Before I start telling you my tales of woe, I'd like to say how much I enjoy smoking cannabis. People who are addicted to alcohol have a problem called alcoholism. I don't neccesarily consider my use of cannabis a problem,but rather something that i enjoy. Maybe however, I enjoy smoking weed a bit too much?

Since I was about 18, I have thrown myself into a heavy cannabis usage. I smoke a joint for breakfast, as soon as i wake up, and carry on smoking from there until I go to bed. The last thing I do before I go to sleep is smoke a joint too. I also smoke fags. I probably smoke between 20 and 30 fags a day, and then between 6 and 10 joints a day on top of that. As much as I enjoy smoking pot, this is too much for me. I like to have a smoke with my mates after uni or after work or whatever. This is one of my simple pleasures which I would really rather not give up.

That being said I have recently given up cigarettes, and I am trying to knock the weed on the head too. Here's why:

I sing in a punk band based in South Wales, UK. We're not doing too badly at the moment, but Ive been feeling like my voice is letting us down recently. Anyway, that's one reason, but not the main one. Just before Christmas, I was calling round my girlfriend's flat to show her the finished copy of my band's new album, which we completed the night before. As I went towards her room, (I let myself in with my key which she gave me.) I heard a noise which I had heard a thousand times before over the time we were seeing eachother. My girlfriend was having sex in the bed that I shared with her for the last year. Long story short, it turns out that the guy she's fucking in our bed was my best friend. (Honest to god, no jerry springer bullshit, shes actually fucking my best friend, and i caught her.) We're broken up now, I havent seen my mate since, and i dont intend to. The point is, I feel like shit. In some way or other, this has to be my fault, because I brought them together. These guys are cunts, and its better that I found out now than 6 months down the line when we're all living together. To reiterate - the point is, I feel like shit. I feel worthless, unloved, unrespected, i feel like nothing at all. I've come to the conclusion, that now is the time to start doing all the things ive been promising to do for years, but have always been too stoned to get off my arse and actually do. If only to start feeling a bit better about myself and who I am. First things first, i need to quit smoking. Which is fine, I'm prepared to do it, willing to try. I'll do anything to stop feeling like this. I haven't had a fag in 4 days, which isnt bad. I've also cut the weed right down too. Rather than 6-8 joints a day, im between 3 and 6.

The plan however, was to completely cut weed out on weekdays. I had my 'last spliff of the week', Sunday night and was all set to go without for the week until 6pm on Friday evening. This morning however, (monday morning) after just 3 and a half hours sleep, I sat my driving test for the second time and failed the fuck out of that. By the time I got home at midday, I was gasping for a joint. So I had one. I've been stoned since then, and im going to bed in a minute. The thing is though, I'm only gonna get stoned all day tomorrow, and I REALLY don't want to. I want to make it a weekend thing. It'll be a reward as opposed to a privelage. Does anyone have any advice as to how to go about knocking Mary on the head, or at least cutting the dependancy to a simple weekend buzz rather than an everyday sensation? It would mean a lot if you could help.

By the way, its 4am here in the UK and I'm shitfaced. I have a feeling that my initial rant was for my benefit and completely unrelated to the topic. Either way, I'm fucked right up at the moment. I'm in a deep fucking hole, and I can't dig my way out. Advice from random potheads might be exactly what I need! =)

Has anyone ever quit smoking weed cold turkey? How do I even begin to go about this? Its harder than I anticipated.

For the past month or so, I've been in a battle with nicotine. I can't bear the withdrawal effects so I've continued to give in to smoking these fucking death sticks. I have quit smoking marijuana several times in my life for various reasons...the main reason of occurance was problems with state juvenile authority due to my bright ideas I thought of when I got drunk. But I quit smoking weed easily. How? I found something to do. Quitting weed is easy as cake compared to other substances. It's not addictive...You don't get sick when you don't smoke it..you don't constantly think about it when you don't smoke it. Trust me, it's something that you may think is hard to do, but your body and mind easily allows a transition from marijuana. And another thing that seems obvious is that there's really no direct demand for you to quit smoking, it's just that you're obviouslly consuming way too much of them pretty flowers, my friend...Perhaps think of buying a pipe, and limiting your smoking to only bowls and allocate say..three or four grams a day? I'm sure that's considerably lower than your current intake, and that is about what I smoke on a daily basis. It's nothing too heavy, but it makes my day go by much easier at school and work. A bowl before each, and a couple of bowls after school and work. It gives me a nice buzz and I can actually relate to you in an indirect sense. During the summer months, I was getting 4 ounces every week. And smoking that four ounces every week. I smoked an ungodly amount of joints, but when school started I knew that it wouldn't be necessary to smoke that much. So now I smoke about an ounce a week. And about your girl, that sucks man and something similar has happened to me. But don't let it get you down, mate. There's millions of women out there. And in those million, there are thousands that would be faithful to you and wouln't fuck one of your friends in your own bed. I wish for things to get better for you and hope my advice can help you. :thumpsup:

