I've quite numerous times, sometimes for weeks, sometimes for months, a couple of times for years. Why did I quit? No earth-shaking reasons, really: got tired of the price a few times, and it just wasn't a big priority at some points in my life.

The main reason I started this last time didn't have a ton to do with me; the woman has some medical conditions that cannabis helps with, and hell, the various medicinal benefits are there for me too. And I am getting older so anything I can do to extend my life, I'll give it a shot. Of course, I do like a good buzz too. Heh.

In my family, 'drugs' are kinda looked down on, and my family basically breaks down into two camps: the drinkers and the tokers. The drinkers look down on the tokers (drugs are bad, m'kay?). The tokers in my family (including me) don't have a ton of problem with the drinkers; they wanna drink, that's their choice. Of the drinkers, three are dead...because of drinking. With the tokers in my family...no problems.
