I hear over and over again that it is just too hard to quit, and I understand, because I have been there and I am going through the same thing right. But I wonder if I went to the doctor tomorrow and he told me that I am developing a disease and if I don't quit NOW I will die...I wonder if that would make just go through the torture of quitting right away and stop putting it off. Anyone else ? Is there anything that could make you finally put down your last smoke for good ?

Yeah, I have heard this from several friends too..that weed is from the earth and it is not harmful etc etc. but your short term memory is completely shot and your motivation is gone.
