I'll be having a baby boy sometime early next year (don't want to get too specific)
I'm a huge pothead and as money affords I like to get high on hydrocodone/oxycodone (oral, never snort/shoot). I'm prescribed Klonopin but not for anxiety (nerve pain) so I'll probably always be a low-dosage benzo user unless I win the lottery and can have experimental surgery but that's a discussion for a different thread.
My wife isn't a drug user, I only got her to take MDMA with me twice. I mean she was a pothead but she's never had trouble quitting for jobs (quit three times) and she's quit for the baby. When I mean quit, she's like a lightswitch -- no more pot.
I've been a drug user for about 9 or 10 years. I don't actively seek any and all drugs and I have no problem saying no to things like cocaine or meth (never tried never will)
I'm just a big, fat pothead and I like to use Rx opiates on occasion.
Now, I'm having to quit smoking pot because my unemployment is running out (family business closed) and I haven't ever had to quit smoking pot because my boss (family) was a pothead too (note: pot had nothing to do with our business closing
)
Anyways, unemployed with a child on the way I'm having to give up something I love to get a job. I hold a B.A. from a good university in a subject that almost always requires a drug test for positions that utilize said degree (think stuff like education or criminal justice).
I just don't want to be a letdown to my family, you know? The man is typically suppose to provide for his family and I could never see ruining my baby's life to my selfish addiction/usage.
So that's my (weakass) story. I'm just really nervous about quitting pot because the only thing I quit pot for is airplanes and I don't get on those often

Not really much to say. You planned the pregnancy so you have made a lifetime commitment to said child. As a mother of adult child I will tell you that being a parent does not stop once children become of age. Life has changed for you now. The baby will amuse you beyond what a pot buzz can! BTW, I have no experience with drugs other than the opiates I am tapering off of from my pain dr. I once had a script for xanax which I took foe severe panic attacks when I could not shake myself out of one. Kids are more fun. The best is when you become a grandparent though...It's a ways off for you but you get to spoil the shit of them and then send them home to their parents
