it seems like most people are missing the point. im in the same situation as you. heavy smoker who wants to ween his way off a little to save more.. im also like you. i dont want to replace my addiction to pot with alcohol. right now im on day 13 of not smoking pot. after the first week it gets A LOT easier. through that first hellish week i tried lots of stuff.. i tried meditating, playing video games, also i have been reading a lot. whether its online, magazines, or a book. i would say reading is the best way to get your mind off of it. exercise is another great alternative.. im trying to get myself to do this, but i cant seem to find the motivation. if you have any friends that dont smoke, hang out with them. just remember that the boredom is all in your head. its not going to kill ya, only make you stronger
