Hello everybody,
I forgot to check in here.
Vino88 - yeah, fatigue it's quite common, just give it some time, good eating, rest, exercise and maybe some supplements and you'll be rocking.
It's around 2 months for me now. Generally I feel better. I like the freedom I have now, not having to think about it all the time and etc. For example I've been to this event that, first of all if I was smoking probably wouldn't have gone to and secondly, it would have been so hard to attend it and take the most of it if I had to think about and/or use pot.
Yes, I do have the occasional thoughts to smoke some, but I just remind myself that I'm better without it. Still, I have not made a commitment to never ever again, which for me seems to be the better way. It's just that I feel better without it for the moment and I like to keep it that way. After all, I could do it if I wanted to, it's just that I prefer not to.
So I'm happy I did it, there are a lot of benefits to not being an addict to pot - freedom, energy, health, money, prosperity, self confidence and many more.
Thank you for being here and being so awesome! Helping people is amazing!
Good luck and all the best wishes!

congrats on day 16 spunout 
I think being in a sober house is a great argument against any thoughts of smoking again.
If you can stay clean/sober now you'll be in a good place when you leave the sober house,.

3 years today
I have become a happy and healthy person during this time. It was a complex journey, with a very rough beginning.
I have lost a lot of weight, worked on my habits, quit alcohol too. My friends drifted away, I don't miss them though.
I don't miss anything really. I did not crave even once during this last year. I love my new life. I'm thankful.
That's why I say to anyone who is suffering from addiction: just quit, at whatever cost. It's worth it.

Hey, team.
Just wanted to say I'm not doing that well.
Stress is high, covid is bad around here, really hardcore stuff.
I managed 2020 quite well, but 2021 just got me. I began craving again.
I had not experience cravings in a long time.
Like I said many times, I did even not allow myself to think about relapsing.
But recently I realized I was begining to allow that thought again, and that's a red flag.
I won't relapse, I don't have oportunities to do it, and I don't have the "courage" nor the "nerve" to do it.
I would be to ashamed to look in my wife's eyes.
But I feel vulnerable, after quite some time feeling so steady.
Just venting I guess. Thanks for reading.
