Any addicts?

Have you been called an addict? Do you think are one? I'm curious, I know this forum is mainly for people who smoke weed and it's not very cool to admit that even MJ can become a problem in some people's lives, but are they any former H shooters or crack fiends in the house?

 

they mostly hang out in the forums for those particular drugs

 

I have been called an addict but my drugs i've had problems with have been disassociatives like ketamine and carrying over to a lesser extent with mxe. I used to drink alcohol to black out and When bath salts were legal I was using those pretty regularly.

I have kicked alcohol pretty much, bath salts have become illegal, I lost all my ketamine connections, so I'm doing alright. Mxe is still available but I have tossed all my needles, snorting it is just not the same and there has been several comments about the quality of alot of mxe being suspect lately.

 

i smoke weed like an addict...my social and professional life have suffered because of it (whether i give a fuck or not, anxiety from not smoking, general lack of motivation)

yet at the same time my weed smoking also fixes that and inspires me in different ways.

i do want to stop smoking though...and i think i will try to soon.

 

My girlfriend reckons I'm addicted to weed, I tell her there is no such thing as weed addiction.

It gets a bit much at times, but I have no problem quitting, I just don't want to. I like getting stoned, and I don't much believe in denying myself things I enjoy.

 

I have been told that I was an addict, and even made to seek help for it. I was passing out, and doctors thought that i was passing out from smoking weed, which was total bull!

While i do not believe that I was/am addicted to pot, I acknowledge that in the past I was not using it responsibly. I have since figured it is like anything else, you eat to much food, you have a problem, you work to much, you have a problem, you smoke to much weed, you have a problem. Life is all about moderation, we just need to learn how to moderate!

 

i smoke too much weed.

 

^^^ no such thing....

I've been called an addict, and i've heard from others that my friends refer to me as "... yeah, likes her jane".

I don't want to call myself one, mainly because I don't know what the requirements are to officially be considered "addicted". The standards vary from person to person. A lot of people on these forums smoke way more weed than I do or did, so i'd feel a bit out of place by calling myself an addict.

However, waking up and hitting a bong, after breaky hitting a bong, hit a bong before class, hit a bong after class... and so on really added up in my past year to like 10 bings a day. I consider that a lot, but again theres people on here who do more lol.

The first time I quit weed was hard. I couldn't sleep for a week, literally just laid there wide open and all I could think about was green. As you all probably know smoking before bed becomes habit and basically your rest starts to depend on weed. It also sucks when you depend on jane so much to the point of escaping reality or running away from your problems... that was hard to. I got over it though, and stopped for a few months.

I would just say I have a very fond love for jane, and nothing more. The fact that I can battle through it alone and quit whenever I want or need to allows myself to consider me as a non-addict.

 

I often find myself tired as shit.. even passed out on the couch and the gf will wake me up and ask if i wanna go to bed... and i'll go "ok baby.. i'll be right there.. gonna smoke before i crash"

 

My ex honestly said the exact thing. It's like a bed-time duty, a habit. It always follows after brushing your teeth... haha.

 

^^gross, i'd brush AFTER smoking

that's my worse 'withdrawal' symptom when i don't smoke - not sleeping well. i just came to my fiance's parents for thanksgiving, and didn't smoke yesterday. it was crazy hard to fall asleep and once i did, i had such vivid dreams that it's hard to get a sound sleep. that's what usually happens.

but i just went for a walk in the woods a did a little doobie while they are all out black friday shopping

 

smoke tastes weird to me when i smoke after brushing my teeth... yuck

 

Yea, I think the vivid dreams are common. At least, my dad told me about getting them when he stopped smoking for six months, and I noticed them too. I also had a few dreams about smoking weed, I would always wake up paranoid to hell thinking I'd fail a drug test.

 

LOL I actually didn't mean after. But whatever, lmao. I was referring it to being a night-time before-bed habit, the same as brushing your teeth is. I didn't exactly mean brushing your teeth after hitting a bing.

 

im pretty sure im addicted to weed at this point

 

well that's the proper order.

before you said, it comes AFTER brushing your teeth
