I’ve been 2 years without a drink, although I still smoke weed. I don’t need weed to live my life, I just enjoy it from time to time. Would you compare that to someone going to AA and occasionally smoking a cigarette after or before a meeting with people?
Nope. But that’s my own opinion. I have heard of it being referred to as “Mary Jane maintenance” AA is step based. Working on the underlying reasons and changing behaviors. Pot is still a mind altering substance, and not nicotine. You do you man. For myself I wouldn’t even take pain killers when I had 3 broken ribs and a cracked sternum. Hope all works for you.
Hi Ethan,
While I never did anything as psychotically crazy on weed as I did on booze, for me weed still was an escape from reality.
It made me isolate from others and ultimately dulled my ability to feel full real emotions, which I think are vital to my spiritual growth.
That is just my experience.
Wishing you all the best
