i smoked for the first time in 4 years 4 years ago and literally remember immediately why i quit. I seriously wanted to sit in a corner by myself for the remainder of the night and just be in a ball. I don't know how people smoke, as if I wanted to be antisocial and suicidal, It would be cheaper just to think of things that make me sad...not pay $20 a gram....

word, word, and double-word. i quit about 3 years ago, and i've tried 2 or 3 times since then and i always regret it. the potency of even mid-grade stuff at this point knocks me out with one hit, which is too bad. some of the best times i had smoking were in high school, driving around in cars, each with our own j of brown mexican trash, and just catching a nice light buzz.

i feel like the only way i could smoke green now is if someone sold me leaves...

now you know how long i've really been out of the game. I don't recall prices at all. maybe $30 for 1/4 of garbage and $60 for 1/8 of good stuff. I don't remember....

man, I wish i was a recreational man, but I just couldnt smoke only on the weekend, not a chance. Im still way tempted when im not busy, but I forget the months or longer where I smoked too much out of frustration out of not being able to quit!!

Carls so right, if you smoke recreationally on occasions where it feels right you will get far more pleasure out of it than if you smoke "recreationally" every morning! Thats the healthy way to do it if you can imo.

quitting has probably lost me friends, sigh.

How I quit smoking

by Thorns

One fine evening after leaving a frat party I was extremely drunk. It was during a time that I was pledging and had been forced/gleefully enjoyed a vast quantity of unknown liquor. I proceeded to go over to a buddy's house where he had the most incredible marijuana smoking contraption I had ever seen. It consisted of a tube about 6 feet high that one filled with smoke by standing on a box (if you're my height) and then you suck in as hard as possible and a plug is pulled collapsing the tube and shoving more smoke into a body than should ever be consumed. I'm sure some of you have similar experiences. I'd been smoking for years. Figured it would be no big deal. I was wrong. I tripped. Hard. I can remember staring at my hand and watching it get huge and fill up my vision and then freak out cause it got really small and I thought my hand was gonna disappear. I then vomited for hours.

The next day I tried smoking again. As soon as the bud was lit and the smell got to my nose I puked all over the place. To this day I can't smoke. I've tried and everytime I get close, my stomach turns and I run to the toilet. I look back on that night as both the stupidest and smartest thing I've ever done.

i think that is the toughest part about quitting. i don't know how to tell my "man" to stop picking up for me. and i'm not sure what i will do w/ my friends when they visit. ummmm... drink?

yeah, its awkward, and despite how great people can be and friends are etc etc when your sober and everyone else is wasted it can get annoying and boring...

haha, i remember one thing that really pissed me off was for over 6 months people were passing j's to me and I kept saying "no ive quit, remember"

I went down to santa barbara for the 27th-29th. (fri. Sat. Sun.) We had to park about 3 miles away from Islavista(The party part of the town)

We caught the buss and fallowed a gaggle of asains in costume . We got off at the same stop as them and fallowed them in to a aparment building where they procuded in to a house. We asked them witch way to the big party and he pointed us twords the back parking lot. We went all through the parking lot a came across a small gate witch i attempted to climb immeadiatly. Turns out it was coverd in some weird puddy shit that made my hands really hott. I washed them in the first water spikkit i found. We had to walk all the way back through the apartment. But we fianly made it to the party part of town

I got smashed and had a good time fridaynight. I ran behind the breagade of cops on horses and acted like i was riding a horse and a cop ran up and grabbed me and said "Do you wanna get arrested to night" I replyed "Not tonight, maybe tomarrow"

The cop yelled "Stoooooppididy must run in your family!" and i yelled "FUCK YOU" and ran in to the crowed. We called it a nigth after that. But we couldn't walk directly to the car , because thats where the cops were. So we walked a round about way to the car witch took about 45 minuts. And we all passed out in 2 small cars. (There were 7 of us)

Im going to skip most of the saturday day. Baiscly we just got smashed and talked to people. When saturday night came around, we busted out a half gallon of cheap plastic bottle rum, and a bottle of wine some one gave us earlyer in the day. We killed that Me and Nico (-meta-) drank the most seeing that it was his birthday on the 28th(saturday) and mine the coming day sunday the 29th. We went in to some weird house and i panted some shirts for people and had a few beers and my friend stole a chicken breast from there grill. He handed it to me for me to take a bite and i droped it. I picked it up and took a bite anyways. It was coverd in dirt. It felt like i was chewing rocks, but we just turned it inside out and ate the insides.

We came across a party with beer pong going on in the garage, so we all go in, drink some beers and talk to the guys. One of my friends jason taps me on the shoulder and is like lets go. As im leaving a spy a full fifth of jaggermister on the table , i grab it and stick it in my crotch, as i see all my friends are stealing scoooters from the house so we all run/scoot away. I guess some time passed between that and the next event i remeber . But next thing i know, im in cuffs walking up the street with 2 cops on itherside of me. My offical arrest time was at 11:30 . The next thing i remeber Im sitting down talking to some preacher cop chained to some other people. Affter told i was sinning repatedly they load us in to a van and take us on to the jail. On the way im chained next to a guy dressed as superman. (Im dressed as a bee) . We all start singing random ass songs in the van. Next thing i know im in the drunk tank sitting next to super man(I found out later his name is colin) . I guess we got finger printed and mugg shots takiing at some point befor we got put in. . There was probly about 150 people in this 50x50 ft box concreet box with 25ft high walls and only a chain link fence for a roof. It was freezing. After sitting talking to colin for a bit , i relize its my birthday. And make an announcment , every one instanly broke in to song singing me happy birthday. Then we got peanut butter sandwitches and milk (fatfree) i used my peanutbutter sandwitch as a pillow and gave me milk to super man. He drank probly 15 cartons of milk. Then we relize "Steve Irwin" is in the building , and there is a godzooki (Godzilla's son). We instagate a wrestling match between them. godzooki really didn't want to wrestle so it was mostly steve throwing him on the ground.

