How can somebody live without weed?

I've met older people that used to smoke pot but no longer do. They've been sober for years and years. And I'm wondering how the hell they did that. I can't imagine me not smoking for the rest of my life. Weird..
I know how you feel...how can this be. Well, I stopped after college. Then the militaryand went without weed for 30 plus years. Till last 2 years when I needed it for medical reasons.
It's amazing how someone can just stop. When you really want a different life.
That goes for any drug.

I'm 17 days sober and just hating it, I'm looking for work and hope to test really soon. I tried some pills before and pissed a job opportunity away. I didn't think I would last this long, especially since my gf is still smoking. I know now I never want to quit for good. I did stop once before for 10 yrs and missed it everyday. I am lookin forward to my first smoke when I pass my test. I got some good sativa waiting for me as well as some purp. Sorry for the rambling... started drinking since I can't smoke. Stay high.

I did that with opiates. Twice. Weed's a toddle by comparison. cn

Some people just lose interest in smoking when they get older...or just never tried it enough when they were younger I think...but I know a perfect couple...the woman will never stop but the guy just lost interest, and they are an older couple...some people just don't stick with MJ, or MJ doesn't stick with them...either way...

I might not be able to smoke for the rest of my life =( fucking SUCKS!... I go to the doc tomorrow to see whats up with my heart and hoping that its curable. On the plus side, Im starting my first small guerilla grow of three plants =D Im really stoked. Hopefully Im cured and able to smoke the finished product when harvest time comes, if not then atleast I got some extra cash.

I'm fine with T-breaks. I can take a week off every now and then very easily. I'm just wondering how people could just not smoke weed anymore after they've discovered how great it is.
I agree. As nuts as you guys may think I am I was WAY WORSE before I started smoking. I'd be addcted to codeine like my dad, a drunk, still unable to sleep or eat or do the activities I like because of pain or having a full on breakdown over nothing. The adventures I've had and people I've met through smoking weed... Like the story about the French guy asking to smoke with me randomly that I shared yesterday. You can use pot for everything... Now if only it were legalized all the negative connotations associated with smoking it (crime, bankrupting oneself) would be gone... So many things can and should be appreciated sober, but many things are so much better when you're high...

Sometimes I wonder what it'd be like if everybody in the world just stopped what they were doing for a sec and smoked a joint. "Why were we fighting again?"

I don't know about you guys but I have a tier system for all my tins and baggies of weed, sort of like rationing myself and thinking about what work I have to get through in the week. What strains will be good for this? How much can I spare this week? How much time have I got to smoke? I can have my main tin of weed and baggies/jars stashed in my room and not think about them for months as long as I know it's there. But some people (as they've admitted) can't 'sit on it' for long.

I'm looking forward to going back to school with a fresh course and getting baked, then doing my work quietly in a corner. The lady across the street smokes for anxiety and I'm her garden helper. She's in her 50's- I'm glad she's still going and we have something that crosses the age gap.

I wish I could be like that, for me its about having my cake and eating it to. I like having a stash and I like smoking it, haha. But if I could switch between being dry and having weed that I was holding off on smoking vs having no weed and being dry i'd totally go with the former as theres weed present and can be smoked im just choosing not to sorta thing. Where the latter is I wonder when i'll be able to find weed again, hmmmm.

But everytime I have weed that rationale goes out the window until its all gone and then I'd be wishing I kept some. To smoke. Hahaha. So for me its always about having a supply on hand.

Addicted for sure. Talking on this forum helped today go by though and honestly right now I could care less about smoking, sorta over it. Which makes me think im not as addicted as I think I am.

My neighbors could do without weed. I used to be nice and help them out all the time. Whenever I need help they are, "man, that'd ruin my high!" Assholes. I find lots of people become jerks on weed. It's not all this, "peace and love, dude!"

Maybe it's sativa? I act like Tommy Chong's character. People did more sativa in the 60s? I just get real quiet in indica. I want to do shit, but I feel like I'm drunk. Sativa makes me all loving like I'm on E.

Others I know act depressed. Huh? I'm actually nicer high. Others mostly act like grumpy dipshits in the Politics section.

Its all mentality and attitude.If you take T- breaks you not only excersize willpower but the next toke up will be so good.We can live without it for certain,but do we want to?Hell no!

Nope i wish. Its been a couple years since it started but i only notice it like you said if i don't smoke early in the morning.
could just be a bad ulcer or something like that. ive been that way for the last year. one day it started getting real bad so i went to the ER. $10,000 dollars later they still dont know whats wrong. they gave me some meds and sent me home. and they still want their money but ya right they arent getting a damn penny seeing they didnt actually help in any way. weed works better than their damn meds too.

Damn that sucks, i haven't went to even have a checkup for a few years :( but what meds did they give you? something for heartburn or was it actually for the ulcer?

Man it actually is possible. sobriety is pretty good too. but there ain't nothing like getting burned the fuck out on some good weed :bigjoint:

dicyclomine 20mg its not for an ulcer cause they said they didnt see one. they dont know for sure whats up. i take a acid reducer (zantak) first thing when i get up, smoke right after, smoke throughout the day here and there, and take another acid reducer around 9pm, and smoke again right before bed. thats what i have to do to not get sick. not only does the hospital say they dont know whats wrong, they say everything looks fine....tell you what...i dont feel fine. i only take the dicyclomine if my stomach issues get real bad. since i started smoking for my issues i havent really needed the pill
