Answer 1

I am a recovering drug addict, clean for over two years now. I go to Narcotics Anonymous. As we say in the program: you HAVE to be only as willing as the dying can be. Pot IS a drug. One of the worst. The destruction, dereliction and death is REAL. In NA, we do it "just for today". You are someone whom I care about deeply. A fellow addict. Please, give yourself a break and find the nearest NA meeting. You don't ever have to use again. Recovery from addiction is real... Anyone can quit using drugs. Drugs are but a symptom of my disease. The problem is ME and my inability to deal with life on lifes terms... please find a meeting.
There are over 38,000 meetings world wide weekly. Look here to locate a meeting in your area:

If this junkie from under the bridge can recover... so can you.

weed is not addicting, i just think u took it to a whole notha level. My husband would smoke sweet afta sweet of dro. He was not playin with bongs although he often used a pipe. But believe me he was a real smoker, sometimes he would even lace a j with yay. He quit that. Thank God. But anyway weed addiction i believe is partly on the person because my husband just quit about 3 months ago no problem at all. Has not mentioned weed at all. might of had a cravin but has never gave in. He can quit when ever its not hard. Sometimes i'll quit for a couple months and if i want to smoke i'll smoke if i wanna quit i'll quit.All im sayin is that it shouldn't be that hard to ween ur self off weed. Don't let it get to yah, it seems it may already have but just try to chill out.

You have to want to. Then look around you and see how it is affecting your life. Where might you be financially if you wernt buying all that weed? How would you like to do time in the county jail, and loose all that you have, and be embarrasses in front of all you know and respect? How would you feel to get busted? When you are most likely to sit down with your bong find some other way to stay occupied. Keeping busy will help you forget to get high. Chew gum to fight the cravings. take your bong outside and smash it with a hammer. You wont be using it anymore! I use to smoke constantly, I thought Id never quit. But as I got older I began to notice that I didnt seem to get off the couch much. I began to get fat and extremely lazy. I would completly space out sometimes and I began top get pissed off at my own stupidity. I dont even desire it much anymore. although I do occasionaly puff to take the edge off./ Or keep from hurting some body!

Can you go without smoking 20 bongs a day? or do yo have to? screw looking for a weed alternative. just shoot yourself in the head. weed is not gonna kill ya you're gonna kill ya. Don't trip jst be mellow and do what you're supposed to do without hurting anyone or anything and you'll be all right.

Answer 5

This is not at the level of "recreational drug abuse" and more at the level of addiction. You need assistance to get off this volume of smoking.
The first thing you need is the "want to" to get off. There are many reasons that you should.
1. It is still illegal
2. It is very hard on your health
3. It is very hard on the finances

Best wishes on your desire to stop.

Answer 6

"cannabis free" cigarettes are really good for starting to quit, you can get them at your local head shop. Theyre awesome, a tobacco free mix of herbs that helps to detox your body, and curve your desire to smoke pot.

good luck

Answer 7

Tomorrow try 19, day after tomorrow try 18, then 17,16,15.....like that. I know it will be difficult but this will help you not to minimise but also to quit without any harshness.
