Two weeks! When will the arrests start? Hebrews 12:1 "Let us run the race that is laid out before us." Start winning, even if it's only yourself! Me, I'm day 23 sober today—I've thrown alcohol in GITMO. Trust in God. And believe in yourself. We struggle together, and WE WILL WIN, TO GET HER!

I'm 11 days sober from being a functional weedaholic. I'm 46 now, I started smoking at age 40 to deal with a divorce. I had no idea the negative impact it had on me until I quit. I was at the point where it's the only thing I wanted to do in my free time.
Good luck and congrats to everyone else here that's fighting their own demons and winning
I'm glad you're able to step away from a negative habit you recognized in yourself. Sometimes being sober can be a very good thing, to not be beholden to a substance, and to view life through an accurate lens. I still smoke honestly, and I think your down vote is from some people who want to defend weed. But the bottom line is that if a substance is negatively affecting your life, you should fix that somehow. Weed can definitely be psychologically addictive and it can become a crutch if you're not careful. I'm glad you're working on improving you and how you function in life though.
Thanks for the kind words. I don't judge anyone for what they do. I had a need for it back then because alcoholism runs in my family and I'm against prescription drugs for the most part. I realized it's not so much alcoholism though, it's addiction in general that I have issues with. I still say it's better for treating depression and anxiety for most, just not people like me that used it as a total escape from reality and a crutch. Keep on smoking, just have the ability to step back and self analyze occasionally.
