It's interesting to hear that the skyrocketing quality of weed is making things worse, or more difficult for hardcore users, I agree. Meanwhile in Rio where I've smoked for years, quality is plummeting and/or price of quality weed, a rare thing to come by, is skyrocketing as combined effects of ever-present prohibition and financial crisis rage on.
It comes as a blessing in disguise for many people I know who have smoked daily for years, myself included. Hearing about close friends toning down or quitting as well is encouraging in a reverse peer pressure kind of way. After 6 years I finally decided there's too much crap going into my lungs (where plant material is the pristine part of that) to keep a habit without excessive spending. I quit buying and so quit my daily smoking cold turkey without bigger issues. A good wave of life events helped a lot to focus elsewhere.
I wouldn't think about never smoking again and it still happens some times a week when friends have it. I'm starting to feel more confident again in buying just a few grams of greener stuff once or twice a month and try to make it last, using after heavy exercise for pain/recovery management and trying to share what little I've got with friends too. It's a different mindset now, away from the loner self-absorbed retreats from life I had been used to, I feel much better for it. Not any point in this post I guess, just an anecdote.
