Hi Kyle
I smoked for 20 years - so I was probably a good 15-20 years older than you when I quit...
It wasn't too hard for me to quit physically...and although I remember being irritable it didn't get much worse than that mentally...it was just the slog of getting through it that sucked really.
I moved away from my friends too, so I didn't have the temptation factor either I guess.
My advice is to keep busy, remember why you're doing this, and use us here at SR as much as you like. Support is a wonderful thing
In the longer term? I know I smoked, and drank, and did whatever else for underlying reasons - I had some void in me I was trying to fill.
When I gave up pot, I turned even more to alcohol and wasted another decade - I know now I should have faced up to my issues and worked out precisely why I wanted to be off my head so much.
I think that's kinda what Anna was getting at.
I dunno what you feel about 12 step programmes but there is a Marijuana Anonymous too...never done it myself, but here's a link for you to follow up if you wanna check it out. A lot of the people here also feel the need for face to face support.
