Giving up the herb?

I used to smoke a hell of a lot (at one point I was probably getting through about £100 squids worth a week )

I gave up after I found myself at work one morning after being on the weed the night before with absolutly no idea of how I got there. Scarey considering that I had driven over 30 miles on 'autopilot'

I had started to find that I wasn't doing anything else other than smoke dope and hang about with my mates, who were also smoking dope and doing nothing else.

I am not so far out of it that I can't enjoy the occasional spliff but it's not something I could do again.

Many of my mates still smoke and some do harder things now too, but we are all cool and I just simply don't get offered any more .

One thing I would point out....I work with what I would describe as a 'stoner' and belive me everybody at work can tell.......

I've always been an 'If it's not there I don't miss it' smoker, which was a bonus when living somewhere where a lot of people grew and I literally didn't buy any for about four years, but rarely ran out. Now I'm down to less than one a week. Basically because I don't smoke if I'm riding, and I ride most days. This morning, though, I'm feeling the effects of a social night last night, which is the biggest reason I stopped in the first place. Social pressure is the biggest factor in smoking though, and I have the breaking strain of a kit kat without backup - if my mate passes one to me and I'm not riding I'll take it without thinking, then usually regret it later. Lucky for me, my boss also smokes, which does occasionally reduce workplace output, but makes for hapier environments.

On the whole, reasons for continuing or not are personal, but hte morning after has always been my biggest reason to stop.
