Small little update…I’m on meds for about five weeks now, low dosage (10 milligram). And I haven’t smoked any for almost six weeks. I did so during the Christmas holidays but prior to that I was four months sober. The meds took a little while before they started working. There’s not a huge amount of change but I generally feel better and my way of thinking is less problematic. I worry less. Other than that I am feeling no side effects or anything. I’ll be seeing my doctor again in three weeks time to talk about the effects and about the dosage.

One aspect I really hoped would vanish but hasn’t materialised is the continuous pull smoking weed still has on me. It’s getting stronger as the weeks go by. Why is it that everyone seems to think the first weeks are the hardest? For me, it’s the other way around.

I don’t really know what I can do to alter my thinking. Just saying no all the time isn’t really cutting it.

Have a good weekend everyone!
