Nope, didn't blow it. Mood
Tuesday, June 30, 2009 | A General Update story

I wanted to have the little counter on my stop smoking marijuana, so that I didn't have to go back and check my 1st journal entry for the date, and managed to delete all those journals and all your comments and encouragement.  DARN IT!!

 

But, the postive side is, I have 13 days today and it feels so good.  The clarity of mind, the energy, the dreams....I hated not dreaming or remembering the dreams when I was smoking daily.  

 

I'm not going to say it's been easy...I had some withdrawls, like night sweats and night terrors...but for some reason, this time...I have not had the urge.  I did start Welbutrin a few weeks back, to help me quit smoking cigarettes and the Dr. did say it MAY help with the marijuana too, but I am still smoking cigarettes (WAY less though) but I have NO craving for weed.  Even though it's all around me...I don't want it.

 

Maybe I have hit on something here...Welbutrin for stoners??  My thinking is, it is an anti depressant, and some of us smoke weed to improve our mood, or calm us down, so maybe the pilll is filling in those spots that were taken by pot???  Hmm..

 

To those of you that think you can't do it...I say BS...because I have smoke weed for 27 years and have tried to quit before and have even done so a few times.  This time, it's stuck.
