Confession? Regret? Does it matter?

I am using weed as a way to deal with life. When I get stressed or upset, I smoke. I smoke before work and during lunch, on the way home from work to deal with the traffic and when I get home. This has been going on for about 2 weeks.

Smoking weed helps me think, it seems. I can rationalize things out and not feel so upset by the stress I've been experiencing.

I'd rather not smoke weed, but I don't think I can cope as well if I don't.

Plus, I'm sad today. I'm really very sad.
