I have no intention of stopping..
or announcing that I am quitting

I am lucky that I can take breaks whenever I want...
but outright quitting is nonsense
what happens when your with some friends and they break out a J...It smells really good,,,you feel like getting high..and you say to your friend "hey, lemme get a hit off of that" and he says "I thought you quit" .
You look just like every other idiot trying to quit something...ALL TALK and NO ACTION.

but, on the other hand..you keep it to yourself...dont smoke...only if you really want to..and nobody is the wiser...if the joint comes to you and you dont feel like hitting it..you just say " Naw, I am good" and it is just that...their thinking..cool...more for me..HAHAHAHA

Forgive me, I am NOT stoned at the moment so my head is going faster than the speed of sound right now.

I quit smoking after a good 6 years of fiending. I spent a year and a half sober, no drinking or smoking. Then I slowely came back to it and from my quiting I believe I gained a new appreciation and understanding. I learned what I liked and what i didn't, when is a good time to smoke and when it makes no sense. I quit for the same reason you did and I totally understand. My consumption now is nowhere near when I quit.

idk y but that came out sounding like Joe Dirt and it was fucking hilarious

I quit smoking, I just vape now.

I'm afraid to say I'm getting in a similar boat myself.

I can't let anything stand in my way no more :)

I've been straight for a while, but of course I'm kicking off this summer with a good friend having a big old blast, smoking a quarter in 15 minutes just like we did last year! Hell Yea!!! :jointsmile:

Same here. I've changed my ideas on when and why I smoke, and who I smoke with. I dropped it for three or four months this year, and now I'm getting back into it - being straight-edge and completely healthy seemed like a great idea at the start, but it did end up being pretty boring. Small towns with no friends suck. I can't wait to move to the city.

Every time I get high I don't like the feeling at all, and I've taken 2 week and even 6 week breaks, but it's always the same lousy feeling when I toke again. It doesn't help for pain anymore, and for some reason even makes the pain worse when I get higher than a mild buzz. So I've quit entirely, and don't plan on starting again. I haven't sworn it off for all eternity, I just think in the distant future it'll be something I indulge in once or twice a year on a special occasion. Hopefully by then my tolerance really would be back to zero and the "magic" would be back. Because seriously, it was more magical and amazing and outright psychadelic than any substance I've ever experienced (and I've been around the block). Wish I could go into details, but ah well.

Also, I can confidently say that the so called "addiction" claimed by prohibitionists is nonsense. 2 1/2 years of smoking, heavily, and I don't have any sort of withdrawl of any kind. Not the slightest desire or need to smoke again, lol.

Anyway, that was a nice 2 1/2 year chapter in my life, time to start the next one. I'll still hang with all my good friends here of course :) .

Anybody else in the same boat?
