put urself in a drug awairness program and u will hear and learn alot of things that will deffinitally help u. and that way u can come and go at ur free will and its not a quart order. i know kids that were forced to go and still say they got alot out of it.
i think eveybody should take control of ther eown minds and bodies, it will make u feel so mutch better about urself and knowing u can ovwercome things and that ur life is in ur own hands.
if it's just weed you want to stop using there should be no problem just stop if it's something along the lines of stimulants IE: COKE CRANK ect. you will prob need some help if it's opiates [ heroin percocett that kinda thing] you will need to ween your self off of them a methadone detox program might be helpful if it is benzo's [ valium / xanax] you will also have to ween your self off stopping benzo's outright after an extended period of use can be very dangerous there are other alternative ways of stopping stimulants and opiates IBOGAINE has been used in holland for treating addicts for some time now it is illeagal in the US but there are a couple clinics in the states that have found a way around the law it is aval in canada and there is a clinic in mexico hope this will help some and i hope you can accomplish what your setting out to do good luck
ezjim's got the right idea. Weed is easy enough to quit.
Best thing i've found to do is find something that'll keep you preoccupied. Try coffee, gum, lots of sex..... Find something you want really bad, like a new TV or something and start saving your money for that. Don't take any money out with you that you might use to buy drugs.
your right dude that money thing wil get ya every time if you see and you can afford it more than likely you will do itQuote:

Out of curiosity what drugs are you doing that you're quitting? Good luck with it, whatever they are.
and why would u WANT to quit? or is it something u have to do? and not to be a dick but u people that say that u can just stop weed.........how? they say it isnt addicting but idk.......if im sober for more than a day then i get cranky and get the urge to smoke real soon and if i dont i get really cranky, if im not high for a few days i start to get bored unless im constantly busy. but who the fuck can stay constantly busy? i dont got to worry tho, i have plenty of money and those stupid fuckin pigs will never catch me.
u shoudl rlly say wat drugs ur quitting
good luck hope things work out for yaQuote:

weed is only addicting if u have a dont have a strong will...
weed isnt a drug, its a herb lol
Weed can be phsycologically addicting just like any other drug (or anything for that matter). It is a greater risk for people who have addictive personalities.

Tru dat. Anything that stimulates pleasure sensations in the brain is addicting. How addicting is SEX ?? Excercise is also addicting.Quote:

To bongo:
Please let us know what drugs it is that you currently use, and which you are trying to stop. You obviously have your reasons, so I won't hound you on why are stopping...
Yeah, only at a place like this would people be telling you NOT to quit taking drugs.
And as for weed being phsyically addictive, that just hasn't been proven anywhere. The opposite has been proven. People can psychosomatically create physical side effects, though. When I get stressed I get an upset stomach and usually end the day with a good puke. It's not like I have ulcers or anything, it's just the psychological factor.
cannibis is not physically addictive the only drugs that have a physical addiction are opiates i think you might have ment phycologicly addictive a physicall addiction means your body is dependent on the substance and must have it to keep from getting ill you should not get your info from the ondcp or dare they are lying to youQuote:

Oh damn, that's not good. I eat lots of spicey food too. Haha thanks for the heads up.
Weed,cigarettes,alcohol,pills,and acid. Those are the only ones that i make a point of doing, but not anymoreQuote:

Word man. Everyone should try and quit smoking for a week to see what happens when you quit.Quote:

So, a psychological addiction could be really hard to kick. But I'm not a quitter. :cool:Quote:
