ive smoked alot and had to quit. i did it cold turkey, no cheating. it was hard, really hard. at the time it was who i was, my name is High and found out the meaning. imo the best time of my life but i can hardly remember SHIT from it. feels like so long ago, havent recalled many events scince they happened so not much stuck, bummer. (off track DANM im rarely this stoned!!)
once you stop from alot of bud you feel this weight or veil being released and this feeling is like reverse stoned, actually feels ok.
i got though it and wasnt tempted for a few years. once i got my gf to smoke some bowls i ended up starting again, a supposed risk at the time. all lies.
i noticed no negative change, but im not a pussy and i can handle my emotions and urges. i know alot, maybe all, would feel something different.
