So congratulations...you just have to make it one day at a time. It should get easier as time goes on and I hope that you can keep off the weed until you start noticing how much better you feel overall. You are right that having OC is a good motivator. The other times that you quit, you didn't have such a GOOD reson to quit.
We're all behind you and know you can do it. Good luck.
