Ever try to quit just to test yourself?

I just stopped a few days ago to test myself & I've been a daily smoker for about 15 years. The only thing I can notice is my sleep pattern is slightly off(harder to fall asleep) & that my depression is more noticeable. I was diagnosed with clinical major depression last year & they tried to put me on all types of different pills which I threw out cause I could feel them messing with my mind & body in negative ways. I use herb as my medicine, but I don't live in an area where it's medically available. I figured now was a good time to stop because I stopped growing a couple of months ago & one of my suppliers just got locked up. I also agree with several of you that moderation is VERY important in everything in life. I do miss smoking though...it really helps me relax & focus on things more clearly. I've been trying lately to separate wants & needs. Our pop culture society makes this very difficult.

That was my only noticeable withdrawal symptom as well... I was antsy for 2 nights, kicking, flinging my arms, twisting and turning until I finally dozed Off.. Nothing like the EAze and Comfort of Drifting Asleep after Blazing.. I don't have any problems Sleeping, but it took my body a couple of Nights to adjust from not having it..... Looks like I'm about to go through it again in the Near future as well... Man this is like going to the Doctor, instead, You get Stressed Knowing you are about to leave the Doctor

there as been a couple times in my life were i needed to stop smoking for a couple months at a time, for jobs and durring an outpatient treatment lol and i did just fine! the longest ive gone without smokein weed not because i had to but just cuz i didnt feel like it was 3 months lol.

I think most all of the drugs outlawed in the US today was done so to prejudice some race or another. And that's it. Bigotry. I we are fooled by the intent of thoughs laws today. Or a lot of people are.
If law and enforcement want respects. Stop percecuting your own people for consenual conduct. Every person can agree murder, theft, anything with malious intent should be protected and our law enforcement should be helped and respected for the risk taken for such crimes. But when your law enforcements main objective it to scrutinise the average joe, looking for something wrong to charge them with. That's fucked.
Regardless, like a little research will implement as well. Many of the consensual crime laws, particually cannabis laws was desinded with bigotry overtones and alway money in mind. Nothing to do with the well being or the saftey of the general public. You think the average corperate giant really cares? or even a high ranking public official, they care? No, they care about getting there job, collect there paycheck and setting things up for thier own profit.

Sorry kinda got on a rant. Oh well back to reality!

Last time I went on a weed sabbatical, I had a dozen jars of the stuff. I would keep one jar on my work desk as a reminder

Absence makes the heart grow fonder.....

i completely agree with you. i like to take breaks too. My friends who never take breaks can smoke as much as a chimney and still barely reach the high they want
