You probably should take at least one year break from it. You will feel like shit for a time, but trust me when you stop using substances you will regain yourself, and your sense of balance slowly. Being sober is not your main problem..
Cravings and the feeling/thought of "just a little bit..", "it would help me.." will be present later, you have to learn your triggers and what makes you want to do it in the first place.. You have to research the topic.
I can tell that you aren't happy at all when you are high.. You might feel it, and belive it..
I won't tell you what to do or not, but as someone who came out alone from "addiction" mainly smoking weed, but used harder substances too..
Drugs fuk you up... No matter if you're using harmreduction practices, or just don't care..
Trust me there will be no need, even for a little bit of it, when you become sober and change your life truly..
You have to find your own way what works for you. Exercise is a good way to start.
It can be your source of strenght, and you can learn so much from yourself, your brain and substances..
It's better without it. It will get you nowhere good if you continue to smoke, you will never be satisfied if you think that weed makes you happy...
