If that's what floats your boat... :manny:


Personally I can't see myself permanently giving up alcohol or :smoker:, if nothing else it's just a way to unwind after work.

Never done anything "hard" tho, and have no plans to. :whoa:

Have 8 years, quit a heavy cocaine/alcohol/benzo/weed addiction, from 16-21. It's easier then it seems, and harder at same time, I'm around everything always, no sober friends, no sober relationships….it doesn't phase me like that, like I have little desire to drink a social glass of wine, or a beer, I get that 2 bottles of 151 and hotel suite urge, and have to talk it out of myself.

I only been sober from weed for 2 weeks but it's true what they say, you start having dreams again. Literally EVERY time I sleep I'm having vivid dreams. I'm only 25 and I can say I been a heavy pot head since 12(NOTHING to brag about) and the shyt has caused so many issues in my life. I must say you cannot be a functional father and husband and smoke weed daily. Don't fall into these rappers hype, drugs arent cool at all. I used to be a very impulsive and angry person every time I was lit, and when I was I'm happy, which is foul. Now I am extremely happier and peaceful, and a lot more enlightened.

Haven't drank a beer or a glass of wine, haven't done any drugs, haven't taken a hit of a joint or smoked weed and I've never felt better.

I realized that I was a slave to that feeling of being high. I realized what type of person I was when I was high or drunk...just operating on asic instincts...feeling like a zombie...highly irrational, overtly emotional to the point of being damn near bipolar, focusing on that next high instead of focusing on the the shyt that actually mattered in my life.

I felt like I was running away from my life, my responsibilities, my future, my past, my present.

Now I'm here...fully awake and aware of who I am and where I've been.

I said f*ck it and I'm just going straight edge. I don't need this shyt anymore. I'm finally enjoying this feeling and living with the choices I made and learning why I made those bad decisions. I've gained a new insight on my life and a new sense of purpose.

Don't get me wrong, I ain't knockin that shyt if you like it...but I was smoking weed damn near everyday for the past 13 years, I was doing molly atleast twice every week when I was living in New York...I went hard with the drugs, and now I'm just saying I'm behind that shyt now and it's in my rear view.

I did the same thing. I woke up one morning after being hung over and decided right then to reinvent myself. Went cold turkey. Started running, cycling, meditating, & eating healthy. If your life isn't what you would like it to be then change it and it starts by taking responsibility. Thanks for sharing
