I'm gonna go an opposite way on the weed. I was as addicted to weed first and I became as much addicted to it as I was addicted to alcohol later.
It hit the same pleasure centres in the brain for me and it became an obsession just like alcohol did.
Whenever I was high I wanted to drink and vice versa.
You can't feel normal until you give yourself a chance to be normal. No crutches.
Weed might be legal but so's alcohol and tobacco. Legal does not always mean good.
You might find quitting the doob sucks for a week or two but I think you find the way easier overall once you do.
Being high on something was my norm for 30 years. All round addict is something I'm familiar with.
It took a little time and effort and some tough decisions to change that.
