well i got caught and wen this joint is gone im done 4 a while i need 2 get clean n get a job and im motivated 2 get my life gonfg im fuked on vicos n weed so idk i guess i need advice
ya i quit for a while its been a week. Its not hard at all just get ur mind on something else. Smoking isnt that b ad but ur parents gotta make a huuuuuge deal about it and make u feel like shit. It sucks. I will prolly start up again cuz its not ruining my life. It will only ruin ur life if u let it take control of u.
Well unlike 99% of the people here, I do say, its hard to quit smoking. I've tried many times and the only motivation would be probation. I honestly think it is addictive just like anything people do a lot(sugar, caffeine, etc). I dont care if its not like cocaines addiction but smoking takes up a certain part of your life. My best advice, get around your parents nnn keep on blazin!
i totally agree, at first it was soooo hard for me to quit b./c ive been smokin 2-3 times a day for about 6 monthes. i turned into a dude that i didnt want to turn into, my everyday life was planned/ constructed around weed. I got mad at myself lol really bad b/c i became a dumbass, ppl who smoke daily i really think its worse for u than ppl say, i thought it wasnt that bad either but i noticed some obvious bad effects of weed, and it really made me quit in the fastest way possible, my mind is switched off for weed hahaha im not touchin it for at least afew monthes and then i might do it in moderation but smokin daily fuck u up. Real talk.
There are 2 things i tell people who ask if weed's addictive (for some reason i get asked a lot) 1. It's addictive like a video game can be - you don't need it, but you keep doing it because you like it. 2. because of 1, the classic phrase "I can quit any time I want" is actually true, but the keyword is want - if you don't want to quit smoking, it's going to be hard to stop, but if you actually don't want to smoke anymore, it'll be easy not to.
i had to quit for rehab for a long time, so i took up drinking, and then when i smoked again it wasnt fun anymore. i was just paranoid and talked to myself and isolated from my friends, and i was majorly addicted (psycologically) to weed really bad before that. im not saying take up drinking or anything, just find something better to do to occupy your time, like playing the guitar for instance, which is what i do when i cant do anything else. or like you said get a job
i know its mentally addictive. i was very suprised how easily i quit many months ago, i just decided i wont smoke, thats it.
Ja, right before i started my break from it, i was definitely addicted. The first week to week and a half is the hardest, honestly seafort is right; a book or two is a good way to get your mind off of it. After that first week though, you'll start tripping on sobriety and you'll have a new daily organization to your life. Good luck.
i quit about three weeks ago. not by choice, but because my stomach got screwed up somehow (not due to weed) so whenever i smoked it made my stomach really gassy and cramped. felt terrible. so i weighed out the priorities in my life and decided being in comfort was better than being stoned. maybe one day ill return to smoking but for now, i feel pretty good.
i have had to quit on several occasions, for me its easier because i have less access to it than i used to, also less money to spend because im saving my money. anything can become addictive though, it depends on if you have an addictive personality on certain things though, like weed. i'd say, have a buddy help you quit. quit for atleast 5 months or so, depending on how addicted you may be and how less addictied you wish to be. when you get off of it for awhile, you come back to reality and have what i call a "sober reality trip". not a TRIP really but a high, but i guess u could call it a mind trip even though ur not seeing anything.. anyways. sober reality trips are fun too though, you gain appreciation for the sober life and everything seems weird in a small way, depends though. hard to explain this point...
Exactly, If you understand the way the brain works, you know that it can even create it's own withdrawels ... it can happen on anything .. sugar ... or if you love racing even that's possible. If you WANT to quit however, it's not that hard. Unless ... you normally don't smoke cigarettes but you actually use tobacco in your joints. I've helped countless of people who tought they were addicted to cannabis .... when they told me about their addiction it sounding goddamn much like a nicotine addiction, which is 100 times worse. All cannasmokers who use tobacco in their joints and don't smoke cigarettes ... start smoking and see how easy quitting cannabis is if you actually want it. It's just the habit you gotta kick.
If you can't use it responsibly you shoulnd't smoke. If it's interfering with important parts of your life, you have to quit. I have responsibility but I smoke when my duties are done for that day. I'm not saying I'm perfect, I'm going to work high today, but the job I have is doable high. I work alone at a kiosk in the mall. It's not sales, it's retail. I sit there listening to music until someone wants to buy something, i ring it up, "thanks, have a nice day!" then more music If I have a test, I won't smoke, anything important needs to get done, I won't smoke. It's just like alcohol... responsible use by mature adults. It's usually not a fact of wanting to, it's always out of necessity. I've never known anyone that wanted to quit
I've quit on several occasions and none of them were difficult. As long as you have the want to you will. Your body is not physically addicted so there are no "real" withdrawals. However, mentally is another story. Your brain may very well try to convince you that you "need" it. This is not true. If you feel that way, then you are not ready to quit and it will be difficult.
