Soooo, I decided to go on a tolerance break. It's been a little better than 2 weeks now and I miss it . . . :(
My target is to stay off it for 6 weeks. I figure that should really do the trick. I know my tolerance has already been lowered after 2 weeks, but I also want to prove to myself that I can go 6 weeks without. I've been a little surprised at how difficult it was to do this. Maybe cannabis has more of a hold on me than I thought? Got weak in the knees a few days ago and almost toked up, but I'm going to do this thing.
Side effects were negligible. For the first couple of days, I felt a little out of sorts and was pretty dang irritable. (acting like an a-hole is the way my wife put it) :D
I do find that I'm more patient and tolerant when I'm toking full-time. If I've been short or acted like an a-hole to anyone lately, I apologize.
Now, someone hijack this thread . . . :thumbsup:
