Hi all
Im finally doing it with the help of my life coach! i am priortising my life! and getting clean. I feel ok though the first week i felt a bit lost, its something i normally did in the evenings after i finished work!
I noticed my memory is a bit rubbish sometimes, like my short term memory. I have had two periods this month, and i am sure weed doesnt help with hormonones! My aim to be happy naturally. I am still smoking rollies (tobacco) which is fine for a while!
Started on the June 10th and im keeping on track! i am more head strong now, even looking for a better paid job! we have to believe we can get better. Have said to my partner that no more is allowed in the house! xx

The first few days, I would say 3-4 were hard.Before I quit I smoked every day all day for about 11 years. There were 2 times in the 11 year period where I couldn't smoke for 2-3 days. But that was because I was forced and I would count the hours until I got back to my house.
So day 1-3 I had no idea how to live life without weed. I couldn't eat, sleep, anything. That part wasn't too bad. It was when I would be sitting around not doing anything and reach for the bowl/joint out of habit.
That went away. My appetite came back and i am sleeping fine now.
I have never felt better, that i can remember. I used to get migraines 8-10 times a month and I haven't had one, yet. I also feel like I can do anything I want. Before, my activities were limited to if I could smoke there, if I could find smoke where I am going, or how long before I can smoke next. I cannot describe the freeing feeling I have.
I went over to the neighbors house down the road and they were even passing a joint around and I had no problem no smoking. I have been over a few times and they were smoking/started smoking and I did have the urge to hit the j.. But the feeling I had upon my return home after I exercised the will power I didn't think I had is better than any high I have ever experienced.
I have, however, smoked about 10 cigarettes. I really wish I could say I have not, but honesty is the key to this process. I hope I can cut those out also before I return home. But for now, one thing at the time.
I am so glad I quit smoking weed. Even if it was just 11 days ago. I can say I have seen all positive effects and even feel better about myself as a person.
It's great to see you back in the forum and good for you for getting serious about quitting. Courtss, bravo to to you too.
To both of you I would say, please stay very focused on "working" your sobriety - read inspirational books, go to online MA meetings, find new activities tha you don't associate with smoking.
Addictions can be very sneaky and pop back up reminding us how "wonderful" they were. There are YOUR lives, not your addictions!
Go strong women!
