sobriety day four.

[spacecadet]

Hello all.

Well, its day four. I can already start to feel myself thinking more clearly. I have had some withdrawal symptoms, a little bit of nausea when eating, some lack of motivation when it comes to hobbies such as working out, and surprisingly, lethargy. Even now as I sit here writing this I'm drinking a coffee, but am still yawning. However, I have been sleeping much better. Last night I passed out at 9pm with a book, and it was Friday of all days haha. I don't know many single people in their 20's that pass out at 9pm on a Friday. I haven't really felt the urge to smoke, a little last night, but lifted some weights to distract myself.

I am worried about tonight however, I'm going out to the bar tonight to celebrate my friends 28th birthday. Not everyone in my group of friends smokes, but alot do. I'm worried that once I get some drinks in me, my judgment will be affected and I'll go out and blaze with my friends who smoke. (I live in Canada by the way so we have a much more relaxed atmosphere when it comes to pot. I have been caught by the police several times and never been arrested or charged, even while driving and smoking. While still technically illegal the law is not really enforced because the police recognize that the jails would be full of nothing but pot smokers as apposed to real criminals) They say that one should not drink when trying to quit an addiction, as it impairs judgement, but I don't wanna be a party pooper. Plus, we all know being a sober person around people that are drinking is lame. I think I have enough will power to resist, plus I'm only planning on having a couple. Let me know what you guys think!

Thanks.

Hello all.

Well I resisted temptation last night and I gotta say, I'm feeling pretty proud of myself this morning. Had a few more than a couple drinks though. It was not easy, I'm not gonna lie. My buddies Himalayan Kush smelt and looked really, really good. But that is as far as I got. I thought; "Well I have come this far I dont wanna ruin my pot sobriety" and all of my friends who smoke respected my decision to quit. Anyway, I'm gonna go get some MacDonald's breakfast then I have to go help my Grandma with some stuff.

Thanks

I know "tonight" already. Happened, but for future reference just do what I do, don't drink too much. Start off with a shot, then stick to beer the rest of the night and sip it slowly. Maybe like 1-1.5 beers per hour. Sounnds like nothing but you'll still get buzzed and people will see you drinking, but you won't impair your judgement too bad.
