I don't think that sounds pathetic at all. We all here apparently have come to know weed as a way to stay balanced, as opposed to taking fistfulls of valium or whatever.
2 years ago I realized I was smoking waaay too much, so I slowed down my whole lifestyle a lot. Not that I'm telling anyone what to do, but this really works for me. I'll get a half oz, smoke nightly for around 2 weeks (I can control myself in almost any situation, but if I have it I'm smokin it. No matter who's coming over, what's going on or what. It's like just knowing that I have a baggie of sunshine in my closet, I can't sit and watch TV or anything unless I'm HIGH.) I party nightly but then at the end of the couple weeks, I'm getting pretty foggy and usually slacking at work. I know I need to chill out, so anymore when I run out I'm almost glad, kinda like the end of summer at back to school time when you're real young and school doesn't suck that bad yet.
Then I wrap myself up in work and become superman for a few weeks. After usually 2 weeks I get the itch, start looking and 2-3 days later hookup again.
This works well for me for a few reasons. #1 is I used to freak out a little when I was getting low, and dam near panic. I hated that. #2 is now at the end of the month I made pretty good $$ and supported my family, while at the same time still had plenty of late night one man parties, watching funny movies and cooking super omelettes, laying in the dark listening to a classic rock station, whatever. And #3 is, as odd as it may sound, delayed gratification. When I haven't smoked for 2-3 weeks, and finally it works out that I have money and a hookup, maybe just got a lot accomplished in the past few weeks, it is SUCH a thrill knowing what the next 14 or so days hold. And there's the fact that I can stop sometimes and pull up my head, kinda take a look around to see what the hell is going on in the world today. I have to admit, I never did much of that when I was blitzes every single day.
drboomhauer Reviewed by drboomhauer on . What do you all do to keep yourself occupied in times of need/no weed? I tried tobacco... not working... tried salvia... way too intense to replace weed, it's not anything like weed.... tried alchohol, but drinking every day isn't a good idea... maybe I should just grow one plant? I live in an apartment room inside of a Hotel in an inner city area. Does anyone know of any really small/low odour weed plants that will still get me stoned? I want to grow just one for personal use, that won't get me in too much trouble. All of the researching I have done Rating: 5
