jerjer72 Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 (edited) What happened was my comp had crashed and then would not work for like a month or 2 months however long it has been scince I last was on here. Now remarkably in that time I have not smoked a single ammount of hookah at all. <gasp> I know how horrible. I think I may have got out of hookah smoking. I know I had quit cigarettes and then I gave up drinking and scince I quit smoking cigarettes I just didn't feel like smoking hookah either. Now I know I WANT to smoke hookah but I just figured if I have quit cigarettes I may as well just give up the hookah also. I am not against hookah at all by no means. I love it. It's great. I just haven't smoked it for so long that I feel there is like no point to get back into it if I have gone so long without it. Okay let me be honest with you guys. I am worried about the health risks. There I said it. I have been thinking about my life lately and the way it has been going and all that shit I just don't know where my life is headed at all and I'm scared. I have all my like $400.00 worth of hookah stuff sitting in my closet. I have my alcohol sitting beside me. I still don't touch this stuff. I haven't had a single beer in weeks. What the hell is wrong with me? What the heck. I am so confussed. Btw I have been so depressed for so long like to the point where I couldn't eat or sleep at all for a while. It's gotten better though. Hookah was a hobby for me. Kept my mind off things. Made my room smell great. Made me feel good. I don't know guys. Also recently I started watching porn again.."gasp again" I went a while without watching it but now I feel quilty when I watch it.. I don't know why I feel this way lately. I don't know why. Sometimes I just feel so bizarre. Like to the point where I feel like getting up and pacing. I hope someone can help me understand what I am going through. Also I know everyone has there share of problems and me keeping on bitching about mine is annoying but I will help you guys if you can help me out. I have gone through so much and I am sure you guys have also. I am here for you as you are here for me. Edited April 8, 2007 by jerjer72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShishaFred Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 I'd say if you want to be happy , you gotta do what you like. It's the way I pucture work , hobbies ..anything. If hookah makes you feel as good as you described , then weight in the health risks and take a decision. I think many people on this board have already done the same thing and decided they'd stick with the hookah. Others , on the other hand , have quit.You're facing personal choices , and you're the only one with the right to choose for yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zerodynamic Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 hey man, welcome back!Hookah isn't for everyone. I know plenty of people that like looking at them, smelling the aroma, but don't want to smoke. Its cool. No one will judge you for that. We all know smoking is unsafe.With that said, you have like $400 worth of stuff huh? wanna sell some of it? I'm always looking for acqusitions....... that is, if you really aren't going to smoke anymore.Whatever your decision, good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASUSEAN1 Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 yea man, i;ll take your hookah stuff. maybe the others are right, take up another hobby.good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hookahmike Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Remember even red meat & junk food is bad for you if taken to extremes!The trick is EVERYTHING in MODERATION! How much did you hookah b4 and if you think it is a lot, can you go back to it @ a considered, moderate level?If no, then you have to decide what to do next, but I would work on that since it is just another facet of your life and you have to start learning this somewhere. Might as well start w/ something that helps you unwind (= stress reducer, etc, which is VERY important in life these days. Just have to understand this is a release valve, not a permanent escape ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angemonkwj Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 well first of all, welcome back. even if ur not smoking, ur a part of the community here. second of all, u said that smoking made u feel good, but were u smoking all the time? cut back like mentioned earlier. moderation is the key. and if ur not sure, smoke one bowl to remind u how it feels, then make ur decision. third, if u find that it's just not for u anymore, find another hobby that might make ya happy again. something that mike make health risks seem a little less important, like a physical hobby. biking, rollerblading, hacky sack, hell even darts or billiards. i know u'll find ur way bro. good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OPR234 Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 welcome back. sounds like you're goin through some shit in life, it happens to everyone eventually, you'll be okay. smoking and drinking is bad for you, if youre worried about it, just give it up and enjoy your better health. if you keep feeling guilty about things you enjoy, maybe you should see a therapist (im being serious here), because if you keep feeling bad about feeling good then you could use some help to get over it and actually enjoy yourself once in a while.

Kym Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Let me know if you need anything. Life can be cruel. How old r u if u don't mind me asking. Being healthy is always a good thing. I like to go out into the wilderness and just get away from everything every chance I get. If you want to find a healthy stress relief i suggest camping; hiking, ect... Rock Climbing will do wonders for u by making your body and MIND strong. Sell your Hookah stuff to these vulturs (lol), and buy some climbing gear. Or whatever you find interesting. A little porn never hurt anyone, everything in moderation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahuwood Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 welcome back! i agree with kym, some fresh air and good 'ol exercise never hurt anyone. surround yourself with people you love and who love you. i hope you feel better soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
