Love this one, @plebpoet I think this can be applied to substances of every kind, not just weed.
Whether that is a video game addiction, alcohol, porn or another illicit substance - I think it is good to not have these things capture our hearts and minds.
I think it is a good test too to see if one is dependent. If one could go several months without something, I think they are good.
With alcohol, often near the end of the week I get that thirst sometimes. There are weeks I go without it as well. Kudos to you for making a change, hopefully things work out :)
