I go through some crazy withdrawls randomly (not really withdrawls, just the thought 'wouldnt it be awesome if i smoked and ____'). it took me about a month to start seeing any aspect of my life change though (idk why, first few weeks i was really mellow, first week i was just generally down). the biggest thing is that i dont smoke on occasion. idk why, but it like carries over. as in, the longer im straight, the better i am at whatever i want.
its hella tough if all of your friends smoke. theyll rip on you and just try to get you to take a hit or bong rip or w/e and its just so tough in the beginning. i mean, its not like my life sucked when i smoked, i was hella happy with it. its just that things are immeasurably better now.
anyways, hope this helped. just my story.

I smoked almost daily through HS and college and didn't give a #*%@...
Quit basically out of necessity and got a job in Costa Rica...now everything is better - health, motivation, mental capacity. People will claim they can smoke and not get lazy but I don't buy it. I still get urges, and I've probably hit an L like 5 times in the last 12 months and then
But hey if you can do it and you're happy with your life
