Hi Carl,

A week is a huge accomplishment! I meant to comment here earlier, so apologies for a late reply. I really just wanted to say that I commend you for the strength you have. You will make it thru the withdrawals and you will make it thru the insomnia and anxiety. And the best part -- you will have bragging rights and you will know just how strong you can be... and that strength sticks with you forever.

I quit smoking cigarettes almost 2 years ago. Hardest thing I've ever done. The first 3 months were the most difficult, but each day is a huge triumph, and you should reward yourself for every day. Trust me -- after the normal withdrawal passes, you will feel like you can conquer anything.

with admiration and support,
Miss C

Well done Carl. I hope you get a positive vibe from this process - I'm certainly getting one right now. Aw the best.

So far I've only been returning to this topic over and over to read it. Now you've gone and made me post something.

I am trying to quit 30 years of addiction to weed. So far I have made it 3 days without smoking. It seems the only time I really enjoyed making music was when I was high. I am hoping that in being sober I will find the urge and love to make music again. I just figured I would post this as I am sure I am not the only one here who has been in this situation and it makes me feel better to talk about it.
But seriously. I have a couple of friends who have been smoking for 30+ years. There have been times I wished they stopped, but who am I to tell anyone how to live their lives? It must come from within. As it has with you. Perhaps you have some friends who feel the same way, and perhaps they could become a source of strength, or at least a refuge for the bad days... just a thought.

I sincerely apologize Smokey for 'making' you post - but you see I think there's a more complex and indeed insidious process at work here and it's... fuck, I've gone and posted again. This time my resolve will not waver - I will definitely not be posting on this thread ever again, I swear on everything that's precious to me.

Yeah... I came back again just like I knew I would. But only for this ultimate post to say that...
yes I have an 'addictive personality' (as the current jargon has it) however there is nothing that cannot be overcome by force of will and despite past announcements which proved 'false dawns' this - is my final posting on the thread. Goodbye and good luck.

This thread needs to die..It needs to be left alone...If someone wants help there are places to go..If you are an addict..Seek AA..Period..The simple fact that DEE or whatever their name is..Has not even responded should be a very telling thing..

If you want to get sober get AA...NOT ma..ca,,na,,etc...JjET
I have a great idea, JJET....why dont you piss-off. Your negativity and condescending comments are NOT welcome here. The people of this community are showing their support for a member of this site and you cheapen it. I have little tolerance for ignorance, which means I have little tolerance for you. Why not give something more productive and positive to this community by posting something on your page that you have created. Earn some respect, not enemies. Ok...I'm done... for now. Take care & welcome to MacJams. Enjoy!

-Boris Luxx


that's what i love about this place ... Bravo mr. Luxx


Mr L's comments are as ignorant and rude as J's, if not more so. There is probably more than one member who agrees with J, but they've probably been here long enough not to bother saying anything to rile up the do-gooders, who are a truly vicious bunch when disagreed with.

What makes you oh mighty Shakey imagine that I'm trying to 'stir it up' (Incidentally a minor hit for Bob Marley), my intentions are a mystery even to myself.
