How not to get addicted..?
Okay, so Ive been smoking a little more than usual lately and I feel the need for marijuana more and more. I dont smoke an awful lot...maybe only 1-2 times a week at the most. I want some right now but I am fighting the temptation. How often do you guys smoke and how much marijuana would be responsible to consume at a time?

Dude, if you've got weed smoke it. simple as. I smoke all day, at the moment im growing too, but i buy 2 oz less than every week, i smoke about 10 grams a day.
Just smoke it.
If you have willpower you wont have to smoke it, it's not addictive, even if you have an addictive personality, there's no physical addiction.

LOL :D Oh, child, you gave me my first good laugh of the day. Pot is not physically addicting. Mentally, yes, it can be addictive. But if I said "I eat chocolate twice a week and I'm craving it now, but I'm fighting it! Am I addicted to chocolate?" You'd think I was absolutely nuts! Chocolate is more physically addicting than pot! Don't hassle it! I'm a legal medical user and I toke all day. One hour after I wake up, I'm toking (if I toke before my other meds cut in, I get little done- I'm just too zoned out until the thyroid pill cuts in). I use a vaporizer every few hours. The last thing I do before bed is to smoke a pipe. By the way, I work as a teacher's aide/private tutor and am old enough to be your granny! (No, I don't work stoned.) I've used cannabis for 40 years. :stoned: I graduated from college with honors (stoned most of the time after school). You would be suprised how many "straight" adults actually toke! A big "secret"- the hippies changed their clothes, but not their toking habits! We are doctors, educators, lawyers, business people and possibly your parents! You might want to keep your toking to the level you are at- http://www.cmaj.ca/cgi/content/abstract/166/7/887 :thumbsup: Keep your grades up! Don't get caught. And don't worry so much!-- Granny Storm Crow:stoned:

im addicted to caffine. damn mt dew. The line between smoking to much and still being respondsible is when you start bending your own ethics to obtain bud. Like stealing from your parents or robing somone of their bud. As long as you do not feel inhibited during work or school or life than smoke on. Just depends on the person.

Dude..do some research. Pot is nothing like crack or cigarettes. You dont start twitching and selling your moms T.V at the pawn shop to score another bag.

as everyone said weed is not physically addicting but it can be psychologically addicting especially when u make ur priorities getting high.. i smoked everyday for the last 6 months but last week i missed 2 days due to being around family nd its not as bad as i thought it would be.

Is this a joke? 1-2 times a week is nothing, thats laughable compared to any definition of "addiction".

Be nice, guys and gals. He's, what, 13? And he's had to sit through the DARE show how many times? Those programs rot your mind, make you think irrationally about our healing herb. Give him 6 months of toking and he'll be fine. Don't let them get you down, kid! They really are fairly nice people.

Dare programs actually proved to end up with higher rates of drug related crime than the areas without it around here. They finally did away with it though. Whats sad is, the same officers doing the DARE programs were actually catching the same kids they "tought" in the program with weed.

How not to get addicted..?
I never said anywhere in my post that I was addicted to cannabis or starting too for that matter. All I clearly stated was that I am just having a temptation to take some for the ''High'' since sometimes I experience some really nice ones and sometimes some really shitty ones. And by the way I am 17. Anyways point is lets not take this seriously I was just asking for some advice thats all. No need to get all hyped up about it.
Cheers, :)

The title of your post was, "how not to get addicted." So that is why every one responded to weed not being addictive.
So yeah, smoke as much as you like assuming your grades and stuff don't suffer.

How not to get addicted..?
i go to school full time monday-thursday and then friday, saturday and sunday i toke up. am i an addict? no hardly, but that doesnt mean i dont think about weed everyday! even if its just talking to my friends about how much i enjoyed saturdays night king sized joint. i may not smoke mon-thurs, but i sure as hell think about weed and glassware and high times all the time. so i mean think for yourself bro....a couple times a day is well worth in the "responsible" amount. now if your smoking everyday, and go through about 7 grams a day (and you arent in constant pain like some are) then you may want to think about chillin out a little bit.

Just limit it to one to two joints or bowls a day. And exercise. Do what ever can take your mind off of getting high. I'm on a break now doing things like this and I'm doing fine staying sober until Christmas break..

Yeah, also noticing the difference in how my head operates from after being under the spell of THC (lol) and being clear is like, a fresh start. It also helps to keep me motivated on my break until later. I honestly feel better and I know my high will be way better on Friday and more clear, I'm also motivated because of that.
-
How not to get addicted..?
Yeah your right. I mean 1-2 times a week is nothing compared to some people on these boards. When I do smoke though, my tolerance is really low so I just need 2-3 maybe 4 hits max and I am high. Really fun... :)

Yeah, for the first time I felt the difference in between how I wanted it when I was constantly high and how I wanted it when I was sober. I finally realized I didn't really need it, I just wanted to get high. That's why it was hard to quit lol.
-
How not to get addicted..?
XD exactly my point!
I just want to get high.
its fun.

Smoke as much as you can without interfering with things you need to do.
But most things can be done while high... cleaning the house, walking the dog, menial jobs... but if you're a cardiologist then I might say refrain for about eight hours before doing open-heart surgery...
I have a day job where I need to be sober, so I smoke 1-3 bowls/night when I feel like it. No need to limit yourself unless you can't afford it financially.

Hey Whacker
I have a friend who must smoke about 10-12 cones (bongs) daily and has done since he was about 18. He ihas just turned 33! Sure his brain is fried in a certain way but he is a muso. Its all up to you. If you have weed laying about the house and you wanna smoke get to it. Youll just fall asleep easier and the dishes wont get done...:thumbsup:

I think what people fail to realize is that smoking one joint is like drinking 6 beers except minus the brain/liver damage and unwanted hookups.

Marijuana isn't as benine as most people would have you believe. It can ruin your life if you don't use responsibly. Even 1-2 times a week is a start if you start using it to get by, or to kill every ounce of boredom you have every time.
I love herb. Probably always will. But I've seen it fuck up a lot of people's lives because they let it make them content with the shittyness surrounding their lives; as long as they have herb they don't care, and that's no way to live. Use responsibly, have fun, and you'll be fine =)

I agree. I dont think toking 1-3 times a week is going to cause you problems if you smoke responsibly. But people arent responsible. People are dumb and smoke every day and then get mad at you giving examples of just how fine they are. But they arent trying to convince you they're fine, they're trying to convince themselves.

But a different way of looking at that.. is that marijuana isnt influencing that type of lifestyle. That type of lifestyle usually leads to smoking marijuana as an alternative to those who have nothing else that excites them. Marijuana is so commonly used that a great number of users go on to live a successful lives, but while a large number do not lead successful lives.. the results would be the same with or without the existence of weed.

Nah, they fucked up their own lives. If it wasn't weed it would have been something else. Saying weed screwed up your life is basically admitting you are a weak person - all IMHO of course ;)

you can smoke it when you want lol, but i only get an 1/8 once every month because then i keep low tolerence and appreciate the experience of being high so much more. I keep weed as like a well earned prize for my month of fuking work. Plus you get more out of it if your low tolerence. - Though when a harvest comes i smoke like crazy lol
