Thanks for the kind words, Tyler. I will probably be posting some updates to this thread from time to time over the next few weeks or so.
Good luck with getting off the pot. Having done a lot more thinking about addiction over the last few years I clearly see now that pot was a problem of mine in high school and even a bit after that, that cast a shadow over my life in terms of motivation, insight and growth. Pot is clearly less deadly than booze but very damaging nonetheless. Good luck.
BTW all,
I am now 8 days since my last drink and 11 since my last drunk. Can't remember ever having done that in recent memory...
