwelling on the past and missing being high...but the truth is...there aint no future living in our past... Im here for anyone that needs support, so if need be, lean on me, because i just may need someone to lean on... Good luck and God bless day 4… Well, i just spent a little while reading all of your posts and to all those in the process of quitting, good luck…YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

Thing is, I'll have to live on site in a log cabin with a load of people I don't know, in a new place. Pretty sure I won't be able to smoke up there. I have been feeling a bit down about my smoking habit anyway but I find stopping sooo hard. The minute I get stressed all I can think is "I need a spliff!!" I really want to stop and grab this great opportunity but I'm scared I can't do it. It doesn't help that everyone just thinks I'm a stupid stoner and won't be successful. I start the job in the summer. Any advice? You are all doing sooo great!! Keep it up guys!
