Addiction / Restriction

Somehow my life has slid out of control. I don't recognize myself. I have become the worst part of me.

I am so unbelievably addicted to smoking weed. Just weed, most say...it's all good. But it's not good at all actually. I smoke when I wake up, before work. I smoke when I get out of work. I am subdued and moody in between these two daily sessions. I'm scared.

And I'm smoking right now. My habit is not cute and I'm scared that I'm always going to choose to be alone with my weed and eating disorder. When did it get this bad?

It's been building up for years. I woke up today with anxiety. I remembered that at one time I wanted to be a model. 6-7 years ago.  I even went to casting calls. With my mom. I had the clearest image in my mind this morning of my mom and I sitting in a waiting room in some fancy corporate setting, watching the movie they played, not knowing what to expect. What I didn't realize is that I was at a crossroads.

Around the same time, I met my ex and fell in "love". We moved in together and brought each other down...the experience completely depleted any plans of mine to do something great while I was still young and hot.

I'm recalling this and thinking about the choice I made and feeling...not regret, just a deep sadness and sorrow for what could have been. I could have been better, done better...but I chose to pursue a chance at love.

It didn't work though!  Moving in with him was most likely the biggest mistake I've made to date. And I'll always know why I did it. The real reason...I needed to get out.

It's something I'm still dealing with, because I'm back here, living.

Living at home is making me crazy. "Home". "Family". It all makes me sick and angry. I'm using drugs to cope. It's a vicious fucking cycle. And I'm scared to death that I'm trapped.

Unfortunately, the pot has kicked in and things don't seem so bad.

Hold the phone while I grab a cup of coffee.

Yum. So hot.

I've been restricting all week as much as possible, but last night I did eat a fast food bean and cheese burrito. I added vegetables, obviously, but according to their website, one of those babies is 420 calories. Fitting.

Needless to say, I feel bloated. I'll pop some midol and skip breakfast. We're ordering Chinese food at work today. I haven't had it in months and have a craving for my mixed vegetables and white rice.  It's not too crazy calorie-wise. At lunch I will only have a few bites, then put it in the fridge to take home later. It's bad, I'm aware. But so good.

My period was about 2 days long this month, and very light. I know this to be a sign of not enough food intake and calorie stores. My body hates me. I hate my body.

Think thin.

They hind sight is 20/20. At least you don't feel regret...I think regret is worse then sadness when it comes to what could have been. As for the pot..I don't know what that's like. I think if you find it changing you in ways you don't like try to stop.

It is a vicious cycle, and it definitely feels like cage. But I do believe that the mistakes we make are important, because in the end they make you a bit wiser.

I'm sorry you're feeling that way, though. I definitely sympathize. I never used to smoke that much (just once in a while with friends), but now it's pretty much daily. :/

You're still hot, and you can still do anything you want to. <3

My body hates me and I hate my body.

So true, so sad, but so true. Maybe that's where we're going wrong...
I feel the sadness you do, and I want you to know that I reach out a hand to yours xxx

i am forever addicted to weed and my ED. i feel your pain. Best thing i do for myself is try to keep it out of the house, or i'll smoke it morning noon and night. Also, someone told me once that smoking weed slows down your metabolism - THAT advice gives me the motivation NOT to buy it. But i know its super hard. - new reader. :) nice blog!