that issome jerry springer bullshit, damn. i would be so out of control pissed i would go out and fuck all her best friends and have a blast being single. being cheated on seems like it would be the worst situation, i dont even like my fiancee talking to other guys.
i dont smoke as much as you did or do but i do agree with you on the 'only on the weekends' idea...it is so easy to meet up with your buddies and smoke all day and night but i find that preoccupying your mind with work, school, hobbies, makes it so easy to forget about smoking 24/7. it makes it so much better too when you havent smoked for 5 days then get absolutely wrecked.
just dont be weak willed and follow through.

It's both physically and psychologically addictive. This has been proven both scientifically and by my own experience.

Of course it's not anything when compared with withdrawals from other substances, but it's still there. When quitting smoking after I've been every day I suffer from insomnia, loss of appetite, and irritability for the first couple days. But the insomnia seems to last longer.

The best way I've found to stop is to simply not buy any more.

The video game WoW itself is not addictive yet lives are ruined because of it.


Same thing with weed imo.

It's like a happy video game, relaxing in moderation but dangerous if used too much.

im gonna make this really big because is important:
FIND SOMETHING TO KEEP YOUR HANDS BUSY\
lol, i used to blaze everyday too, and i realised all i had to do to keep it to the weekends was keep myself busy. solution? learn an instrument. thats a great one. you could take up a cheap sport, like skateboarding or something. start drawing. just do anything so your not sitting on your ass wishing you were stoned.

AHLaD: First off, shitty situation man. Definitely not desirable, but you're getting some good (and some stupid) advice in this thread.

First of all, quite the cigarettes. IMHO, smoking cigarettes is less ideal than playing on train tracks: because with the train tracks, you get an adrenaline rush, and you're not necessarily gonna die.

Next up, I'd say cut down the pot use, but don't stop using cannabis. If you're used to smoking 6-10 joints a day, try cutting down to 1 or 2. Smoke them at night, before you go to bed, it should help you get sleep.

Marijuana IS NOT addictive (I'll come back to this point later), although I can imagine you might be craving the high with the whole girlfriend thing having just happened. I'd say any craving you have for a joint is probably a projection of your nicotine addiction. Go on the patch, talk to a doctor about how to quit cigarettes, just get rid of those things however you can. Spend the money you save by not buying cigarettes on a nice vaporizer if you want.

If you're having trouble dealing with the girlfriend-bestfriend fiasco (and you have every reason to have a problem with that) I'd advise seeing a psychologist. I've been to see a very good psychologist several times, and it really helps me sort out my thoughts.

And you should definitely take up a new hobby. Since you're a singer (I am too) maybe start taking some additional voice lessons, or start writing songs. If you want to try something new, I"m gonna throw out a curveball and suggest you take some Tai Chi classes. I think that would help.

I have to get off my PC right now, but I'm gonna return to this thread to talk about how unaddictive weed is.

anything can be addictive...

Always been my point, look at gambling addicts. They lose their job's, family's, homes. They're not smokin' the dice.

Weed, like anything can be addictive. I'm addicted. I love it. BUT WHY WOULD I QUIT? Will I lose my job, family or home? Hell no. Moderate yourself, and practice self control. Self control, and self discipline is key. Once we learn that, we can smoke all day and night and still be productive.

BTW, none of that was directed at the guy who created this thread. If that's what you feel it's gonna take for you to get on the up and up man... Then you do it.

Peace and good luck, :rastasmoke:

I really don't like the whole "anything can be addictive" mindset. That just sounds like a needless excuse. If you accept that everything is addictive, what does that make heroin? Super addictive? Extra addictive?

I guess I shouldn't spam up this thread with too much stuff, but hopefully you see the direction I'm taking.

Heroin is very, very physically addicting. Where as, let me use the gambling example again, can be very mentally addicting.

