Hey Backdoor, good luck. Of course you're stronger than any drug you use,you just have to believe it.
But from reading your posts,I'm kinda wondering,are you smoking pot to get away from something?To lessen an emotion that you're having?Because it kinda sounds like it may be the case,and since you're going without you ask things like "How do you guys do it?" Are you smoking it in the first place to give yourself "permission" for certain behaviors or activities you're afraid to engage in while sober? Blaming it on the pot, in other words? Do you secretly feel guilt when you are high?
If any of these things are the case,you need to address the issues and solve the problems these issues are creating for you,and not use pot as a crutch to deal with things, nor as an excuse for the state your life is in. This can set you up for psychological addiction.
Many folks use weed to de-stress and relax,or simply to have fun, and that's alright.But if you exclusively use weed as your only means to reduce stress or bad feelings, you need to find other methods of coping.Because it's not the weed doing bad things to you, it's YOU doing bad things to you.
Smoking pot won't solve any problems,and using any drug to escape from your issues is not a good reason to do drugs.
