Cannabis... Some do, some don't... I used to, but am really quite pleased with myself! Attempt 1.3m is now my longest period of cessation in about 3 or 4 years. Just a reminder... don't limit your resolve to NYE, you can make changes anytime. But make them for the right reason! :-)
I try and quit dope for at least three weeks once a year. Last time I tried dumping teh tobacco I was using a lot of rolling tobacco and experienced unpleasant and scary withdawal. I've weaned myself down to a £5 packet of fags every three days so far, and am fixing to have another go soon.
I'll not quit the weed, just move to a pipe or edibles as I do whenever I get off the tobacco. I'm less "troublesome" when I smoke weed, but I'm not running a raging habit to be fair, a stable forty quid a week, although since my C.A.B. finance advisor suggested I grow my own(!) that seems to have the potential to fall to £zero if I ever get my act together..
It's not for everyone, but it does work for me WAY better than acohol as a recreational substance, and I derive certain concrete benefits from it as far as MY particular psychology goes. The point of stopping occasionally for me, is to test if that is still true...
But kudos to you for taking action to get the result you want. I confirm that after a few months off the tobacco, you will start to cough up a lot of interesting looking crap, and your fitness does definitely improve quite dramatically. I consider my relapses when they have occurred to be the most insane things I've ever done. And decoupling dope use from tobacco use, tends to make that habit more economical too, because the tobacco hit is shorter than the dope hit, one can end up topping off one's THC levels earlier than is perhaps optimal..
It's when DWP get wind of CABS idea and suggest you become self employed...
Licencing: The ability to pay someone else for what you used to be able to do without payment.
A form of state extortion wearing a false mask of utility. There's a lot of those...
The sort of people who are attracted to "govern" are very good at turning a "Right" into a paid for "Priviledge". I.E. an income stream for (((them))).