Meh, most sources I've read have said it's mentaly addictive but not physically. Try going through a simple 10mg SSRI withdrawal (These are prescribed in up to 50mg tablets) and you'll understand why I say pot isn't addicting.

Hey man GL with your issues.

Anyways, I guess if you can afford to buy so much weed you're doing ok financially? If so, then maybe just sit back, chillax and watch TV till you find your own job and move on. Maybe get addicted to a good video game (like wow takets up a lot of your time!) or get a fresh hobby.

also, sucks about your girl and your buddy... that was some shady stuff, but you are definitely better of NOT having people like that around

i was with a gal for over 3 years (she is actually on that Grease reality show now, weird) and found out she had screwed around with mad peeps... i was sure i was gonna marry her. obviously i didn't. i was messed up for a long time after that and was sure things would suck forever...

that was a handful of years back.. im married now and have never been happier or more fulfilled in life... so keep your head up, cause things will turn around for you if you don't give up... don't bottle that shit up inside either.. talk to someone about it... trust me, it helps!

good luck man...

Cheers for all the help guys. The general concensus is that if im keeping busy then it'll be easy. What if everything I do, i associate with smoking a spliff? I play a bit of keyboard, but i always smoke when im playing, im doing an english degree, but i always have a spliff with a book, etc etc. The thing is about smoking what I've got and then just not buying anymore, would be fine except for one thing..

I'm living back with my parents to save some money while im in uni. My parents smoke as much, if not more weed than I do. They've always got pot, and never go without. If i'm stuck, or craving, all i have to do is go downstairs and it's all there for me.

I think i'm just gonna try and keep it to the evenings and weekends. As long as i dont smoke before i go to uni i'll be fine doing this. Still off the fags though! As an update on my shitty shitty life at the moment. I spoke to her yesterday, and they've been an item since it happened (5 weeks ago) and they're 'in love' and already 'happier than she ever was in the 12 months we were together'... Although she didnt tell me that quite as coldly as i told you. I've gotta go back to uni tomorrow and spend all day every day around her for the next fucking year and a half! Grrr. I wont be quitting weed just yet methinks.. =S

Cheers for the help though. A vapouriser sounds like the way to go. Any idea where I can buy them online for delivery in the UK? I've never even seen one of these things..

Or just get drunk. Haha that always works.

I smoke fags when I'm drunk though.. lol. It really isnt as easy as all that. Maybe I just have an addictive personality..

i bought my vaporizer at www.vaporwarez.com for only $169 which would be like 90pounds or something in Brit (i think that is where you are from by 'mate' and 'uni'. i have buddies in southapton who talk like that)

i have the 3G handsfree vaporcannon kit and i love it! the bud tastes so much better through it. i got rid of my smokers cough. i cut back on the amount of weed i smoked cause you get more THC out of a hit. my wife is happy cause it doesnt stink up the house. and you can save the vaporized scraps (duff) to make oil or brownies or whatever. i love it!!!!!

this is the direct link to the one i bought:

and yes, it sounds like you have an very addictive personality... me too man!

Why would you want to quit smoking buds. It's the cigs that are ruining your singing voice, some singers choose pot to help with their voice. If your really think it's the buds, try glass or vape instead of paper.

Acctually weed is fairly easy to quit. I can stop for like a month or so and then start right back up again like nothing. after 3 days sober its easy to not smoke pot

Good advice. People depend on weed way too much.

how much do you smoke a day lip?

Well, for 4 years i was smoking exactly 7 grams a day. [I used to weigh up my rations in the morning before work lol]

But for the last, 4 or 5 months i've been smoking 10 grams, sometimes more, sometimes a little less. Really, it's ever since i fucked my back over, i've been smoking alot more.

But weed isnt my life. I buy everything i need to live first, i pay the bills, and i buy my weed last. Im lucky i get it cheap and grow it myself otherwise i wouldnt be able to afford it.

yeah, about your 'mate,' i've had a simmilar situation, thought i was gonna marry the girl too, even had a kid with her. and the friend she cheated on me with was GAY... what a 'fag.'

as far as the quitting weed thing, get a vape, that should be your best bet, no hurting the lungs, plus you won't be rolling 'baccy in with your spliffs any more, dunno if you do that, but i digress.

id agree with that
what helps me if i need to quit for an extended period of time (2 weeks plus)
is buy yourself something nice with the money you would spend on weed