Then i see a man dressed as tarzan go punch a footlocker refferee in the face. and they start to fight. For a while nothing really happend and i was released at 7:30 am. and issued a court date on decemeber 5th in santa barbara(I live in oakland CA.). When i get out of jail to the lobby area i see nico(-meta-) asleep on the ground. I wake him gently from his sleep and he gets up happy to see me , and goes "You ready to go home" and smiles.

Thats my super confesional about how i spent my birthday in jail.

P.S. Superman (colin) is nico(-meta-)'s freind in college gabe's best friend growing up. Now i get to party with him. It's a small world

just to echo what everyone else is saying. getting stoned once in a while is definately better. one hit of swag and im gooood.

i have always preferred pot to alcohol. it doesnt make me antisocial so much unless im baked which i seldom get.

i dont even drink anymore.

shit im old.

dplay - nice story dude, it got funny towards the end.

i rarely smoke these days. i started when i was 13, and used to smoke quite a bit from then until i was 21 or so. there was a couple of years when it was anywhere between 3-4 times a week up to 1 or more times daily, and mostly when i was alone - every night before bed, that sort of thing. now, its a rarity, and when i do, its usually with friends after a night out.

i find it slows me down too much. most of the time i enjoy it, but ill occasionally get really paranoid, and painfully self conscious. its tending to bring out my depression and anxiety more and more, which is something it never used to do.

i find i can (or at least i think i could) probably smoke daily if certain things are satisfied - ie. i am fit, happy, working, keeping busy, relationships going well etc etc. but if im not, my insecurities and fears tend to get amplified by the smoke.

im glad its an occasional thing for me now. i dont miss it, and for the most part, i enjoy it that much more when i do smoke.

hm...i feel guilty. i turned my cousin into a pothead in a matter of one month. i smoked him out in the summer just because he said yes. he was tired of the jokes i guess. well yeah...from that night on...it became a nightly thing for us. i was cool with it..but yeah...the same thing over and over. hit up two bowls. drive around for a couple of hours. sit in the car because were too afraid to get out. get scared and shit.

it all got boring. i quit...but he fell in love with the weed. i always told him... 80% relaxation 20% trips....but its the other way around for him. but he tries to justify saying that he smokes to relax jsut a little bit. i got mad at him when he bought his piece last week, but i didnt hesitate to use it with him. mixed messages i know.

i dont know....its weird. i wanna tell him to slow down...but i know he wont. hes on some "im older than you ..wahtever" type mentality...but ive experienced way more than him when it comes to things like that. but he doesnt care.....its his life.

i dont know whether to feel guilty or what...at least its just weed and nothing serious.

but yeah...ive slowed down alot. went from a nightly thing...to 2-3 times a week. usually after classes to sit at home relax. i actually find it fun to go to borders and read while im high.

based on experience, that's something he'll have to learn himself. if you are seriously concerned about it, tell him once seriously that you don't agree with his level of usage, and if he's cool, he'll respect that. Past that, I wouldn't mention it again, because you're just going to come off as nagging/annoying and that creates a shitty guilt dynamic that you don't want to create between friends (or family in this case). Hassling someone about their drug use just makes them lie about it (this comes from personal experience on both sides of the "you need to slow down" lecture)

hmm...thanks. i think im just gonna have to mention it one more time and leave it at that.

good advice though. i didnt wanna say anything cuz he basically copied me on everythign about smoking. he was all trying to learn the lingo and shit. i knew he got to a bad stage when he started getting exicted about picking up and emptying his bank accoutn for that one last sack.

he tried to tell me the difference between differnt types of weed as if he knew more than me. not to come off arrogant...but wtf...i already know. come on.

yeah....well...hopefully he learns before he fucks something up.

yeah, at the end of the day, he might stop listening to you. Dont feel his smoking is your responsibility, he has free will, thats why he chose to start - ignore you - stop - whatever, he has the choice so dont beat yourself up about it. You cant force anyone to start or stop.

hmm...well i remember seeing my friend in high school just throw his life away.

went from being an eagle scout and attending church weekly( even involved in the youth groups)...to having a baby at 20 years old with no place to live. im pretty sure he was hooked on everything.

he got kicked out oif his house cuz he had buyers knocking at his door at 3am lookin for weed, E, coke...whatever.

im sure my cousin wont get anywhere near that level...he doesnt have the resources...its just...hes lagged enough in life. the way things are right now....it looks liek im gonna get out of community college before he does. so yeah...i dont know...

i wanna smoke.

i think im gonna have to quit smoking cigarettes if proposition 86 overe here in CA gets passed. a pack is gonna cost like 7 bucks. hopefully a lot of voters smoke and vote no on it.

saying that...i didnt even register to vote. i keep thinking my vote wont matter and that i dont want jury duty. but yeah...anyway.....im an idiot.
