From what I have experienced when taking an extended break, an initial onset of depression can be pretty normal. For the reasons that were stated previously. You liked getting high, it made things more excting. Without being high, things seem kinda boring at first. And in the case for some, you might not be interested in this things you did high while sober so it takes a while to find new hobbies and habits to occupy your time while sober. I went through about a month of solid depression after quitting smoking, from smoking just about daily. I was just bored a lot of the time, and during the winter there isn't much to do around here, so I had time to just sit and think and mull over things, I didnt really even have an interest in writing music or playing my instruments. I think another part of that though was cause my best friend who I used to smoke with like everyday, and chill with all the time moved away for school, and being sober and not having a friend to relate to about it sucked. I think after a while though your body and mind get used to being sober, and it becomes a lot easier...

I've been staying sober since New Year's cause of school. I plan to indulge a bit this weekend cause it's spring break and my buddy is back in town, so were gonna roll a couple J's and go hit the town like old times. But then I'm back to being sober until I'm finished with school for the summer. Then I'll let myself indulge cause I'll just be workin' more so I can afford it and in my downtime I'll probably need a good bowl every now and then.
