I've decided to quit smoking weed.

Some people here love their precious herb so much, it's insane.

You can't say anyhting negative about it or else your ass will be handed to you.

I've been smoking weed since I was 16, and I'm like the smartest person that graduated late from highschool. :dance:

my own personal policy towards quitting is very simple. don't do it, just make weed a reward. did you work hard today and finish all of your homework? smoke. smoke as much as you'd like, you're all set for tommorow. didn't do your homework yet? get working or else there will be no time to enjoy the high. also, you get a great feeling of accomplishment which always makes my highs a LOT better.

try it out, all you really need is the willpower to say "no smoking, i didn't get done what i needed to get done"

I read the first few posts and then skimmed, but there's a good rule that's pretty well known in at least my local tripping community that could apply to the sweet leaf as well: get high to live, don't live to get high. Like any other thing, weed should only be part of your life in ways that make your life overall better. Being high (or rolling, doing lines, tripping, etc.) can be great fun - so much fun that you lose interest in other activities because all you want to do is use your drug of choice. This is bad. I've had friends that have decided to quit or cut back on smoking because they felt that, while they still loved it, they were losing interest in everything else so they were still less happy overall. I've never had this problem with anything (yet) myself, so there's not much more I can say that would be of any use. Good luck.

i've found this to be REALLY effective. all you need is a little discipline.

wow, some of you guys are morons. i didn't even bother reading past the first 10 posts of this thread before i was sufficiently amazed. this whole idea that "smoking every day is bad for you" and "weed's making me stupid" is so flawed, it's absurd. maybe you guys just are idiots in the first place? i've been smoking for 3 years and doing psychadelics recreationally for 2, and never have i felt the urge to quit because i felt "stupider". in fact, drugs have often expanded my mind to new ways of thinking. i feel that the experiences i've had on drugs have only impacted me positively, as it should to all of you. getting high has become natural to me, but it still continues to impact my personality--I'm much more outgoing, open minded, and intelligent than i was before i smoked weed. if that's not how smoking ganj affects you guys, that's really sad. you shouldn't have been smoking it in the first place. it's not bud that's to blame, it's you guys. sorry.

Stupidest post yet^

Not everyone has brain chemistry like yours. I know people who have burnt out, quit, then got better. Wether they decide to toke again is up to them and it is THEIR fault for smoking and getting stupid. But how could you know how it's going to effect you in the long run? STFU, you twat.

I was just finishing a four-page rough draft, craving to get high, when I read this. I ended up smoking after reading it, and posting some bullshit about how George Washington discovered weed.

And then I decided not to quit. I'll use a version of your reward system that keeps me clear-headed, and requires more self-control. (Maybe it's just me, but I love setting limits for myself that are hard to meet.)

If throughout the school week I do well, with no missing or low grades, then come Friday, I get to smoke. Saturday as well, but not Sunday. This works particularly well this week since I have a very major test on Friday. As motivation to do extremely well, I won't allow myself to smoke unless I make at least a 95 on it. (I wouldn't get the graded test back by Monday, but I can simply count the number of questions I didn't know for a fact, subtract the value of those from 100, and call that my grade.)

try start smokeing the leaves, those which are not as potent the Cheap stuff, and maybe with a glass of wine and try to reduce the dosages daily. keep the good stuff for weekends and when you smoke hang out with friends. then during the week cheap smoke and wine.
it worked for me once when i was studying.
i think it is impossible to stop and cut everyting immediately.
