    Smoke and chill turned out being my way of coping. The first step is to stop judging yourself for things that are apparently in your hand, but actually don’t.

      As someone who only abuses legal substances (no judgement), I honestly thought at first that you were recommending smoked meat and chili.

      Which does seem like a solid approach.

        I’m talking about 🥦. It helps to relax and think about the things that really matter.

        However, meat and chili are a solid option, too.

          I’ve never even attempted to smoke broccoli!

          Just kidding, I get what you mean. Though I’ve never partaken, I hear it’s a good option.

          I went to Jamaica for my honeymoon and they pointed out a house where apparently Bob Marley used to smoke. It had a fairly large chimney so I honestly thought they meant meat until my then brand new wife pointed out my obvious obliviousness to me.

      I always feel bad about smoking cause it feels like an attempt to “escape” the guilt and do even less, but honestly everytime I hit my vape (no joints, they make me go straight back to the couch) I suddenly get the urge to do anything productive, I might even consider doing something I enjoy, such as hobbies (that I just can’t make myself do when sober, god knows why)
