I'm quiting the herb

I called my sister and told her to bring mom and meet me at my house after work today. My sis thinks I'm calling some intervention shit. Within 2 minutes my mom was calling asking what was going on. LOL
I'm just gonna give em all my pipes, my volcano, bongs, grinders and all that shit. Split up my bud between them also.
I've been getting too acquainted with my couch and have been late to work a lot lately. Just turned 25 and all my old smoking buddies have moved off, got married or are in jail.
Time to move on.

it's day 33 for me, I quit for the same reasons, just wasn't enjoying anything about it anymore, and I don't miss it one bit.

I've smoked since I was 12-13 and have quit several times for different reasons. I'm just burnt out on it. My tolerance is up so high that all I really get are the negatives now. I just find it excluding me from things I would rather be doing.
Just ready for new goals that don't revolve around getting high.
Congrats on your success, Adom.

While I admire your resolve, I think it's a waste of a perfectly good volcano.
Anyway, good luck.

I've been wanting to cut down on weed for a while now. Ideally, I'd want to smoke once a month or every full moon - something separate from my daily activities. It hasn't happened though, and while I sometimes put it on my friends being wrapped up (maybe rolled up is a better term) in the marijuana too, ultimately I know that I am the one that inhales.
I'll start today.

I quit pot 12 months ago after smoking everyday for 5 - 6 years.
I think for most people you just have to realise that it was a fun time in your life and now it's time to move on... the large majority of people seem to get negative effects from smoking after smoking for a while.
Smoking when you were a kid/young was THE SHIT! Sooo much fun... it just sucks now

Quit cold turkey, even with tobacco addiction included (I smoke it 50/50) it only bad for 2 - 3 days... slightly irritable for another 2 - 3 and after a full week your head is clear and you're fine

There are a few marijuana success stories amongst my friends (got a good job and still puff every once in a while, etc..) but the vast majority of people I know who kept smoking ended up riding the couch, doing nothing, and living the stoner lifestyle. I can't help but be somewhat biased against weed because of that.

Exactly. I am thoroughly glad that I was a pothead from the ages of 16-19. I had a great time and wouldn't trade my past recreational drug use for anything. But, it started to suck and I noticed that all of my smoking buddies were fucking losers. The lifestyle just blows too (at least where I'm from). People always fiending for bags and wondering where the dank is. People buying weed before they pay their bills. People mooching money to get weed. It's not as bad as the junkie lifestyle but I find it distasteful nonetheless.

I've been through my whole pothead stage, but I still dearly love weed.
I think it's more about moderation for some people. Yeah, smoking all the time really won't help your life out. And weed also loses its fun if your stoned 24/7. But a few times a week seems to actually help my life and I still very high.
Goodluck though.

i stay stoned and am still highly productive (i consider myself extremely successful for my stage in life)... but i feel like i could be MORE productive if i just quit being high 24/7 (which i am).
i think it would be opportune for me to not smoke until night (~8pm/9pm) but i just find myself bored with nothing to do but smoke at like 2pm.
i need a hobby other than smoking, hahaha
