    I'm really trying! Then the night of the second day comes and I'm like well I should just to celebrate making it this far.
    Doesn't make any sense...
    Going to try to set goals as each day comes
    I also feel I smoke too much weed, I feel like I go for these quick fixes of things to do when I have a lot of open time. I would rather be drawing or practicing something i would like to get better at but find it hard to start (tho once I do I am focused) it is much easier and quicker to go to things like weed and porn. I do notice it is slightly easier to quit them together, though I struggle a lot with weed, especially if im staying home since it is often out (and not mine but allowed to have some)

    I had a similar issue, I smoke and watch P. There is no other way but to quit both. I know how hard it is, but just stop watching P for now and if you cannot quit weed now completely, try to smoke less for now. Be strong and start to read our forum. You will find all answers here

    Hey chente, welcome my friend.

    Please start your journal, its therapeutic to write down what bothers you. Dig as deep as you want, you will see you are not alone and that feeling alone can be helpful. People have gone through the same (or are going). Its going to click with them and humans always work better in groups. Find them.

    Would you like to quit P? Or M? Or completely PMO? What about weed? Once a wekk/month?

    Dont be too hard on yourself but..stay hungry:emoji_muscle:

  4. For me, weed was the last one to go after porn and cocaine. I think part of it is due to the fact weed has become socially acceptable but that doesn't take away the harm it causes to your mental health. I can tell you after giving up porn, giving up all drugs (including alcohol) was the best decision i've ever made.

    I went to Cocaine Anonymous to kick the white stuff and got a sponsor and applied the same understanding and practices towards porn since in my mind porn is technically a mind altering substance (release of dopamine etc) but initially i struggled to stop the weed for about 2-3 months in but the straw the broke the camels back for weed was one evening when a friend popped over (i was stoned) and he tried to show me how to do something very simple on photoshop and i'm normally quick to learn things on computers, well i just felt like a zombie, brain dead, like my brain had stopped working properly so i just got to the end of my teather so to speak and haven't had any mind altering substances or viewed porn for over 4 years now.

    It's not easy at first but as time goes by, once you get over the first hurdle, 90 days, your brain starts to learn new coping mechanisms providing you put them in place.
