i use to be a heavy smoker 2 years ago. i stopped smoking kinda. only probably smoked 8-9 times in the past 2 years. it'll be 2 years end of this july actually.
So my first trip in AMS this July will be special lol. I plan to be ripped at all times. should be fun to see where my tolerance is right now.
Does anyone ever FAST?

Take it slow mate - your tolerance is probably so low right now - if someone blew some smoke in your direction it may get you buzzing a lil... only you wouldnt know it coz it'll be kinda subtle...
Start of on the landrace strains like Thai or Jamaican, then move on to the heavier strains - leave the indicas for the night time or you wont function - instead - go for some nice sativas through the day, ...
Enjoy your trip man!!! Rock on!

After 17 years of constant tooting I am also beginning to be tied down by my holiday options too bud! It plays such a huge part in my desire to travel (or not) and I used to be so carefree (and fearless)... 
I honestly wish I had the control to take a break every now and again. I am deeply in love with my addiction, (yes i can say it!) and feel secure in the fact it is a lesser of evils for me. Does not mean I envy my mates for their control when taking tooting breaks!
I suppose the trick is to never give up trying.

As much as you like smoking bud, if its limiting your life, its not enhancing your experience, therefore is it worth carrying on with it? Its this type of cannabis use which isnt use but abuse tbh with you man. Im not ragging on you at all, please dont take it that way, but it would be a shame for you to waste your life and potential experiences because of cannabis.happydaze777 wrote:After 17 years of constant tooting I am also beginning to be tied down by my holiday options too bud!

The thing is you have control, cannabis is only pyschological addictive, bothing will happen to your body if you stop. You have to ask yourself if you reallyu want to stop, it seems to me that from you saying you love your ' addiction ' that your happy smoking as much as you do. Untill you decide theres more to the world than weed, you'll never feel able to take a break from it.
The worlds larger than your next joint man. I think you are in control, but un-willing to take control. That step requires responsibilty, and as much as it sucks, responsibilty is something we cant hide from. As much as you smoke a day, theres people that smoke more. Most likely on this forum as well. Dont feel like you cant stop, you can, but you actually have to want to do it.
If its not something you want to do, then thats cool man, if you want to, you can. The beauty of cannabis is comparsion to other drugs is that its not addictive. Not like the evil weed which is tobacco.

Thank you for your thoughts.
I can honestly say I am addicted. I have tried to stop for many years. As I said it is a lesser of evils for me and right now in my life it is a status quo I am happy with. It is not a raging addiction and does not control every aspect of my life. I hold down a very responsible full time job, its just where some colleges might choose to finish their day with a drink, I finish mine with a toot. Any repeated behaviour over a period of years can be addictive…

You may indeed be pyschologicaly addictive, but cannabis is not pyshiologically addictive. I appreciate what your saying, i just think its a shame to limit your life to where you only know you can score.
Comparing yourself to someone who drinks every day may not be the best standard to hold yourself to, afterall, some inject skag every day, your not as bad as them, but does that make your behaviour any better? Just a thought..............

But if the behaviour is no better, then it is as bad. Just a thought.Sir Niall of Essex-sire wrote:some inject skag every day, your not as bad as them, but does that make your behaviour any better? Just a thought..............
Why is someone addicted to heroin worse than someone addicted to caffiene? Just social acceptance, that's all.....

The abiltly to live a life and be a productive member of society. I am aware that some opiate addicts are able to live a normal life, but i think its clear the majority can not. I dont think ill be convinced that someone who has a habit requiring them to inject a 5 bag to get started in the morning is a equal habit to someone who needs a cup of Tea to get started in the morning. Call that social acceptance, or common sense, its up to you....im not here to judge...i dont judge someone who takes hard drugs on a regular basis, thats there choice to live the life they want. I am entitled to a right to form an opinion on their behaviour and express it in a non offensive way.SoulRider wrote: Why is someone addicted to heroin worse than someone addicted to caffiene?

Just a thought...break the cycle and live a life free of substance addiction?

its not just social acceptance. the Medical repercussions of using hard drugs like heroin is a lot worse than being addicted to caffeine or even marijuana. And any addiction is bad. anything too much is bad. And its just a short amount of time once ur addicted to hard drugs that you use more and more and try even harder hitting stuff. Anything that controls your life isn't good. I have a couple friends who cant go through a day of work with out smoking up before or during. IMO thats pathetic.SoulRider wrote: Why is someone addicted to heroin worse than someone addicted to caffiene? Just social acceptance, that's all.....

Many of the health problems associated with Heroin addiction are directly attributed to its illegal nature. If addicts were able to source a clean consistent supply many of the medical problems would be negated.
Sir Niall, you talk about psychological addiction as though it is somewhat 'lesser' than a physical addiction. I would argue the opposite. A physical addiction can be kicked in a few days, it is the psychological addiction that can last a life time, even after a habit has been kicked.
The legality of drugs such as alcohol makes an addiction to them real insidious in my opinion. I have witness more lives been destroyed by alcohol than ANY other drug.
Addiction is an interesting word and it is something I have plenty of first hand experience with, as a said a lesser of evils for me. I truly believe an addiction to tea or cream cakes can be as damaging as an addiction to what you might class as 'hard drugs'.

Right, i did not intend that to come across, however as cannabis is not pyshiologicaly addictive, it is responsible to encourage someone to quit cold turkey. Some you sould not do with booze or herion for example.happydaze777 wrote:Many of the health problems associated with Heroin addiction are directly attributed to its illegal nature.

I agree you have probably seen more lifes destroyed by booze, however could this not be because you know more people who take booze compared to herion. Of course more lifes are destroyed by booze, but could that not be because more people use it, therefore it is a percentage issue not a substance issue.
If you want to think that a addiction to jafa cakes is more dangerous than a crack addiction, thats fine. However imo, that sounds completely stupid.
