I feel nothing without weed

[Nom de Plume]

I have plenty of argument, I could go on for pages and pages, but I don't come to this section with the aim of getting involved in pointless slanging matches. I fall short sometimes but I try to restrict my input to something that's going to be useful for other people to hear.

Well, as they say, what is pointless to one person makes perfect sense for another.

Addiction does come on hard and fast. The day I first woke up sick and broke, my first thought was, "Oh fuck, what have I gotten myself into THIS time?!"
^^ and that had NOTHING to do with society and everything to do with my own personal situation/values... sure, society exacerbates the problem. But believe me, there was already a problem there long before society started to interfere. Addiction is insidious. There's so many facets to it. Who knows why people didn't write about it back then... perhaps it was simply a taboo subject, sort of how beastiality and incest are now. Maybe people didn't write about it because there would have been some sort of huge stigma attached...??

Anyways, OP, I agree with what someone else said. Mostly you just need to give yourself time to start feeling better, but exercising and eating healthy and socializing with friends who don't smoke and etc. will help you feel better a lot faster than if you just sit around feeling miserable about your life. You gotta go out and DO something to make it not seem so miserable!!

^^addiction by its own definition is continuing to do something in the face of negative circumstances outweighing the positives..addiction is no fun, to opiates its a living hell as i imagine it is to many other drugs..

i recommend OP to start exercising asap..start with a 30 minute workout, get some endorphins flowing, it will help but i know many potheads that when they quit, they turn into miserable people..lifeless, bored, no motivation, no joy and some have said this went on for months whereas other claim it lasted a week and they felt better..its different for everyone and it also depends a lot on that persons underlying mental health ...
