Day 216

Today is my day off today went to the chiropractor at 10 now I'm off to do laundry and who knows what else, as the gf smokes weed behind me. Which is what she does routinely 4-5 times a day. I find it harder to not smoke than to not drink because I'm around it more. I've been with the same girl now 5 years and for the last 4 1/2 years I've been smoking weed with her on a day to day basis. Slowly closing in on a year but it's seems far away. Need to continue to be strong but it's not easy not much support around me. Have been off social media facebook Twitter etc.... For a while now to. I need to figure something out and keep busy before I
Go crazy. Days off have turned into errands and apts. I haven't had a vacation in almost 2 years taking one in January, and know that when I take one the gf is going to need to bring a bunch of weed with her to be happy. Either way I'm happy to be here and alive and well. Continue the struggle and try to come out on top!

Glad to hear you are doing well with your drinking abstinence. Is your plan to quit smoking pot too? I would imagine that would be very difficult under the circumstances.

Thanks for the clarification, I guess I misread when you said "for the last 4 1/2 years I've been smoking weed with her on a day to day basis."

Even bigger congrats on being sober from both in what must be a very difficult situations.

Yea been pretty tough doesn't help working in a kitchen either with a bunch of drinkers lol but it's a test of will and strength I'm passing so far. The real goal is a year! Closing in but still a long way to go
