for the past 15 years I have not gone 1 day without smoking several marajuana joints a day.I had severe anxiety and I felt it helped cope with this.I felt it made me better around people and several other things...work better cook better drive better.although my tasted great I never had a bad driving record and I have been employed in customer service for 15 years later in life I thought about it night and day.I couldnt sleep at night.I couldnt do anything unless I smoked marajuana first.I couldnt do anything unless I was high.I ended a 18 year abusive relationship and months later met a wonderful man.I noticed when we were together I didnt think about getting high as much.I was high on life we were out doing things seeing things.I had been in the house smoking dope half my life and it was a new world I was seeing.a few months into dating him I would say...I need to smoke a joint or wow I havent smoked in 4 hours thats a long time for me...and he would say,you dont need that honey. I talked to my doctor finally while I was getting a zoloft perscription and said I smoke marajuana everyday and have for 15 years. she says...you should stop cause it makes you not be able to cope....huh??I needed it to cope...what was she talking about. then I got into some financial hardships and it was right there...I couldnt afford it.even if I could get some or snoke with a friend it wouldnt be enough.I had a very high tolerance very very high.I have been drug free almost 51 days.I did smoke 2 times during that time after I hit 39 days but I just wanted to see how my body reacted to it and see if I could continur my sobriety.I have continued to not smoke weed and I feel great. I watched a movie with out being high and it was so weird for me.its crazy how you think something is helping and it realy isnt.I hope this will help someone.It was hard the 1st 3 days but after that I didnt want to do it just because it was so tough.I walked alot and excersized I think sweating helped to detox me.I was drinking alot of water also....good luck everyone.

Miss inexperienced,
Thank you for sharing your story with us. We are all very proud that you decided to quit smoking marijuana and happy to hear that you are now in a happy and healthy relationship.
Glad to see that you realized on your very own that drugs are NOT something that make you see clear, instead they inhibit the possibility of clarity in your life.
Good luck on your journey,
Rosa
