Hey man I'm completely with you. Fuck Drugs and Alcohol. I never got into weed for a few reasons. When I talked to people that were high, they would think that they were sooooo intelligent but in reality they made no sense. Thus, whats the point of increased creativity if you can't articulate your thoughts to others. I hate the fact that at times I am a poor articulater as it is, my fear is to be intelligent but not be able to communicate well. I think that would be a depressing life, to know a lot but never be able to pass that info on or even show what you know. So for that reason weed isn't all that to me. The other reason is that I really don't think it makes me more intelligent. I think it makes me block out my common sense that would normally restrain my thinking, so I'd get idea's I normally wouldn't get, but unless your an artist those ideas don't help you at all. I'm not an artist. I enjoy being objective and seeing the world like it truely is. I strive to see life for what it is and to understand things. But weed takes that away. Finally, I think being intoxicated represents lost time. I can't learn anything new when I'm high. Maybe I think I'm learning but its mostly nonsense thoughts I'm having. I can't reason my way through a problem. Or read a book when I'm high. I just sit around doing nothing and wasting away a few hrs of my life until I sober up. Even then, like you said sometimes its awhile before your mind completely defogs. All that time wasted bothers me.Alcohol I like more, but I don't drink much at all. Maybe every now and then.Either way, fuck what people say, if you want to quit you definitely can. Its probably annoying at first, but if you really dedicate a few months of your life to learning and developing as a person. Eventually you notice 6 months go by and your like damn I came a long way. When you notice that its not going to be hard at all to resist the urge to smoke or drink. Those are my thoughts.Peace
