My QUITing Journal (2 weeks)

I've been smoking for almost 3 years now pretty much solid. I've done short tolerance breaks before (the longest being 1 month). Anyway, lately when I smoke, I don't get the good experience I used to. Instead of the visuals, 3D vision, and epiphanies... I just end up feeling very tired, a little dizzy and apathetic. Personally, the last three qualities do not mesh well with me anymore. I'm not going to "chase the weed-dragon" hoping to get that incredible high anymore, F*CK it.

Anywho, so I'm starting this two week break to prove that I CAN do it and so I can start enriching other areas of my life that I've started to neglect.

I'll post updates here every few days to force myself to keep not-smoking a priority.
After the two weeks are over, I'll decide whether or not I want to continue or just quit all together.

LET'S DO THIS!:thumbsup:

Awesome, I'll be watching this. I've been chasing the weed dragon as well but just given in... One day I hope to have the willpower you have.

Hope you find what you're looking for.

Keep in mind that after a few months if you decide to toke again you will once again feel incredibly high. But it's totally do-able you will quit no problem it's just you have to figure out what to do after you've accomplished your goal of quitting. We all chase something.

It's true man, everyone has an addiction. Even being sober is an addiction to the mind.

So far easy first day, didn't have to bail from any smoke sessions with friends. Didn't sleep at all last night. Still eating a lot of good nutritious food. I have the urge to rip the RooR, but I'm gonna try and sleep.

Keep at it man and remember, if you do happen to mess up it's no biggie. Just start quitting again.

I do this often and have taken a month or more off. As long as I don't have any attacks of IBS I don't even think about it after a week or so.

Okay 3rd day almost over. Not too bad, I've been really busy with school which has helped distract me and yet make me more stressed due to constant deadlines, worries of making the grade, getting pissed because I have no leisure time and "this isn't fair". I've been getting pissed at people's little annoying ticks that I would usually deal with or totally not care about. Although I haven't snapped at people, I need to chill and relax somehow. Maybe meditation? I'm thinking about starting HoloSync. My iPod ran out of batteries this morning and I didn't have time to charge it, so no music today.

I must say that if it weren't for www.iso-tones.com's "Sleep" tone, I would be a sleep-deprived zombie. Day 4 tomorrow, quarter way through it!

You're a better person than me...

Bud is my prozac :)

Nice work it's always best to keep yourself active while trying to quit for a spell. Theres nothing worse than telling yourself you wanna stop a while and find you've got nothin to do! i gotta get on with my own studies thanks for the reninder!

So today was a pretty decent day, encountered a very difficult teacher I've had before and it really got my temper. I can make a clear distinction when I'm being unco-operative and when someone is specifically _trying_ to get on my nerves for selfish reasons. This was pure selfishery. This teacher wouldn't let it go either, she haunted me all day like a f*cking ghost! With the weekend coming up, I'm have really strong feelings of just having ONE sesh. Not because I have nothing else to do, but because I feel I need a mental "reset" after the hectic week. I'm still considering this, I'm not sure.
