Pot’s Blog
What is POT?

My husband has given me plenty of reasons - too many to list- to suspect him on either cheating on me or doing drugs. I asked him if he were having an affair. His reaction was no and had a puzzled look on his face as though he was shocked I just asked him that. I believe him on that. However, I asked him if he were smoking again (pot - he used to about 5-6 years ago). His reaction to that was no, but said he wished I’d let him. Of course that led to the question of “O.K., be honest with me, have you done that at all because with him saying he wished I’d let him is making me feel as if he has.” He still stated no, but seemed to be laughing as though he really wished I would allow this when he knows I never would again. I stood by him the solid year he was quitting. These feelings are recent and I’m not sure if he truly is or if he’s saying that because he knows it would just tick me off. Please help!
His latest thing that really got to me was him getting his ring out to put it on. He usually took it off due to work and I understand that with a manufacturing job. But he hasn’t been to work in months and I’ve noticed he doesn’t wear it. I never brought it up with all the other issues we seem to have, but did when he had enough guts to do that today in front of me.

Okay, so I just got my fried a job at my work and he has to do a hair follicle drug test. He told me he smoked pot about 3 or 4 weeks ago… once or twice. And that was the first time he had done it in years. Will it show in the test? Could he get away with saying he was around other people who did it and that he didn’t… or do they not buy it?

Hey, my name is Matt and I am 16years old.
I just quit smoking Cigarettes and Weed today.
I’m going to try and do something new with my life and I’m going to fill out job apps. but I smoked a bowl yesterday. how long will it stay in my system? how can I detox it out?

any advice would be great! thank you

I just wanted to say a little bit about why I’m quitting pot also
I started smoking it because my brother died in a car accident two years ago and I blamed myself for not being with him to keep him awake. I started smoking in July it was a way out of blaming myself it seemed great. I moved to a new school new town last month and I found this great girl. my Girlfriend won’t even kiss me when I’m high or anything. lastnight though I tripped way to hard because the Bowl I smoked was pure Resin. I was crying and I just felt like the world was ending. so I got up today and started a new chapter in my life. Weed is not the answer. it just seemed like it.

My ex and I were together for 11 yrs. I never married him because I was unsure if we really had that much in common. He’s a very charasmatic & popular guy but he also smokes marijuana regularly (daily) and although I used to also I quit after we started our family. (our son is 2)

I think my ex did try to quit, he cut back a lot, but ultimately ended up saying that I was trying to change him and he decided to leave. Initially he said he left because we were arguing a lot and it wasn’t good for our son. Which I could understand. But then I found out he’d been talking to/texting a 21 yr old at his job for mos before he left. Now he says that he left because he just wants to “be happy” and that I was keeping him from doing what he wants (like porn, 4-wheeling, golfing, hanging with friends). He also said he likes smoking pot and enjoys living his life that way. He refused to do counseling.

He seems very content with his decision which makes me sad. I wonder if he’ll ever regret it?

I agree with you %100. I was going to college with a CJ major but think it’s a joke compared to life experience which I have alot of. Unfortunately that cannot get me a job alone. So so far you that is one of my options next to corrections, however it isn’t very easy to get a CO job around here.

When I meet my husband he was a heavy pot smoker. Since we have been together (about 5 years) he has dropped that bad habit and improved a lot in his live. He was able to get his stuff together and get custody of his daughter. Something he thought would never happen. All this took 2 to 3 years to achieve but it was worth it. Recently my husband works 2nd shift and I work 1st shift. This has been like this for about 3 years now. And trust me it has been hard. I become very lonely at times and have been depressed about it before. I never get to see him during the weekday unless I want to loss a couple of hours of sleep and stay up with him. I talk to him 3X’s a day for about 5 to 10 minutes, which ***** but I deal with it. I am 2 months pregnant with our first child together and it seems my feelings of loneliness are getting worse. This is a special time in my life and I can barely share it with my husband. Lately my husband has been getting off of work around 1 or 2 in the morning and hanging out with his best friend from high school. His friend is ok but I have a hard time trusting my husband with him as his friend is a drug dealer. I am afraid that all the achievements we fought for all those years could go down the drain if he gets caught in his friends car while he is dealing. He does not have a real job so he depends on dealing to live. He has talked my husband into selling a couple of times but I put my foot down as I don’t want to live that life. And he also gets my husband to smoke pot with him. I understand he is an adult and can do what he chooses but I don’t see the point in smoking anymore. He quit smoking pot to get his life back on track and told me he would never do it. He hided it from me before but now I have caught on and have a big issue with it. A couple of weekends ago, His best friend was dealing and had a gun pulled on him. The guy he was selling to was trying to rob him. The gun went off and skimmed his clothes. Since I found that out I have been terribly worried about my husband hanging out with him when I am away. There are sometimes that my husband goes driving around with him when he is selling. When I know he is going to hang out with him, I have a hard time sleeping worrying if something will happen and watching out the window to make sure he comes home ok. I do admit that I am jealous that his friends get to spend more time with him then me. Yesterday I decided to spare some sleep time and hang out with my husband when he gets off. But he already had plans to hang out with his friend. I upset me that he would rather hang with him then me. But seeing how upset I was he decided to come home. I ended up telling him that I had a problem trusting him when he is around him and he blew up. He kept saying he can’t believe his wife does not trust him. I was not trying to make it a big deal but he did. He thinks nothing is wrong and I am overrating with it. He would not talk to me the rest of the night and I ended up crying myself to sleep because he slept on the couch. And today he has not even called me all day long. He tells me all the time to not keep things inside; to be open with him. Which I did but he went the whole other direction. Did I really over react or was I right to tell him how I feel? I love him dearly and **** to even fight with him. Please let me know your opinion.

A group of graduates, well established in their careers, were talking at a reunion and decided to go visit their old university professor, now retired. During their visit, the conversation turned to complaints about stress in their work and lives.
Offering his guests hot chocolate, the professor went into the kitchen and returned with a large pot of hot chocolate and an assortment of cups - porcelain, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite - telling them to help themselves to the hot chocolate. When they all had a cup of hot chocolate in hand, the professor said: ‘Notice that all the nice looking, expensive cups were taken, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best
for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress.
The cup that you’re drinking from adds nothing to the quality of the hot chocolate. In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink.
What all of you really wanted was hot chocolate, not the cup; but you consciously
went for the best cups. And then you began eyeing each other’s cups. Now consider this: Life is the hot chocolate; your job, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain life. The cup you have does not define, nor change the quality of life you have.Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the hot chocolate.
The happiest people don’t have the best of everything.
They just make the best of everything that they have.

Live simply.
Love generously.
Care deeply.
Speak kindly.

My bf of 2 years just told me 2 days ago to get out of hise life because I was bringing him down. I am lost now. I still love him. I want to be his friend, but he does not want that. I feel like I can’t go through life wiithout him. He was their for me . I only have 2 close friends. i can’t even concentrate on my school work. Alll I think about is how I could have been a better girlfriend and not ragged on him about being a pot head and not haveing a job. I should of just helped him.
I always felt like he would never get on track with his life, but always hoped one day he would go to college and get some type of job. I feel bad for him. When I was with him I felt like breaking up with him but now that he broke up with me and told me he hated me I am crushed

I recently was offered a great job for a company that i have been applying to for years. I am not a big pot smoker, but enjoy it once a month or less. I need to pass a drug test. The last time i smoked was over two weeks ago and i don’t have any money at the moment. The catch twenty two is that i just found out im pregnant. Many of the suggestions ive read dont seem that safe for someone who is pregnant. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. thank you. oh and yes i have quite smoking sense i became aware of being pregnant.
