    Quitting Marijuana

    I've quit multiple times cold turkey (to pass piss tests) and had no problem, except being pretty bored. Just try to keep yourself busy during the week, with school work or your band, and you should be fine.

    It seemed to me like you tried to stop smoking while you still have pot in your posession. Smoke all your shit up and then try and remove anything and everything that has to do with bud from your life. If your not looking/around it all the time you might not crave it.

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.

    Safe

    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.

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:
    Nicely said imo

    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...

    Damn what a story. Well fortunately for you quiting weed is alot easier thain it sounds. I can go months without blazin and then go months bein blazed out of my mind. Just find a hobby to occupy your time. Such as your band. Or just get drunk. Haha that always works. Well good luck with quiting.
