Hey TheSadGirl,

Thanks for your input and I appreciate your moral support. Quitting smoking cigarettes was the toughest addiction I ever had to break. Pot is not as hard but I still do have moments where I almost ache for it... hence this thread.

I'm not anti-pot and know it helps lots of people and has also helped me with nausea from chemo and a chronic pain condition. Unfortunately in my brain it has untoward side effects in addition to the good effects. I definitely enjoy my existence more when I am running a buzz as long as anxiety doesn't take over... and I look back on the fact that my psychotic episodes didn't start until I resumed pot after more than 25 year abstinence,

All my episodes were when i was continuously consuming a little bit at a time all day long. I'm not one of those people who can moderate my use because when the buzz starts to wear off my anxiety shoots through the roof so I take another toke until I feel better.
