Hi, my Uncle gave me a joint at 13 which led to a 22yr habit. In my mind it made cool, tough. Throughout the time I also thought I loved it to a point I couldn't do without it, became heavily addicted to it. Just the thought of going without, no way, how boring life would be being a straighthead. I needed it to help me get through all the crap, to help me relax.
After getting sick, being broke all the time. After a supposed friend stole pot & money off me & left me not high but dry, no food etc, had had a gutful by this time, making the dealers rich who didn't give a damn bout me anyway, only my $$$. I gave up cold turkey.
I know now what it feels like to be straight, it's not boring like I thought & will never let a plant control & destroy my life again. Could have bought a house, car etc..with all that $$$ wasted. Nothing left to show for it but a mental illness & more sense about me.
It is so good to think clearly without being stoned.

Anyway, hope you don't make the same mistakes I did.
Take care
