Stopping smoking weed (for a few weeks)

Okies,

need your help here y'all. I've decided from today onwards, I'm not going to smoke any weed (i don't smoke cigs or owt) until 22nd June (when a few of the A2's finish their exams.)

I've been smoking daily for nearly a year? Although over holidays (e.g. exam leave and half term) i seem to be alot more stoned all of the time.

It's quite a spur of the moment decision i feel alright about it atm though. I'm sure i'll regret it soon.

It's for a few reasons:
- My head is feeling pretty blagged atm.
- I'm pretty skint and could do with saving some money, or at least not spending it on weed
- A special friend is also stopping until after her exams, so I hope it'll make it easier and less tempting for her.
- To prove to myself I'm not overly reliant on weed
- To see if I feel much different, maybe even consider permanently cutting down (not permantently stopping)
- I think i may have bodged up my exams, i still have 2 subjects worth of exams later this week, so maybe i can do alright with them (I'm aiming for an E in math, that's my only target. But i'd like a B in theater)
- I wouldn't mind seeing how i deal without weed. Will be interesting. a large portion of my free time is spent stoned, getting stoned or something similar.

If you hang around with me lots, don't offer me any drugs of any kind, and if i'm buying any, don't let me have any myself or anything. If you see me about to smoke or something, i give you permission to come take it out of my hand and take it for me (but be prepared to run)

There is however, one exception. I'm allowed to smoke a parties and prearranged gatherings of more than a few people. That mainly because i wanna be able to party hard when i finish my exams this weekend.

I'm starting to regret this just as my night time spliff would be getting skinned up about now. Erm yeah. hopefully i'll achieve something by this.

HELP PLEASE

Cheers

p.s. 22nd im getting absoloubtly stoned out my face "that goes without saying"

p.p.s. sorry to people who i normally get stoned with, and other people who are just starting. i'll be back soon enough:)



Copy of the bulletin i posted on myspace. Wish me luck:)

good decision mate

good luck with your exams!

Just stay determined, I did it before and its not too hard.

Then again I normally only allow myself to toke once a week anyway ;)

argh i dont like this at all. ive been 25 hours with drugs and everything has lost its happy edge to it.

last week i was loving life soooo much and tonight it seems soo much more complex and nasty.

A friend of mine is doing the same, he smoked more than me and has beeen clean for 3 days. he said he feels like tmorow will be the turning point for him as he feels pretty miserable to, but after tmoz he thinks he'll be alright.

only another 3 days for me until my turning point then! this is going to be a horrible few days lol.

but on the plus side, i did more revising today then i've done in my entire life combined, and that's actually no joke.

I know how you feel, man. I just took a 2 week break, after deciding to do so, and now I'm back to smoking occasionally. It really helped with me cutting down a bit. I had been smoking a lot, and I mean a lot, for quite some time. I was running out of cash, and several other reasons (basically the same as yours).

The first couple days are the hardest, trust me. You just have to stay determined and realize that cannabis should not control your life. A nice, long break will straighten you up and maybe even make you feel a little better in general. Be strong. There is so much more to life than weed. You know that's true...sometimes it just takes a couple days of sobriety to really get it through your head.

You'll be fine, mate.

i do the same thing all the time.. i go off and on with my smoking but right now i think im almost to an end also for awhile.. my stash is almost gone probably about 4 good size bowls left...its called the green zipper ever hear of it? i haven't..

My Dope dealer went on vacation which gives me a chance to break my tolerance down. so im taking a break its only 1 week should be easy, good luck 2 you.:thumbsup:

man up. end of discussion.

Anyways, good luck man, and just think how low your tolerance will be once you start smoking again. Also, good for you for supporting your friend. That takes some real heart.

I'm taking a three day break till saturday morning. Although I might find other "ways" of getting a buzz or high lol jk.


But yeah it sucks. Hopefully it won't be too bad.



I just hate soberness though. I am constantly worried about how people will think of me, am a complete dork, and nothing interests me or excites me when i'm sober and also i get angry and cranky at any little thing i hate doing.
